WILL SEE START OF RACES.

Several South Chicago Yachting en-
thusiasts journeyed down town this
morning to see the start of the six
teenth annual yacht race to Michigan
City. Ind, from the Chicago Yacht
clubs headquarters. There are in the
neighborhood of ITO boats in the har-
Dor awaiting their call to speed to the
front, and If possible TO get an adj
vantage. There are separate races for
every class of craft and large and
small yachts are entered in the races.
The "Kazook," a forty-footer, owned
by Gilbert Spring of Parkside, is ex-
pected to land first honors in this
class, although the Wizard and the
Cayeuse will give her a close run for
first money.
Probably the best trained crew in the
Jackson Park lagoon is that of the
Wizard, for on board her not a man
outside of the captain makes a sug-
gestion during the time the boat Is in
the water
The first starts will be made from the
'C. Y. c. at 8 o'clock this morning and

HARVARD COACH HAS PROBLEM

Red Top, Conn, June 19.-Coach Jim
Wray of the Harvard crew is dissatis-
fed with the present form shown by
Lunt, No A., and he removed that mem
Der of the varsity at the row this even
ing and seated himself in she'll in that
position. Lunt watched while Wray
pulled oar No. 4 for brisk quarter
mile, and was then given his seat again.
1t is too late to make any changes in
the Harvard crew. Wray has made none
for three months, but Lunt's blade
work has been off color. He is a var
sity veteran of a year ago and is ex-
pected to round into shape by race day.
At morning and evening practice the
Harvard rowing consisted of about
three miles for all the crews. No
time work was possible because of the
rough water. Tomorrow night all the
crews will probably be sent over their
racing distance. Stewart Shiletto of
Cincinnati, father of the freshman s,
bow oar, arrived tonight.

OF HOBART CHARACTER
Sam Malone Drops Dead on
Main Street Was 65
Years Old.
LIVED WITH NIKE ORMOND
Had Returned From Poor House Two
Weeks Ago-Is Survived By
Sister and Brothers.
LIVED With MIKE ORMOND

and former inmate of the county poor
farm, dropped dead on Main street be-
tween the E. ]. and E. tracks and the
Nickel Plate tracks yesterday after
noon at 2:30 o'clock.

sudden death was caused by the heat
Malone was in weakened condition,
having had long sessions with his
friend, John Barleycorn. Two weeks
ago he returned from the poor farm
where he had been spending the time
ever since he had quarreled with his
better half, Mike Ormand, last winter.
While the quarrel last winter between
the two old bachelors who were living
together, caused as much of sensa-
ton as a divorce scandal in the four
hundred circle in New York, the two
old cronies made up and again live to-
gether, each bearing the others faults
and praising each others virtues.
The two men, each of whom is So
years old, were very popular in Hobart,
where everybody overlooked their &c
centricities and loved them for being
"a man for a. that"
Malone was seen falling to the street
but by the time several people had
reached his side, life was extinct. The
remains were removed to Wild's un-
dertaking establishment, where the in
quest was held today.
The deceased has relatives living in
Aetna, one sister who is married, and
two brothers The funeral arrange
ments have been made only in so far
as to decide on Monday for the burial
day.

Finally he Strengthened one out for
a single. Then Thoney hit one, and
then owen hit the bench with a dull
thud, and Walsh took the hill to get
the side out.
The Bostons had scored three runs of
Owen in the mint hand needed only
two more to tie the score but when
Walsh got to the job the doings were
ended in large hurry, for Denny Sui

historic stake.
Scoring in the easiest of fashion, the
big son Of Voter nevertheless set a
new record for the race and for the
course. He won in 2:03. which shat

that the finishing blow was landed the
fight was even, with Barry rushing
matters.
In the first round Barry landed left
TO the jaw and followed with right
to the chin. The blows were hard, but
they did not seem to bother Langford
very much. Barry began to bore in,
driving both hands to the body, and
Langford contended himself with send
ing over vicious right and left hooks
to the jaw.
