INTERCOLLEGIATE
 REGETTA WEDNESDAY

Poughkeepsie, N. Y., June 25.-On the eve of the great intercollegiate re- getta to be held on the Hudson to- morrow, Poughkeepsie is buzzing with excitement and popular interest has reached a high pitch. Never before has so much uncertainty attached to the issue of the annual contest be- tween the picked crews of the great universities. The advent of the An napolis naval academy boys has brought new factor into the race, although unprejudiced dopesters be- lieye that the incipient admirals have little chance of being the victors. Pe- culiar weather conditions have retard- ed training and made it necessary for the crews to do heavy work of deVel- opment on the river instead of taking advantage of their stay here as an oc- casion for polishing up. This sltua- tion has made it almost impossible to arrive at any correct estimate of the form the oarsmen will show in the regetta.
 In the varsity eight, which will be over the usual course of four miles, crews have been entered by Pennsyl- yania, Annapolis, Cornell, Columbia Syracuse, Wisconsin and Georgetown. Freshmen eights will compete at two miles from all of these institutions except Georgetown. Four cared sheliS at two miles have been entered by all except Annapolis and Georgetown. The number of varsity eights assem- bled here is the largest in the his tory of intercollegiate rowing in this country.

A Penny Saved.

When Benj jamin Franklin wrote "A penny saved is q penny earned" he did not mean a penny skimped from our daily living or from our necessi- ties. That is not "a penny saved ill the best sense. It is penny stolen from yourself. A penny saved is q penny rescued from waste. An hour taken from needed sleep is not an hour saved, but an hour stolen. An hour taken from idle gossip and turned to some good account--that is an hour saved. And it is the same way with our money and our products. There is no economy in self denial. It is the duty of every man and woman to live the fullest and best life possible, to get the most they can out of life, to nourish the body and mind and soul and to develop them to the highest possible degree This cannot be done by skimping. Economy is necessary, but we must not mistake what econ- >,my is. We must save the wastes, stop the leaks; but, having saved, we must put our savings to some good use else we are like the miser with his gold-a detriment to society instead of q agood.-Exchange.

Costly Keys.

One thousand seven hundred pounds was the sum given by Count Adolphe de Rothschild for what may be said to be the most valuabl key in the world. It is marked with the arms of the Strozzi family and is believed to be the work of the great Italian artist Benvenuto Cellinl, who flourished in the sixteenth century. The key is chs- eled out of block of steel, presenting two grotesque female figures and orna- mented with various masks and scrolls. Another costly key, which formerly be- longed to the Medici family, is in the South Kensington museum, London The upper part of the bow rests upon a square temple, inclosing a standing figure, exquisitely chiseled, holding a shield. The pipe consists of a column with a Corinthian capital.

The London Police Whistle.

What is the most powerful weapon a man can carry against the possible dangers of nocturnal London? For general utility and for special emer- gencies you cannot-at least such is one night rambler's experience-beat the ordinary police whistle In addi- tion to it's services as a cab caller--one for a growler, two for a hansom--there are times, happily extremely rare when 1t may prove tower of strength One such occasion the writer can re call. About two hours after midnight in a quiet byway. An agitated elderly gentleman at an open door, which he is afraid to enter. The lock has been forced, and within may be-burglars! Have you seen policeman? No. But three blasts on the whistle and the de- serted pavement swarms with them. From every corner one arrives, and the house is surrounded. The home going citizen knows not by what forces he is encompassed till he sounds that whistle in his or some one else's emer- gency.-London Standard.

The Sphinx.

The word sphinx is from the Greek and means the strangler and was ap'
 piled to a fabled creature of the Egyp- tians which had the body of lion, the head of a man or an animal and two wings attached to its sides. In the Egyptian hieroglyphs the sphinx sym- bolized wisdom and power united. It has been supposed that the fact that the overflow of the Nile occurred when the sun was in the cancellations Leo and Virgo gave the idea of the com binations of form in the sphinx, but this idea seems quite unfounded. In Egypt the refgning monarch was usual ly represented in the form of a sphinx.

When the Snuffbox Wen% Round


 A curious characteristic Of the earlier days of club life was the almost uni versal practice of snuff taking and it's very slow replacement by the use of tobacco. It was part of a gentleman's education to manipulate a snuffbox ele- gantly, and the possession of number of costly specimens of these receptacles was indispensable, explaining why snuffboxes of every variety in gold. silver, enameled and jewel incrusted, are nowadays so largely found among the curiosities of the collector. There were snuffboxes kept full in every room in the clubhouse. and the ire quent call for it by an irritable old member was one of the hits in Bull wer Lytton's play Money" The sup ply of snuff was made gratis to men- bers. The cost amounted to f20 or ESQ a year. and as the indulgence in tobacco iii this form gradually gave way to that of smoking the expendi- ture was thought unnecessary.-Fort- nightly Review.
