ously bad logic

Speaking of the decision of the Court
of Errors and Appeals about pigeon
shooting, we said last week: 80 the last
of the cruel sports that were sanctioned
by law is now done away with in New
Jersey We were wrong: there might
be a four-mile rowing race in this State,
says the Newark Sunday Call" Read
ing the reports of the race between Har-
ward and Yale last week, who will say
that there can be any more cruel and
barbarous pastime than this? Men stroye
through the long course until they could
not pull another stroke. and then tainted
in ,he boat. finally being lifted oat in a
helpless state. 1t was not test Of skill,
but one in which at last only endurance
counted. A two-mile race, three miles at
the most, would have made reasonable
contest. and four-mi.e struggle was
both foolish and highly dangerous.
