New London, June 29.-Harvard' S

day before the greatest crowd that
ever gathered here on race day.
Coming after years of defeat, the vic
tory was particularly sweet to the
crimson. Il was great Yale team
that Harvard defeated, a crew that
had broken all records in practice
and went to the stake boat a favor
ite. Tonight Harvard's JOY is un-
confined.
Harvard won, but Yale rowed a
race that will live long in the annals
of college sports. Not only from the
start but until the last sixteenth of
a mile did the shells cease to lap each
other. The men in the rival boats
could see each other for more than
three miles and a half and first one
coxswain and then the other called
upon his crew. Harvard really got
the lead when the killing pace proved
too much for Yale'sNmen. In the
final spurt, Bouton and Noyes were
done, their oars Utterly slipped away
from them. Harvard began to open
up clear water, and in the last ten or
fifteen strokes she pulled away. Noy-
es, Yale's No. 6 absolutely exhausted,
began to miss the stream on the catch
and swung through the air. He sat
up until the flag dropped, and then
fell backward into the boat. Chase.

state of intoxication near the Pres
byterian church late yesterday after
noon and was brought to jail. He
sobered up along toward evening and
1t was then that he began planning
his escape.
Some time ago several prisoners
who had In some manner been pro-
vided with poker attempted to dig
through the wall but were stopped
when they had gotten half way
through. The hole has never been
filled in and it has been a sore tenn
ptation to many prisoners since who
have seen the half dug hole and
wished for a crowbar or poker.
Sanders too, probably looked at
the hole and sighed for a crow bar.
but he didn't wait for one to put in
its appearance to begin operations.
In looking around the jail the only
instrument he could find which was
hard enough to Withstand the bricks
was a piece of the top of the stove in

The firemen heard him almost as
soon as he had set to work but con-
ceived of the plan of letting him dig
out and rearrest him when he had
gotten through the hole in the wall
and were outside within high board
fence around the jail yard. The men
of the fire department were all lined
up against the fence looking through
the cracks between the boards watch
ing the work of their prisoner. San
ders finally opened up quite a good
sized hole and as he was not large

through Another man started
through, but being of larger size
was unable to make 1t and Sanders
and he began to enlarge the hole.
Just then one of the fire boys
laughed at somthing one of the them
said and Sanders discovered that he
was being watched. Chief Rogers
then jumped the fence and leveling
his gun at the prisoner telling him to
throw up his hands. When Sanders
caught sight of the gun his hands
shot up in the air as If they had
suddenly become electrified and in
order to get them as high as he could
he stood on his tip toes. Sanders
and his companions who before had
been allowed the freedom of the en-

water on Bouton, and when aoin
swain Berkelow yelled vast Bou-
ton fell forward on his oar.
Harvard won the race by less than
two lengths and a half. Her time
was 23:O2; Yale's time was 20; II.

Then at the word the crews ripped
their oars through the water and shot
away on what seemed equal terms.
After the first few strokes. Yale had
a tri6e the better of it but soon the
noses of the boats were right in line.
This lasted almost for half a mile

men had been instructed never TO lose

BY the time the first half mile nag
was reached however, Yale had drop

Harvard was getting a little the pet

When the crews got down to their
gait their shells Travelled better ana
they gained little but this adyant-
age was not for long. Harvard put
on steam and the boats finished the
mile and half on even terms. fale
effort, however, began to tell on her
men Just before the end OF the hrst
two miles, and Bouton dropped the
stroke back to twenty-nine. When
Filley saw this he quickly put up mis-
strokes to thirty-two and at the navy
yard he once more had his crew in the
lead. Yale put her stroke back TO
thirty and held 1t over the third mile.
.As soon as Filley had taken the lead
away from Yale he let his stroke
down to thirty, and at this gate both
crews passed the two and one-half
mile flag and the three mile flag.
Half a mile from the finish Yale
dropped her stroke to twenty-eight
from sheer exhaustion, while Harvard
still held hers at thirty. For quar-
ter of a mile further Yale Kept Har-
ward from increasing her lead, Dut
over the next and the last quarter OF
a mile Harvard began to slip away
from her rival little by little. A
quarter of a mile from the hnish
Bouton raised his stroke to thirty
two. where he gamely held 1t for a
short distance. as Harvard raised

DROWNED IN A DITCH.
Little FissIer Boy Thought to Have
Fallen in Irrigation Ditch
and Drowned

Little Emil Fissler. the 4-year-old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. A. b. Fissler
has been missing from his home,
about six miles west of Grand Juunc-
tion, since last evening and his par
ents believe that he has been drown
ed.
The boy was last seen about four
O'Clock yesterday afternoon when he
was playing along the bank of the
deep high line canal which runs near
the Fissler home. The little fellow
was entirely alone when last seen
and no one in the neighborhood has
been able to find any trace of him
since.
His parents missed him when sup
per time came and when he didn't
show up at once they though he had
only gone over to n neighbors to play
with their choldren. but when 1t was
found he had not been there. and as
the hours grew later and he did not
put in his appearance, his par enta
became truly alarmed.
They inquired diligently all over
the neightborhood but the only trace
of him was the information given by
a neighbor that he had seen the little
fellow playing on the bank of the
stream late in the afternoon. The
fear that he had fallen in TO ditch
where he had been playing and was
drowned, gradually dawned upon
the minds of his parents and they
commenced Immediately to drag the
ditch in search of the body
All night long n party composed OF
the little fellows parents and neigh
bors dragged the stream for many
miles down the stream but no trace
of their lost child could be found.
Parties of friends took up the work
when day came but so far the body
has not yet been found and no trace
of him has been discovered. The par
ents have telephoned authorities at
Fruita. where search parties have
been organized but without results
While the parents fear the worst
that their child has been drowned
yet they appreciate the fact that
he may only have run away and
gotten lost and in that case will be
found in time The many friends OF
the grief stricken family are doing all
they can In trying to restore the lost
child to its parents and believe thai
by evening will have found somt
trace of him. The accident occur

the current is very strong just at this

ENrBEzzLER GETS FORTUNE.
Special to The Sentinel.

optNidl 70 ne sentinel
Denver. June 29.-It has been
learned that Mrs. Belle Edwards, a
wealthy resident Of Denver, who was
found dead in chair at her room
in the Eleventh avenue hotel yester-
day morning had bequeathed s50,-
600 to Bert Mellen. the former teller
of the international Trust company,
who is now serving a term in the
state penitentiary for embezzlement.
Mrs. Edwards when she learned
that Mellen was guilty of appropriate
ing S2J, 900 of the banks funds to
his own uses. changed her will and
left the fifty thousand to the Christ
ian science church of which she had
long been a member.
At first she would not believe Mel
len was guilty. She had done con
siderable business with the bank and
Mellen by his pleasant manner and
never failing courtesy had won firm
place in her affections.
Heart failure caused Mrs. Edwards
death. Two wills are in existence.
one leaving Mellen $4,000 which is
in the possession of the officials of
the bank and the later one being
found among her possessions. 1t is
possible that the first may be declar-
ed the legal one and thus Mellen will
get the money originally intended
for him. Mrs. Edwards was 60 years
old and had no known relatives.
