Che warning, regarding the purchase
Of Che Whitney and Lilley land and
water power at Cady's Falls were
taken up together and occasioned
q lively discussion. Mr.. Stafford
brought the subject before the meet
ing, stating the situation, which in

land and water power at Cady's Falls and
the so-called A. F. Whitney land and water
power at Cady's Falls and to pledge the
credit of the village therefor.

Capt. Kenfield and Ell. A. Slayton
objected to the purchase on the
grounds that it would be an unneces-
sary expense, the resolution was not
adopted. During the discussion
Supt. G. A. SlaytoD was called upon
and gave some valuable information
as to the present capacity of the
Plant and stated that we can now
furnish power to the amount of 200
horse power, with our present machin-
sry, provided we have sufficient
@ater power. There would be no ex-
ira expense incurred on machinery
at the Plant. In connection with
this article the following resolution

while the Columbia and Constitution were
trying to outluff each other. BY their
sharp rivalry both older boats lost hum

might have had of winning.
After that it was procession all the
way around to the finish line, where the
Reliance beat the Constitution by four
minutes and seventeen seconds, and the
Columbia by seven minutes and thirty
one seconds. The course was twice
around a triangle, reach of three miles
across the sound, a four-nnile beat to
the windward and broad reach of four
and three-quarters miles, twenty three
and one-haf miles in all.
Captain Barr sent the Reliance across
the windward end of the line. blank

others astern, leaving them fighting for
the windward position. By splitting tacks
the Constitution got clear of the Columbia.

Series With Tebeau's
Men.
Clymer's Hit, Which the Millers De-
clare Is Foul, Decides the
Struggle.

Louisville. June IA hard grounder
from Captain Clymer's bat, which went
down the left foul line for a homer, but
which the visiting players decided was
foul by two feet, won yesterdays game
for Louisville.
Clymer got off this swat in the last
half Of the ninth. Lally sprinted des-
perately after the sphere. but when he
had sent it back to the plate, Clymer was
safely across. The millers kicked We
hemently upon Cunningham's decision,
declaring the hit fair. but the little UNI
pires word had to go.
Yeager's men put up a very different
exhibition to-day, and it required the best
the colonies could offer to win out. Walk
er, usually an enigma to the millers, was
touched up freely, but he kept the swats
scattered. and pulled himself out OF tight
holes Vasbinder did not allow col
onel to reach first in the first four in
nings. After that the hits came with
some frequency, and just at the right
times to bring In runs.
The hitting honors of the day went to
little Oyler, who registered four singles
out of four times up. The score:

Of the scores were close. A. B. Cults
and J. N. Greer made the highest scores,
each finishing II up.
The best match of the day was between
c. S.. Bracket and Frank Hale, who
halved their match. Bracket was one up
at the end of the first round, and main
tanned this slight advantage up to the
eighteenth hole, which was won by Hale,
putting the men on even terms.
Cloudy weather and broken automo-
biles kept the attendance down, and some
to play. The third pair was just teeing
off when big red automobile came
putting up. It contained ALT Pillsbury, G.
T. Jaffray and c. D. Velie, who had last
been seen on the road near Wayzata,
beneath a big racer. Mr.. Pillsbury said
that he had to stop and help

due to generosity on his part, he ex-
planned, but othe fact that his own
auto had been blockaded by his cousins
machine, and that he was unable to go on
until G. Pillsburys had cleared the road.

day. A. B. Cults got revenge upon ]. E.

but in the second he went clear to the

the third he came up groggy and four

At this point Thomas was sent in to
save the day if possible. Apparently,
however, the man from Pike county did
not intend to spoil his arm trying to win
a game that was hopelessly lost. The
score shows what the colonies did to him.
Meanwhile, McCord was pitching winning

could do with his delivery. The score:

CORNELL THE FAYORITE
Speculation at Poughkeepsie Favors
Courtney's Men to Win the
Big Regatta.

= - Z : r. ) -, .-
The principal concern of the coaches of
the college crews at Poughkeepsie is that
their men are all putting on weight. This
is due to the continued cool weather and
it has necessitated. harder work on the
part of all the rowers The coaches are
hoping for radical change of weather.
They say they do not care how hot it.
may be, the hotter the better. The Wis
consin men especially are overworked and
yesterday Coach O'Dea sent two men,
Bartel and Mather, for a long walk in the
rain, each man wearing two or three
sweaters. Each man lost three or four
pounds by the round walk. In this con-
nection it is interesting to note that the
Columbia varsity eight in their four-n1ile
trial last evening lost an average of 3h
pounds per man.
There is little or no betting, as yet, but;
all the speculation favors Cornell and the
public confidence in the ability of Court
ney's men to win is shared by the Itha-
cans themselves. There never has been
a more marked air Of confidence about
a Cornell crew quarter than there is this:
year and it is evident from the manner:
of all, from coach to {cOxsWain, that they
expect victory in the coming contest
The fastest time now stands to, the credit
Of Pennsylvania, being 10: minutes and 90
seconds, as given out by Coach Ward
Remarkable improvement is shown by the
, keepsie
Andrew O'Dea will not talk about the
Wisconsin crew, except to- say that they
are faster than last year. They are very
popular with the people at Poughkeepsie,
who admire their pluck in coming a long
| distance.
Georgetown and Syracuse have better
| crews than last year. Being the last to
arrive they expect to work the hardest
during the few days that remains before
the race.
