REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
New York. June tom sha-Hey. the

strong man. and incidentally TO become {.
matinee idol.
His vanity ought 10 carry him through
Tom was surprised while attending q my
tual admiration scene before a mirror IN
his saloon yesterday and asked as TO his
ambition.
There's nothing 20 tits the strong man

of his calf in the mirror. which was about
the size OF wash bowl and quite unable

mirror to thI wall with a sigh This
wrestling and fighting is all right in its
way, but have come TO the conclusion that
the zeal thing for a man with the build

the Fourth Of July and add to the Gayety
OF the occasion by coming out on the COM

DO it, Sure.
say, that's dead easy stunt for me.
When / was at home on my ranch at Val

against team of horses every day just for

pulled around that had to give it up. They
got into the habit of going backward and.
when 1 had them hitcned UP. they used TO
throw off on me and try to back UP instead
OF going ahead, like the pig that the Irish
man was trying to drive 20 Dublin, and
had to head for Cork to get him TO so In

out of the gate to go down toward Frisco.

At this juncture Tom turned the mirror

YALE FRESHMEN DEFEAT
HARVARD VARSITY CREW.
First Row on the Thames Eour-Miie
Course Results DfscouraEinSly for
HiCginson and McGrew.
REPuBLIC SPECIAL

Gales Ferry. Conn, June 6-For the Sec
ond time this week the Yale freshmen
eight this afternoon defeated the varsity
crew in race on the river The two Fights
had four-miie row. starting at the bridge
at New London and going upstream with a
f2vortng tide and a light wind.
The freshmen got the jump on the other
boat at the start, and at the navy yard,
the two-mile point, they were three lengths
ahead. This lead was cut down somewhat at
the finish, though the freshmen were still
two lengths to the good at that point.
The time, according TO the coaches. was
slow. but no figures were given out. the
Harvard varsity crew this afternoon took
its first time row on the Thames River over
the full four-rnile course.
The men showed up well during the first
two miles, but toward the finish several
were almost in state of collapse.
There was considerable splashing and the
form was very poor. Higginson, the coach,
and McGrew, the captain, are Tonight
greatly discouraged over the showing. and
especially in view of the fact that when
Yale roWed the course, soon after Harvard's
trial, Harvard watches caught the time as
= minutes 10 seconds, against Harvard's -
minutes 50 seconds
McGrew set the stroke at % on the start.
and this was maintained for the lirst fwo
miles. When the finish was reached the
stroke was 30 and Sc, and the rowing was
very ragged.
