Proposed Cup Race Between American
and Foreign Crews.

Rowing men are much interested IN
nroposition made by the New York Herald
to offer an international cup to be rowed
for by the representative crews from UNI
yersities Of America, England, France ana
Germany. 1t will be in fact an Anglo
American cup, as the other countries are
not .exnected to cut much Of figure in the
contest.
Local rowing unanimously support the
nronosition. John Hadley Doyle, presi-
dent of the Potomac Boat Club, says: Il
had already thought what an excellent
thing it would be II something could be
done. The colleges which send crews to
Poughkeepsie will welcome the race, as
they have for years desired the question OF
the representative and fastest American
crew settled, in order to put at rest the
mooted question"
Claude r. Zappone of the Georgetown
University, a director Of aquatics OF the
Potomac Boat Club, member OF the ex-
ecutive committee OF the Nauonal Assoc "a
yor of the proposition for an international
race which would correctly represent the
strength Of both Great Britain and
crew at New London should row the win
ming crew at Poughkeepsie, and the win
ner of that event be. sent across the water
to compete with the crew picked out by
England.
He also thinks that the races, for the
purpose of keeping alive interest on both
sides of the water, should be rowed alter
nately on this and the other side of the
Atlantic. If the cup to be rowed for Is
offered here, then the first race should be
rowed here, but after that the location OF
the races should alternate.
John Stewart captain and manager Of
the Georgetown University crew. expressed
himself as heartily in favor Of the sugges-
ton. He said:
."The only question In my mind is whether
Harvard and Yale would consent to relin-
ouish what they perhaps regard as GER
tain prestige or exclusiveness, and consent
to race with the smaller colleges. 1t would
rot necessarily do away with the New Lon
don race, however. Harvard and Yale
could race there and the winner race the
winner at Poughkeepsie, say on neutral
ground.
There Is no question that the interna-
tional racing should be held on either side
of the water alternate years, regardless
of who won the cup"
p. A. Dempsey. who has been the coach
of the Georgetown and other local crews,
spoke enthusiastically of the suggestion for
an American university cup.
II have advocated that for years. or at
least have advocated that principle" he
said. Let the colleges here determine

BOSTON SYMPHONY CONCERT.
wilhelm Gericke Conducts the Organiza'
ton for the Last Time Here.

The Boston symphony Orchestra gave
it's final New York concert of the present
season yesterday afternoon at Carnegie
Hall. The programme consisted of the
overture to Weber's Der Freischutz, y
and Goldmark's ~"Sakuntala' overture;
Schubert's symphony in c major, an aria
from M~arschner's Hans Heiling,' and a
novelty in a ballade composed by +. ).
Converse after keats's poem La Belle
Dame Sans Merci."
Mr.. Converse's composition was COM
pleted in 1902, The composer described the
number as a ballade in the nature of a sym
phonio poem with voice part. The orohes-
trail interludes are also intended to express
the words Of the poem. 1t was in these
that the composer met with ms greatest
slcoass, They are scored with exquisite
delicacy and exhibit an skill
in the command of the means to produce
color and variety in Instrumentation. The
voice part was less interesting. 1t was
somew hat monotonous in effect and lacked
the essential surge of passion. MIR. Bispham,
who has sung the vocal part several times
before, was not in good voice yesterday
He sang also the familiar Marschner ara
beloved of barytones.
The orchestra played with its usual brill
fancy in the other numbers. There was long
continued applause for MIR. Gericke and his
men after the Weber overture, and the con-
ductor was greeted with an enthusiastic
round Of applause when he took his, place
before the orchestra So great was the en-
thusiasm after the Goldmark number that
he was compelled to motion his men to their
feet twice before the audience would allow
the concert to proceed. After the symphony

HOW TO ATTRACT ATTENTION

". NJ. C. A.-TaIks or 1.-THE sun"

