Gales Ferry, Conn, June 25.-With the surface of the Thames none too fa- Vorable and the sky overcast the crews
 of old Yale and fair Harvard had their final practice this evening and the oars-
 men are ready for the regatta of to- morrow. The atmosphere at both quar- ters indicates confidence with the feel
 ing of hopefulness a trife stronger at
 Broad View, where the Yale oarsmen
 are located. At Red Top the Harvard
 boating sharps are discussing with sat
 isfaction the recent performance of the
 varsity eight on a time row. The fig
 ures of this row are not disclosed but
 it is hinted that the Crimson did the
 four miles a few days ago in time not
 many seconds slower than 20:10, the record for the course. Those close to
 the Yale authorities are not talking very much, but it Is whispered that the
 Yale eight rowed four miles in 20 min utes and 40 seconds the latter part of last week.
 According to the best opinion the big race of tomorrow will prove a close one.
 The rival colleges met on the Thames late this afternoon in an actual race. It was arranged spontaneously that the scrub fours from the two institutions should row a race of half a mile. The young men from Cambridge tonight are congratulating themselves on a vic tory. The substitute four from liar yard defeated a similar crew from Yale by full length Harvard did the half mile in 2:40 and Yale never headed Harvard
 The final details for to-morrows pro- gramme were arranged just before the evening practice. Captain Kunzig of Yale went down to the Harvard quar- ters and with Captain Bullard of liar yard tossed for positions. Luck was with Yale with a vengeance, for Cap tain Kunzig called the turn of the coin for all three races. He selected the west course for the varsity eight and the varsity four race and the east course for the freshman race. It was remarked after the matter of positions had been settled that both sides were Kunzig had his choice and took the courses Bullard did not want.
 The Yale men were the first on the water for the last practice rows. The four cared shell came out at o'clock and for half an hour tried racing starts. At 5;30 the varsity and freshman eights launched their shells and they, too, practiced starting. Later these two crews rowed short stretches side by side, pulling 30 strokes to the minute.

Ants In Siam.

M. Charles Meissen, a French ex-
plorer, in travelling through Siam OBJ
served a species of small gray ants
which were new to him. These ants
were much engaged in travelling. They
lived in damp places and went in
troops. To his surprise he noticed
among them from time to time an oc-
casional ant which was much larger
than the others and moved at much
swifter pace, and each of these larger
ants NJ. Meissen saw always carried
one of the gray ants on its back. While
the main body of gray ants were al
ways ON foot, they were accompanied
by at least one Of their own sort
mounted on one of these larger ants.
1t mounted and detached itself now
and then from the line, rode rapidly
to the head, came swiftly back to the
rear and seemed to be the commander
of the expedition. The explorer was
satisfied that this species of ant en-
ploys a larger ant, possibly drone of
the same species, just as we employ
horses to ride upon, though scarcely
more than one ant in each colony
seems to be provided with mount.

The artistic sphere of woman has
widened of late to include so many
departments that there is almost an
embarrassment of riches from which
to make choice. One of the latest
is the designing of artistic jewelry, a
craft to which woman's light and
dainty manipulation is peculiarly
adapted. In England, particularly,
women have been meeting with much
success In this line and there is no
reason why it should not be widely
taken up, for the present renaissance
in the jewelers. art has doubtless come
to stay. 1t recognizes the art of the
metal worker as an important factor,
and quite independent of costly stones.
1t considers beauty of form and color
rather than display of expensive ma
terial. In all this the art and taste
Of woman are making themselves felt.

MT. Bryan has determined that if he shall not be permitted to harmonize the national democratic party there will be no characterization. He is said to be preparing a roast of the love feast in New York last Thursday night, at which those old enemies, ex-President Cleveland and David Bennett Hill, were brought into juxtaposition again. Both gentlemen made speeches, but we have observed nothing in the speeches, or even between the lines, which could give offense to Mr. Bryan, unless it was the admission by Mr. Cleveland that the democratic party had not been successful lately. We think that Mir Bryan will have to admit that Mr Cleveland is supported by the record of the last six years.
