Middies Away First.

Not much delay was occasioned in get
ting the varsity crews off. In this event
the Middies also got away to a better
start. In fact the race was in contrast
to the preceding brush, except that the
crews were not separated by more than a
length over the whole course. The Mid
dies started off with a stroke of AZ
against 40 by the Vardmen. The local
crew had half-length lead in the first
300 yards and they kept to the fore all
the time At the three-quarter- mile
mark the Middies had stretched their ad-
vantage to a full length Spurts by the
Crimson over the remainder of the course
cut this down foot by foot. but the Mid
dies apparently We're determined not to be
headed and met every challenge. Here it
might be mentioned that the Harvard

due more to good fortune than anything
else 1t so happened that the prov of

May Feel Proud.

And the Middies may well feel proud
of today's victory through the fact that
the Crimson varsity rowed splendid
race, displaying excellent form all the
way, but the sailor lads proved them
selves equal to the occasion at all times
and showed great endurance.
Singular though it might seem, both
of the winning crews covered the course
Of mile and fve-sixteenths in precise
ly the same tines minutes and AZ sec
onds. The Harvard varsity finished two
seconds behind the Navy first crew. while
the Navy second crew was ten and two
fifths seconds behind the Harvard second
crew. The fact that the crews had both
the wind and tide In their favor was re-
sponsible for the fast time made.
The conditions of weather were favor
able in one way and detrimental in an
other for the oarsmen. A chilly rain feii
throughout the afternoon and a light
wind from the south kicked up d slightly
choppy sea as the rival crews padded up
the river for the starting point. and be-
sides there were several delays in getting
the crews at the stakeboats. one of the
setbacks coming from the torpedo boat
Manley which bore the officials. news
paper men and others, fouling the anchor
line of one of the stakeboats.
The race between the Junior crews was
pulled off first The Crimsons selected
the north side of the river, while the
Middies took the south. The sailor lads
got the jump on their opponents. and,

ing at forty-two clip. soon covered up
the gap. and. once ahead. they main
tained the lead all the way. 1t was early
apparent that this race would mean a
Harvard victory. The visiting oarsmen
rowed in fine form. while the work OF
the Niddies was somewhat ragged. At
the half-mile point the Harvard boat
was leading BY a good length. and the
visitors slowly but steadily increased the
distance, in spite of the efforts of the
Middies to cut down the lead.

the MILDLY seniors covered themselves
with glory this afternoon by winning
from the strong Harvard varsity crew by
half length in one Of the prettiest races
ever rowed on Severn river. The second
Navy crew could not repeat the dose,
losing to the Harvard seconds by three
lengths
But the varsity race was the principal
attraction and the strategy used by the
Middies reflected much credit on Richard
Glendon of the Boston Athletic Associa-
ton. who has coached the Naval Acad-
emy crews with much success for the last
several seasons. The form displayed by
the sailor lads plainly showed that they
were not in the proper condition when
they went up against the Quakers last
Saturday. They started at a lively stroke
today and maintained 1t all the way. and
in spite of the heroic efforts of the Grim
son oarsmen, they could not overcome
the lead which the Middies gained over
the early stages of the course. The race
against the Pennsylvanians last Satur-
day, when the Midshipmen rowed a rath-

To Catch a Husband
Run Away From Him
by IRENE WESTON.

When man or a woman adores one
OF the other sex with all their heart and
soul. does 1t, or does 1t not, arouse a
similar passion in the heart of the
object of their intense alteration? 1t
10 niooted point. Some say, "Yes"
anu others say most decidedly. No"
You Will generally find that 1t Is the
woman who enthusiastically say. YES"
the man who as decidedly say, "No."
Now, the explanation Is obvious. Men
and women are SO differently consti.
tuted. If n man adores a woman with
all his heart and soul, the chances are
very much In favor of her taking a
sentimental interest In him-if she has
not already bestowed her heart else
where; that is the great stumbling
block in the path of her ardent wooer
The sentimental interest gradually
widens and expands. If she Is not
genuinely in love with the man, she
gradually falls under. the sway Of his
love and; falls, in love with love- Then
his path Is easy; he has only to wed
her and transfer her affection from his
love to himself.
There Is even a small chance for her
wooer even IL her heart is bestowed
suppose the man she loves does not
return her ardent affection, and is
merely bored by it. if she makes it too
iapparent-or even rude-then comes the
lovers chance.
Unconsciously she compares the object
of her dreams unfavorably with her
constant lover. "Ah! she sighs IF
only he were like THAR!
The strong mans love fascinates and
soothes her unconsciously, even to her.
self; she seeks out his society, and is
comforted. and gradually her interest in
the former loved one sinks, ,fiickers and
dies. A woman's love for the one man
can undoubtedly be cured in time by
