The asagao was brought to Japan with the Buddhist religion, that particular cult of early rising. Scholars and priests who went over to study the new religion brought back the seeds of many Chinese plants. The tea plant came then, and Eisai brought the seeds of the sacred bo tree; and Tai Kwan, the Chinese priest at the Obaku Temple in Uji, who may have introduced the flower to Japan. was one of the first to sing of the asagao in graceful outas, classic poems which scholarly brushes re- peat today. quick); glory, “Asagaos bloom and fade so only to prepare for the morrow’s is Tai Kwan's best known verse. ——+e+____ Burglarn Cook Over a Hymn Book Fire.

CURRENT SPORTING NOTES ——— The bewling team of Carroll Institute went to South Washington last night and Played a set of three games on the alleys of the Washington Athletic Club. By win- ning two of the three, the Carrolls moved into second place in-the bowling league race, the Washingtons dropping to third. The first two contests were uninteresting, Carrolls leading from start to finish and winning as they pleased. In the last game the W. A. C. braced up sufficiently to make the contest interesting, winning out by a small margin. Martin and Dietz of the Washingtons both had off nights, leaving the bulk of the work to the three other members of the team. Armstrong of C. 1 was high man for single score, making 130 in the second game, while McCaully of 243 fame led his side with The only good team score for the evening was made by Carroll Institute in the opening game, when they bowled down 809 pins. The attendance of Spectators was the smallest noied at any of the league games, the comparative in- accessibility of the alleys no doubt being responsible. The Carrolls led all the way through t first event, all of the men bowling steadily together, the side finishing winners with 114 pins to spare. ‘The score follows CARROLL INST! W.

The two trial eights at-Harvard Univer- sity which will race. Saturday, December 4, have been selected by Mr. Lehmann, the English oarsrem, and are now receiving their final touches preparatory to the race. The two crews are very evenly matched, there being but five seconds difference be- tween them for two miles. The form the men are rowing in 1s a sharp contrast to that the trial eights dis- played last fall. The work. new consists in rowing in the tubs under the direction of Mr. Lehmann and Mr. Willis, the scuiler of the Leander club, and long stretches in the shells. “After the race some of the men will do a-lttle rowing in the tubs, but the season will practically end with Saturday's race. ‘ Mr. Lehmann will spend Christmas in pects to have Mr. Willis accompany him. Mr. Lehmann has recognized that he made grave mistakes in the coaching of last year’s crew, and with characteristic English pluck has gone to work to remedy the One great difficulty that has to be overcome is the lack of boating experience that the average American boy who enters a college has in comparison with his Eng- lish cousin. The American boy, in most cases, sees a racing boat for the first time when he tries for his freshman crew. The English boy, on the other hand, has rowed in his fitting school. and if he happens to come from Eten, Harrow or any of the great schools where rowing is in vogue, has had some racing experience and has had the essentials of rowing thoroughiy ground into him. Thus it can be easily seen that coaching an English crew is a very simple thing. Since the men all row in the same Style, it is simply a question of getting them to- gether. It is with these facts all in mind that the famous English coach has goné to work to retr:eve last year’s mistakes. He will make no change in the stroke or rig- ging of the boats, ard the crew will’ be trained on the same lines exactly as last year. The training season, however, will not be so long or the work- so severe as the '97 crew underwent. There will be no rowing in the tank nor any long runs. Ali the men in college will be called out for the class crews in the spring, and from the men who do best in the class races the "varsity crew will be selected. The ‘varsity crew will row together for about seven weeks in all before the big intercollegiate races. EASTERN GUE IN SESSION. Syracuse Awarded the Championship * in ite of Protests. At yesterday's zaeeting of the Eastern League at New York the following dele- gates responded to roll call: Toronto, A. A. Irwin; Buffalo, James Franklin; Mon- treal, George W. Cameron, J.

