Time of Ball Game
and Boat Race
Determined.
GREAT AFTERNOON FOR SPORT.
Saturday To Be a Red-Let-
ter Day in W orcester
Athletics.

The Worcester High School Harvard
freshman boat race and the Holy
Cross Georgetown college base ball
game are both scheduled for Saturday
afternoon, but neither contest will con-
fiict with the other, so that people can
witness both.
The fact that Holy Cross has sched-
uled Georgetown for a game on the col
lege campus for the same date worried
many, lest the ball game should prove
one of the most interesting ever played
in Worcester
Manager Donnelly of the Holy Cross
| team suggested a way by which people
could attend both contests. It was that
the managers Of the boat race hold their
event until $50 o'clock, which is not too
late for boat race, and he would start
the ball game early enough to allow
people a chance to go to the lake after
the game.
Last night, an agreement was
| reached whereby the boat race will be
held at $50 o'clock. Manager Donnelly
has advertised his ball game for 8
o'cl"Ak, but he said last night that he
| would call it possibly as early
as 2.S0 o'clock He will make arrange
ments with the Consolidated Street
Railway company, today, for special
| cars to take the crowd from the ball
game to the lake at the finish of the
game.
The race will be finished by o'clock
and the agreement of the managers
makes a full afternoons sport possible
for the people of the city.
The High school crew was out for it's
regular practice yesterday afternoon
and put in stiff three-mile row. No
attempt to row a trial was made but
1.-THE crew displayed a steadiness and
| evenness that won the admiration of
the people who witnessed the practice.
Manager Lancaster, yesterday, sent
out invitations to friends of the High
| school and freshman crews to follow
the race He has provided the steamer
Apollo as the official boat. This is the
fastest steamer on the lake and it will
carry only the officials of the race and
| newspaper men. The steamer TataSsit
will start from Hass & Fenners wharf
and will carry friends of the crews.
The High school crew received new
suits yesterday but most of them are a
poor fit and will have to be altered be-
fore the men can do the best in them.
The crew will go to the house of the
| Washington Social club Saturday
morning and remain there until called
for the race. A short practice row and
practice in starting and sprinting will
occupy some time in the morning. a
special dinner will be provided by the
steward Of the house.
The Harvard freshman crew viii
come from Boston on a special train
which will reach Worcester at 1913
O'Clock. Manager Lancaster will meet
the crew at the station and escort the
members to the house of the Quinsiga-
mond Boat club, where the freshmen
will be quartered during its stay in the
| city.

Frank n. Hoyle has captured five
young foxes. He placed them in a
wire netting cage a few days ago, and
has had them on exhibition near his
greenhouse. One morning he found
two had disappeared, but as there was
no way of escape, he was afraid hui
man means might have aided the ami
mails in their escape. Yesterday all
were gone, and he found that the baby
foxes had very cleverly pushed aside
the netting and burrowed out.

Made Good His Remarks.

A lecturer who protested against
people going to sleep during his dis
QUESTIONS on heather lands, would, if
he perceived any tendency in that di-
rection, introduce some queer or
startling statement to revive their
tagging attention.
On one occasion when his audience
seemed rather somnolent he thun-
dered out:
"Ah, you have no idea of the suffer
ings of Englishmen in Central Amer
lea. on account of the enormous mos
quitoes. A great many of these pests
would weigh pound, and they will
get on the logs and bark as the white
men are passing"
By this time all ears and eyes were
wide open, and he proceeded to finish
his lecture.
The next day he was called upon to
account for his extraordinary state
ments.
"But I didn't say one mosquito
would weigh pound" he protested;
II said great many Of them would.
I think perhaps a million of them
might do so."
''But you said they bark at the mis-
sionaries," persisted his interlocutor.
"No, no, my dear sir; I said they
would get on the logs and on the bark.
You misunderstood me-"

women's Strength at Golf.

Golf has become so absorbing an
interest to women as we'll as men that
no seaside place seems to have much
chance of success without really good
links. Money spent on making and
keeping up course is about as we'll
invested as it can be- Women occa-
sionally make very fine golfers. Even
if their driving powers are not so
strong as men-and they sometimes
prove to be so-their putting is often
better; and the judgment bestowed on
lofting shots beyond all praise. An
old golfing instructor says that women
seldom play bold and showy game,
but that they work clear of bunkers,
hazards and long grass in a way that
tells wonderfully in the scoring. He
also declares with great gusto that so
men lose their tempers when bunk

A New Opening for Women.

Among the new avenues of liveli-
hood which are opening up to women,
that which is pre-eminently fitted for
the gentlewoman is that of private
secretary to some woman active in a
career, either literary, social or phil
anthropic, who finds her duties great
er than she can cope with single
handed. ''The requirements of the
position are frequently in the actual
possession of well-educated, intelli-
gent woman. In Washington they
are perhaps more exacting than else
where, especially when a society
woman is the employer. With the
change of every administration women
go there strangers to the peculiar re-
quirements of their position, which,
being official, places them in the very
front ranks of the social life of the
city. Hence, the demand has been
for secretaries of superior qualifica-
tions. The secretary of one woman
conspicuously identified with the pres
ent administration is herself daugh-
ter OF an ex-cabinet officer. Foremost
among the attainments of woman
who would fill such place should be
a good, clear chirography. Fu.ther-
more, to be able to fill the office with
that intelligence which demands pro-
portionately high salary she should
know how to write any form of note
that the requirements of good society
might call for; should know how to
accept or decline every form of invi-
tation, and should possess knowl
edge of an additional language. pre-
