Successful Fliqht of Airshlp.

Several hundred spectators Thurs
day witnessed the most successful
fight yet made on the testing grounds
of the Aerial Experiment association
at Hammondsport, N. Y. The sue
cessful performer was G. N. Curtiss
in his Junebug aerodrome No. 3. I'm
der his guidance the Junebug flew
LAO yards in sixty seconds. All that
stopped the fight was the limited area
of the practice ground, bounded by
trees and a fence which would have
interfered with the progress OF the
machine, travelling. as it was, at q
height of from three to twenty-tLree
feet above the ground
The performance of the Junebug
and her designer is considered the
most remarkable of its kind on record.
1t was only the seventh flight of the
machine and the eighth attempt of the
aviator. The controls worked per-
fectly in every respect, the machine
having to travel on the arc Of cir
Gle in order to make the distance it
did in field the size and shape of the

Harvard Won University Race

With. a deafening din of steam
whistles and horns and the fren-
zied shouts of collegians at New Lon
don, Conn, the Harvard varsity eight
shot their boat over the finish line,
winning from the crippled and dis
tanced Yale crew that classic of Amer
ican college aQuatics, the Harvard
Yale university boat race. But in
stead of boat race Harvard finished
the Il t mile and half of the race
alone while far behind Yale limped
along with but seven men at the oars,
with Griswold, the stroke-the man
who had been relied upon to set the
winning pace-bent forward, limp and
collapsed from the terrific strain of the
opening two miles.
Up to this unexpected climax 1t had
been a stirring struggle, worthy OF the
best traditions of the old antagonists,
and with a fitting setting of mag
nificent marine spectacle such as has
seldom been equalled along regatta
course for brilliancy and imposing
magnitude.

ments are certified to by Secretary C.

delegations at large were elected In
Idaho, but no notice OF contest against
the seating of the delegation headed
by former Senator Dubois has been re-
ceived.
The committee on convention ar
rangements paid visit to the Audi
torium which was pregnant in results
as far as increasing the seating ca
pacity of the hall is concerned, but
brought woe to Architect Wilson.
That gentleman, with keen profess
sional eye to the beauty and finished
character Of his work, had arranged
the seating capacity in such way
as to produce the most pleasing effect
on the eve of the spectator. In so
doing, however, he had left consider
able amount of vacant floor space,
much of which was in extra width CIV
en- to the aisles.
When the members of the commit
tee visited the hall their eyes at once
fastened upon this extent of empty
floor, and Roger S. Sullivan of Illinois
at once asked If more chairs could not
be placed "It would injure the
scenic effect" replied Mr.. Architect
Wilson.
Mr.. Sullivan in a single energetic
sentence gave vent to the opinion that
what the committee desired was seats,
seats, and then more seats, and that
scenic effect could take its chances or
be taken itself to any place 1t chose
to go.
The other members Of the commit
| tee, whose lives are made burden for
the unceasing demand for tickets, cor
daily supported the criticisms and
contentious of Mr.. Sullivan with the
result that the seating capacity Of the
hall was at once increased from the
original number of II, ,53S to more than
12,500.
The members Of the committee are
now poring over blueprints in an
effort to see if they cannot still further
increase the possible number of ad-
missions. The alterations suggested
also resulted in allowing seventy-five
additional seats for members Of the
| press.
The local committee on convention
arrangements headed by Mayor e. w.

Syracuse Won on the Hudson.
Everything great in the history of
boat racing on the Hudson was swept
back to be merely mediocre by the
wonderful race of the varsity eights
Saturday afternoon.
Syracuse won, leading Columbia by
less than one-third of length, and
Cornell by bare length.
Syracuse's time was 1884 -. The
record, made by Cornell on July z,
1901, is 1855 1-5.
The contest was one Of the fercost
and most interesting in the cieven-
year history of collegiate racing on
the Hudson. For three good miles Of
the four never a slice of water show
ed between the first crew and the
fifth of the varsity shells.
Syracuse also won for the second
successive time the race for the uni
versity four-oared shells for the Ken
nedy challenge trophy, leading the
Pennsylvania crew by nearly two
lengths and covering the two miles in
1882 As. Columbia was third, three
lengths behind Pennsylvania, which
had fouled the Columbia crew in the
last half mile of the contest The
judges disqualified Pennsylvania and
awarded Columbia place honors.
Cornell Workmanship won for the
Ithaca crew the freshman eight-oared
race, after two-mile contest, in which
Wisconsin, Columbia and Pennsyl
vania held the lead at different per-
iods of the race. After the mile and
three-quarters, the contest was never
in doubt, Cornell's smooth and power
full stroke placing her full four
lengths in the lead when the finish
line was crossed.
