TRAVEL TO EXPOSITIONS
Santa Fe Calls Attention to Rapid
 Development of Traffic

conservative estimate is that at least three quarters of a million per sons will visit California from the Rockies and east, during the entire exposition period. To transport that number requires 6000 trains of 125 persons each, or an average of about 2l trains a day. The various trans continental lines can handle that much business on schedule and comfort.
 The summer rush of See America first" travellers to the Panama eXpc- sition has begun. The Santa Fe, for example. found it necessary to put on a second solid California limited every day during April, May June and July, by way of Grand Canyon. A thir1 California limited has also been run on certain days, as needed besides the four other regular daily trains on this line to the coast. And they are all running full.
 The Santa Fe also reports large nulnber of special excursion trains, and special car parties during June, July and August.
 The tendency is to go west one way and come back another, so as to see as much of the far west possible.
 Just now the crowd mainly is com posed of school teachers, business men and their families. from cities anu towns The farming class mostly will wait until fall before starting.

Night Fly-Fishing for Trout

My rod was of split bamboo, nine feet long, with considerable backbone, and weighed just fraction under five ounces. I would not advocate lighter or more willowy rod for night fishing unless the wielder was absolutely fu- miliar with the stream to be fished even so one will be surprised to find low-hanging branches reaching out to intercept his rod or entangle his flies.
 Nothing need be said regarding line or reel. but when it comes to terminal tackle the night fisherman will choose with circumspection. The leader should not be over three feet in length; to use a longer one will multiply difficulties on the average stream, and the flies should be a fly. If possible, have three flies, an end f.y and two troopers; the smaller flies are more than amply at tractive on meadow brooks and small streams, often where the larger flies have proved utterly unavailing. After nightfall trout, even in much fished water, are not so suspicious and will strike at commotion on the surface. Use those flies in which white pre- dominates only when the fish are feed ing upon millers and like insects; but when the insects are of dark color select a dark-colored midget.
 Let the landing net be strong. solid and dependable, and do not use an overnight rod for night fishing.

NEGRO KILLED BY
 DEPUTY VANDIVER
Wanted on Charge of Murdering An other Negro in Tuscaloosa
 County Last February

Grover Caffey, negro wanted in Tus- caloosa on charge of murder, was shot to death by Deputy Sheriff A. s. Vandiver at Mineral Springs early yesterday morn ing The deputies had received informa- ton as to the whereabouts of the, negro and started to Mineral Springs to capture him. In the posse were Deputies Brent, Vandver, Cowley and Beveridge. Brent and Cowley went to the front door while Vandiver and Beveridge went to the rear. When the deputies in the front of the house demanded admission, Caffey ran out the back door armed with shotgun. Deputy Vandiver called to the negro to halt. As he did so the negro turned as if to fire Vandiver shot the negro and he fell mortally wounded.
 Only one shot was fired, the bullet talk ing effect in the abdomen. The negro was rushed to the Hillman hospital where he was operated upon. Despite the efforts of the doctors, the man died at S:30 o'clock yesterday morning.
 The negro was wanted for the murder of Pete Arnold, another negro, last Feb ruary in Tuscaloosa.

g. stroke with the Ellis showing open water to the Cambridge crew.
 At the two-mile mark Nickalls' men pushed the stroke up notch, while Har yard held to B. Here the Blue led by two and half lengths.
 In the third mile Yale held steadily to 90 strokes, while Coxswain Kreger called on Harvard for a spurt. Stroke Lund re- sponded with a S2. but Coxswain McLane in the Yale shell made no change
 Entering the final mile the Crimson eight, although rowing perfectly, appeared to have run down like an unwound clock. There was the rhythm in the stroke, but the shell seemed to crawl.
 But the strain was beginning to tell on even the victors and Wiman. at No [, was slowly losing his power. Still the Blue shell shot forward.
 Game to the last, Lund of Harvard lifted his stroke again, touching 36 at one point in the last half mile, yet the stern of the Yale craft slipped away until, when the finish flags had been passed, more than five lengths of open water separated victors and vanquished

Victory was exceedingly sweet to the Ellis, for the intervarsity regatta records have to be searched for many years to find a Yale triple victory. To add to the joy of the Blue the varsity eight established a new up- stream course record in winning the big race.
 Only one race, the junior varsity event, was started on time. The four mile varsity contest was delayed by rought water one and quarter hours, and the freshman race postponed from forenoon until after the feature event.
 Then a broken oar lock necessitated the first year crews rowing a race at one and a half miles in almost total darkness.
 One of the largest regatta crowds that has gathered a New London in decade followed the fortunes of the crews. The entire four-mile course was lined with craft until in places the racing crews were hidden from those on shore and train.
 It was a great day for Yale and great day for New London, for it was demon- strated that the inter- varsity boat races between Yale and Harvard are still one of America's S sport classics.

