After weeks of faithful preparation
the Yale and Harvard crews are train.

brothers, sisters, and sweethearts,

morrow yell themselves hoarse as
they have SO many times before along
the historic course. The harbor is
RAPIDLY filling with yachts, and the
race will be witnessed by many dis.
tinguished visitors.
The final details of the contests
We're arranged today. The program
as laid out calls for the starting of
the freshman race at 1890 o'clock
tomorrow morning from the big
bridge two miles up stream. The
varsity four-oared crew race will
start from the point where the fresh
man race terminates. The distance
will be two miles UP stream. The OBJ.
servation trains will then go back
four miles to the head of the course,
and start down stream at 1890
o'clock over that heartbreaking
stretch of four miles. Should the
water be too rough the varsity race
will be deferred until about 4:30 p. m.
Among the arrivals today are many
oldtime oarsmen. who predict that
the races this year will not be as close
as usual. Either one college or the
other seems to have a decided advant-
age in each of the three events. Yale
seems to have a mortgage on the main
event Of the day. the varsity eight
contest. Harvard seems to have a
good chance Of winning the other two
races,
History Of Yale-Harvard Races.
For fifty-two years, with occasional
intervals. the crews Of Harvard and
Yale have battled, the rival colors
been borne during all those
years by four-six and eight.oared
crews. In the thirty.eight races that
been rowed in that time, since
the initial contest in 1852, two points
separate the contesting univer-
stiles. Yale having won twenty races
and Harvard eighteen. OF the races
have been rowed on the Thames,
Yale has won sixteen and Harvard
During the early years of the con-
the events were rowed on Lake
Quinsigamond. In 1878, however, the
event was held on the Thames, and
the exception of three years
since that time the event has been an
annual fixture and on the Thames

abandoned as the place for holding
The races in 1869, and in the following
year the crews met at Lake Salton-
stall. The next year Springfield was
chosen for the event, and after that

The captain liked swiftness. That
was why he bought the automobile
He ran it to the limit Of its speed
whenever he rode. SO in love with it
was he that beyond the dreary monot-
oIous daily routine, he gave little at
tention to the doings Of the fort. lie
had forgotten the annual club dance
and was for days unaware of the com
ing Christmas Eve celebration. He
was coursing up toward Wild Horse
canyon when the arrangements were
made.
On that very afternoon as he round

plump toward a lady riding almost as
swiftly as he, but mounted on a hand

horse veered far to the right, but she
sat him like a princess and showed no
sign OF fear.

captain, hating his machine and lift
ing his fatigue cap. She came nearer
and then he knew her-Lieut, Burton
had brought her to the d~ance-she was
a daughter of a wealthy rancher.
Miss Landers smiled and came as
near as her restless horse would con
sent to approach. Hero never saw
IN auto before" she explained; then
rode on with another irradiating
smile.
The following week the .cd automo-
bile was at Miss Landers' door and
she went riding over the level plains
with the captain, He was radiant in
his happiness and was certain that he
had, with his advantage of equipment
and rank, outwitted his rival. But
the happiness was short-lived; for,
riding up by the haunted house on the
crest of the divide a few days later,
he saw two figures on horseback, one
of whom was plainly Burton and the
other evidently Miss Landers. After
that the contest became unfriendly,
and It was war to the knife between
the rivals.
So went the varying favors until the
approach of the holidays, The fort, as
a break In the dullness of winter, pro
posed to have a grand Christmas cele-
bration in the great mess hall, 10
which would be invited all the mem
bers OF the troops at the station. Inc

THE release Of Lieut.. B~urton-and
his presence here" came the quick re-
ply.
There was nothing for it but ODE
dience, and the captain gave the signal.
In a moment there came an orderly
with a young mar in cowboy suit
Lieut.. Burton-and the crowd cheered
as he bowed low to them all.
"But-but-" began the captain,
wonderingly, ARE you-are you
yes" interrupted Miss Landers,
you brought him here yourself, and we
thank you so much. 1t was very kind
Lieut.. Burton bowed low again and
then took Miss Landers' hand. Il, too,
thank you" he added; then in a low
tone, the words being audible only to
the captain; Don't fuss so long on
the way with your auto next time-a
horse is swifter. And, say in almost
a whisper, come to ON wedding, will
you-it's the last Of January"
The orchestra began a waltz; the

floor amid the maze Of white dresses
and uniforms; the huge clock in the

Some hairs from the skin of a young

Unfolding the small piece Of paper that

to get his microscope, which was on a
desk behind him.
While his back was turned a roguish
student quickly swept the hairs of the
desk into his hand, and substituted others
very closely resembling them,

and the other in the flowing, artistic
style of the lieutenant. Which should
she accept? She determined to wait
on events and see where fate led. Fate
seemed very undecided at that point
Of the affair,
No word passed between the captain
and the lieutenant regarding the in
Yitation to Miss Landers, nor was there
any discussion regarding the manner
by which she was to get to the cele-
bration. However, it was the inten-
ton of each to be her personal escort,
But the lieutenant reckoned without a
knowledge of the intensity of the cap
tain'S nature; for when he asked for
leave to so outside the post, the re-
quest came back with the curt indorse-
ment, Refused" That meant that he
must stay at the fort or be subject to
a period in the guard house.
The captain chuckled and patiently
rubbed the brass fittings of his big red
automobile. He looked forward with
much pleasure. TO the coming ten-mile
trip across the smooth prairie roads in
the crisp winter evening, and he smiled
as he thought of the discounted lieu
tenant, compelled to remain at the fort,
At dusk the devil wagon" careened
out Of the high-walled parade ground
and swept down the slope to the bot
ton lands that led away up the Smoky
Hill 10 the Circle Bar ranch, where
Miss Landers was waiting for her es-
cort-wondering all the time which of
the twain would first appear, The
captain, well bundled against the pierre
ing cold, did not look to the south or
he would have seen a rider on horse
back making almost as good time as
he, but keeping in the lee of the blufis
and so out of sight of the casual tray
eler on the main road. This rider was
dressed in cowboy garments, his wide
brimmed hat was tapping in the wind
and his fringed coat caught the steam
of his horses breath, which CONCEALED
into snow-like foam, He took the
short cut up Wild Horse canyon,
around the head of Oak ranch and
saved a mile where a timber claim
caused a wide turn in the roadway
But the sturdy automobile fairly ate
up the road, swinging down the slopes
like mad and hating neither for the
hills nor culverts. Then, just as the
Circle Bar was in sight, its %twinkling
lights telling of the presence OF a wait
ing passenger, there came a sudden
"hiss!" and the captain was awakened
from his dream by a quick turn into
the grass alongside the highway and
a short, uncompromising stop. Moth

the careful inspection of piston and
igniter, the rafting of chains and the
hammering of bots.
The solitary hOrseman Oft in the dis
lance kept on his way and cared not,
if he knew. that the captain was swear
ing at fate and his machine out there
on the wind-swept hills,
But even breaks may be repaired,
and finally, with a grim sentiment OF
revenge, tha captain pulled the lever
out to the limit and raced on his way
toward the Circle Bar.
1t was dark now and the lights in the
front of the automobile were dimmed
by the dust Of the road; hence the
captain did not see until he was at
the very gate that a lady on horseback
was approaching him. When he did
see, it was too late. Her horse gave
d great swerve and, though avoiding
the frlghtsome machine, struck its side