The regular weekly powwow of the young
men Of the Bedford branch of the Y. NJ.
c. A., on Gates avenue, Brooklyn, was
made interesting last night by a talk
delivered by Charles +. Southland, adver-
Using manager of A. D. Matthews's Sons.
Mr.. Southland used a number of fine stere-
opticon pictures.
THE Art of Attracting Attention" was
his subject. He showed how the attractive
advertising of to-day was more beneficial
than the advertising of years ago, and in
order to convince his large audience Of
this fact he showed on the sheet a photo
graphed copy OF a page of the first issue
Of The SUN, published in 1888. This showed
a number OF small advertisements. He
then showed a page Of THE sun of to-day,
drawing attention to the great contrast
between the advertisements OF the two
periods.
He told his hearers that THE Sun was
one Of the best written newspapers Of to-day,
il not the best, and that to read it meant
a liberal education. He referred to Jay
Gould as the greatest financier of the age
and said he had stood alone in this respect,
and while he has had many imitators none
ever surpassed him.
Mr.. Southland drew a comparison between
Napoleon Inc President Roosevelt. Ma
poleon, he said. attracted great attention,
but II was always to himself and his
selfish ends, while President Roosevelt at
tracted attention for the things he did to
benefit his fellow man, and he instanced
the great work the President had performed
in the interest OF mankind In bringing about
peace between Russia and Japan.

WASHINGTON, March Ill G. Hemphill,

South Carolina and presented to the Speaker
Of the Hous a pair OF handmade boots

jeans and who followed up the gift with
numerous other articles Of personal adorn-
ment and comfort from his constituents,

and handmade boots, is garbed from crown
to sole in South Carolina raiment.
The boots are Of the style worn by states
men of IN earlier day. They cost SIS and
we're paid for by popular subscription. the
limit Of contribution being one cent.
But" said Mr.. Hemphill in his letter
transmitting the footwear, "the number
fell somewhat short of expectation and
equalled only about the normal Republican
vote in of years. Two courses we're open
under the circumstances, either to follow
the lead Of that great American finanoier,
the Hon. Leslie Nj. Shaw, and declare a
deficit in the treasury or raise the limit:
but no we'll regulated sound money Demo-
crat would adopt the former, and it was
impossible after the game had been called
to do the latter. 1t became necessary
therefore to rely upon the efficacy Of GER
tain undi gested securities to settle the
score. 1t will probably stir your sporting
blood to be told that the humble Repre-
sentative of the people who charged him
self with the performance Of a high, patriotic
service, which must be regarded as oumu-
lative evidence Of a reunited country, did
not suffer at this psychological moment from
an attack Of cold feet"

This condition is no doubt caused by

Therefore, when Peruna was discovered

LAST DAY OF GRAND OPERA.
Singers Say Farewell In Two Perform
ances.

Only the necessity OF allowing Mines
Sembrich and Eames to say good-by' to
the local public could account for the re-
markable programme that Mr.. Conried
arranged for the matinee yesterday after
noon at the Metropolitan Opera House.
The rocco horrors of Sardou set to the
intensely modern music Of Puccini were
displayed in the first and second acts OF
"Tosca," and they could have found no
greater contrast In the operate repertoire
than the second part of the programme,
which comprised the second and part of
the third act of Rossini's n Rarbiere di
Seviglia."
But the audience was large enough to
crowd the theatre and enjoyed both operas
with the same degree Of interest. 1t was
not the operas, however, that interested
the listeners. They we're there to say
farewell to two popular prima donnas.
Nine. Eames was not well me delayed
the beginning of the opera almost half an
hour beyond the appointed time. But the
soprano showed no signs of indisposition
and sang the second act aria with unusual
suavity and beauty of tone. She was re-
peatedly recalled with NJ, Scott at the close
of the opera and bore away her tribute of
flowers. M. Scott, who appeared for the
last time this season, and NJ. DIPPED, who
again displayed his unusual versatility by
singing admirably such diverse music as
Puccini and Rossini in the same afternoon,
had their share of the applause that Puc-
cini's opera awakened.
Nine. Sembrich. who was in beautiful
voice, added a novelty to the familiar per-
Torrance of I'll Barbiere" when she sans
Home, Sweet Home" in the lesson scene
Of Rossini's opera. 1t came in response
to the imperative demand for an encore
after -Vooe di Primavera," which was
really a voice Of spring in its silvery fresh
ness. Nine. Sembrich sang the old song
in English with a depth of feeling that
held the great audience in reverent silence.
The strong outburst at its close brought
out "Ah non guinge,' and the prima donna
disappeared finally from view bearing a
load of roses as big as herself.
Herr knote was the hero of the evening
performance of "Iohengrin." Mines. Rap
pold and Walker and MN. Goritz, Blass and
Mnhlmann were his associates in a per-
Torrance that drew another audience large
enough to leave no room in the opera house
and crowd out the late arrivals in search of
admission tickets. The performance was
admirable in it's familiar features and there
was an especially enthusiastic recall for all
the artists after the second act.