Mothers to Use Schools

From the Philadelphia Record.
 That public school buildings in coll gested districts will be thrown open as neighborhood and recreation centers during the summer vacation period is apparent from action taken recently by the board of education. A request from the Home and School league that the school buildings be given over to social service work was referred to the cont- mittee on elementary schools by Presi- dent Henry R. Edmunds Because sev- eral members of the committee on ele- mentary schools asked for power to act which was granted by unanimous vote and from favorable statements as to the plan by members of the committee it is virtually assured that the request of the Home and School league will be granted before the schools close for the summer vacation.
 The communication pointed out that modern school buildings made of terra cotta or concrete are from 10 to 12 de- grees cooler than the average city resi- dence and that they will serve as a safe and comfortable retreat for mothers of the congested districts during the sum mer months.

INTEREST CENTERS
 ON YALE'S PROSPECTS

Chief interest centered in the outcome of the varsity races when the Yale oars men demonstrated that the eight-inch vic tory of last years English coached crew was not fluke by winning today's con test by almost six lengths. Harvard took defeat philosophically but Yale adherents made no attempt to hide their joy nor did the townfolk, with whom the Ell victory was exceedingly popular
 That the Blue had a crew of particular power and finish is shown in the figures of the four-mie race, where the Yale oarsmen set their own pace and in so doing established a new upstream record of 20 minutes, 52 seconds, beating the time made by the Yale eight of 1907 by IS seconds. The time of both crews in to- days race by miles follows:
 One mile: Yale 440; Harvard. 4:45.
 Two miles: Yale 10:05; Harvard. 15:99.
 Three. miles: Yale. 15:27; Harvard, 15:S9.
 Four miles: Yale, 20:52; Harvard, 2l:131a.
 The freshman race over a mile and a half course was won by the Yale first year crew by approximately one length, the times being: Yale, minutes, sec onds; Harvard, minutes, 10 seconds.
 A southwest wind and choppy water delayed the start of the varsity race more than one hour and the lower half of the course was still choppy when the shells left the railroad bridge. The tide was running upstream and the sky was overcast. With the possible exception of the first half mile. Harvard never ap- peared to have chance.
 The Yale shell travelled at high speed throughout the entire four miles. Every stroke appeared identical with it's fellows, regardless of whether the beat was at 30 or 40
 Minor faults were apparent in one or two spots in the Crimson craft, but taken as a whole the crew was credit to Coach Wray. The reason for defeat ap- peared to lay in the concerted lack of power rather than in any individual fault or rowing omissions Every oarsman rowed his stroke through in finished style but it lacked the final snappy drive.
 Both eights fought gamely throughout the long four-mile race, without a sign of a faltering break. Once over the finish line there came the temporary reaction and exhaustion common to college crew races. yet it was only momentarily and soon the carsmen were heading back for their quarters.
 When the Yale shell shot across the finish line Coxswain McLane was stand ing LID cheering on his rowers like a Roman chariot driver. His words of praise fell on deaf ears in several cases for Captain Sturteyant had to grasp the gun vale to keep from falling backward. Other members of the crew splashed them with water and soon they joined in cheer ing the Crimson eight, floating close by.

HARyARD'S STROKE
 SLOWER AND SLOWER

Harvard was slower to recover. Stroke Lund victorious pacemaker in nine races for Harvard, collapsed as his car trailed past the finish posts. At his back. Cabot. No. :, followed suit, and in the waist of the shell. Harwood, No. 1. slumped down.
 It was 5:44 D. m. when the starting pistol sent the two crews away. The Yale oars men buried their sweeps with the flashes and fairly lifted ther long craft out of the river. The shelf appeaissi to leap from wave to wave during this minute or so when the blue-tipped oars were beating A to the minute.
 Harvard with better form opened at q. but the Crimson boat ran slowly between strokes and Yale gained half a length lead in the first quarter mile.
 The race soon resolved itself into A pro- oession in which Yale gained length and fraction in every mile. Passing the mile lags both shells were being driven by a.
