Boston, Jan. THE case of Cham
berlain vs. Woodbury., about which so
much has been printed, came up In
court here yesterday. Frederick d.
Chamberlain Of Spokane. Wash, is
suing K. Frank Woodbury. and jose
phine c. Woodbury. for $25, 900 damages,
alleging that the defendants were the
cause of alternating his (Chamberlain's)
wife's affections. The Woodburys are
Christian scientists, and Mrs. Cham
berlain Is q convert to that belief. In
court Mrs. Chamberlain said the cause
OF estrangement between her husband
and herself was not her religious be-
lief. but financial matters were the real
reason. She paid her husbands bills
until she tired of the constant drain
and then left him. He then charged
the Woodburys with influencing her.
All the people involved are wealthy and
hold good positions in society.

Tonnage Tax on German Vessels.
Boston. Jan. 1.-THE first steamer to
enter this port subject to the tonnage
tax. which went into effect on Jan. 1. by
proclamation Of President Cleveland
was the Hamburg American steamer
Cheruskia. Captain Schlaeker. which ar
rived Monday from Hamburg. The tax
iS 8 cents per ton. figured OH the net ton
mage Of the steamer. until 30 cents has
been paid in one year. This, of course,
would permit the steamer free Of this
tax after her NTH passage In one year.
The net tonnage Of the Cheruskia Is 2097,
making her tax $126.s2 BY the treaty OF
or 10 years ago, this tax on vessels

Berlin government was carrying out the
contract, some Of the ports in Germany
were imposing tax which amounted to
the same thing as the tonnage tax.

10 COMPLETE VIADUC7.
Street and Water Board Opens
Bids Henry Byrne the
Lowest and Will Get
the Contract.

The Street and Water Commissioners
held only a short session yesterday after
noon. They met first to hear remon-
~stranoes, If any, against several improve
ments which have been started. To the
proposed construction Of a sewer in
Walker avenue there were no objections.
George w. Heritage, of No. 12o North
street, protested against the proposed
Improvement of Central avenue. His
chief objection was that he was unable
to hear or understand what the clerk
read. Mr.. Bouton is a very fast reader.
He explained to Mr.. Heritage that he
would be notified when to appear before
the Board and file his objections to the
Improvement.
Bid were finally received for the i'm
provement of the approach to the Mercer
street viaduct, for which wheelmen and
drivers of light carriages AVE been clam
oring so long. The Street and Water
Commissioners wanted to make the i'm
provement many weeks ago, but they
were unable to get enough money from
the Finance Commissioners until Mayor
Hoos took UP the subject and insisted
that the improvement be made. The
bidders for the work were Reehill & Ed
wards, M. r. Van keuren, James J. Har-
rington and Henry Byrne. Byrne was
the lowest bidder and the contract will
be awarded to him at the next meeting
of the Board. The approach will be OF
macadam. That will be maintained only
until such time as it settles sufficiently
to warrant being covered with asphalt.
The macadam is to be well laid and
will ave a bountiful top dressing, SO
that there will be a smooth surfaced
roadway from the ferry to the top of
the viaduct at least.
That section of Church street, now
either unpaved or paved with blocks, is
to be repaved with asphalt as soon as
there is money to pay for the work.
When that section is finished there will
be a smooth roadway to the Boulevard
from the ferry.
Complaint vas made to the Board thai
Zabriskie street, recently paved, has beer
torn up by heavy trucking. The prop
erty owners ask that repairs be made
at once. Protests were also filed against
the condition of sewers in Garfield, Mon
ticello, Skillman and st. Paul's avenues
Specifications submitted by Engineer
ugg for the construction of a sewer
in Bergen avenue; Improvement of CLERK
street; Crescent avenue, and Orient ave-
nue. were adopted.
Property owners on Newark avenue
Warren and Sussex streets were ordered
to repair their sidewalks. The Board
Will meet again next Tuesday, Monday
being a holiday.

TRAINING OF VARSITY CREWS.
English and American systems Con
frasted.

Look at the two systems of training and
then consider the climate along the
Thames and along Long Island Sound.
The American system of training, which
is very generally in vogue among the col
leges in the northwestern portion of the
United States, is to row all through the
winter indoors in tanks, to run after prae-
tice, and end up the days labor by going
through a drill with pulley weights. In
the early spring as soon as the rivers
are open, the men. get into their boats
and row in the afternoon six days in the
week, practising in pair oars in the
morning. Towards the early days of June
the crews go to New London or Pough-
keepsie and do nothing but row for three
weeks. The eight go out in the morning
and in the afternoon, pair cared work be-
ing slipped in between times. This con
tinues without respite, except on Sun
days, till two or three days before the.
race. The food during this time is hearty;
and variety, within certain limits, is al
lowed. Drinking is confined to water in
small quantities and to milk, with an oc-
casional bottle of ale for dinner
In England the coaching for crews is so
different that little or no comparison is
possible. The Varsity crews of oxford
and Cambridge are not chosen until after
the college boat races in December. hen
the Varsity boats are made up of the
best men in the college Fights, and they
are trained. six weeks at Henley. There
is little or no competition for places in
the boat, and each man comes to his
place an already accomplished oarsman,
well taught in the one stroke used in Eng
land. He has nothing new to learn. He
needs merely to get in with the other
seven. With us many a man rows the
first time when he sits in a Varsity boat,
and he must, therefore, be actually
crews, and they perhaps have to unlearn
the stroke in order to pick up the new,
taught by the Varsity coach. The ele-
ment of instruction is, therefore, one
present in our boat as well as that OF
team work; whereas in England the time
is devoted solely to perfectlng an alreaay
well known stroke. I h Henley crews are
made Zip after the Varsity races, and the
training is confined to q few short weeks
on the course. Their climate is such that
they can row out-of-doors all the year
round if they choose to, and hence gym
naseurns are practically IN Eng
land The business OF getting into ond1-
ton, ID not a feature of their work.
They row continually and the training IS
merely the work Of a coach IN making
EIGHT of them row together. From time
to time, during the weeks when the crews
are training at Henley, they are taken
away from the Thames, n sent on a
trip to Brighton, ON the sEnglsn ohaliaei,
who're saturday and Sunday are spent
away from rowing, and IN q dliferent at
