PoToMACs' HOUSE OPENING.
Regatta to Be Started Tomorrow Even
ing at $50.

The annual regatta and house opening Of
the Potomac Boat Club will take place to-
morrow afternoon and evening. The re-
gatta will start promptly at $50 o'clock
and will follow the usual course of the
club. starting and finishing directly in front
of the club house, with the exception of
the race for eight-oared shells. which will
be stra1ghtaway, starting up river and fin
ishing in front of the club house. The club
has arranged a very fine program of events
and spectators who desire to witness them
should be promptly on hand. as Captain
Young has given orders that there will be
no delays. OF course. the greatest inter
est centers in the junior eight-oared she'll
contest between the Potomacs and Analos-
tans, and there is no doubt the race will
be hoty contested from start to finish. AT
the previous meeting in the regatta of the
Analostans the Analostans won easily, and
they are confident that they will repeat the
dose again tomorrow. while the juniors of
the PotOmacS are anxious to retrieve the sad
defeat they received at that time. The
second interesting race for outsiders will
be the four-oared contest between the Old
Domnions and Analostans, interesting
from the fact that it is the Virginians first
appearance in race since 1889
But of all races the senior club scullers
will be the most eventful, as the four
ambitious scullers have been anxious for
quite a period to get alongside of one an
other in a bonafide race. In this race will
start Britt an intermediate, and DAILY. Red
ington and Edmonston, juniors, and the
one that wins will remember that he
in a big for once.
