HENLEY REGATTA TO-DAY.
No Eeasy Matter to Pick the Winners of
Various Races.

Henley-on-the-T Thames, July 13.-Any'
thlng like a forecast of the winners
during the three days racing which be-
gins tomorrow wo uld be exceedingly
di1fcult, for the races are the most open
III the matter of entries that have been
planned here for years. Professional
oarsmen, however, are firm believers that
DIR. Mcdowell of the Delaware Boat club
OF Chicago, is very dangerous COM
petitor. He is very much altered in form
Tor the better, is somewhat lighter and
Will row at 166 pounds. DR.. Mcdowell
said this morning:
y am very well, in fact I never felt
better in my life. am confident that 1
gave away last years race with Belmont
But do not think he will reach the finals
put II meet him | expect to defeat him.
Some of the sporting critics pretend not
10 like my form, but they must admit
That the boat travels. Personally, think
the Winnipegs will win in the Stewards
challenge cup race and expect to see
New College defeat Lander. Whatever
happens, | do not think the Dutchmen
will VIM
The Hon. E. Az Guinness of the
Thames Rowing club. who meets Nc
lowell in the first round said this morn
ing: II think Mcdowell is in much
better form than in 1895, but l mean to
give him hard row.
len Eyck of the Massachusetts Boat
club OF Worcester Mass, who rows at 1862
pounds, has many admirers. Mr.. Lehman
is among the most ardent of them, pre-
dieting that he will be q great oarsman.
Mr.. Ten Eyck said today: II am in ex-
cellent condition and like my boat i'm
mensely."
James Ten Eyck, his father, said !:
Some of the English think am trying
to conceal the boy s abilities. This is alb
solutely untrue. He rowed the course
yesterday after six in the evening because
it is practically impossible to get clear
path. l told everybody the exact time he
did SO far as l can judge. He is rowing
quite up to his best American FORM
The Winnipegs are quietly confident.
All say they are in excellent health and
satisfied with their training and if they
are defeated it will be by better men.

Mail Carriers Story of Abundance OF
Gold on the KIondike.

Seattle, Wash, July 13.-Jack Carr,
mail carrier between Juneau and Yukon,
has arrived in Seattle on the steamer
Topeka: bringing Klondike news to June
5. He made the trip to the coast in less
than 80 days. He reports Cirpcile City
and Forty. Mile, which had over 5000 peo-
pie, to be nearly deserted, two-thirds hav
ing gone to the Klondike diggins in one
stampede. There are now over 40r0
men at the new mines, 1000 of whom
passed over the summit this spring.
He reports that great fortunes are be-
ing made, and that gold dust, which is
the currency of the country, is as COM
mon as sawdust. One piece of ground on
Eldorado creek, As feet wide, has produced
$50, O0O
Two 'stenderfeet'' from Chicago, named
Wier and Beecher, leased piece of
ground for go days, paid royalty of
$1,000 and divided $40 600. The miners
miles, and at that distance there are sew
eral claims that will produce II, 900, 600
apiece.
4. The Berry claim on Bonanza creek
has cleaned up $145 600 in few months.
An adjoining claim produced an ounce
of gold to the shovel every minute. White
wages are SIS a day in the mines and the
men can board themselves for SO a day.
Men who have not $500 in their wallets
consider themselves 'sbusted." Five thou
sand gallons of whiskey had arrived at
the diggings, and as much more was en-
route, so that livelier times are antlcipat-
ed.
: Carr will return on July rs, taking his
wife and children with him. He antici-
pates making the greater part of the
80 DAYS from Juneau with little or no
hardship. The stampede from the Juneau
and eastern Alaska camps still continues,
and the Klondike fever is extending to
all the Puget sound towns

ton TO Faculty.
An adjourned meeting OF the trustees
of the Maine Wesleyan Seminary and
Female College of Kent's Hill was held
at the office of Locke & Locke in this city
Tuesday afternoon. A large number of
the board was present and much impor-
tant business transacted.
The treasurer's report showed that the
mast wear had been the most successful
financially for many years. A small
margin remained after paying expenses,
and by generous contributions of friends of
the school the floating debt has been re-
duced nearly $4,000.
The following resolution was passed
by unanimous rising vote, as testifying
to the confidence felt by the board for the
newly elected president, DR. A. F. Chase
Resolved, That we extend our cordial
greeting to the incoming president, and
assure him OF our hearty support in the
Inauguration of progressive policy for
the school.
President Chase responded with few
well chosen remarks, assuring the board
of his deep interest in the school which
was SO full of sacred memories for him.
If hard work, backed up by the best and
most scientific training will accomplish
anything DR.. Chase will place Kent's
Hill in more advanced position than
the school has occupied for years.
The faculty was strengthened by the
election of Allen Chase, A. B., son of
the president, to the chair of mathema-
tics and military tactics. Mr.. Chase
graduated in 1896 from Ohio Wesleyan
University with the highest honcrs. Dur
ing his whole course he excelled in all
departments, but showed extraordinary
ability in mathematics. He has enjoyed
special advantages in engineering and
surveying, and in military tactis his
proficiency is such that he has recognit-
ion in the Army Register at Washing

Yesterday afternoon complaint was
made to the police that William Bell had
committed an assault on a man on Chat
ham street. The police were looking for
Bell all the afternoon, but were unable to
find him. About half past nine O'Clock
Officers Foss and Moore went to Bell s
house to arrest him. His brother was
also wanted for the charge or as a wit
ness, but he had time to get out of the
house before the officers could get inside.
The brother escaped with only pair of
pants on and so great was his hurry that
he did not stop to put on the rest of his
clothes. William Bell was arrested and
taken to the police station. He will be ar
raigned this morning before Judge Rob.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
McCullum's Theatre.

BARLEY McCullum's production OF
Edwin Milton Royle's military drama,
"Jovita" is creating sensation at the
Peaks Island theatre this week. AS a
play "Jovita" is one Of the most interest
ing dramas Mr.. McCullum has given us
and this production, in every respect, is
a climax in a long list of successes. Mr..
Charles BROKER designed and painted
the scenery and he is receiving many com
pliments for his artistic work. Mr.. Nc
Cullum is to be congratulated on having
such an able scenic artist. Helene
Robertson, in the title roll of "Jovita, y
is doing the best work of her life, SO far
as we are able to judge. She has made a
decided hit and deserves all the praise she
has received. Mr.. McCullum, Mr.. Pascoe,
Mr.. Livingston, Mr.. Budgeland, Miss
Winter and Miss Ingram all have good
parts in "Jovita" and it is needless to
say, they are making the most of their
opportunities.
This great production should not only
fill McCullum's theatre every afternoon
and evening this week but it should and
doubtless will it turn thousands of people
away before the week is over.
