TRAFFIC HELD UP
Eclipse Of Sun Keeps Thou

of Eycursionists.

The crowds which usually commence
to go to the shores at 10 o'clock sun
day mornings ware delayed two hours
yesterday on account of the eclipse of
the sun. The morning dawned bright
ly enough but shortly after nine dark
clouds apparently commenced to OBJ
scure the light, creeping over the face
OF the sun. In the west thunderheads
we're seen and the shoregoers looked
layed excursions, The darkness con-
tinued TO creep over the sun, and those
who realized what was happening used
smoked glasses to better see the spec
tacle. Along about 1890 came the
darkest time Of the day, and there was
almost chill In the air People com.
ing out of church were surprised at
the darkness, and many waited think
ing that it was gJing to rain.
But the darkness then began to de-
minsh, and the sun to come out Of the
clouds, The moon made less and less
a hole in the suns light, and by 1916
the eclipse was at an end.
Then the crowds hocked to tho shore.
The humidity was high and in the CEN
ter of the city the atmosphere was
very depressing, The temperature
climbed to IS and hung around there
all day The Rock was visited by 2o,-
600 people in search for cool air but
there was not breeze stirring. The
scenic railway, the roller coaster, the
ticker, in fact everything which s-ve
the slightest sembance Of a breeze
was used to the limit,
At Momauguin during the afternoon
there was a good breeze across the
veranda and this was appreciated by
over a thousand people, The beach
was crowded with bathers and the
water was reported to be comfortabl
Another popular resort which several
thousands visited was the Lighthouse.
Besides the general traffic there were
three or four big picnics In the vicinity,
and at night long string Of cars had
to go down to bring the excursionists
back.

launch for eighteen years and has
seen that number Of races In which
Yale was involved, says that the col

while the crew was badly behind In
some Of the races, in the past, he new
er knew of time When any Of the
men were so done up that 1t was
necessary to take them out Of the
boat. He recalls the race of 1882
when the Yale crew got too near
shore and the boat was retarded by eel
grass and fell behind five boat lengths,
but at that time. when the boat got
Strengthened out again, the crew made
up nearly al of its loss and at The
finish line was only ten feet behind
the Harvard she'll, Capt. Dadmun
says that this will not result so seri-
ously to Yale as some have thought
but the result will be good for uni
versity boating. He thinks that II
Yale won all the races, there would
come time when Harvard would not
care to row. He is OF the opinion that
the Yale crew will be reorganized next
year on a good basis and that the
navy will have strong crew to con-
test on the Thames.
