CORNELL's REPLY.

Prorress of intercollegiate Rowing
Negotiations.
A representative of the Cornell Univer
sity navy is quoted as saying, regarding
the reply to Yale's challenge for an eight
cared four-mile race next year:
yale suggested a willingness, IL Har-
ward consented, to merge the two dual
races in one triangular contest The an
swer expressed the qualification of the
Cornell navy at the receipt of the PROPOSE
ton from Yale and stated that the Cornell
navy will have great pleasure in accepting
it, provided such arrangements of place and
time are made as will insure a fair and
complete test, and will enable Cornell also
to satisfy the just claims of other COM
petitors who have met her in former years.
and may now wish to meet her again.
1T will be observed that in her chal-
lenge Yale presumes to name both the
time and place for the proposed race. 1t
may be said on good authority that it has
always been Cornell's policy to wish 10
arrange to meet all corners. and this policy
will be adhered to this year.
THE course which In former years has
been considered by the wearers of the blue
to be too narrow for q triangular race is
now offered as the meeting ground for the
known here whether or not Harvard has
agreed to the conference proposed by Cor
nell, and no arrangements have as yet been
made for the meeting"
Capt. Payne Whitney of the Yale crew
says that word has been sent to Harvard
relative to the receipt of Cornells chal-
lenge and asking for a date to be named by
Harvard when representatives Of the uni
versities can meet for q conference Har-
wards answer has not yet been received at
Yale.
There has been no decision at Harvard
regarding the proposition of Yale for q race
with Harvard and Cornell at New London
next summer. Capt. Goodrich of the Har-
ward University crew, while anxious to
meet Cornell in q boat race, has grave
doubts of the practfcability Of the proposal
for triangular contest on the Thames.
There Is a strip Of about a hundred feet
of good water at New London, and, while
this Is ample for a dual race, Capt. Good
crews. There Is no question that the Har-
ward Yale race will be al New London, but
1t II probable that harvard will decline to

SCHAEFER BEATS IVES.

The Balls Would Not Run for the
Champion.
Jake Schaefer played billiards in his
old-time form at New York last night and
| won victory over Champion Ives
schaefer apparently was in grand shape
Tor after some lively round the table and
one cushion work he gathered the balls
| on the lower baik on his fifteenth shot of
this inning. and by some wonderfully deli
| cate manipulation ran 56 before he failed
on an easy cushion shot. Ives claimed that
Schaefer did not drive the balls out of

but the referee did not allow the cham
DiOn's claim.
pion. and they kept either lining up or
kissing him out OF every attempt at posi-
ton. Schaefer drew still further ahead
with run of thirty-four in the thirteenth
| inning, which raised his average to II
21-3p.
Schaefer continued to draw away and
| finally won the game by 81 points in the
| thirty-third inning

The game in the afternoon brought out
Maurice DAILY and George Sutton, both of
| whom up to date had lost all their games.
| DAILY won the match by 800 TO BIZ. There
| was considerable interest manifested in
this exhibition by the spectators, owing to
| the fact that the losing man would occupy
last position in the tournament at the close.
| Sutton at times put up brilliant game,
1 but. as IN his previous exhibitions during
| the present series, in a general way he
| was very erratic.
| The same might be said of DAILY, al
though he made of the best runs of

around the table. on the lines and in the

game. including half dozen masses

A Unique Ornament,

Out of a Broadway store there stennod
lately tall, dignified, gray haired
woman. She started down town and
stopping to look in the shop windows
Immediately became the object of a very
lively interest on the part of the women
around her. They first stared at her on.
riously and then smiled. The woman
who approached her noticed nothing no.
yond the fact that she was a handsome
we'll dressed woman and attending n
her own affairs. But the people back Of
her were smiling, and not all of them
could explain the cause of the peculiar
sight which excited their merriment Tn
the back of the woman's hair was
comb, and attached to this was a large
spider web of green silk In the center
Of the web was red velvet spider. The
thing must have measured six inches in
diameter, but it was light enough to
hang readily on her comb. People who
saw her at Il distance from the store ont
of which she had come had no idea how
such decoration could have got Oh her
head.
Her complete unconsciousness showed
that she was quite unaware of its pres.
ence, and as most of the smiles were be-
hind her back she also failed to see
them. The people who saw her come
out of the store explained the curious
sight to their satisfaction. The shop is
devoted to the sale of Oriental goods,
and many articles such as this staid
looking woman had on her head are dis.
played for sale hung on wires stretched
about the store. 1t was from one of these
that she got her green silk spider web
and red velvet spider. Nobody volun-
teered to remind her of its presence Or
ask if it was meant to be there. So she
continued her walk decorated with the

A Scotch weekly paper named Saint
Mungo tells of the costume of some Of
the gentry who may be seen walking
upon the fashionable streets of Edin-
burgh. One citizen is described as fol
lows: Mr.. Theodore Napier is well
known figure in Edinburgh. He walks
along Princes street in kilt of royal
Stewart OF Lennox tartan and usually
has red coat with dark vest, over the
front Of which he wears an embroidered
belt of scarlet silk instead of plain
leather. He is gorgeous with dirks
skene dhus, sporrans and other orna
ments, and he lets his hair fall to bis
shoulders under bonnet that is a cros
between Glengary and Balmoral and
trimmed with feathers
The burgher who strides along Princes
street, bearing these accouterments, is
not crank. He is level headed, well
composed, thoughtful and wealthy gen.
tleman, standing high in Edinburgh So
ciety. Suppose that a man thus apparel
ed and caparisoned were to walk along
our streetsl What time there would
be! Within the past few years, or since
the introduction of bicycling, golfng
and other funny sports, some of the men
and women in American cities wear
costumes the like of which were not to
be seen in the old times. But for all
that we doubt whether Mr. Theodore
Napier of Edinburgh would greatly Ell,
joy life in this country if he appeared
in the public street in the fixtures de-
scribed by Saint Mungo.
