phia, has decided TO row at the Hen
ley regatta next year unless the rules
OF the big meet are altered TO bar tor
eigners. Titus, by virtue of his show
ing against Americas leading oars
man, has an idea that he will be able
to do good work against the Britishers.
Titus is Enthusiastically great per
former with the spoon oars. but expert
watermen with whom I have talked
are OF the opinion he should steer clear
Of Henley. II is thought that the New
Yorker would find himself woetully
outclassed. Titus Is not nearly the
equal Of Edward H. Ten .Eyck, winner
OF the Diamond sculls. and consequent
ly his chances Of victory abroad are
considered not Of the brightest.
Titus Is member OF the Union Boat
club Of New York. but his home city IS
New Orleans, where he received his
primary instruction in rowing at the
hands Of his father. Edwin Scholes,
formerly famous all around athlete
in Canada.
The football games to be held in the

the meeting which began In the spring
at Buffalo.
Records in almost every branch Of
sport have been shattered and many
pastimes have received booms that will
have lasting effect.
The football games will bring to-

CAPTAIN ROBSON
Spoke at Detroit, and Referred to the
 .Confederacy and Slavery.

Detroit, Mich, May 30. = Capt. Rich mond P. Hobson. "the hero of the Mer- rimac," delivered the principal Memorial day address today at the opening of Lake Orion Assembly on their grounds about thirty-five miles from this city. Captain Hobson praised the soldiers of the civil and Spanish wars, and said:
 'I wish that the states of the south would all adopt this day for memorial tributes to the Confederate dead and that the south would invite citizens of the north and the north invite citizens of the south to join in a memorial celebration for the gallant dead of both sides"
 Captain Hobson said he thought the civil war was necessary to cement the union of the states. Discussing slavery, he said that to it we must ascribe the remarkable progress made by the col ored people in so shrot a time. How ever, he said that he believed that at the time of the civil war 1t had run its course and it's abolition was necessary to open avenues for the advance of our country toward universal and complete human liberty.

Summer School for Teachers opens
 With Good Attendance.

Jacksonville, May 0.-(Special) 1.-The summer school of the State Normal open ed yesterday with fifty students enrolled. Not within recent years has Jacksonville witnessed the coming together of so en- thusiastic and so large a number of pub lie school teachers for the purpose of better preparing themselves for their chosen profession. They began three weeks ago to come from several counties of the state for the purpose of taking this review course preparatory to stand ing the state examinations in July. A large majority of the teachers from a distance, as well as those from towns. are preparing for first or second grade. The work of the summer school is so ar ranged as to give the teachers present the opportunity of taking review of any subjects they may be deficient in
 Many others are expected this week or next.
 The school having grown considerably last session by boarding students and by families moving in for school advantages, has caused property to begin to exchange hands and to advance considerably in value.
 The Iron Queen Hotel, which has been converted into a dignitary. is the home of some thirty or forty boarders. Some old buildings have been and are being made new by the carpenters tcols. and it is expected that the town will thrive with real life and true prosperity with the State Normal School in the place of the court officials.

BOAT DROPPED OVER DAM

Philadelphia, May S0.-A row boat con- taining a merry-making party of eight young persons was swept over Flat Rock dam in the Schuylkill river this afternoon and seven of them drowned-six girls and one boy meeting death. The victoms all of whom were Phlladelphians were:
 Roy Kicker. aged IS.
 Florence Densmore, aged 19.
 Magic Kennedy, aged IS.
 Maud Rutter, aged 19.
 Mamie Sullivan, aged 21.
 Florence Bond, aged 21.
 Bertram Osmond, aged 19.
 The young man saved is John Moore, aged H.
 The party started out for picnic early this morning and pitched their camp at Rose Glen, along the Schuylkill river. The party separated after dinner for a row on the river and those above men tioned decided to go in one boat.
 Heavy rains during the past week had made the stream quite high and the cur rent was much swifter than usual. The boy doing the rowing decided to go through the locks and as he approached the dam he was hailed by the lockkeeper not to approach any closer. The young oarsman attempted to turn the boat. which was then about fifty feet from the dam. but he turned the wrong way. Realizing then, for the first time, that they were in danger, the girls began screaming and the oarsman lost control of the boat. ,swiftly- 1t was carried to, ward the brink of the fallin waters. and just as 1t reached the breast of the dam over which thirty inches of water was passing the entire eight stood up and the boat went over stern first.
 The drop to the rocks below is approxi- mately twelve feet. The boat struck the water bottom up, and as it disappeared the whole party was under 1t. Nothing more was seen of the unfortunates by the few persons who saw the accident for al- most a minute, when the boat reappeared with one boy clinging to its keel. Then the other young man was seen to come to the surface and make frantic effort to reach shore by swimming. The six girls never rose to the surface.
 The boy who was swimming and who proved to be Osmond became exhausted and sank before he could be rescued.
 Moore, the other boy, who was clinging to the boat, floated fully a mile down the river and his rescuers had an exciting time before they landed him in another boat.
