The observation train, which ran op-
posite to the crews during the race. pre-
sented one Of the most unique spec
tacles ever seen in this country. AS the
train Of SO cars forming moving grand
stand over half Q mile in length, crept
along the bank with its thousands of
pretty costumes and prettier faces, II
presented sight never to be forgotten.
The partisanship of the train load of
enthusiasts was not confined to any
particular section, and the enthusiasm
was pretty evenly divided over its entire
length.
1t required two locomotives to move
this load of living freight. A fine fea-
ture OF the train was the facilities that
II afforded the newspaper men to report
the race. The press car, which was in
the very middle of the train, was kept
opposite to the leading crew through
out the race. The original price of seats
In the observation train was 81, but so
great was the demand that tickets get
ting into the hands Of SPECTATORS sold
from SO to $40.
II was q singular coincidence that the
English trained crew, Harvard. pur-
sued exactly the same method as to the
number Of strokes per minute as did
the winning crew, and although they
weighed an average Of 10 pounds beav-
Ter than Cornell's men, that extra weight
told for nothing. and either from too
much Oneness" in training or lack OF

II n also curious 20 note that Cornell
pulled exactly the same kind Of stroke
and the same number OF strokes to the

she won In record-breaking time, and
that Harvard, while advertising that
she had entirely new methods, was de-
feated IN exactly the same manner that
defeat met her last year.
Briefly. tho result OF the race is that
Cornell asserts her superiority In row

NEW BEDFORD, June 26.-The Paw

and effective playing, the only error being
by whiting. Day was on the rubber for
New Bedford and touched up rather lively,
especially In the third and Afth innings.
Smith, Beaumont and Weisbecker did
about all Of the batting for the Paw
tuckets. Moss contributed home run.
Knorr presided for the Pawtuckets and
after the first inning settled down and
pitched heady and effective game. In
the initial period the locals lighted on
him for four runs, bnt after that his work
on the rubber was all that could be desired.
The home team made squirt in the
ninth inning, and but for two catches by
Weisbecker of long flies might have won

and none on bases, Collins made hit
and then Hoffer went completely to

Tenney, after two strikes had been called
on him. made hit to right field, driv-

immense crowd went wild, and Tenney
