New Loxpox, Conn, July 2—The elev- enth in the annu ies of four-mile, eight- | oared, straight-away races, inangurated be: tween Yalo and Harvard in 157, was row this evening on the Thames river course Yale finished first in 20 min, 414 beat- g Harvard by several length nter- st into-day’s race was greater th Hre- vious one for the last eight years, and trains and steamers brought larze erowds to witness it. ‘The betting was heavy. Yale's shell was the first to move and Marvard was but an_ instant slower. Yale started with thirty-five strokes and Har- vard with thirty-six per minute. For 300 yards the struggle was a grand one, neither crew being able to gain any advant- age. Thon Harvard poked the noseof her boat slightly to the front. This advantage, however, was only momentary, Yale drew up on even terms at the first quarter and slowly butsteadily began to forge whead. At this point Yale was rowing in excellent form and pulling a long powerful stroke, Harvard was pulling the samo number of strokes but the inboard_work was noticeably inferior to that of the Yales. The half mile was reached ad gained a haf length the lead. Tl race for the next halt mile was very exciting. Yale dropped her stroke to thirty-four, but Harvard kept at thirty-six. Doiiig her hest Harvard could not hold Yale, and when the mile fla was reached the stern of Yale's bont was just clear of Harvard’s bow. ‘The enthusigsin was now at a high pitei, and the partisans of both crews shouted hemselves hoarse. The mile flag was passed n the fast tine . ; for Harvard, At the mile and a halt flag Yalo had added & h length to her lead, and began to take matters more easily, and_dropped down to thirty-two strokes per minute.

The negotiations which resulted in her undertaking the work were carried on principally by r. In her reply to the first letter in which the subject 18 broached, Miss Cleveland says: “1 quite agiee with your idea, and could not fail to have much enthusiasm in the eon- secration of my energles tovard its realiza- tion.

The handsome young wife of a prominent broker who “does business on the regnlar board came into the offics of a commission agent in the same building with me. It was just at the time when July wheat was making a big jump. You remember 1t reached 794 cent Well, the lady said she wanted to buy some July wheat, a: elt sure that it was going away up. Her husband, she said, was of o different opinion, and he s’ an active bear on the regular board, She felt uneasy about it, and was afraid that he wounld lose heavily. She had some money of her own, and had come to the conclusion that she would, unknown to her bearish other half put it on the other side of the market. My friend, the ecommi agent, who knew both husband and wife well, ‘entered into the scheme with the lady, and ho invested her money as she directed, July wheat the next morning went a3 8 or 4 cents, and the husband 1 across the street lost about all he had.

Some day she will appear again, and then her former aequaintances will recall her. “Why, we have missed yougreatly; where have you been?’ And then the same stereotyped reply: *Oh, [ have lost an actual operation in all interest in speculation and gave it up long ago.

But she couldn’t ieep away, and she will be dab- blin\e‘; in it before the bell rings; you'll see,” says offe spiteful little sharp-eyed woman to her companion. And so it was. The woman who had given up the business was seen in close conversation with her old broker in less than five min- utes. ©*0b, 1 have been about here for two or three years,” said a handsomely dressed lady with gray eyes, gray hair, and a dress. ‘I have become what they eall a hardened speculator now.

The first race of the association of trotting horse breeders took place yester. day afternoon at the driving park. The attendance was as large as could have been expected, because it is really a fact that this meeting has not been adver- tised as it should have been by the man agement, The gentlomen composing the latter, however, admit that such is the case, and, by way of excuse, say that they are young in the business, and when the next meeting eomes around a year hence, tney wiil make amends for v: ignorance. To-day, however, the attendance wili be much larger. The programme printed below is an evidence thatit will be worthy of ag many peopls as ean be induced to attend both from a thome and abroad In connection with this meritorious en- tertamment is coupled the fact that the races are conducted on the principls of undeviating honesty and that jockeying and hippodroming will not b tolerated: Yesterday w n many respects, an excellent day for the sport. The sky was clear, the air warm, though the dust was volatile. 1t lay in a thick mantle upon the track, and while it did not occasion great annoyance, its absence would been more” appreciated than other- wise. The judgoes were Dr. Peck, of Omaha, Henry Fry, of York, and Judge Hay- ward, ot Nebraska City. The r called and responded promipt first race wasa trotting mateh for TWO-YEAR-OLDS. First heat: Out of thirteen entries there but four st g y W Waldemar, MeCormi Potter and Nelly . The heat was mile which was made in 1:41} by Count Walden Chas.

Count Walde- mar took first money and Chas MeCor- mick and Nellie G. divide1 second. In the first heat, free for all, Van Duke got the pole, Almont and Ethan Allen hung on the The last mentioned broke y startand ran along for a _little distance, Van Duke following his example and enabling Almont Gift, who had started outalittle behind, to gradually get into the pole. Here he kept during the re- mainder of the heat, at times leading both ecompetitors with kingly air anc nce. Van Duke broke badly frequently 1d Ethan Allan finally lett ?lim behind The heat was who was held back at the clo.

Each of the two first mentioned alternated botween breaks and attempts to make up for lost space. These spurts were noticeable for several .successful “recovers’’ on Van Duke’s part just as he was about to raise ofl his feet. They wero also gonerally followed by sharp contests between him and Allen which the former capable of good speed, but the latter of better staying qualities. The was virtually botween these two, both going under the wire almost neck and neck, with Van Duke on the jump.

