’ ’ ¢ t 4 STEWART'S WILL. ——-+ The Turneys’ Relationship Denied by Judge Hilton, PROBATE LAW DEFINED. Why Surrogate Calvin Did Not Issue Citations Before Probate. Now that the Turneys have made public their re Sons for contesting the will of the late Mr. A. T. Stew. art the people ure exccedingly anxious to learn how the document which was filed on Wednesday is re- garded by those who are at present enjoying the man- agement of the estate. With the object of ascertain. ing this a Hegaco reporter calicd upon Judge Hilton yesterday, but was tpformed by that gonticman that be had nothing whatever to say. From his manuer of speaking it is probable that the Judge's policy in fu- ture wil! be silence. He did not wish to say anything, ‘decause he has aiready, in more instances than one, given expression to hisopiion of tho coming suit ex- clusively and elaborately in these columns He has fenieditne relationship which the Turneys claim, avd bas frequently statea that there was no ground what- ever for legal procedure against Uke will, He bas aiso shown how even the fact of relationship was insutfl- tient, and has most emphatically asserted that no un- due influence was exerted over the deceased. ALGERNON SULLIVAN ON PROBATE LAW. With a view to ascertaining tho law as regards the petition which the Bailey and Turney families make to tet aside Mr. Stewart's will a Henatp reporier yester- day called upon the Hon, Algernon S. Sullivan, at bis office in the Drexel Building, and asked him in case a will was admitted to probate witout citations having been issued to all heirs or next of kin to the Jeceased | would a subsequent sale of the property of the estate by the legatee be legal? Mr. SULLAvAN—Y our question involves two subjects :— 1. Should the pews and next of kin of the alleged tator be cited to attend the proceedings on probate ¥ 2 Whatellect would the fuilure to tssue proper cita- tions huve upon the ttle of a purchaser supposed to act ip good vith and tor value, after a formal decree admitting a will to probate? ‘The Statutes, to which I turn, sous to answer you literally, provide as fol- lows The executor, devises or logateo named in any last will, | orany person interested in an estate may have such will proved etore the proper Surrogate. On app.iention to the Rarrgate he shall vidence the ascertain oY, satisinet following facts:—1, Ifthe wilt e, the names und piuces of res diligent inquiry the same ean 0 wili relate exclusively to personal laces of residence of the widow and or, oF that upon diligent inquiry the 3. If the will relate to both o Dames and places of residence ofthe heirs, the widow and next of kin of the testator, or that ‘upon diligent inquiry the seme. cannot de ascertained. ‘The — Surro; shali thereupon issue a citatic er persons at such tine joned to appear and at- 1. ‘The citation shall stave who the will. and, whether it rela es D rsonal estate, or to both; it shall be directed to the proper persons by name, stating their places of residence. If the name or of residence of any person who ought ty be cited ennnot be ascertained, such fact shail be stated ix the citativn, The citation shall be served on the persons to whom it is directed, if they reside im the couuty, by deliver ing a copy at least eight days betore the dey appointed, if in unoiher county in tho State, fitteen days before the day appointed; on such persons as resiue out of the estate publication for six weeks and personal gervice or by mail if residence be ascertained. Betore proceeding to take the proof ot any will the Burrogate shall require satisfactory preot by ailluavit of the service of tue citation m the mode prescribed by law. This citation cannot be dispensed with except where a willis propoundod by the only party who 1s entitled to oppese it, For example the only heir at law or next of kin of the deceased, or whero all.the parties in interest unite in the petivion or appear ‘and waive service of citation. guardian ad litem is required and notice to the minor by citation. ‘The law, as you see, is very explicit. But suppose that the citations shai) not have been duly issued and served, yet it the will be admitted to probate it will be conclusive evidence of the validity of the will until such provate be reversed on appeal or revoked by the Sur- rogate or the will bo declared void by a competent tribunal Any of the next of kin may