Crane raced with splendid consistency
from the first dash at the Chain Bridge
For the first mile he shared the lead
with several fast. aggressive competitors
including Hutchinson, Harry 8. Wood,
and Norman Geare. and for a time II
appeared he was doomed to a secondary
place When the Three Sisters were
passed. however, Crane slowly but surely
forged ahead.
/ He swan evenly, and made every
stroke tell, and when the last mile Of
the race opened, II was easy to see he
would be returned winner. The hotfila
of canoes closed in on him, and the gap
between him and Hutchison wfdened,
with the others far behind He seemed
to gain strength for a squirt as the finish
line, almost directly below the Aqueduct
Bridge, approached, and made faster time
In the last 200 yards than at any other
point In the race.
Hutchinson, who did not race under
club colors, finished In advance Of the
others In 1:52:50, but the race for third
place between Harry 8. Wood and Bar
ton A. Bean, jr., of the Nautilus Club,
was q matter Of inches only. The race
was nip and tuck for the final 100 yards
Wood finished in 1:53 and Bean three
seconds later. The others finished In the

| a special racing engine will be installed.
1t will be twenty horsepower. and It Is
| expected to run the boat at twenty-five
miles an hour. something no other boat
| this size has ever done with the same
horsepower engine.
The first trials Of the boat will be
made in two weeks on the Potomac in
front of the Corinthian Yacht Club. Mr..
Paddock said that in other racing boats
the stern sinks down in the water. but
with this new hydroplane the stern will
rise to a level keel with the bow. The
greater the speed the higher the boat
will rise from the water. He also said
that there are 200 siphons under the
hull, which makes the craft very light.
One of the most popular camps up the
river is the "Krazy Kamp," situated on
the Virginia shore, about a quarter Of a
mile above the Aqueduct Bridge. One Of

thusiasts to be "Washington's Henley
of 1871
The winding strip of limpid water be-
tween the Chain Bridge and the Aqueduct
Bridge was the race course, more than
three miles in length. and from end to
end it was all a-fiutter with canoes
shimmering with color, swapping motor
boats, RATS, and floats, all surrounding
the muscular swimmers in their slow
but steady progress with the current,
cheering on their favorites, all throbbing
with excitement
The Longest Race.
1t was the longest swimming race held
in the District of Columbia in some
years. With q mighty burst of speed,
William L. Crane, of the Nautilus SWIM

an eighth of a mile ahead of James P.

Of the winner was one hour and forty

With everything in readiness the spe-
cial lantern parade Of canoes which will
be held under the auspices Of the Wash
ington Canoe Club next Saturday night
will undoubtedly be not only the mos
successful, but the most beautiful water
carnival ever held in Washington. Com
modore W. A. Rogers, of the Washing.
ton Canoe Club, who is in charge of the
affair, stated yesterday that a large
number Of canoes will be entered from
each club.
4, The parade will start below the Ana
lostan Boat Club, and, after making q
number of fancy circles and evolutions
Of different descriptions, will end at
Moore's boathouse, which is situated
Just above the Washington Canoe Club.
Every one is invited to enter the parade
whether they belong to a local boat club
or not. There is no entrance fee.
Commodore Rogers will tow a num-
Der of canoes down to the starting point
from the Washington Canoe Clubhouse.
Commodore Rogers deserves much credit
for the splendid arrangements, as Wash
tngton has not seen a water carnival of
this kind for over two years. 1t Is ex-
pected that over a hundred canoes win
be entered in the parade. The parade
will start at o'clock.
Before the parade next Saturday the
Analostan Boat Club will hold It's second
regatta Of the season, and judging from
the number of members who have sig
nifed their intention of entering, It will
undoubtedly be as successful as the last
one. held July 13. The feature of the
programme will be some special SWIM
ming Faces. The other races will include
single, double, and four-oared shells and
canoes. The programme will start at 4
