CORNELL oARsMEN DROPPED.
Coach Courtney Let's Out Good Me1
for the Sake of Harmony.

ITHACA, N. Y, May 1.-THE Cornell
rowing camp was thrown into great con-
fusion yesterday when it was learned that
four of the strongest men in the varsity
ranks had been dropped for the rest of
the year. The entire undergraduate COM
munity is greatly aroused, for it Is the
most remarkable incident In Cornell row.

stroke of the 1909 freshman crew and
eight, have all lost their places, and were
tipped off by the management that they
had better resign. All four quit the train
ing table and stopped rowing.
Coach Courtney says that his action
was prompted in the interests of the crew.
He declared that. although every man
dropped was q good oarsman. they did
not seem to work together with the other
oarsmen. and, as he was expected to turn
out winning crew, there was nothing to
do but to expel them. In the last three
weeks the varsity has gone from bad to
worse. and. despite frequent shifts. they
have been regularly beaten by the second
crew.
To cap the climax the freshman eight
beat them Monday night by 8 seconds in
two miles. This was the straw that
broke the camels back" and the "old
man" Immediately got rid of the men he
deemed responsible. With the Harvard
race only two weeks away, Cornell's sit
uation is very serious. but Coach Court
ney said that. although he might lose at
Cortland. he felt confident that he would
have a f1rst-class crew at Poughkeepsie.
Dissension In the crew is supposed to be
at the bottom of the trouble.

OUR ATHLETES AS
OLYMPIC WINNERS

NEW YORK. May A.-Following the
Pacific coast try-outs which were held
Saturday afternoon at Stanford Unfver-
sty, in California, members. of the Olym-
pic committee were jubilant yesterday
over the fact that everything now points
to winning team to represent the United
States in London in July.
THE only thing that is worrying US
now" said James E. Sullivan. secretary
of the committee, yesterday, lis the pick
ing of the team. That is hard problem.
Within the past month reports have been
received from all over the country stating
that some athlete has been breaking
worlds records in practice. If these re-
ports are true there will be many upsets
when all the try-outs are held, and per-
haps some of those who were looked on
sure winners will Of necessity be left
at home.
"Of course. this will not happen if we
receive enough money. At present We
have sufficient to send a winning team,
but I am in hopes that before the boys
sail on June 81 there will be enough to
send every athlete who has chance OF
gaining point.
While reports of wonderful feats have
been received here, experts who have
heard thousands of these reports before
claim 1t will be the seasoned champion
who will perform best and win out when
the proper time comes.
They say they cannot see how such men
as Shaw. Of Dartmouth and Forrest Smith
son are going to lose in the high hurdles.
Martin Sheridan with the discus. Melvin
Sheppard In the middle distance, McGrath
and Flanagan in the weight events Glar-
ner in the quarter mile, Dray of Yale In
the pole vault. Porter In the high jump.
Ray Ewry in the standing jump. Bellars
and Bonhag in the distance runs. Dan
Kelly in the broad jump, Jim Sullivan In
the mile run. Coe and Rose in the shot
put and Garrels in any of the special
ties he trains for and completes in.
All of these have consistently and per-
sistently shown form that stands out in
itself. and trainers claim nothing less than
serious accidents can prevent them from
making the team.
In the Marathon race America is by no
means left in the ruck. Within the past
year this country has developed long dis
lance runners that are by no means be-
low the average. Mr.. Sullivan believes
we have grand chance of capturing that
event this year.
Up to yesterday more than Sill 900 had
been subscribed to carry the team abroad.
and Mr.. Sullivan expects to have at least
$4,000 by June 10. Judging that 1t will
cost each man from $500 to $500 for ex-
penses from the time he leaves New York.
this amount will enable the committee to
pick from forty to fifty men. With this
number every member of the committee Is
sanguine of success.
The committee has decided to hold the
wrestling try-outs at DR.. Savage's In
stitute, 59th street and Columbus circle.
May % and 81. instead Of May % and 26.
In all probability these try-outs will only
take one night. as the fact that only
natural born or fully naturalized citizens
of America are eligible will keep a num-
Der Of entries away.

CHAPTER xx-Continued.

Wherefore. after the last OF the
mounted fugitives had gone by. those who
were waiting were able to go on theif
own way unnoticed.
They thought 1t wisest. however. not to
take any unnecessary risk. and to that
end made q circuit of the city at great
pains rather than pass through or near
1t. The foragers they sent out discovered
q deserted rancho in valley by the way.
and there found food in the shape Of eggs
and black bread. With that they broke
their fast. and thus were strengthened
to push on. but it was afternoon before
they came into the level country lyine
between the capital and La Boca.
On that side their position was much
more dangerous. and more than once they
saw troops on the move in military order
From which they judged that the worst
of the earthquake had been confined to
the upper regions. that the plain had not
suffered so severely.
made up their minds to remain In cover
till nightfall. when they could resume
their march to the sea under more pro-
pitious auspices. They selected suitable
spot to encamp on. and there babe the
wounded men lie down and sleep. while
spared from duty took their turn of rest
with devout thankfulness.
The hours passed like so many minutes
since they were not molested. and. when
the time came. they went onward again
uncomplainingly. with dropping heads
and aching liHlbs. but all undaunted.
They had to keep the high road at the
start. as, until the moon showed up, II
would have been impossible TO make
Roadway across country. The wind was
with them, and the dust they raised came
after them in a low cloud. But In the
dark that did not matter. and they
trudged along without regarding 1t. hope
growing In the hearts with every mile they
covered.
We've only one more difficulty to ne.
gofiate." Allardyce said to Meggs. in q
low tone. as they two led the way. III
we can get across the pass
Two shadows sprang upon him. two
upon his friend. multitude on the mer
behind. The cooked revolver he was
carrying exploded harmlessly as hi
fought tooth and nail to free himself. Nc
other shot was fired and none was neces
sary. SO complete was the surprise.
He groaned aloud in his great bitterness
Of heart for that they had been captured
after all they had come through and or
the very threshold OF escape.

COURT TENNIS CONTEST.
Miles Defeats Pennell Three Sets to
One in London Finals.

LONDON, May 14.-Eustace Miles de-
feated V. II. Pennell three sets to one
in the finals for the court tennis cham
pionship contest at Queens Club yester-
day; He will therefore be pitted against
Jay Gould of New York for the British
title on May 16.
Mr.. Miles started his play badly by
losing the first set.
Score: As. 6-5. 81. e3.
Miles appeared to be decidedly under
trained, and experts are of the opinion
that unless he shows considerable I'M
provement he will have little chance OF
wrestling the title from Mr.. Gould.
A draw occurred in connection with the
tennis contests to be played out during
the Olympic games. The preliminaries
are to be played at Queens Club next
week. The only entrants were Ameri-
cans and Engnshmen. In the first round
Jay Gould drew bye. Charles E. Sands
OF New York is to play against Eustace
Miles.
