With the river as calm as glass and
with ideal rowing conditions everywhere

five eignt-oared crews on the water at
one time working under Coach Dempsey.
The two varsity and two prep boats of
Georgetown and a she'll from the Poto-
macs made up the feet which rowed up
and down the course for over an hour
During this time only one brush took
place, but the crews continually kept
close together and their pretty work
evinced great admiration from the on
lockers.

TASK FOR THE MIDDIES.
Will Be Asked to Row Five Boat
Races in Five Weeks.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, March 14.-With the
prospects of five varsity races within five
weeks, the Naval Academy crew has a
task before it which is unparalleled in the
history of college rowing in the United
States. The races definitely scheduled
are: Harvard, April %; Columbia, May &;
Georgetown, May IA, and Syracuse.
May q.
The university of Pennsylvania has
declined to row April 80 and has asked
for date in May. The academy manage
ment will ask Georgetown to row April
80 and will offer May IA to Pennsylvania
should the Washingtonans agree.
The string of four races in five weeks is
thought to be unprecedented, except for
a similar performance of the midshipmen
few seasons ago, but the five contests
which will be on the list If Pennsylvania
rows will be the greatest number of races
ever undertaken by college crew in this
country in so short a period.

STATES FUNDS RATHER SHORT.
Sum in State Treasury insufficient to
Meet Maturing Obligations.

Columbia, Dec. 2.-The State of
South Carolina will have to meet OBJ
legations to the extent of approx
mately s50O,O00 by January 1. There
is only about $4,000 in the State
Treasury at present. The county
treasurers are behind in sending in
the tax money to the extent of about
$4,000, as compared with this date
last year.
On December 80 four notes aggre-
eating 100000, will fall due. The
interest on the State debt amounts
to $l45,0O0. The running expenses
of the State Government for two
months will also have to be paid.
The sum of 100000 has been bor-
rowed by the State during the year.
The tax levy for this year was 5 3-4
mills. 1t is not thought that the
next general assembly will have to
increase this amount. The borrow
ing of money means that the State
Government has to mortgage its
taxes for running expenses.