at any time within’ one year after such probate contest (he probate or the validity of the will, “It proper allegations in writing against the will, or Against the competency of the prool thereot” be pro sented, tho Surrogate tnust issue new citations to the executors who have undertaken the execution of the willand to tho legatees to show cause why the pro- Date should not be revoxed. After the service o: the citation the executor must Suspend all proceedings in relation to the estate, ex- cept the collection nnd recovery of moneys and the paymeut of devts, until adccision is had on the allega- tons, ‘The proof of the alleged will must be made anew, the former proceedings being regurded as a mere nullity, The burden of proof is on proponents of the will The Surrogate may annul or revoke the jormer probate. ‘The statute provides, however, that the executor Bhall nov be liable for any act done in good faith pre- vious to the service of the citation at the Lostance bf the contestants. So, in my opinion, a bond fide purchaser from the executor, prior to the date of ‘the titation in the contesting proceedings, would be secure in his purenase. Bad faith, wiltul neglect ‘or any traceable collusion on the part of any purchaser would, In case the executor had been guilty of bad faith 10 procuring probate of the will, make his purchase one of doubtful validity. 1 have not time to examine or consider now whether the official action by a surrogate in probating a will, when taken outside the Surrdyate’s court room, would be invalid on that accoun, Ordinarily the business of the Surrogate is transacted in tha court goom provided by law; indeed, I never kpew an instance otherwise, The sta as tollows:—The Surro- pene 4 the limits of the county for which he was appornted”” (or elected), The surrogates’ courts shall be at all times open for the hearing of any matters within the juri: ‘hereof, and ularly on Monday of each week it shail be the duty of te to aztend at his office to execute the powers ferred on him. courts, in counties in which the County Judie daties of the ofice the time and place at which the held ‘ounty courts sh * * * and he (the County Judge) ah the duties of the oltice of Surrog ito at such other times and places within his county as the publte In connties in whieh the daties of the office of Surro- pa . elect i be eriorm: otic: to pertorm rrr courts shall be heid.at the times and places as now provided by law. That means the office provided by the Board of Supervisors of the county. ‘The case then narrows itself to this:—Where county Judges acs as surrozaies the statute expressly author. izes them to perform their official duties elsewhere than tn their office, provided it bein the county. In other counties, where there is a surrogate, the statute 18 silent so tar as to Lie provision for official action ou side the Surrogate’s office. : WHAT SURROGATE CALY! 8. The reporter next visited Surrogate Calvin, with whom he held converse relative to the time and place of the proving of the will, which ts bere given:— Reroxter—Mr. Calvin, i you kindly inform me the reason why Mr. Stewart's will was probated at Mrs. Slewart’s house, without the issue of citations’ Surrogate Catvix—I think it was the very day I was | appointed, after 1 had quautied Ex-Judge Davies called on me in bebalf of Mra Stewart and Judge Hilton, saying that Mra, Stewart in very delicate beaith from her recent affliction, that it would be {great accommodation to them if I would consent to the probate at her house, and suggested that there were business reasons that rendered an carly Probation important. He did not state what the busi« bess reasons were. I suid I would cbeertally oblige them, and, in the meantime, he must procure the necessary blavks and have them drawn so as not to tuke unecessary time in periorming the duty. Judge Davies desired that I should call at the houxe at ten o'ciock on Good Friday morni r the purpose, but I feplied that it was my custom to attond church on Good Friday and could hot do it, He then suggested Thureday evening at eigut o'clock, which was alter the fanerat, and I acquiesced. I attended in a with that arrangement and the probate was taken. A copy of the will was delivered to me for purposes of tecord and public information, whieh I brought to this pilice about one o'clock on Friday. This was practi. tally my first act.

