After Desperate Struggle.
II probably the greatest rowing race
ever seen in this country Cornell Uni

aquatic event over the Poughkeepsie
course on the Hudson River recently.
Columbia University made desperate
fight for the honor and was beaten
only by three feet The two crews
rowed side by side for four long. hard
miles and the men in both boats were
thoroughly exhausted az the finish.
Columbia's grand showing was a big
surprise, as it was figured that the
struggle lay between Cornell and the
Annapolis crew. The navy could DO no
better than third. Pennsylvania was
fourth, Wisconsin fifth and Georgetown
sixth. Syracuse did not finish, her
shell being swamped in big swell.
The wafer was unusually rough and
some of the cOntenders were badly
handicapped by their shells shipping
water.
Cornell won by a magnificent burst
Of speed in the last ten strokes, the
nose of her shell just sweeping across
the finish line ahead of the New York
ers. But from the first dip Of the oars

Mrs. Eddy Transfers Entire Estate to

Mrs. Eddy Transfers Entire Estate to
 Trustees. Who Will Fight Suit. CONCORD. \. H.. April 3.--A motion for leave to intervene. involving the substitution of duly appointed trus- tees as plaintiffs in place of the next friends was the answer of Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy, founder of the Chris tion Science religion. made through her counsel. in the suit brought to com pei an accounting of her property. The motion. which was filed, came as . distinct surprise.
 By a deed of trust Mrs. Eddy has transferred her entire estate. with a few minor reservations, to three trus' tees Henry NJ. Baker of Bow. Archi- bald Mcclellan of Boston and Josiah F. Fernald of Concord. These trustees are bonded to the extent of $500.000 that they will preserve and protect her estate.
 It Is now claimed that Mrs. Eddy cannot he compelled to appear in court in connection with the pending litiga- tion. The trustees are empowered to prosecute and defend for the benefit of the estate of Mrs. Eddy any suits at law or in equity. whether now pending or that may afterward be brought with reference to any matter in which she may personally be interested. With the exception of Mir. Mcclellan the trustees are not believers in her cult.
 They sny that Mrs. Eddy has relieved herself of the care of her estate that she may devote herNtime and thought without interruption to advancing the cause of Christian Science.
 ExsSenator Chandler. senior counsel for the relatives of Mrs. Eddy. said:
 .The new trust is trick contrived by the jailers of Mrs Eddy to avoid a receivership. which may he ordered by the court Iu the face of our claim that Mrs. Eddy is not fit to do business they make her sign deed by which she admits the truth of our claim. and under this deed they seize all her prop erty.
 "The validity of this performance four days after the suit was brought will be inquired into in court"