He made the double cirele without a break and would have come down the home stretch in to have commanded the admi everybody did his driver not hold him back to enable Van Duke and Ethan Al- len to make up about a quarter of a mile and save distancing. Almont Gift won the heat and race i 2:44, Ethan Allen second and Van Duke third.

S. C., of John D. Creighton, Omaha; Coppermont, of Lovett, Red Ciond, and Dude, of Mc- Keith, North Platte. Before the first heat Pyle filed a protest against the entry of J. 8, C.,claiming that_ he was four yearsold. The owner, Mr. Creighton, Claimed that, so far as he knew, the colt not more than three years of age. He had bought him of P. P, Shelby, now of Salt Lake City, and had received from him at the time of the purchase, a certifi- wa cate as to his age and where he had been raised and by whom brought to this part of the country, Mr. eighton claims that the colt had been foaled in 1833 and that he was just tiwee years and three months old. "He knew a kic 18 going to be made be- cause he had got into a little misunder- standing with some of the drivers around the barns. The jundges appointed three experts to report upon the age of the horse in question and their r.qlmrl was , 80 far as they could see, the horse was' but thre¢ years old, The judges then ordered thedriver to take ‘his seat and get ready. Phabe Hufl won the pole, Littlejohn second, Dude third (Ju&nwrnloul fourth ida C fifth and J. 8. C. sixth. Seve ineffectual attempts at scoring having been made, at length, a pretty fair start was given. Dude broke before he had gone twenty feet, Lida C pulling to the lead followed by Coppermont. J. 8. C. shot ahead in a_ heavy steady ait and gradually crowded Phaebe, Littlejohn and Dude to the right. ¥or a time Coppermont and Lida trotted nicely, the former’s nose grazing the tire of Lid ulky. They kept in this relative position until they neared the grand stand on the first turn when Lida C's protty strides stepped into & break and “oppormont forged aleaa, This ach ment was greeted with applause. Cop- permont muintained an excellent gait throughout the rest of the race.

It seemed a pity to so cover him up upon a roasting dav, but it added considerably to the size of his head, and gave him almost the appear- ance of a full grown animal. The at- tendance foted him with cheers. When he started, he took the pole with ease, and trotted from the wire until the h was finished, with a regularity of gait and seeming intelligonce of purpose worlhf of admiration. Coppermont lagged behind, sometimes a3 many as ten lengths which he vainly endeavored to close. J.S.

GENEKRAL SII;‘}R\[:\N IN OMAHA. The Old Hero Passes Through the City on His Way to the Coast. In his “Half Hours with Great Men'’ Bill Nye tells of an interesting conve tion he once had with General W A Sherman. They were both engaged in an attack upon an of indestructible ham sandwiches in a Union Pacific lunch counter out m Wyoming. Nye opened the conversation by asking General Sher- man to puss him the molasses. General Sherman reponded that he would do so if, in return, Nye would overpower the butter and send it down to him, and with this exchange of courtesies the conve tion ended. A reporter for the Beg had an interview with General Sherman yes- terday afternoon which, while it may not contain as much food for reflec tion as did Nye's, would make a good second to it in~ point of brief- ness. Attached to the incoming 4 o'clock dummy train from Council Binfis yuwnluy afternoon was the Puilman sleeper Elmwood, which contained Gen- eral Sherman and his daughter, who ar~ rived from St. Louis yesterday afternoon over he Wabash. 7The car run on the side track near the Union Pacific denot while a carringe was being secured tor the general’s use. The old veteran ] d at an open window, engaged in an effort to appear cool. There was no mistaking the large head, high fore- head, small, sharp chin, the sharp fea- tured face, the clusely cropped gray beard, ard the cold gray eye, and quite an audience gathe on the plat- form at a respectiul distance “and = sized up the general and the occupants of the car. A Bgg reporter attempted to gain an audience with the old hero, but W pmnuli', t firmly, restrained from getting higher thun the first step to the car platform. A change of tactics was adopted, General Sherman arose and walked leisurely down the aisle toward the rear of the egr, When he reached the door he met the admiring gaze of the reporter from the, rc"u' platform. The general was vlsib] faffdcted, but he could not express his feelings, as the door was locked, and a sedrith th his pockets satis- fied him that somehody else had the key. He was not to be outdene so easily, how- ever, and lowered the window in the door and opened the conversation with:— *“Who are you?", “A Bk reporter, Gy “What's the matter with you?"' **Nothing, si instyered the “I just wanted to know if there w thing the matter of you.” Then roali that he had put hw ¥ost in it, he recov ered himself and smilingly made the brilliant inquiry: === I3 General Sherman in the cars” “I don’t know. fiMaybe he is,” replied the w jor. “General Sherman and his daughter are on their way to California. Gencral Sherman don’t want to see any reporters,” and with this parting shot the scribe. good man sought the privacy of the more central part of the car. The repor withdrew from the guying gaze of the porters and other attendants as soon as possible About 5 o'clock General Sherman and daughter were met by General Chambers and daughter and a few others and taken for a drive through the city. They took supper at the Paxton and left on the evening train for California. Colonel Dickey's Spoons.
