A New Note.

Make up your minds that definite and
settled opinions in theology, if not within
easy reach. are possible, are desirable, are
worthy of intense inquiry. Shake off this
lethargy which allows you to remain in
eternal suspense, this indifference which
you call liberaity, lnis apathy you name
candor. 1t needs, doubt not, some finer
and more generous statement to win the
ear and heart of Christendom, but | feel a
mighty confidence that, the first time now
that Christian theology clears her trumpet
and utters not uncertain note, the voice
of Charming will be the dominant OF the
strain. Henry w. Bellows.

A MONG the Californians present at the
recent regatta at Astoria was the
n well-known Dolphin oarsman and
scuIler A. W Pape- Although he
viewed the races there with much inter
est ne did not take any part in them
Leander Stevenson was a.so at Astoria
and arranged match TO take place be-
tween Gloss of the Portland Rowing Club
and Pape some time next year. either in
San Francisco or Portland. Gloss has
been doing such good work in the single
shell lately in British Columbia at Port
iand and at Astoria that he would have
several hackers in Portland. while Pape
has many warm supporters in sar iran
cisco.
There is considerable variation in the
length of the racing shells used by diff
ferent scullers. Gloss of Portland uses
one of the new short boats. twenty six
feet in length, while Patton Of the same
place pulls in an old style boat thirty
two feet long. Pape's shell is thirty feet
long, but most of the scullers in the
Eastern States are using twenty-eight-
foot craft Pape looks thin and some
v hat worn out by the heat of the SUM-
mer spent in the Eastern States. but eX-
poets to regain his lost weight in CalfOr-
MIA.
Gloss the Portland single sculler. who
had been beaten a short time previously
by De Bressey at Victoria. 3. c., turned
the tables his opponent at Astoria.
On Wednesday he beat him clearly by a
length or two, but as there were no
judges at the finishing line De Bressey
claimed IT was no race. The next day
Gloss and De Bressey pulled again, Pat
ton of Portland and Springer of Van
hlfrl oil n, he
the lead. but near the finish a whitehall
boat crossed his bows, delaying him, and
little later stopped DE Bressey. It was
ordered that the race should be rowed
over. On the third occasion Gloss was
leading and was about one furIong from
the finishing line when De Bressey ran
into box that was floating about, break
ing his shell and having to be picked up

pect to be taking part in four-oared shell
races next year. The Ariel Rowing Club
has purchased a four-oared paper she'll
which, while Ii is not new. is a good boat
and can be put into excellent condition
The Alameda Boat Club oarsmen are
ready TO take UP shell racing, and the
University of California and the Olympic
beat clubs will also do so. Next year
the oarsmen Of San Francisco Bay will
be able to compete in the same races as
the crews from British Columbia, Seattle
Portland and other places
The Alameda oarsmen are pleased with
the treatment received at Astoria. where
they won the barge races on two DAYS.
They were not able to take part in the
outraged skiff races. as the steamer on
which they returned to San Francisco
left Astoria before the skiff events took
place. The Alameda club, in whose Gus
