Both erews soon settled down to steady work at the rate of 36 to the minute, and then the sweeping stroke of the “red” began to tell, and they gradually forged abead of their opponents, and con- | tinued to do so to the finish. The expected spurt of the Analostans was not forthcoming, and, in fact. they seemed to lag during the jast two miles. The Potomacs the line im 18 minutes and 33 seconds. Many comments were made during the race upon their bad steering, bnt a broken rudder satis- factorily accounted for that. The Analostans rowed the course in 19 minutes and 214 sec- | onds. It is reported now that their boat leaked badly, and on the whole It was not a very satisfactory race, but we look for a bet- ter exhibition next Thursday. In justice to Mr. Watson, of the Nassau Boat clab, who acted as umpire in the race yesterday afternoon, it is proper to state, that the agreement between the two clubs Was that the crews should he started by the word “go.” The usual warning “are you ready?” was omitted by agreement, and con- sequently the published strictures on the umpire for the omission do him injustice. ——_s—___ A YouNG MAN CHARGED WITH Discust- ING INSULTS To SCHOOT. GIRL: man named Charles T. K. Prentiss, man in the Treasury department, has got into trouble and made a name for himself. For some time past he has, it is charged, been hanging around the public schools and public squares, making indecent exposure of bis person to young girls. The Senne ig hod the Franklin school house, it is alleged, has been much frequented by this man. The iras- tees have been on the watch for him, but have never been able to catch him in the act, for the reason that he wears a loose overcoat, in which he wraps bimself suddenly when discovered in his prank: bout the first of the present month, it is alleged, he followed the daughter of a respectable gentleman one night to her father’s door, offering her re- ted insults In the manner describet. ast evening complaint was made at theéth preeinct by some young girlsthat they had Just been insulted on the improved rexerva- tion, near the site of the old Northern Liber- ty market house. Lientenant Eckloff and bis men ran out and soon caught him, and this morning he graced the Police Court with his presence. Superintendent J. O. Wilson and Trustee Hart were present. Mr. A. K. Browne appared for defendant. Several little school girls were present as wit- nesses, and the hearing was conducted op the part of the prosecution as de- cently as possible, but details of the testi- mony were two disgusting for publication. It was testified that the nee Was comm i- ted on the Ita and again on the 25th instant, at Franklin Square. Three school-girls gave testimony. and pointed out the man posi- Lively among others in the court. Counsel for defence set up the plea of mistaken iden- tity, and offered to prove an alibi. In order to establish their defence a continuation was asked for until temorrow. The bonds in each case was fixed at $200. Defendaat is prepossessing in looks, about 35 years of age, and it is said basa wife and three children in this eity. =e AN OLD CORPORATION ASB IN CourT— ion Suit to Prevent the Sale of Property Di ylie, Humphreys and MacArthur—the case of Wm.

L RoBBERY.—The “The late attempt to rob and murder Paymaster Fawcett and Superintendent Mulvany was invested with an additional interest by the arrest in this city on Saturday of McQuade, aman well known along the line of canal and long aresident of this city. The arrest was made by Mr. Mulvany in person, and the accused was at once taken before Justice Blocher, who committed him to jail to answer or un- til discharged by Lae pee of law. Mr. Mulvany was convin in his own mind at the time of the occurrence that MeQuade Was one of the masked parties, but prudently Kept his own counsel and quietly worked up other corroborating evidence, which, ‘it is med, will be produced at the proper time. ‘Warrants for the apprehension of James Reed, formerly of this city, and lately par- doned out of the penitentiary, ‘Lum’ Fear- name son and @ man of the of Bereh, of | Georgetown, D.

OPENING DAY AT THE NEW MILE TRACK. ‘To-day the new race course—the enterprise Major F. P. Hill—near Benning’s station, the Baltimore and Potomac railroad, {about five miles out,) is being inaagurated, ! avd there is @ large attendance. This rate + track is one of the finest in this country south of New York, and doubtless it will be. come one of the most popular. It is sur- rounded by a high tongue and board fence. Some idea of the extent of the enter- Ee be formed from the fact that ever 700,000 feet of lumber was required to fit up the course. Gre several roads teading to the course, the shortest one being ont H street to the old toll-gate, thevce river road to the track. The main 1 to the new course will be by rail, and the Baltimore and Potomac run exvarsion trains at the low rate of 25 cents the round tip. < iy ope to The — BEXNING's Station, B. & P.R R., Oct. 26.—The 11:55 train from Washington brought here avout 200 persons, and the 1 o'clock train fully as many more, while #3 the hour ap- proached for the racing large numbers ap- peared on the course, coming in vehicles and on ck. Immediately on the arrival of the first train, pool-selling took place at the grand stand, and Joe Cerns seemed to be the favorite, although Yellow Jacket had many friends, a3 did also Galway. ‘The first race was for a purse of $300, 14 mile dash, free for all ages; the w.nner of the first quarter $50, of the Tace $200, second horse $50.. The entries were as follows: Hart- land, 8. h., Jobn Fletcher, owner; Yellow Jacket. b.¢..J E. Mantz, White Stockings, b g., R. H. Rush; Crickett, br. g.,R. H. Rush; Wave. b.¢., J. E.

Ti was — two o'clock before all the horses Were out on tbe track, and they were, of course, the objects of interest. Messrs. Hosea Ball, of Kentucky, and C. M. Alexander and Arthor Shepherd ‘were the judges, and Mr. L. M. Frush, the timer. At 2:15 the word was given to start, but the start was a false one, and several mpts at starting followed, the horses getting well under way on the fourth cail. First chance and Galway took the lead, followel py Ja> | Cerns, and soon the others were strung out over a considerable distance. The little jockey on Galway pressed Chance closely, and on coming dewn the home stretch by @ spurt almost passe him, hut Chance came in about a neck ahead, win- ning the race in 2:18, There are four other contests to follow, all being running races, the last being over ‘ten hurdles, GFRMAN THEATER.—From the announce- ment in to-day’s STAR it will be seen that a responsible attempt will be mate to insti- tute a series of fine dramatic performances in the German language. The first perform- ance willbe given to-morrow (Wednesday) evening at Ford's Opera House, and one or two entertainments will be given each week roviding the attempt is sufficiently encour- The company appeared in this eity last season and gave two performances with decided success. They will also appear two or three nights each week in Baitimoreat the Concordia Opera House.