THE MUSTANG RACE. PARKER BEATEN AGAIN-—-BLINDNESS THE CAUSE OF WIS DEFEZAT—PERALTO'S FORTY MILES. George, otherwise “Bud,” Parker, attempted again Yesterday to ride 305 miles on thirty mustangs at Fleet wood Park and again failed trom the same carse that militated against bim upon his frst endeavor—biind- ness. Very many people who are familiar with eques- trianism ana its attendant fatigue when projonged to any great length of time and when kept up at so rapid A pace as ts necessary to accomplish 305 miles in fif- teen hours, questioned the propriety of the managers of this race in selecting Parker to attempt the feat alter his previous failure, They would much rather have seen Peralto, the Mexican, undertake the task, for he is mnch hghter than Parker and can endure more fatigue than the young Californian, The managers, however, insisted on ailowing Parker to ride, ‘THE START. Promptly at four o'clock yesterday morning, long before the sun had shown himself above the eastern hills bordering the track, and while yet the dew glistened upon the ercen fields and verdant shade trees round about, Parker mounted his. horse—a trim, closely-built sorrel—and dashed away around the track, riding to the westward. At this time tnere were not more than fifty people present, nearly all of whom were representatives of the metropolitan press or were inoue Way or another personally interested in the race. Parker, who bad been for the last two weeks under the care of a physician, rode with moro ease and freedom than before, und, to quote his own words, felt every confidence in bis ability to accomplish the hercu- Jean task before him. Just 2m. 263/s, elapsed from the starting of the rider until he passed under the wire at He rode the same horse twice theend of bis first mile. around and accomplisaca the secona mile in 2:26, This pace was kept up, or at least nearly & first ten miles, which were made in 24m, 54a, without anything worthy of note transpiring. Indeed, the monotony of the race was wholly unbroken until the seventcenth mile was being ridden, and then an ‘accident, which was near terminating the race, oc- curred, Parker had mounted a sleck pustang which, previous to being starte course, showed no ‘vice.’ When ly opposite the sheds mustang bolied, and, t iret from tho stand and while nes where the horses are kept the despite the rider’s vigorous application of the cowhide aud Lis eudeavors to keep the brute on the track, jumped clear over the fence, throwing Parker as ho made the leap. This was very serious for Parker, who was now on one side of the fence while his harse was on the other, pulling and tugying at the lari t which tho prostrate horseman pluckily held on to, despite the fact that he was dragge! some ten or fifteen fect. At last the stable attendants secured the unruly animal and Parker arose io bis feet, but immediately fell again, He got up once more after the lapse of a few seconds, and, having been advised by his physician that no bones were broken and no serious damage dono, mounted the mustang which had so recently unseated nim and dashed down the track at a rattling pace, ac- complishing the mile, including time lost by being throwa, in 4m, 2758. THE FIRST FIFTY MILES. The second ten miles were gone over in 27m. 3118 , the third in 25m. 27448, the fourth in 25m, 4148. and the fifth In 26m. 8032s. a total of 2h, 17:¢m_ for the first filty miles. To accomplish this distance Parker changed horses thirty times. He par- took of no refreshment whitever, save a glass of water, and this fact | occasioned considerabio untayorable comment, as many standing by remarked that *'Too much water spoiled him-the first time,” He rode well, however, aud gave no signs of being fatigued in the least. His manner of mount- ing and dismouuting was a great improvement on his efforts in this direction two weeks ago. He did not appear to exert bimself so much as formerly. This may bo accounted for by the tact that the horses were, as arule, more docile than on either of the previous occasions, ONE NUNDRED MILES. Tho one hundredth mile was completed at the expi- ration of 4h. 38% The interest was now on the in- crease But very few people were present. At about o'clock the solling of pools. on the contest began, time —_ being ~— the _—_ favorite atodds of two to one, nie, which was finished at 1h. Om. 55s, Parker was just 55 seconds