The FOMr-Oar Race,

From the appearance of the two four!
 on the water at the navy yard at the
 end of the freshman race there was
 never a doubt as to the superiority O.
 the Harvard quartette. Their physique
 their stroke, their finish were clearly
 ahead of Yale's. Harvard occupied the
 east lane, Yale the west. The race be- gan at 5:40 and Harvard proceeded tc | take vengeance for the freshman de- | feat. The crimson oarsmen took the
 lead at the start. At the half Yale was
 a length behind. Rowing a stroke of
 34, two points higher than Harvard, the 1 New Haven collegians were unable tc
 remain in the running. Harvard gain ! ed so rapidly that the race became un- l interesting except for the beautiful work of Harvard. There was trouble In the Yale shell, Thomas at bow and Rumsey at 3 having rowed themselves out so far as effective work was con- l cerned. Harvard added lengths to her lead and crossed the line in 11:49 1-5,
 six lengths ahead of Yale. The time of Yale was 12:09 1-5.
 While quiet and disappointment pre- vailed at Red Top when the varsity oarsmen returned to their quarters great enthusiasm and jollification exist ed at Broadview when the Ellis arrived there after their victory. At Red Top Dr, Darling gave special treatment to Goodell, Harvard's bow, who collapsed at the finish of the varsity race. The rower was exhausted merely and will probably be all right tomorrow. The Otbar tho for their four-mile ride and passed the evening in resting. Coach Storrow said to the Associated Press reporter: Tt was a plucky race, but the Yale men outclassed us; nevert theless I think we gave them all the row they wanted. As for Goodell he rowed to the finish, and did not give out until then"
 The celebration at the Yale quarter was vigorous but only the beginning of what was expected by the men to oc- cur later at New Haven. There were cheers for Captain Blagdon and each of the men. At the conclusion of dinner all the Yale oarsmen boarded a special train for New Haven. Before starting Coach Allen said that 1t was a great race and hard one. It seemed to him that Harvard gave out at the three and a half nie Up to that point the crim- son rowed In fine form. Mir. Allen at tributed the success in measure to the fact that his men had bene kept very quiet during the pats few days and to their general excellent condition. Captain Blagdon said 1t was the hard est race he had ever rowed. He never wanted to row in another like it.

GOOD BREAKFASTS.
start the Day Right.

The breakfast Is perhaps the most important meal of the day. Europeans
 usually eat very light breakfast. Many Americans have stomach trouble because they eat too much of food of not the right sort for the morning meal An ideal breakfast is a baked apple or some other fruit, a dish of Grape-Nuts Food with a little cream, and a cup of Postum Food Coffee.
 Leave off all meat hot biscuits, etc Grape Nuts and Postum both furnish the phosphate of potash together with other food elements that go to make up brain and nerve centers as well as muscle and tissue, and both can be digested by the stomach of an infant.
 It is the part of wisdom nowadays to use food especially selected for nour- ishment and that can be easily di- gested. Ten days trial of this break fast and you will feel as though you had "cleaned house."
 The exhilaration of bounding health is worth hundred times the small outlay of time and care in arranging such a breakfast.
 Mrs Riley, 125 Chestnut St, Camden. LN' o,, oCSS SIle IOlIHeIly DT6dkldSL6u on chops, hot biscuits and coffee. "Af- ter such a meal I would have severe pains and they would last sometimes far into the night" She finally de- termined on a change in her diet and had for breakfast only Grape-Nuts Food and little cream with Postum Food Coffee She says, Tn a very few days the intestinal trouble all dis appeared. I have regained my old time weight, lost the durability and nervousness, and life takes on a new aspect
 When I feel a little exhausted in the ! day I simply drop everything and stir {! a spoonful of Grape-Nuts in a little | cream or hot milk, and in ten minutes 1 have regained my vigor and fresh | ness" { 'Grape-Nuts Food is best when served | just as it comes from the package with out any cooking whatever. The food has already been cooked ten or twelve hours in the process of manufacturing 1t. When made up into buildings, pies and other desserts it does not hurt it to be cooked again, but when served simply as a breakfast food it should never be cooked. On the contrary, Postum Coffee absolutely must be boiled 15 or 20 minutes before the food value and flavor can be brought out.

STATISTICS OF HARTARD CREW.
Three Veterans in the Boat-Not Man
 Under Six Feet.

