ale Crew Rows Into the Swell of a
Steamboat.

Gales Ferry, CT, June PA heavy
thunder shower, which prevailed for
the greater part of the afternoon. it
was thought would prevent the crew
from getting out on the water for their
evening practice, but as the water was
reasonably calm shortly after I o'clock.
the men started out to try a pull over
the fOur-mile course.
On the way down the Harvard var
sity eight was passed, coming UP on
their practice stretch The men pulled
away strongly, and the boat showed
good speed. At a point opposite the
navy yard the Frank Thompson, which
was returning to New London for the
night, came down at a rapid rate,
passing within IS yards of the craw
and in the heavy wash that followed. It
seemed as if the Yale shell was going
to break in two as she went over the
swells.
An order to Vast" was given from
the launch, and one or two men stopped
rowing, but Captain Allen, realizing
that it would do no good to stop, had
the men continue. 1t grew dark rapid

could be taken only when the cox
SWANS voice was heard. The course
was covered IN something under -
minutes
The Harvard crew ended their week s
work with a time row of three miles
tonight, and the last half mile was a
triangular race, in which the fresh
men eight and varsity four were wait

eight finished in a Sc stroke. The time
for the three miles was about 16 min

1t is patent that the crew has made
a distinct improvement the past week,
and noticeably the past two or three
days. which is equally due to Messrs.
Mumford and Storrow's coaching. The
new shell, purchased by New York
graduates has not been satisfactorily
rugged yet. and will not be used be-

Providence, R. L. June 24.-Rain stopped
the game between Providence and SYRIA

With my mind lost to all else save the
calculation of the speed and distance we
were making, and my body braced forward
awaiting the proper moment to swerve the
boats course, was suddenly startled by a
quick exclamation from Ames, which was
at once followed by rasping bump and
the heeling of the scow until the water
poured in over the gunwale. At the same
moment the starboard oar received blow
that almost tore it from my hand, and what
seemed huge black object arose along
side and quickly vanished in the mist and
darkness astern. The suddenness and
Ismartness of the shock were startling; but,
quick as were the appearance and disap-
pesrance of the obstruction we had fouled,
I recognized it to be the spar buoy which