behind time, Ho was still riving 80 well, however, that it was thought that he would soon make up the time and even get ahead aga Betore starting ‘on his 101st mile he was taken to the judges’ stand and rubved aown and given some refreshments by the doctor. This operation consumed 8 minutes. STRICKEN TLIND. At 1h. 51m. 15s. Parker accomplished his 200th mile and began to show signs of blindness. fio was still quite fresh and even vigorous, but on dismounting experi- enced no little difficulty in finding his way to the next horse. He had been wearing oyeglasses since the 130th mile, and those who witnessed bis first trial felt con- fident that ere many more miles were ridden the lucky Californian would be compelied to succumb, Nor were they wrong, for on completing the 20°th mile the rider staggered to the stand and remained there twenty minutes, The loss of so much time at this stage of the race settled the question of a victory for time, but the judges ordered the blind man out again, and once more he mounted and started on what aad now become a hopeicss task, After riding a mile he dismouuted again and lost 11 minutes, Ho kept on 1 this way until he had made 216 miles, when he | got off, and, putting both hands to his eyes, was led inte the stand a defeated inan. won the race had his eyes not failed him he turned a band spring in the stand, danced a jig and did variouc other things that aman badly fatigued or much ex- hausted could not uccomplish. PERALTO'S FORTY MILK SPIN. Atter a lapse of five minutes the judges announced the race over, for the reason above given, and also de- clared that Peralto, the Mexican, would at once under- take to ride forty miles in two hours, using ten mus- tangs. It was five mimutes to four o’clock when | | goal The clabs were still swin; | “Look out for my bead,” Parker dismounted for tho last timo, he yo been riding eleven hours and fifty-five minutes, Peralto rode the forty miles in one hour and forty-three min- utes and thirty scconds, His fastest milo was tho first one ridden, being made in 2in. 108, At the conclusion of the Mexican’s riding the pby- sician who had been in attendance upon Parker stated to the reporters that he would have stopped the race two hours before he did but for the fact that by so doing he would have burt the financil prospects of the owner of the horses; in other words, would stop the gate receipts. Parker was completely blind in his Tight eye at two o'clock, and when be stopped ricing could not see at all. There were present during tho latter part of the race about 5,000 people.

Fair skie: id pleasant weather seem to be specially allotted to the coaching parties which daly accompany Mr. Delancey Kane on his trip to Pelham. Yesterday was no exception to the airy, suushiny days which ance the commencement of the coaching enterprise have brightened the way and enhanced the enjoyment of the healthiul recreation the drive affords At halt. past ten the coach both imside and out had its tall quota of passengers.

HOWLAND ROBBINS SIDE WINS—THE OPENING MATCH GAME OF THE WESTCHES~ TER CLUB. The first match game of the Westchester Polo Club was played sterday afternoon on their new grounds at Jerome Park, For tbe past six weeks a large force of workmen have been employed preparing the ground, and, after a complete course of draining and rolling, 1t has been transformed into quite a nice piece ofturf. The club house was opened yesterday, and the veranda and dining rooms were set with tables at which tho majority of the members and their gucsis tested the excellence of the cuisine botore returning to the city. The ball room attached to the club house, is built im an octagonal design and very handsomely {reseoed inside with bright colors, With such accommodations the members will be able to give their friends some very evjoyablo receptions during the scasor, The governors of the Westchester Polo Chub are W. P. Douglas, William Jay, Delancey A. Kane, T. Bronson, 8. N. Kane, T. Newbold, A. T. Rice and James G. Bennett, Mr. 8. H. Robbins ts the Sec- rotary and Treasurer of the club, The uniform of tho club is light bine Jerseys, liglit blue Jersey caps, with silver band; light blue belts, breeches and butener boots. During the morning Mr. Blasson and his corps of assistants were busily engoged fugging out the bound. aries of the grognd, Setting tho goal posts and erecting the