ROSS ON ROWING.
lie Says He Knows Lehmann's Methods
Are Wrong.

F7tO VsIOTSs
Boston. Jan. S.-Wallace Ross, the
well-known oarsman. came here today
for short time. In an interview with
the Herald reporter. he describes the
English and American style Of rowing
and Workmanship, and has this to say
of Mr.. Lehman, the Harvard coach:
There is not a thing in the rowing
line in English boats which is not cop
led from American boats. The style
of rowing taught by Mr.. Lehman at
Harvard is not the exact English
style. Any sensible man who knows
anything about rowing will not allow a
sculler or any oarsman to have a pause
at any part of his stroke. Yale and
Harvard crews last year had distinct
pause at the catch and finish of every
stroke, so much so that it was notice.
able to those along the river bank"
In reply to a question as to Mr.. Leh-
manns chances this year, Mr.. Ross
said: IF he uses the same rigging and
style of rowing which he used last year,
1t won't be case of who wins, but it
will be matter of by how much Cor
nell Will win. | know that Mr.. Deh-
mann's methods are wrong"
Mr.. Ross condemns the swinging back
style at Harvard, and says it is only
good for short distance AS to Yale's
chances with John A. Kennedy as a
coach, Mr.. Ross says he looks for big
improvement. He believes that Cornell
should have the naming Of course on
reasonable neutral waters, and suggests
Saratoga Lake as the place. On the
showing of the Yale and Cornell crews
at Henley, Mr.. Ross says that the
Americans did not meet college crews
like themselves, but veteran oarsmen
picked from all Britain.

ton will be directed to the scenery of the
Shenandoah valley and an accurate re-
production is promised. The City

Sturbrldge. Jan. a.-The large hall Of
the Worcester South Agricultural Soci-
ETY., at Sturbridge, was burned to the
ground at about y o'clock tonight, en-
failing loss of about $4,000; insured for
$780,
The fire was discovered by Stanley

peared to be burning ON the west side

have burned up from the basement.
The alarm was given and the towns
people did efficient work in saving the
surrounding buildings. The house of
Thomas Mccarthy which stands close
by, was on fire several times, but, by
dint of hard work, escaped the flames.
The building was a three-story wood
en- structure, in excellent repairs, and
was considered one Of the finest build

chore who, with outside friends, are
allowed to indulge in their fancy
The chief objection to athletic meets
In an armory is that the runners would
cut UP the floor with their spikes, yet
for some time, and as late as last win
ter. athletic meets have been held in the
East Newton street armory in Boston.
In this city it was thought at one time
last year that the City Guards would
succeed in getting permission to run an
athletic meet but the company was dis
appointed, and none was held. If this
company, which takes greater interest
in athletics than any other, would re-
ceive the sanction to hold meet. 1t
would gladly go to the expense of fitting
up track and a straightaway for the
runners and sprinters so that the floor
would not be harmed in the least. There
is no other place in the city that would
accommodate an athletic meet, and the
followers of the sport in the city would
gladly welcome the return of the sport
and literally patronize games.
The season of socials is on in its full
ness and every company in the armory,
with the exception of the Emmett
Guards, has held at least one social or
ball there this winter The Emmets have
appointed committee to arrange for an
assembly, and 1t will be held in a short
time The Light Infantry has held two
socials, and will give its third Wednes-
day, Jan. e. The 1nfantrys night at the
armory is always Tuesday, but for this
social Lieut. Haynes of Battery B has
exchanged evenings, and will give the
Infantry Wednesday, while he will drill
his command on the evening previous.
The Infantry's own orchestra will fur
nish music for the affair, and this part
OF the social promises to be one of the
pleasantest in consequence. Lieut.. e. NJ

The resignation of Capt. Bruso, Jr,
from the fire department leads many
members of the Battery to believe that
the captain will very shortly resign his
commission in that command. A full
account of the company property has
been taken and forwarded to headquar-

FOR A Flve-sToRY BLOCK.
A. S. Lowell to Erect One on His Foster
Street Location.


A. s. Lowell has decided that he will
construct a five-story building uuon his
lot at the rink grounds. the excavations
for which have already been made. At
first it was Mr.. Lowell's intention to erect
simply a one-story block, but after sew
eral consultations with his architects and
contractors, it was decided to have the
block FIVE stories in height.
The basement and first story will be
of fireproof construction, so that the
whole floor area of 1000 feet may be de-
voted 10 Mr.. LowelPs store without any
subdivisions, ard at the same time COM
plying with the fire law. A light court of
1000 feet is taken out of the area upon the
stories above, which reduces the floor
area of these stories to 5000 feet, which is
the limit.
The entire basement excepting such
portions as are required for heating and
lighting purposes the whole on the
ground floor and portion of the second
story will be used by Mr.. Lowell for his
own establishment. The rest of the build
ing will be devoted to offices to aight man.
as the demands of his tenants may re-
ouire II divided into Offices, the plans as
at present drawn call for about Is offices
on each floor
The main entrance to Mr.. Lowers store
will be on the corner of Foster and Nor
wien streets with another entrance on
Norwich street. This second entrance
viii adjoin that leading to the upper sto-
ries. from the Norwich street Side. A
similar entrance for the convenience of
those desiring to reach the upper stories
will be made from Foster street. The en-
trance leading to the elevator viii be
from Norwich street, and Mr.. Lowell will
also have an elevator for his own use run
ming from the basement to the second
story.
The, building will be heated with steam
and lighted with electricity, the latter
probably being furnished by an independ-
ent electrical plant. The specifications
call for the exterior of the building to be
of light buff brick with limestone trim
mings. The floor Of the first story will be
finished IN oak, while those of the stories
above will be of western brown ash
The architects. Messrs. Earle & Fisher,
are now preparing plans for the store Ak
lures, witch win be modelled after those
used in the larger millinery establishments
OF the big cities, and in keeping with the
general style and character of the build
ing.
Cutting, Bardwell & Co. will push the
work forward, and the store will be ready
for occupancy for the Easter trade
