DRINKING

Be that as it may, if you take our advise you'll drink tea, coffee or cocoa, because doctors and others in authority say the city water is lust as harmless in its present state as if 1t were odorless. And by the way, our buttermilk which is the Pasteurized quality is one of the healthiest beverages there is. It's two cents per glass or if you take 1t away it's three cents per quart.

HARVARD CREW
SHOWS GOOD FORM

BOURNE END. Eng, August 1s.-The
Harvard and Cambridge crews showed good
form in their practice this morning. The
Cambridge men were out first. and rowed
from NARROW Point to Bourne End. two
miles $50 yards, in IL minutes IS seconds.
A strong cross wind was blowing at the
time and several of the oarsmen were dis
tressed at the finish.
The Harvard crew padded to NARROW
Point by easy stages, and, turning, alter
nately rowed and padded over the full
three and a. quarter mile course to Cook
ham. stroking 20 and 80 to the minute.
Their time 70 the Bourne End railway
bridge was Ii minutes and 26 seconds, and
to Cookham Is minutes and 10 seconds. In
the trials for the last intervarsity race the
Cambridge crew rowed to the same points
in respectively 10 minutes 81 seconds and
IL minutes seconds.
Richardson has nearly recovered from the
gastric trouble from which he Is suffering,
but 1t Is uncertain when he will resume his
place In the boat. Glass is not likely to
row Just yet. although the water on his
knee Is disappearing.
The rowing methods Of the Americans are
the subject Of much interesting criticism

CASTLEMAN MAY
ABANDON DOUGLAS PARK

SARATOGA, N. Y. August 1s-Breckin-
ridge Castleman of Louisville, president OF
the new Douglas Park Racing Association,
is here during the racing season.
The Douglas Park track is the plant built
at great cost by Louis Celia and his associ-
ates. and 1t promised at one time to be the
cause Of continued warning among the turf
interests Of the state. It Is fast nearing
completion and despite the friendly at
tempts of the Churchill Downs people to
secure an agreement to an equal division
OF time. Celia recently announced his de-
termination to hold a meeting there begin
ming the LIST of September and lasting Into
the middle Of October.
Mr.. Castlenan accepted the presidency OF
the Douglas Park track shortly after the
advent Of the Celia interests into Louisville.
but he has had nothing to do with the
course followed by the st. Louisan and his
partners, and his connection, in fact, has
been practically nothing more than the
lending Of his name to the enterprise.
IL am just the nominal president" said
Mr.. Castleman, land do not think I will
be that long. I will probably be compelled
to spend large part of next year in New
York and will be here at the time when It
is planned to give the meeting at Douglas
Park, SO that think It highly probable that
my connection with the association will
cease"

among British experts. 1t has been said
they cannot row in rough water. but In the
few spins at their racing pace they have
cleared the water well with a high feather
which occasioned little splashing. Mr.. Hut
tlebury, one of the most expert OF the
English coaches thinks the American mode
of dipping the oars a disadvantage to them
and considers the English method of chop
ping the water superior. He contends that
the blade being put in at an angle so slices
the water that loses more power than II 1t
were put in in an upright position. Several
expert English oarsmen share this opinion.
Guy Nickalls. well-known oarsman. ad-
versely criticises the stretchers used in the
Harvard boat. He considers that the angle
at which they are placed does not allow
the men to get the full strength of their
legs, which throws too much work on their
arms.

MOTOR VEHICLE SHOW
TO BE HELD IN DECEMBER

NEW YORK, August 1s.-Following the
announcement that the AutomobiI. Club of
America will conduct an open exhibition for
motor vehicles in the Grand Central Pal
ace December 1 to 8 next comes the news
that a special effort is to be made by that
organization for a wide representation of
new foreign models. The club show will
open in advance of the Paris automobile
salon, and, according to prominent import
ers, the 1907 models Of foreign cars are so
well advanced that both shows will be well
supplied with the new European models.
A. de Maquin, who has recently returned
from France, said he believed that the prin-
cipal foreign makers would have new models
ready in ample time for the show in the
Grand Central Palace. The earlier dates
OF the exhibition, he said. would be con-
ducive to immediate deliveries of limousines
and winter cars and the booking of orders
for early spring deliveries Of the touring
type.