marquees that were put up behind each goal, A marking board to signal the results of the games was aléo put up i a position facing the clnb house. Over @ hundsed comfortable camp stools were ranged on the it of the club house for tho accommodation of the gucsts, and an awning was also ted that covered some twenty-five other seats, ponies wore all saddied and bridled, and tied up the:r heads to the toot ot the stall, ready for in- spection, and they certainly retlected credit on the head groom, as they wero looking as fine as silk. OPENING THE GAME, Shortly after four P. M. the carriages began to ar- rive-—tirat a tandem, driven by Mr. Gussie Jay; then Mr. Kane, in a Stanhope phaeton, followed wy innumer- able other conveyances-ol every build and description, About Lall-past four P.M. Mr. W. P, Dougiss and their horses looking as if the pulling bad been a trille heavy. Two other drags arrived shortly afterward, and then the in tho match made their appearance, and spurred, ready for the tray. Shortly before tive P. M. the ponies were brouzht, end the players, getting into the picskin, took a preiiminary canter and knocked a ball avout in order to gei their hand in. The umpire then made his appearance and ordered the players to take up their respective positions, Both sides tien ranged themselves in front of their goals and awaited the starting signal The following are the names of the players:— Howland Robbins (Captain), J, G. Bennett (Captain), Lora Mandeville, Schuyler Crosby, John Kane, A. Jay, W. ihorue, W. P, Douglas, John Mott, 8.8 Howl Colors—Red. Tbe match was to be played according to the rules of the club and the play to last 14 hours, the side gaining the most goals tn that time to be awarded the cup for which they contested, Mr. Robbins’ side wore red shirts and red caps, and their antagonists were at- tired in blue and white striped Jerseys and blue aud white forage caps. FIRST GAME, It was just five minutes after five P. M. when both sides were ranged in live, and then the umpire, pro- ceeding to the centro of the fieid, to-sed the ball im tho air and gave the word “Go.” Ou the first charge the leading piuyers all missed, and Jay made tho first bit, driving the ball avout twenty yards. Tho Reds rallicd, and seut the ball outside the bounds When it was thrown out Mr. Jay again bit it and carried it along a short distance, when Lord Mandeville came to the front and brought it down on the opposite side of the grounds. The players were slinging their mallets rather wildly, and had to be cautioned by the umpire. Alter aciose ight near the Blue's goal the ball was sent bebind, and had to be “hit out’? Tho contest now became very hot, and = at last, by some good play on the. part of the blues the ball was brought to the centre, buta backhander from Robbins brought the fight again neal the blues’ goal. Messrs. Juy: and Grosby then made dash and brought the ball within about thirty yards of the reds’ goal, when Lord Mandeville turaed the tide of affairs and carried the battle again in the camp of the blues, Both sides now closed in together, and tho ball kept between the ponies’ legs until at last one of the biues stole it away and created a slight diversion in their favor, but the red: were playing too strong, expecially Lord Mandeville and tir. Robbins, and the struggle was agnin resumed in front of the biwes’ goal. After an exciting five minutes, in which the play was nearly entirely continued to the same quarter of tho grounds, a clover hit by Lord Mandeville decided the first game and scored the reds one goal. The game was well contested and lasted soventeen minutes. The players then crossed over to change goals and took up their positions reaoy for the next game. The play on both sides was very good, and Messrs, Robbins, Jay, Crosby and Howland and Lord Mandeville showed & marked improvement in their accuracy m hitting. SECOND GAME. ‘As soon as the umpire had given the word both sides coarged and Mr. Jay struck the first blow, and backed up by Crosby, carried the ball up to the reds’ goal, when after a short fight 1 was brought back to the centre of Mr, Jay again made a good hit and being well backed up the ball was carried within about thirty fect of tho reds’ goal, but those determined goal keepers, Mr. Robbins and Lord Mandeville, made a close fight aod sueceeeded in turning the fortuncs tue game. There was now a rush to rush towatd the blue’s if wildly and cries of “Well played, Robbins,” were intermingled with arning voice of the um- pire, “Down mallets, gentiemen.’’ The biues fought closely to save the gamo, and at last, by a lucky stroxe, brought tne ball again to tne centre of the ficld. ‘Afier a bard fight, both sides playing closely, the ball was hit out to the right, and Mr. Robbing charged and bit it np within twenty vards of the Bluo’s carrying everybody with goal, There a general rust to that end of the ficld, and alter afew minutes’ sharp playiug the ball was hit behind, and #6 ball an hour had ciapsed since they commenced playing they all stopped for a rest. They bad tuen been playing thirteen inutes, After a rest of exactly filteen minates the players as- sembled in front of the blues’ goal, most of them on fresh ponies, and Mr. Jay made the “hitout.”’ The Blaes backed up well and carried the ball to the middio of the field, where it was hit out of bounds. It was rolled in amongst them once more and a close fight en- sued, where the mallets rattled together pretty lively, Mr. Robbins made a rattling bit, sending tho ball within a few tect of the goal, from whence one of the biues sent it behind. It was “hit out” into the centre of the players, and the blues, making a fierce rush, carried the fight to the centre of the fold. Messrs. Jay and ( aud they soon had the within a fow feet of the reds’ goal, but Mr, Robbins saved the game by a clover blow that drove the bullabout Gfty or sixty feet. The blues, however, made another vantage, when Mr. Robbing got a start and carried the ball single handed nearly 200 | yards, changing the seat of the conflict to the blues’ gov), The players were now becoming very excited, and the mallets were again bandied rather carclessly, Alter a pard fight the ®lues carried the bal) away trom ued now in the centre of the field. The time wai nearly up and the players were straining every pervo to gain another goal before they were ordered to stop. The reds agaia brought the ball down the biues goal and some live.y riding ensued as the vall was driven backward and jorward, aud kept on the move, each side gaining an aiternste advantage. The blucs finally carried the ball down in iront of the reds’ goal, aud then is was sent back to the centre ot the field, and alter some sharp play bit out close to tho blues’ goal. The ball was now rattied ail around the field, and then came a rush when « babe! of voices was raised:—“What are you dog!” “Go on Kane,” “Keep your mallets down,” “That's out,” +The ball is out,” **No it isn’t,”? “Rido him out,’ &¢, and a few minutes later the umpire cailed time, so the match was Gnished. Mr. Robbins’ won the cup, having gained o1 goal.

Some contended tI unfavorably, excluding some marksmen, while others who at iy their scores bave succeeded, through good luck, in getting among the leading sixteen. A proposition to add four more marksmen to the list of those who aro to contend again for the honor of a place on the ipternational team was can- vassed, but the matter was not determined. Ivis not unlikely, however, that some such action will be taken, nor doca it seem unreasonabic when the of some who were excluded are compared in de- some of those who failed to score an aggre- gato high enough to open to them a chance to get on the team, Yesterday, Colonel Farwell, who 1s not ot the successful sixteen, made ten consecutive bull's eyes out of his twenty shots at the 1,000 yards’ range— ® record said to be unprecedented at Creedmoor at that distance. Colonel Gildersiceve supervised the shooting both days. DUBLIN UNIVERSITY OARSMEN, THE ROWING AND BOAT CLUBS WORKING TO- GETHER—THE IRISH CENTENNIAL CREW. Dupurx, May 20, 1876, It would, under ordinary circumstances, be ip- decorous to reter to the domestic proceedings of a club, But anytbing affecting the status of the centen- nial oarsmen is of such gereral interest, that it may be considered as a matter of course public property. Relerence has been frequently made to the fact that there are two aq clubs im the University of Dub- Mu—the Rowing and the Boat Clab, The former is the senior; the latter has for its Vice Presidcnt the Rev, Jobn Leslie, one of the Fellows of Trinity College, whose reputation in connection with aquatics has crossed the Atlantic. The centennial crew who purpose appearing at Phila. delphia