The con- tests on the Georgetown College campus yesterday afternoon were all bitterly dis- puted between the representatives, and when the final score was announced Cen- tral had away the best of the figures. The contests, through the courtesy of the Georgetown College officials, took place on the campus, and the college athletes helped the school boys materially in making the j event a success. Not only this, the college grounds were thrown open to the boys for training, and Trainer Foley rounded the boys in shape. That they showed the re- sults of his honest work is demonstrated by the records. Several of them give great promise of becoming cracks, and Instruc- tor John Crossley, who has consented to take charge of the athletes of the Colum- bia Athletic Club, remarked that he would like to have an opportunity to develop some of the talent. There were eleven events on the program. ‘The feature of the day was the exccllent work of the track officials, who kept the program going. There were no unneces- sary waits, and everything was over at 5 o'clock. This was due largely to the man- agement of Mr. Bernard J. Wefers, the champion sprinter. The officials appointed for the meet, and most of whom were present, were: Referee, Robert Dick Douglass; clerk of the course, Louis S. Wells; timekeepers, R. Lee, W. B. Hibbs and Elmer Speare; announcer, J. K. Jones; scorers, Messrs, Relchelderfer and track judges, Bernard J. Wefers, James A. Hendley and Mr. Clai- borne; starter, George T. Cox; measurers, Messrs. English and Wilson; field judges, J. Earl Ambrose and Messrs. Fox and Mc- Cormick. Appended is the summary: One hundred yards—Jolly, Central, won. Time, 11 1-5 seconds. Tindal, Central, sec- ond; Coffin, Central, third, and Taussig, Western, fourth. Putting 12-pound shot—Dumars, Central, won. Distance, 34 feet 8 inches.

Time, 24 4-5 s Berry, Western, second, and Coffi tral, third. Pole vault—Curtiss, Central, and Maran, Central, tied at 8 feet 7 inches; Maupin, third. The pole vault is yet to be decided be- tween Curtiss and Maresy of the Central, so that each of them is: é of at least two points for second plgze,. Three points more and a first place pUsiiin instead of the second place position Jg. §@ be added to the credit of the winner, ;80;that if Cur- tiss, who is considered ‘to be the better man, wins, his record wyll three first places and one second, a fotdl of seventeen points for him and sixty-¢ight for the school. 5 a Two-mile bicycle racet+WBpon, Central, won.

Wilson, who attended the Central up to a couple of months ago, won the bicycle race, but as he will probably be sucess- fully protested, Weaver of the Hastern will be credited with that event, with Wil- liams, from the same school, finishing sec- ond and Darby, from the Western, third.

The sprinters from the other schools were too tired to form a ‘team to com- pete agains: the Central school, so that the Central ran Albert, Young, Tindall and Ruff in one team and Browning, Stuart, Jolly and Coffin om the other. The first team looked like a sure winner, as it held the lead for three laps; but on the last lap Coffin made a fige spurt and won cut for the second team. Previous Records Broken, The meet yesterday was thoroughly suc- cessful, and will long be remembered as the one where all of the previous records established in the athletic meets of No- vember 7, 1890, on the ‘Central school grounds, and November 7, 1891, on Analos- tan Island, were af broken, except one, which was equaled, and some new ones established that promise to stand for some time to come Ip the hundred yards dash Jolly equaled the best time yet made, 11 1-5 seconds, by G. . Davis in 1891. Both Curtiss and Ma- rean, who are tied for first place in the pole vault, and will decide who is entitled to first place later on, broke the record by almost_a foot, the best previous height being 7 feet 8 inches, made by Rose in 1890. The height they reached yesterday was 8 feet 7 inches. The time for the two hundred and twenty yards dash was beaten by just one-fifth of a second, as G. BE. Davis made it in 25 sec- onds, while Ruff finished in 24 4-5 seconds yesterday. The record of G. E. Davis in the broad jump, 17 feet 10 inches, was also beaten by Hyder Farrow, who jumped almost a foot further, making 18 feet 9 inches. The mile run was beaten by almost a half minute, Stuart winning in 5 minutes 19 seconds, against 5 minutes 46 seconds, by F. A. Nicholson on Analostan Island. Yesterday Underwood put the shot 25 feet in one of the trtals, but Dumars beat him out in the finals by throwing it 34 feet 8 inches, against his 33 feet 11 Inches. The nearest to this was 34 feet 5 inches, made by Johnson in 1800, Ruff beat the record of 61 seconds, made by F. A. Nicholson in 191, In the four hundred and forty yards run yesterday in 53 2-5 seconds. The running high jump of 4 feet 9 inches by G. Davis on Analostan Island was beaten by both Curtiss and Farrow, who reached 5 feet. After the finance cominittee reports all necessary medals and other prizes will be purchased for all those who are entitled to them. Gold medals will then be rresent- ed to all of those who took first place, sil- ver medals to all se place men and ath- letic articles to the hoys who finished third. Some of the merchants of the city have helped the management out by the follow- irg donations: Saks & Company, J. Karr’s Sons, Mr. Hansen, successor to’ Schmedtie Lros., and J. Desio, gol medals; S. Desio, a silver medal, and articles from’ the stock of Messrs. M. A. Tappan, E. P. Mertz and M. G. Copeland The Evening Star champtonship trophy is on exhibition at the jewelry store of R.