Under Six Feet
 New London, June 26.-Three veter- ans of last years crew sat in the liar yard shell of 1901 Hugh Bancroft, with an experience of two years, occu- pies the most trying position, that of stroke. Bullard, until the last mo- ment a substitute on last years crew. is now veteran. in view of the fact that an accident to Captain Higginson gave him an opportunity to row in the varsity eight against Yale year ago. Shuebruck Is the third veteran. These three constitute a nucleus reinforced by James Lawrence, who rowed in the winning university crew in 1899, only to fail of a position in last years shell.
 The other half of the eight have all had considerable experience in class crew work, and are by no means inex- perienced.
 Not man of the crimson eight is under six feet in height, and the aver age weight of the men is ITO 1-4. Ban croft, who fought it out to a finish in last years heartbreaking climax, is powerful and steady, and he is relied on to stroke his crew in masterful style, In the middle of the boat he has a steady trio, two veterans of last years eight, Bullard and Shuebruck and Law renee of the 99 crew. The crew Is a well balanced one. and they are fight ters every man of them. Little Jack son, cox of much experience, has

 New London, June 26.--The Yale uni versity crew is three eighths veteran
 while the other ive-eighths is made III
 of strong, skilful oarsmen, who have | had plenty of experience in racing i shells, although they appear this yea, | for the first time In varsity eight | The veterans are Cameron, Captain Blagden and Kunzig, and this trio oc- cupy the three seats aft in the boat Cameron, who stroked the victorious
 crew of last year, Is backed up by Cap tain Blagden at and Kunzig at 6, and
 these three, all magnificent oarsmen, should with their experience, succeed
 in keeping their colleagues up to the desired pitch. Mitchell at and Hooker
 at have both occupied seats in Yale
 varsity four while Rogue, 2, and Wa
 experience. Johnson, No. 3, a freshman
 in the Medical school, is the only mem
 Der of the eight who has not had pre-
 vious Yale experience. Before coming
 to Yale, however, he had rowed much and easily made the varsity eight. Chittenden, the coxswain Is an old hand at the ropes. He steered a mag nificent race for Yale's winning crew of last year.
 One of the strongest points of the Yale eight Is to be found in the fact that every man, besides being a fair oar, is limit worker and it may be predicted that the eight, individually and as a unit, will pull for the last pound and to the last inch of the long four mile journey.
 Like the Harvard crew, the Yale con- tingent is a heavy one, averaging 171A pounds. Following are the statistics of the crew:
 Alexander Cameron, 19o1.. stroke, lives in Brooklyn. He stroked the eight of last year in superb style. He prepared for college at St. Paul's school, and upon entering Yale be- came prominent in boating affairs He was stroke on his freshman crew, and was also pacemaker for '99's varsity four Cameron is 21 years of age, weighs 164 pounds and is feet il inches .all

 DEATH

While in high spirits and apparently enjoying good health, Miss Susan Cath erine Curtis died Wednesday evening at her home on Academy Hill, Strat- ford. Paralysis of the heart was the cause of the sudden end. which was a shock to her family and friends. Miss Curtis had been riding her bicycle and upon reaching home expressed the thought that she could ride still more and enjoy it. Two fighting dogs at- tracted her attention, and she became disturbed over the way they were tear- ing each others flesh. The fatal at- tack followed Dr. William B.

WAR TAX REDUCTION.
Chairman Payne Discusses This Inn
 portant Question.

A
 Dortant Question.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.--Chairman Payne of the ways and means commit tee says that no definite plans have been made thus far for considering the question of further reducing the war taxes. At the same time there has been much informal discussion of the sub- ject, considerable data has been gath cred concerning the items which can be best reduced, and there seems to be general purpose on the part of the members of the committee to push this important question to the front soon after the holidays. Tn speaking of the matter MT. Payne said:
 With a surplus of about $1O0, ,000,- 900, 1 have no doubt the ways and means committee will frame bill re- ducing the revenues, probably on the general lines of the last war tax reduc- ton bill. But there is no particular hurry in dealing with the subject, as there are several contingencies which may call for a large increase in govern ment expenditures, and it will be well to understand pretty well what our ex- penditures are to be before finally de- termining on a large reduction of the revenues. When we make the reduc- ton, we ought to make it as large as can be made with safety. Tn my judg- ment the committee will take the mat ter up soon after the holidays. Wheth- CT we will have hearings or not will depend upon the pleasure of the com mittee."
 In the absence of action by the com mittee MT. Payne will not discuss the prospects of reduction on particular items. Already, however, several in- terests have applied for hearings. These include the representatives of the tea interests, who desire to have the 10 cent tax imposed by the war revenue act taken off of that product. No formal application has been made by the representatives of the beer and wine interests, but both are expected to make strong efforts for reductions on their respective taxes. Suggestions have also reached members of the com- mittee that the war tax imposed on banking capital be taken off.
 Another proposition is for the doing away with the withdrawal stamp taxes on imported merchandise, particularly on tobacco, as these withdrawal stamps are said to be very onerous to import CTS. The large tobacco interests have not yet made known what, if any, further reduction they would seek on tobacco, but the independent producers of manufactured tobacco and snuff are understood to desire. reduction from the present rate to 6 cents per hundred. Bills have been introduced proposing reduction as low as cents per pound. There is no suggestion thus far that further changes will be made on cigars and cigarettes. Owing to the large amount of surplus there is some senti- ment among members in favor of wip- ing out the entire list of war revenue taxes at a single stroke, thus leaving the revenue and custom laws upon the basis that existed prior to the Spanish war.
