fast and this has been in a measure dem
onstrated in their practice with the
Fights.
In the freshmen Fights the youngsters
from Wisconsin are picked as winners by
the same aggregation of experts that pick
Pennsy in the fours. That they are very
fast is not to be disputed, and they have
a quick, snappy style that usually counts
for much in the short Emile race, but
the Pennsylvania freshmen are also very
quick and have given the Varsity crew a
good hustle many times lately, showing
continuous improvement that may be
dangerous to the success of the Wiscon-
sin men. Cornell Is usually feature in
the freshmen races here and has by no
means conceded that it is outclasscd.
while the Columbia boys, if they do not
forget the Hanlan stroke, claim that they
will be in the foremost of the fight
One thing is always true of a freshmen
race, that 1t is won, because of its short
course. by continuously hard work and
not particularly by endurance and skill
like the 4-mIe, and that any one Of the
four crews has good winning chance.

it looks now as if it would be done in
fast time.
The Varsity race is causing more dis
agreements in expert circles than any
previous race in years and this is be-
licved to be due to a divergence Of opin-
ion as to the relative merits Of the
strokes. 1t Is a singular fact that five
distinct strokes are being rowed here and
will be tested in the race. tomorrow, in
cOntradistinction to an almost similar
stroke rowed by Yale and Harvard,

GEN. ANDRES REFUSAL
To Allow Col. Marchand TO Attend Reception
Meets With Vigorous Protests.

Paris, June 29.-S Z. M.-Thcre was a
stormy session of the Paris municipal
council, today. growing out of the dis
cussion of the refusal Of the minister
of war Gen. Andre, to allow Col. Mcr-
chand of Fashoda fame, to accept the
councils invitation to attend an official
reception at the town hall. on the
ground that no officer in active service
can participate in political demon
stration.
The Nationalist speakers delivered
vigorous protests against the ministers
decision, to which the Socialists re-
sponded in an equally warm manner.
After great tumult, the council finally
adopted a Nationalist motion protest
ing against the governments refusal to
allow the proposed reception to be held
and continuing its invitation, of which
the execution was only postponed until
after the fall of the government and

TINE Beers TEETH
Continued from page ~

the House Of Commons went into COM
mittee of supply, today, on the supple
mentary vote for the army medical SER
vice. introduced for the purpose Of de-
batting the charge of hospital misman-
agement in South Africa made by Mr..
VIM. l.. Ashmead-B Bartlett Burdett-
Coutts, Conservative, member for
Westminster, the parliamentary secre-
tary Of the war office, Mr.. George
Wyndam briefly presented the govern
ment's defence. The allegations as to
neglect Of the sick and wounded were
frankly admitted to be true to la
mentable extent. The disabled were
exposed, he said to terrible hardships,
but it was not due to any stinting of
supplies, but to the insuperab BILE diff
culties of distributing supplies, of
which there had been an embarrassing
accumulation in South Africa. Every
demand on the government in behalf of
the troops, he continued, had been
complied with. The officials in South
Africa said the hospitals had beds in
excess Of the demands. There were
5000 beds in Natal and 1860 in Cape
Colony. There were in South Africa
466 army and 440 civilian medical Off
GERS and $50 female and 566S male
nurses, besides the doctors and nurses
engaged locally.
Mr.. Wyndham contended that to
have given a true impression of the
state of affairs existing. MIR. Burdett-
Coutts should have painted compan-
ion picture showing the difficulties en-
countered in supplying 5000 troops on
the march, which was carried out,
practically under the end of a huge fly
ing column. The single line of rail-
road, with bridges broken, he assert
ed. had to carry 1920 tons daily by or
der of Lord Roberts
The army. Mr. Wynham further re-
marked, should not starve or be de-
feated. He concluded with contending
that Mr. Burdett-C outts' picture rested
on the fallacy that Bloemfontein was a
secure base hospital, whereas, during
the whole period referred to, Lord Rob-
erts' TANKS and communications were
threatened and actions daily occurred.
Mr.. Burdett-Coutts replied that he
repeated the charges already known
and declared that a single days trains
on the railroad to BloemfOnteln would
have saved the situation
But. he claimed. the interests of the
sick and wounded were postponed for
interests which were never vital no..

dences occupied by officers. he said.
might have been taken for the use Of
men who were dying. But. presume
bly,, they were not taken because no
medical equipment was available for
them. There was not much use in the
government giving the figures of sup
plies, June Is, when the tragedy was
over. His whole point was that Great
Britain was unprepared. He thought
the responsibility rested not with an
individual but with the system, which
was entirely inelastic and deficient.
The supplementary vote was agreed to
without a division after further debate
between David Lloyd-George. Liberal,
and Mr. Balfour.

I've been working on this road

the motorman twisted the brake with
smile at the next stop. The correct
answer was something like 229. $50 miles.

nine times and still have enough to
spare to make good sized electric

extra trips enough to make up for all
the lost time charged against him and
has his record in the Office to back his
statement. There are other men on the
road who have worked longer than he
has, so their record is greater. One be
comes bewildered when he attempts to
reckon the number of times the brake
has been set and released and the
amount Of power and energy that there
has been used while making the trips.