PERSONNEL OF THE PARTY NEW HAVEN, June 4.—When the pres- ent year began Yale’s prospect for a suc- cessful boating season looked dark. The unpleasant break with Harvard, arising out of the foot ball game of 'H, deprived Yale of her old-time contest upon the wa- ter. There were several directions in which the management would turn for a race. Many wanted to challenge Cornell, but the majority of the graduates were opposed to this. Then the question of whether or no application should be made to enter the great four-cornered race with Pennsylvania-Harvard-Columbia and Cor- nell was agitated. This proposition was met with approval by the university as a whole, and by the crew men also, but the policy of the ntvy was ecpposed to this and this plan was finally dropped. Meanwhile Robert J. Cook and several of the prominent graduat:s were making pri- vate inquiries as to Yal nces of ge! ting a match with the winner of the Ox- ford-Cambridge race. This has been the goal of every Yale oarsman’s ambition for years—to test over a four-mile course the stroke, which has won so many victories on American waters, with that of the En- glish style, from which Mr. Cook has evolved that stroke with which his name is linked. Advances were made officially to Oxford and Cambridge, but the difference in the Seasons created difficulties that were un- surmountabl». Yale could not get in con- dition as early as March, nor could the Englishmen keep in training two weeks af- ter the Henley regatta, in which the mem- bers of both cr2ws will be contestants, so the hope of a four-mile race had to be abandoned. Every outside force was brevght to bear to have Yale then enter the lg-four race and a race with Columbia was even talked of, when to the surprise of every one, even to those closely connected with boating at Yale, the management announced that there was a good possibility of entering the Royal Henley regatta. This announce- ment was made before there were any defi- nite arrangements, because the work of the crew candidates had become somewhat indifferent with no definite object of their labors in view. Bob Cook, who is at the head of Yales rowing interests, and who directs every- thing in this branch of the athletics, took entire charge of the Henley matter. Ani as soon as there appeared to be a strong Possibility of Yale's ertering the regatta, Mr. Cook assumed entire charge of the men. No Yale crew has ever had such an amount of skilled coaching spent upon them in this length of time. Such men as John Rogers, Sherwood B. Ives, Dr. Percy Bolton, Fred. A. Johnson, George A. Adee, Al. Cowles, Richard Armstrong and many lesser lights have assisted Captain Tread- way once or twice a k throughout the entire season. In addition, Mr. Cook him- self has been with the men once a week, and sometimes twice, and should the cre fail, there will be no excuse on account of lack of coaching or insufficient train- Ing. Selecting the Crew. There were four vacancies in the boat left by the loss of Capt. Armstrong, Hol- comb, Dater and Cross. Cross is in col- jege, but he didn’t car2 to undertake the strain of his fourth crew season on top of the foot ball season, It was fortunate for Capt. Treadway that in the stern three were old men—in fact, the stern four could be classed as veterans, for Bailey, who is rowing No. 5, has been training for two seasons. Lang- ford was the “find” of last season who stroked the crew so well to victory. Cap Treadway has rowed three seasons at No. 7. Longacre, at No. 6, has rowed a like number of years. Thus, with four six-foot veterans in the stern positions, the stroke was bound to be regular and long. It was the selection of the bow four that both- ered the coachers. After some time Rodg- ers, ta-kl- on the foot ball team, was se- lected to fill No. 4. For nearly three months ha has rowed continuously here. Beard, at No. 3, has filled the place for two seasons, but the selection of the two bow men was not finally settled until a month ago, when Brown and Simpson were the fortunate candidates chosen. Ther? has been some surmise as to how high a stroke the crew will row in the race. From thelr regular work it can be seen that they will begin as high as 39 or 40, and not lower tt below 37 during the race. The Yale Party. The party that sails Saturday on the City of Berlin will be composed of Robert J. Cook, as coacher; Manager H. G. de Sibour, Captain Treadway, George Langford, J. M. Longacre, P. R. Balley, J. O. Rodgers, W. M. Beard, A. Brown, J. H. Simpson; substi- tutes, P. D. Mills, Payne Whitaey, C. F. Marsh and J. S. Wheelwright, who will go as substitute and assistant manager. The Brooklyn Handteap. This afternoon will occur the tenth run- ning of the Brooklyn handicap at a mile and a quarter over the Gravesend track. Nine horses are entered. The probable starters, weights and jockeys are as ful- lows: Clifford A. Clayton Keenan . . Griffin Counter Tenor. Hamilton Sir Walter Taral Nanki Pooh. Hornpipe St Lake Shore. Paladin . - O'Leary The list is smaller than had been expe ed, as several lack condition, including Henry of Navarre. This leaves Clifford as the favorite, with St. Maxim next and Sir Walter next. - Doggett : Lamle Sims T. Sloane Schade’s Good Work. Fred Schade, representing Columbian University of this city, won the two-mile handicap of the Harvard University Cy- cling Association at Cambridge, Mass., yes- terday afternoon, having 5) yards’ handi- cap, in 4364-5. He was third in the two- mile open and second in the one-mile open. He scored 6 points for Columbian, Harvard winning 4 and Columbia of New York 18. Reducing the