ATHLETICS AT VASSAR.
Girls Who Know How to Throw and
Jump as Well as Boys.

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, May PA por-
ton of the programme of the twice-post-
poned field day at Vassar College was given
this afternoon, when the weather for the
first time propitious. The time was
not announced, therefore there were only
a few spectators outside the students. The
latter, however, numbering nearly 200, sup
piled plenty of enthusiasm for the various
events. No men were admitted TO witness
the games except the faculty. The girls
wore blue blouses and boomers and black
stockings.
Four of the twelve events which the
Nassar Athletic Association had arranged
for figld day were decided. Four more Will
be held tomorrow afternoon, and the re-
mainder on Tuesday Two college records
were broken this afternoon. They were the
standing broad jump, seven feet one inch,
by MaTNaTet Calhoun, 1901, and throwing
the base ball, 10 feet inches, made by
Emma Bradley, of 1900. In the standing
broad jump to-day Miss d. Z. Merrill, 1902.
broke the record by scoring seven feet four
inches. and Julia b. Lockwood, 1901, did
the same thing with the baseball record
throwing the ball 173 feet inches. The
winners to-day were:
Fifty-yard dash: Miss A. S. Woods.
Time, seconds.
Fence vault: Miss d. z. Merrill, Brook
Ign, feet S24 inches.
Standing broad jump: Miss d. E. Mer-
rill. feet inches
Throwing the baseball: Miss ]. B. Lock-
wood, Norwalk. Conn.,, 173 feet 6 inches.

OLYMPIAN GAMES.
They Will BE Held Both in Chicago
and Athens in 1904.

CHICAGO, May 21.-It was decided in
Paris to-day that Olympian games will
be held in Chicago in 1904 There is great
rejoicing among Chicago University stu
dents in consequence
"Olympian games will be held in Athens
as we'll as in Chicago in 1904. and the
greatest effort will be put forth by the
Greeks to attract contestants and specta-
tors away from Chicago TO the tourna-
ment in the ancient city" This declara-
ton was made to-day by DR.. Nicolas Sal
oppolas. Grecian consul here, who claimed
that the only genuine simon pure Olympian
games three years hence would be those in
the capital of his country. From the time
GORGEOUS won his great foot race at the
athletic contests in 776, 3. c., until last
year, at Paris, the Olympian games have
been held only in Greece said DR.. Salop-
polas. only by consent of the Greeks
were they held in Paris, and that was be-
cause the worlds exposition was there.
Now ii is not right that the games shall
be anywhere but in Athens, and we are
going ahead with the preparations for 1904
just though action had been taken
by the Paris committee which was acting
bitter 1t is wrong to think of taking from
Greece this great event. For reasons of
justice as well as sentiment Athens should
be regarded the only place for it, and
il is my belief that the countries of
Europe, except, possibly, England and
France, will recognize Athens claims and
send their athletes there"

Governor Aycock Explains the North
Carolina Election LAW.

NEW YORK. May 21.-Judge Augustus
Vanwick presided last night at the annual
dinner Of the North Carolina Society. held
in the Aston Gallery of the Waldorf Gov
ernor Aycock, of North Carolina, spoke of
the new conditions of the South and the
duties of the Southern people toward the
negro race. saying in part:
I'm 1900 made good the determination
OF 1895. We adopted that year the constitu-
tiOnal amendment which bases suffrage
upon intelligence and renders the futur, of
the State secure. That amendment has
provoked much discussion in the North
The attack upon US is based on the assump-
ton that We have done an injustice 10 the
negro. Our amendment does no such thing
We have recognized the power of the inffu-
ence of heredity. We think that hose who
have exercised the privilege OF suffrage
and those descended from Such peoI.e are
more likely to exercise that suffrage bene-
ficially than the men upon whom suffrage
has been cast as a gift. The amendment
10 the Constitution OF North Carolina pro-
vides that no man shall vote in that State
after 1902 who cannot read and write, but
exempts from this inhibitory clause those
who could vote on Jan. I. 1867. or at 49,.

from such voters. This provision applies

gard to Suicide of Members.

COLUMBUS, O., May 21.-The Supreme
Camp Woodmen of the World. in COM
mittee of the whole to-day, considered the
report of the committee on legislation
Several important amendments to the con-
stitution were adopted. The policy of re-
ducing expenses is being adhered TO and

or three OF the crew. once more the yacht
was swung around into the wind and this
time Captain RhOades. her skipper, took
the wheel The breeze increased TO nearly
ten knots. About a mile below Pruden
Island. or some eight miles above Newport
the boat was headed up the bay for her
mOOrings. The Constitution logged along
with her big boom well off 10 port. and
just before reaching the entrance of the
harbor. was given a short. sharp reach up
toward Bristol Ferry. This was all. how
ever, for soon after the gaff tOpSail and
the jb tOpsail were lowered. and, at half
past three the mainsail itself came down.
She ran up TO her moorings under jib alone
and her first effert was done.
The yacht has not been turned over TO
her owners as there is still some light work
10 be done on some of the rigging and in
side. 1t is probable that she will formally
be placed in commission at Newport late in
the week. critical analysis of the boat
is that she is well balanced and well rugged,
but her sails need Improvement. As to her
speed it is too early TO draw any conclu-
sion.
King Edward will be on board the chal-
lenger in tO-mOrrOW's trial.

William III. Thompson Arrested on the
Charge of Forgery.

NEW YORK, May Civilian II.
Thompson. who was at one time captain of
an ocean liner and who is now a member
of the Flower-Thompson Company, a medi-
cine company, was arrested to-day charged
with forgery. The complainant was Eliza
beth II. Reed. of the Bronx, who claims
that over a year ago she purchased one
$1,000 gold debenture bond of the Flower
Thompson Company from r. o. Flower. on
which was signed the name of John S.
Nugent, treasurer of the Flower-Thomp-
son Company. 1t is alleged in the COM
plant that Thompson at one time re-
ceived check from John S. Nugent and
that he took this check with Nugent's
signature on ii to a lthographing firm
and had the name of Nugent placed in the
cOmpanys bond as treasurer. This is the
alleged forgery complained of. Thompson
was held in 5000 bond. In 1872 Thompson
received a gold watch from President
Grant for his services in saving two lives
on beard a steamship.

the bay in a lively fashion with little fuss
and scarcely any feathery foam under her
smooth bow or in her clean wake. Every
point of sailing was tried. she was hauled

times, given a good broad reach and finally

The Constitution left her moorings at 10