to support the honor of Dublin oarsmen is composed of men from both clubs. Ouly one, how- ever, Hickson, is from the Rowing Ciub; the other three, Pentland and the two Barringtons, are from the » Boat Club. This difference of clubs made no discord among the young men. But it was scen that some dif- ficulty might arise out of i, in this way:—In almost ali English and Irish regattas most of the coutesis are confined to crews of ‘‘recognized” boat clubs. Now, this crew did not belong 10 wny one recognized club; its members were members of two distinct clubs, all of them did not belong to the samo club. Perhaps this rule holds good 1 America alfo, and the crew might find, when too late, that they were debarred from entering jor some race at which they should havo liked to appear. The obvious romedy was to make thom all members of the same club. Accordingly Mr. Hickson was admitted an honorary member of the Bont Cinb, and the other three were ad- mitted to the houorary membership of the Rowing Ciub, But it was arged:—Perbaps honorary member- ship will not be looked upon as a sufficient qualification Under the ruio just re'erred to, At the same time it came to bo known that some influential members of the Boat Club were not pleased wih the comporite character of the centennial crew. They would have preterred that it should include none but Boat Uluy mocn. The Barringtons, however, wero siauch to tho choice of Hickson, who is generally recognized as a splendid oarsman, whose equal it would not be easy to find among Dublin mov. They would not give him up and take an iniecrior man. They acclined to go to America except with the best crew that coulu be ieked out of tue University... Acting under the jn- Ruence of the exclusionists, the Boat Ciub Committee forbade the use of the club boats or the club trainer (Kiffin) to tho vontenniai crew. Somo shrewd adviser here stepped in, and suggested that all difficulties would solved straight xway tf the three outsiders became ordinary members of the Rowing Clad. They accepted this suggestion. Their names were proposed by Messrs, Bushe and Millar, the vete- ran captain and tho secretary ot the club. To-day tho baliot was held, There was an unprecedented attend. ance of members. The three gentlemen, Pentland and she two Barring Or were unau:mously clected ordin- ary members of the Rowing Ciub. This decision is faily creditable to all parties, because Mr. Charica Barrington was one of the original seceders trom the Rowing Club, who founded the Boat Club, It isa sort of return @ ses premicrs amours, The four gentiomen boing now ordinary members of one and the same civb, are qualified to appenr as a crew of a recognized club at any regatta. On dit that at a meeting of the club to be held ina few days t will regularly authorized to represent the Rowing Club at the intercollegiate contest at Sarat if the dato of this event will allow of their appearance, In this case the formal answer will go from the Rowing Club in a few days to the Lntercollegiace Commitice, accepting their invita uon, which was previously dectined simply because the clab was not in a position to send a crew. Whether they will also appear at Heniey next mouth as a crew from the Rowing Club is not yes decidod. 1 will only add that their ree in touch im- i Tho two best rowers aro Hickson ana Charics ington, who, at present, are Nos, 2 aad 3, re- spectively, Pontiand and Croker Barrmgton (the bow stroke respectively) have still room for improve- mont, Their chief delect is that they slide too soon when they throw themselves jorward, and hence row more from their arms and less with the weight of their body than is aesirabie. But, notwith- stauding these defecta, they are a powerful crew. KNICKERBOCKER YACHT: CLUB On Tuesday the Knickerbocker Yacht Club had its opening day at Port Morris, About 100 ladics aud gen- tlemes assombied to onjoy the hospitality of the asso. ciation, which ts composed of the seading gentlemen of the annexed district, Assume of the larger boate, in- cluding Commodore Williams’ yacht Dudly, hare not yet gone into commission, no regular regatta was sailed, Thera was a scrub race iu the morning road | special race of eleven miles between the celebral mode! sloop yachts A.

The start was effected at 11h. 45m., Varian one-half minute behind, ‘Tho roturo was as follows:—Varian, 3b, 30m. ; Lizzie Belle, 3b. 38m.