Race Dintance. At a meeting of the joint committee on Potomac river regatta at the Analostan boat house last night it was decided to make the eight-oared shell races one mile straight away instead of a mile and a half. The committee decided to invite Gordon S. Carrigan, commodore of the Schuylki navy, to officiate as referee on regatta day. Tickets for the excursion to Marshall Hall July 20, for the regatta fund, will be dis- tributed at once among the clubs. ——. THE LEXINGTON CONVENTION, Silver M Largely in the Ma- jority. There was continuous applause in the Kentucky democratic convention yesterday afternoon, at Lexington, when John R. Rhea, the champion of free silver, pre- sented the name of Senator Charles J. Bronston of Lexington for temporary chair- man, and absolute silence prevailed when Bennett Young presented Judge Alexander Humphreys of Loulsville, on the part of the gold standard men, for temporary chairman. Rhea made a short, brilliant presentation of Bronston’s name, while Young made an | exceptionally strong and lengthy speech in| presenting Humphreys’ name. | He commanded attention till he referred | to Judge Humphreys as ably representing | the views of those great statesmen, Cleve- land and Carlisle, and then he could not be heard on account of hissing and yelling. Young had the floor, attempting time after time to proceed. Ollie James, a free silver leader, mounted That Use Peddlers and some unscrupulous grocers will “this is as good as” or “the same as Pearline.” IT'S FALSE—Pearline is never peddled, and if your grocer be honest—send it Back, 510 Send sends you something in This is the way women who do their washing in the old-fashioned way. dread it—and no wonder. because they won't use Pearline. tell you it Back place of Pearline, terrible wash-tub! it looks to the They All Pearline—use it just as directed—soak,sboil and rinse the clothes—and the wash-tub won't be (a. bugbear. over it enough for that. $/ work—no inhaling of fetid steam— no wearing rubbing—no torn clothes —nothing but economy. You won't have to be No hard a chair and begged his fellow delegates to let Young proceed, when the latter was able to conclude. Numerous seconding | nominations were made amid confusion. Chairman Long made a most caustic Speech in appealing for order, and insisted that there would be no call of the counties until order was restored, and announced that no one would be recognized pending the call for appeals or anything else. The call of the 119 counties was inter- rupted by several contested announcements, but was finally announced as follows, Bronston representing silver and Hum- phreys gold: Bronston, 691. Humphreys, 206. No changing of vote was allowed. The thirty votes of Kenton county, the home Carlisle, were cast for Bronston; the s vote of the fifth district, which includes | Louisville, and a good part of the vote of) the mountainous country in the tenth and eleventh districts, were cast for Hum- phreys, the gold candidate. He got some | other scattering votes from silver dele- | gates. | The silver men ciaim their delegates knew Bronston did not need any help, and conciliatory, as well as complimentary, votes are said by them to have been cast. Motion was made and numerously sec- onded to make Bronston's election unani- mous. There were many objections from the Loutsville delegates, whereupon Chair- man Long announced that he would not put the motion. He introduced Senator Bronston as the chairman. Bronston made an eloquent free silver speech, congratu- lating the democracy of K entucky upon be- ing no longer tempted by the lure of gold, and at last securing such standing as to represent the rank and file of the democ- racy of the commonwealth. After Senator Bronston’s remarkably vig- orous and lengthy speech there were re- peated calls for John 8. Rhea, who ad- dressed the convention on the coinage question. Like Bronston, he was greeted with repeated and continuous rounds of applause. Yilliam Cromwell, G. E. Carseday and W. J. Mocquote were made s. cretarics of the convention. When the districts were called for announcement of members of the committees, and the fifth district was reached, a motion was made to pass it, on account of the Louisville contests, until after the report of the committee on cre- dentials was adopted. Atter defeating various motions and over- ruling points of order the contestants with- drew their objections, and the gold stand- ard delegation from the fifth district made iw report, the convention reserving furiher action th ron, under its permanent organi- zauion. While the convention has an ove Whelming silver majority, and no more votes were needed in the convention, yet the fifth district nad sclected two gold standard m as deiexates to Chicago, and the long fight on calling this district was vue to the decree of the silver majority to get those two national d have a solid silyer delegation from Ken- tucky to Chicago. Senator Blackburn ri and continuous calls, ponded to repeated and acdressod manner on the lesson of the great silver victory in Kentucky last Saturday and the duty of the representatives of the people in this convention. : On reassemblin was addressed by Evan E. James, W. P. Thorne, Jam others on free coinage. ing from the Kansas democratic conven- tion was read and loudly appiauded. At this juncture, Gen. P. Wat Hardin, the democraiic candidate for governor Jast | year, entered the hall on Senator Black- | burn’s arm. The most enthusiastic recep- | tion was given him. He was almost cas ried upon the platform. Chairman Bron- ston had Senator Blackburn introduce him. Gen.
