preparation for the final finishing touches.
 Bob Cook the old Yale coach once threatened to stop crew rowing aff- CT 1t had been sent away for four miles, when he found that a news paper man was putting down the time of the start. In those days there was little regard for the truth in announcing the results of time rows It became necessary for one cores pendent to hire a man to watch at Thames river bridge to get the time of start or finish and the one at the other end of the course would catch the time. Returning to the city the two would have a reasonably correct record of the row.
 Invariably the time taken by the correspondent and his assistants would vary with that announced by the crew management. It was usually better than that given out at the training quarters, the idea of surprise being always in view by the coaches It was frequently possible, too, to learn at Red Top the time made by Yale in practice or at Broadview the time made by Harvard, which usually diff fered from the time reported from friendly sources.

NO MORE SECRECY
 OVER CREW PRACTICE
Old Times in This Respect On the
 Thames Are Gone.

When Yale invited Harvard to
 watch her crews row and Harvard
 reciprocated on the following even
 ing it was a courtesy unprecedented
 in racing practice on the Thames.
 Along the river bank in the squad of
 newspaper men and among the old
 trainers the time can be recalled when
 the rival oarsmen not only did not
 invite their opponents to watch them
 but took pains to prevent their work
 being observed.
 The conclusion was reached after it
 was rememb bered that for several weeks
 the oarsmen of the great universi-
 ties had received about all of the in
 struction they can be given. It would
 be impossible for them to change their
 stroke, even if it was found imprac-
 tical There is not the slightest op-
 portunity of any knack of waterman
 ship being left unlearned by either
 side to be acquired from observation of the opposing crew in action. The Harvard oarsmen and coaches have given good deal of study to the Yale oarSnen and strokes and the Yale oarsmen and coaches the same.
 It was not always so. Within a de- cade the different camps have secuted to post themselves on both weak and strong points of their rivals much the same as two armies might spy upon each other. The establishing of a new i view practice has probably not les sened the spirit of rivalry bit, but may lend a more manly aspect to col lege rowing tactics.
 It is a fact that within a few years a bit of practice, intended for time row, was suddenly called off by the coach of one crew when the launch of ! opposing crew hove in sight and steamed up too close to be considered polite. The oarsmen rested at the command of the coach and when the rival launch lay to the shell was sent away in short stretches toward the | boathouSe
 1 Twenty years ago the substitute oarsmen in either camp after a cer- 1 tain point in training at which 1t was ! practically certain they would not be
 used, devoted themselves to a system of spying on the opposing crews. From l hidden points along the river the | spies, with marine glasses and stop | watches, noted the stroke, general ap- 1 pearance and watermanship of the crews as they rowed It is within
 easy memory that most of the late times the crews came back to their | floats after dark having been subjected 1 to grueiling work by their coaches in

Home Treatment for
 SaElow, Wrinkled Skin

A. .. r. asks: What should I do for my salloW complexion. and how can get I'd of my WrlnkleS?

HISTORICAL NAVAL RELIC
WILL BE PRESERVED.

The historic old ship Portsmouth
probably will end her days in San
Francisco bay, where in 1876, under
command of Captain Montgomery,
she assisted in the conquest of Cali
fornia and flew the American flag on
the grounds now occupied by Ports
mouth square.
A clause in the naval bill PASSED
by the house Wednesday provides for
turning the vessel over to the state
of California if the state will arrange
to have the ship towed from Norfolk,
Va, where she now is, to San Fran
cisco. The senate undoubtedly will
agree to the clause.
1t will be necessary for the state
legislature TO make an appropriation
for the expense of transferring the
vessel and then the California delega-
ton can arrange with the navy de-
partment for sending the ancient
relic to San Francisco. This prob
ably will be done and the Portsmouth
will be towed through the Panama
canal to San Francisco. Represen-
~tatiyes Knowland and Raker during
the naval debate urged the house to
agree to the clause. Raker introduce
ed the original bill.

