We know that Cod-liver
Oil is a fat-forming food
because takers of it gain rap
idly in weight under its use
and the whole body receives
vital force. When prepared
as in Scott's Emulsion, it is
quickly and easily changed
into the tissues Of the body.
As your doctor would say,
sit is easily aSSimilated."
Perhaps you are suffering
from fat starvation. You
take fat enough with your
food, but it either isn't the
right kind, or it isn't digeSted.
You need fat prepared for
you, as in Scott'S Emulsion.

If Harvard Insists, Columbia and
Pennsylvania Crews VIII BE
Admitted to the Race.

ITHACA, N. Y, Feb. 17.-By unani-
nous vote this afternoon, the athletic
council of Cornell agreed to allow Yale
to enter CornelPs race with Harvard.
By so doing, Cornell makes possible
one of the greatest aquatic events that
could be arranged, a race between the
five great rowing universities Of the
country-Cornell, Harvard, Columbia,
Pennsylvania and Yale. The action
taken today was the outcome of com
munication received by the Cornell
men from Harvard, asking that Yale
might be admitted. In return for this
concession on the part of Cornell. Cor
nell asks that Columbia and Pennsyl-
vania be also admitted, and it is alto
gether likely in view Of the sportsman
like manner in which Cornell has an
sWered Harvard's request that the
quintrangular race can be arranged.
Immediately upon receiving Har-
wards communication a meeting of the
athletic council was called and Har-
wards request given consideration The
rowing committee submitted the fol-
lowing statement to the council: eve
are in receipt of a communication from
the Harvard Boat club requesting that
we admit Yale to the Harvard-Cornell
race this year. We cordially accent
this proposition and proffer a counter
request that the universities of Penn
sylvania and Columbia be admitted
to the same race. If such arrange
ment is made the date, July 2, or June
20. will be acceptable to Cornell for
the race"
This statement was received with
enthusiasm and a vote was taken
which resulted in it's unanimous adop-
ton as resolution.
Commodore MOrdock was seen i'm
medfately after the meeting He said:
I'VE have taken this action because
we thought it most sportsmanlike. We
have requested along with our &C
ceptance that Columbia and Pennsyl-
Vanta be admitted. and Cornell still
hopes that the quintrangular race may
be arranged. We have done, we think.
all that could be asked Of us and now
stand back and await Harvard's and
Yale's reply, with the wish that they
join with us In the five cornered con-
test"
Capt Spillman, in answer to the
question as to whether Cornell would
row other races, said: THAT is a ques-
ton. We certainly hope Columbia and
Pennsylvania will be allowed to enter,
but Capt. Goodrich, who has brought
Harvard's communication to us and
who carries ours back, could give no
assurance that Harvard would change
her attitude and admit the other two
crews. This is not strange, as athletics
are so tied UP at Harvard"
Coach Courtney is pleased with the
acceptance, but he refused to speak
1t is certain that Cornell will row
Columbia and Pennsylvania in
separate race should Harvard and Yale
refuse to act with CornelPs request.

Martin Julian ventured out in a
sleigh on a visit to Steamboat Springs
and other possibilities in the way Of
training quarters for Fitzsimmons.
Corbett, after visiting his training
grounds, went to the opera house and
commenced training for an hour or
two. First he wrestled with McVey
fifty minutes and did some rapid work
with his brother Joe, and then spared
fifteen rounds with Billy Woods. He
then went to lunch and consumed
enough to last an ordinary man

GAME CONTEST.
Haley Put Ont by Dave Sullivan in
Thirteen Rounds.

NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-One Of the hardest
and gamest fights ever seen in a ring, took
place this evening at the Polo Athletic club.
The contestants were Dave Sullivan of Bos-
ton, and Patsy Haley, of Buffalo. They met
for twenty-fve-round encounter at lis
pounds. Both had trained carefully and were
as fit as fiddles when they began operations.
Haley at one time looked like sure winner,
but 1t was only for a brief interval, as Sulli-
van fought like a bull and was a glutton for
punishment. His arms worked like fails dur
ing the twelfth and thirteenth rounds, and
Haley was unable to withstand the assaults
made on him. The unlucky thirteenth round
Suliivan's swings, the first time only saving
himself by a seOoG& in getting to his feet
The second time he went down he lay close
to his corner on the ropes and was unable
to get up before the referee had counted him
out
There were about 5000 people present and
they were perfectly satisfied at having seen
the fastest and hardest battle that ever took
place between bantam boxers in a ring
