Professor Abbott Says Crew Will Not
 Race at Annapolis Regatta.

New Haven, March 21.-The Yale university crew will not take part in the recently suggested intercollegiate regatta at Annapolis, Prof. M. A. Alb bolt, coach of the crew, said last night. It has been suggested that Harvard, Yale, Pennsylvania, Prince ton and Syracuse crews meet there.
 ''Yalo was not entering intercollegi- ate sports,' Prof. Abbott said, ito de- feat rivals, but to turn out mon phy- scally fit to endure the strain of mod crn warfare As everyone must have some objective, however, he added Vale Harvard and Princeton crews would race each other, but would not take part in any large regattas, which are not regarded as in keeping with the times.
 Referring to the report that Yale and Columbia may meet on the water, Prof. Abbott said that so far no re- quest for such a meeting had come i from Columbia. He added that the captains of nearly all of the rowing universities would meet in New York next Saturday night to consider how they may with the least expense and notoriety row each other in triangular or dual races"

 Another great feature at the club was held on Washington's Birthday, when a Parents Night was held. The headliner of the evening was a very interesting talk by Past Commander Frederick V. Streeter
 "On March the Y. M. c. A p0ol team went down to a bitter defeat be- fore the Boys club team.
 The industrial work at the club has DcCIl ct IIlOSI important IedCuFe, as can be seen from the fine specimens ob- talned from the different classes.
 ''The Carpenter class, under James Ptolonly, foreman for B. Fl. Hubbard Co.,, deserves much credit. Tables. picture frames, garden signs and other household articles were ably constructed in this class.
 The Clay Modelling class, under the direction of MT. Cullen, developed many fine models, the work of John Gussman deserving special mention
 Tn the Cobbling class, the boys mended their own shoes as we'll as those of their brothers and sisters.
 Scout Troop No. II has progressed rapidly under the able direction of Sc ut Commissioner William Hickey. This troop is a member of the Nation al Association of America.
 "One of the most entertaining feat ures at the club is the Boys Club band led by Thomas Toscano. The boys have played out on several occasions, receiving much praise wherever they appeared. At the G. A. R. hall and Scenic theater they did excellent work
 "One new feature at the club has been the barbershop, where the boys were able to receive a free hair cut once a week John B. White looked after the boys in this department"

Hot Springs, Ark, March 21.--The time-worn trick of inserting a sponge in horses nose to prevent his breath ing through his nostrils and thereby causing him to quit in a race, was re- sorted to here yesterday.
 Opportunity, w. Woodward's good handicap horse. was the victim. He was down to start in the feature race, but his owner discovered the sponge when he went to the stable to get him ready for the post.
 There was nothing on it to injure the horse but it was so placed as to make breathing difficult.
 Immediately after finding the sponge the horse was withdrawn and both Woodward and Jefferson Living ston, of New York, each offered a re- ward of $250 for information leading to the identity of the culpr!t
