the Harlem River.

tho Harlem River.
The Harlem River presented n holiday ap-
pearance yesterday when the crews in training
for the Middle States Regatta. which takes
place to-day. put-the finishing touches on their
training work. A brisk breeze prevailed most
OF the day and tempered the tropical heat some
what. but the coaches gave to their charges
only sufficient exercise to keep them in trim
for the struggles which await them. OF course
the greatest interest was taken in the spins Of
the visiting contingent OF oarsmen. and the gem
eral verdict afterward was that many OF the
most important races would be won by the
crews from Philadelphia and Newark.
Tho visitors have been quartered at the dit
ferent lighthouses on the river since Saturday.
At the Union Boat Club are the crews OF the
Pennsylvania Barge Club. ,Vesper Boat Club.
