 cssary Cash.

Washington, Dec. 14,--It is reported now that Georgetown will not havo d crew next year at all There was no varsity eight at PouEhkcepsio last June because of the great expense that the crew has been to Georgetown. Efforts were made to pay up what ls owing rather than to incur further expense. It was hoped that finances would get into such shape that Georgetown might be able to send a boat for the 1909 regatta on the Hud- son. Now however, it appears that, far from sending a crew to the Hud son, the Washington colegians do not intend to support aquatlcs at all.

The TO- suit was In doubt until the last period and 1t was not until Bone pocketed tho leather behind Pence with only three minutes to play that they felt easy and confident of victory. It was game that was replete with good plays and ono that had plenty of ginger to 1t. Excitement at times ran high, and some things occurred that made the fans very hair stand on end Warner sent in a mile a minute shot which carried Fences skull protector over the rear of the cage and nearly made its owner tum- ble somersault after 1t.
 Then big Fred Jeans got whack in the mouth which sent him behind the scenes for a short period. and little | Tommy Holderness tried conclusions Jim McLay's boarding Into match wood, There was something of tho old time polo about the contest. Con-
 siderable nice passing was accom- plished by both teams, Warner was easily the star of the evening, Seldom has the Meriden boy shown to better advantage than he did last night. He won the majority of the rushes, was swift and accurate in driving fer the 1 cage, and picked up and returned good passes from and to Bone.
 Both goal tenders also put up n brilliant game and at times stopped | the hardest kind of shots. Jean open ed the scoring by sending rather simple one past Sutton after nearly fourteen minutes play. No further scoring took place during. the first period It took Warner just one min ute and five seconds to tie the score. The ball bounded out of the cage, struck Pence In the back of the leg and bounded back into the net again. Tean ffty-five seconds later sent ths Bank Wreckers ahead by caging the | ball from the center. The third goal that tied the score was one of tho | prettiest ever taken.

 OF DEEP INTEREST
THE PASSION WAS READ AT THE MASSES AND AGAIN AT EVEN ING ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS TO BE SUNG.

Yesterday was Palm Sunday. It was the beginning of Holy Week, and the Catholic and Episcopal services were of especial interest. The congregations were very large. In the Catholic oh urches palms were blessed and dis tributed to the faithful at last mass.
 Owing to the length of the gospel lesson-the passion according to St. Matthew-appointed to be read on Palm Sunday. the sermon is always dispensed with At St. Pauls the Rev. Father Shultz was the celebrant at high mass yesterday and the Rev. Father Coyle read the passion in Eng fish. At the night services the pas sion according to St. Mark was read m the place of sermon.
 The Tenebrae will be sung by a priest choir at St. Pauls Wednesdays Thursday and Friday nights. and there will be sermon on each of those nights. The Rev. Father Doyle of Ensley will be the preacher wednes- day night, the Rev. Father O'Brien of Bessemer Thursday night. and the Rev. FaPer Lawrence, O. s. B.. of St. Bernard. Friday night