President Powers presented a staternent of the club standing, and also a number of protests as to games, Mr. Powers’ ruling being sustained by the board. ‘The standing of the clubs was not affected. Syracuse first, Toronto sec- ond, buffalo third, Springfield fourth, Prov- idence fifth, Scranton sixth, Montreal sev- enth, Wilkesbarre eighth. There were protests against the Toronto club regarding the farming of playe Manager Irwin will be given a_hea: explain his relations with the Wa club owners. A reccmmendation was made by the board that the visiting team receive $i for every game scheduled. This grew out of a protest by Scranton against Wilkes- barre for failure to pay $100 guarantee for a game. Wilkesbarre claimed the ground was too wet, but Scranton disputed that emeat. It is a question whether Scran- emains in the league. Applications s were received from Worces- ter, Rochester and New Haven. ‘Tam Burns of Springtield, formerly third baseman of the Chicagos, simply smiled when asked if he would manage the Chi- cagos next season. He said he knew noth- ing about it. There is a strong suspicion that he will succeed Anson. ANOTHER KIND OF WHEEL. ton for franchis: The Driving Sprockets Revolve Fast- er Than the Pedals. ‘Teddy Hale will ride a novel kind of wheel in his race in New York next week. The machine is equipped with what the in- ventor calls a multiplex gear, and there are but two of them in the world. The driving sprockets revolve faster than the pedals, making one and a half revolutions to one of the pedals. To the axle is attached a small sprocket, which engages four other sprockets revolving in the opposite direc- tion. These engage the outer rim, which has teeth that engage the driving chain. At first sight it would seem that this me- chanism is complicated and the friction great. But the cogs are adjusted to an in- finite nicety and are inclosed so that nota- ing is exposed but the outer teeth engaging the chain. In riding it the pedals do not revolve faster than a wheel geared to , but ac the same time the 106 gear is in effect. Arthur Chase, the English champion, used one when he recently defeated Linto who at that time was riding an ordinary wheel. He defeated Linton’ easily then returned the wheel to the factory. When Chase rode his wheel was bat the pedals revolved at an The wheel that Linton is now red to 112 and has an 9s. ‘The wheels are equipped with There will be nearly as much rid- interest in Hale’s new bicycle next we as there will be in the performances of the Experts desire to see the wheel work- men. geared and chain wheels that will be used. YALE AND CORNELL TO CONFER. It ix Believed That a Race Can Be Arranged. NEW HAV Conn., December 2.—All the facts to the negotiations for a race be- iween Yale and Cornell University crews naye been made public. The challenge, which was from Yale, was forwarded to Ithaca last Saturday, and suggested a race at New London next spring, a week or ten days after the Yale-Harvard race at the same place, an alternative proposition being that Cornell join with the other two universities and make a triangular contest, it being understood, however, that Har- vard’s consent to this latter plan is yet to be obtained. Cornell's reply, received yes- terday, was not conclusive, but intimated a desire for a conference. This, it is un- derstood, Yale is ready to concede. Yale's first obligation called for the.com- pletion of negotiations with Harvard, with wnom, by virtue of a five years’ agree- ment, she was bound to race. For the Yale-Harvard race the New London course Was unhesitatingly named, and imme- diately after this point had been settled Yale prepared her challenge to Cornell, nat- urally naming the Thames as the course. Yale will go to the proposed conference pri pared tu extend to Cornell the most sports- manlike courtesies, and believing that the Cornellians will meet them in a similar spirit. Yale desires a race with Cornell, and such a contest is so far assured as to ve lacking only in details, which, it is hoped, will be satisfactorily agreed upon. The main detail is, of course, the course. If three crews can row abreast over the New London course, Cornell could race Yale and Harvard there, and later row Co- lumbia and Pennsylvania. If the course is not wide enough, Cornell would probably insist on the Hudson river course at Pougn- keepsie. INSTITUTES DEFEATED. Basket Ball Match Won by the Cor- coran Cadets. ‘The strong Carroll Institute team of the National Basket Ball League was defeated by the Corcoran Cadets team last night at the Globe building by a score of 15 to 11. The game was a brilliant exhibition and both teams played up to the top notch of perfection. Dodge and Waters, for the Cor- coran Cadets, and McAfee and Daley, for the C. I. team, did the star work. Adam Johnson umpired the game and got a black eye for his trouble as the result of an acci- dental mix-up at close quarters with some of the more ambitious athletes. The line- up: ‘Corcoran Cadets—Justen, left back; Zell, right back; Clarke, center; Dodge, right forward; Waters, left forward. Carroll Institute—Murphy and Alexander, left back; Hughes, right back; Berberick, center; Daley, right forward; McAfee, left forward. ‘.