ROCHESTER, SHOOTING HAS
VIRGINIA MAN As ITS VICTIM,

Ben Swago, formerly of Swago &
Mitchell, proprietors up to a short
time ago of the Bon Ton cafe in Vir-
ginia City, was shot in a fight at the
new camp of Rochester and was
dangerously wounded. His assailant
is said to be one Bert Scott of Trn-
kee, who is a bar tender at the new
Sacramento saloon just opened at
the camp.
Scott was to tend bar for Swago,
Mitchell and Fouts, the later being
OF Reno, and the fight started in the
saloon over an alleged misunder-
standing over money matters. IL is
said that the two men left the saloon
to settle their differences outside.
and the outcome of which was the
shooting of Swag in front of the
Brooks Hill saloon on the main
treet of the camp. The bullet was
from a 3S caliber revolver, and en-
tered Swago's side just below the
noatlng rib. The wound is a nasty
one, and being fired at close range
the bullet imbedded itself deeply in
the victims body.
sWago's condition Is not favorable
ana much uncertainty exists as Ia
the outcome. 1t is said that Scott
was placed under arrest Immediate
~ and was held under $4,000 bond

shooting serape to occur at the now

CONCERNING ROCHESTER,.

The New York Mining Age in an
editorial on the present and future
prospects of Rochester, says:
There are undoubtedly two or
more large veins in the camp which
indicate that ore bodies of consider
able size will be developed in them.
1t Is too much TO expect that the
sensational values reported from the
grass roots will be found to represent
any considerable tonnage. and while
the probabilities are that these large
veins may open important bodies OF
milling ore of a good grade. this will
of course be merely a matter of de-
yelopment. Competent authorities
state that surface indications at a
number of places are good and prom
Use that the district will contain
some important mines. This fits In
well with conditions. as they usually
prevail throughout the state of Ne
yada. but can by no means be taken
to indicate that the hundreds OF
hastily incorporated companies,
some of which have already made
their bow. will necessarily be a
source Of profit to the stakeholder.
Meanwhile We may remark that II
takes time and money and brains to
open such deposits"

ably among the best ground in the

ROMANCE OF A NECKLACE.

The $4,000 pearl necklace be-
longing to Mrs. A.. A. Sprague, H.,
which disappeared mysteriously in a
Pullman "a between Boston and
Chicago last September, has been re-
stored to its owner.
After having abandoned all hope
OF ever recovering the necklace,
which was a gift to Mrs. Sprague
from Marshall Field, the owner came
into possession of it again in an ex-
traordinary manner. While the po-
lice of a dozen cities were searching
for the lost article, a f~ve-year-old
girl, daughter of a night Waterman,
was wearing the lost necklace. The
rope of pearls was given to the girl
by her father. who was unaware of
its great value.
One morning coming back from
work the man noticed the CLINT of
pearls In a pile of rubbish containing
the sweepings from the Pullman
cars. He picked it up thinking it
was a cast-off trinket of no particular
value and brought it home to his
little girl.
The child wore the necklace until
a jeweler saw it and her father learn
ed its value. Then he advertised IT
and it was restored to Mrs. Sprague.

SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS
WHITE SLAVE DECISION

On the theory that traffic in wo.
men in interstate commerce may be
regulated by legislation as well as the
traffic in drugs, food or cattle, the
supreme court of the United States
on Monday upheld the validity OF the
federal white slave traffic act OF
1910. 1t had been contended this
question of morality, was reserved
for action by the states. The su-
preme court had several cases before
II in which the eonstitutionality of
the act was attacked, but made its
decision on the case of Efiie Hoke of
Beaumont, Texas, and Basil Econo-
mides, a New Orleans saloon keeper,
sentenced TO six years each for ille-
gal transportation of women from
New Orleans to Beaumont. Their
conviction was confirmed, as were
a number of others which had been
awaiting action by the supreme
court. The case of Jack Johnson did
not figure in the decision, as il had
already been disposed of. Justice
McKenna delivered the courts opin-
ion as follows:
Our dual form of government has
its perplexities,' said he, states and
nation having different spheres of
Jurisdiction. but 1t must be kept in
mind that we are one people and the
powers reserved TO the states and
those conferred on the nation are ad-
dopted to be exercised, whether in
dependently or cencnrrently. to pro-
mote the general welfare. material
and moral. This is the effect of the
decisions and surely, If the facility Of
Interstate transportation can be TAX
en- away from the decentralization of
lotteries. the debasement of obscene
literature, the eontagion of diseased
cattle or persons. the %impurity of
food and drugs, the like facility can
be taken away from the systematic
debauehery of women and more in
| sistently. Of girls"
