T J,P HeMilta of the College Regatta
yesterday a Great Triumph for
Cornell Victory in Four-oared
Race Was Easy, But It Required
Work to Win tile Other Two—A
Splendid Show of Reserve Force
Made in Eight-oared Race When
Wisconsin Was Pushing Hurd—Co
lumbia Came in Third.
Poughkeepsie, N. Y., June 21.—Cor
nell won all three of the events in the
Inter-collegiate amateur association
regatta to-day. The four-oared race
ivas a bit of easy work for her, but
In both the Freshman and "Varsity
eights she was so closely pressed that
she had to win them in the last half
mile by a of reserve force
which none of the other crews could
bring to bear. The summary follows:
Four-Oared Race, Two Miles—Cor
nell first by five lengths; time,
10:43 3-5; Pennsylvania second by
three and a half lengths; time,
10:54 4-5; Columbia, third; time 11:08.
Freshman Eight-Oared Race, Two
Miles— Cornell first by two and three
quarter lengths; time, 9:34 4-5; Wis
consin second by two and a half

Cornell won the greatest triumph of
her history in boating. The Ithacans
literally swept the Hudson, winning
all three events in the intercollegiate
regatta, the ’Varsity, the Freshman
and the foar-oared races. In each race
the crews, coached by Charles Court
ney, had to fight all the way from
start to finish for victory. l"n only
one of the three race did the Ithacans
dare at any time to let down on their
speed. The Wisconsin boys won the
second honors of the day, and to
them belongs great credit for the
splendid fights which they made in
the 'Varsity and Freshman races, in
both of which events they finished
strong second to Cornell. In all three
races Columbia finished third. In
none of the races were the records
touched, but in all three events the
times were not far above the fastest
that have been made on this course.
Despite the clouds and rain a big
crowd came to see the races. All through
the morning it seemed as though post
ponements would be necessary, but as
the hour for the first race of the day
came the wind died away and gradu
ally the sun fought its way through a
nasty gray sky.
t oiild Have Lowered Record.
the races were all rowed under
rpleniid conditions, the crews had a
fair wind with them. Courtney says
that his ’Varsity eight had power
enough to have lowered the record of
15:53 1-5 seconds, made by Cornell last
year, if his crew had only been hard
er pressed. The Ithacans now make
public the fact that a week ago they
came within four seconds of the rec
ord. and that they are sure they would
have done better this afternoon if they
had had to fight a little more on the
last mile.
The story of the big ’Varsity race is
that of a hard struggle for all six
crews for four long miles. For almost
a mile the long graceful shells were
lapped in the struggle. Over the sec
ond mile Cornell began to gather her
h ad, but Columbia hung to Wisconsin
lor second place with a deadly grip,
while Georgetown was almost nose and
nose with the Netv Yorkers, and with
Pennsylvania and Syracuse only a
few feet behind. This was the order of
the boats right up to the last half
mile, where Pennsylvania spurted and
finally Syracuse jumped ahead of
Georgetown only a few yards from the
finish.
Over the last two miles or th race
Cornell widened the gap between her
and Wisconsin little by little, but twice
the boys from Wisconsin spurted and
Tulled the Ithacans back. Golumbia
bung to Wisconsin up to the three-mile
flag and even at the beginning of the
last half Wisconsin was leading the
New York boat by only a length and a
half. Georgetown held fourth plaice in
the race up to the last half-mile,
when Pennsylvania pulled away. The
Washington boys struggled hard, but
finally fell back to sixth and last
place in the struggle.
How the lince Was Run.
All six crews In the ’Varsity race
got away in good style, but the Cornell
boat soon began to get ahead. At the
end of the quarter mile the Ithacans
had their shells a good quarter of a
boat length ahead of the Badgers. It
was a race to warm up
the most cold blooded. From the long
observation train cheers broke the
stillness of the Hudson. Cornell and
Wisconsin were wild with excitement,
while Columbia was delighted with
the way in which her crew was fight
ing for the lead.
At the end of the first mile Wisconsin
bad cut down Cornell’s lead by half
a . length and the Ithicans were about
a quarter of a length in the lead. Co
lutnhia had fallen back half a lengh
more behind Wisconsin, Georgetown
was now a quarter of a length behind
Columbia, with Pennsylvania ten feet
bf-hind and Syracuse a half length
back. The Ithacans had plainly Set
tled into their pace and were rowing at
thirty-two.
Over the next half-mile Cornell be
gan to make up what she had lost. Llt
tiP by little the Ithacans pulled away
, m Wisconsin until they were lead
'n* by a f u u length. The Badgers
""re still ready to bet that they would
"in the race, and their hopes leaped
a * R ln as their crew, rowing at Iwo
points lower per minute, passed the
wo-mlle flag with" Cornell about sev
"-elghts of a length to the good.
, J 'be three-mile flag the race seem
to b over, for Cornell was now
>n Kths ahdfid. But the Badgers
~’ r * n °t yet whipped. Once more
"v spurted and once more they cut
down Cornell’s lend by a quarter
a length before the Ithacans
Rained the three-and-one-half

INDIANA MINERS OPPOSE STRIKE,
May Agree to Cut Down Outpnt of
Coal, However.
Indianapolis, June 21. —The miners of
the Clinton district are almost unani
mous in opposing a strike. Still, it is
by no means certain that even a ma
jority of the delegates from here will
vote to continue work. The Indiana
miners may follow the example of the
Central Pennsylvania district, and cut
down the output of coal, pending a
settlement of the anthracite strike.
There is no open indication, however,
that this policy will be adopted in the
state.

doo would cause her husband to return
to her. Having waited several days,
and no husband returning, the woman
made it so warm for the preacher that
he was arrested on Friday and taken

Following: the Flowers
Is a title always associated with the name of the author of that column in the Ladies' Home Journal. Eben E.
Rexford, the Shiocton, Wis., poet and story writer. One always thinks of a nature lover like Mr. Rexford as the
possessor of bounding health and superabundant vitality, ao it sounds odd to hear that he was a confirmed
dyspeptic not so very long ago. The story of his trouble and its cure is best told in Mr. Rexford’a own words.
“Having need of a remedy for indigestion” writes the floricultural editor of
THE LADIES’ HOME JOURNAL
“I decided giving Kodol Dyspepsia Cure a trial, expecting only temporary relief, but am glad to say tkat a few
bottles afforded permanent relief and restored the tone of the digestive organs to its natural condition. I can
heartily recommend U ' NORMAL CONDITIONS
are referred to bv Mr. Rexford as natural conditions. This is undoubtedly the correct view. The normal man is a
healthy man. Health depends on the digestion. If the digestion is good the health is good. If the digestion is
poor the general health always suffers.
DIGESTION IS NATURAL; INDIGESTION UNNATURAL
Rut so many of us have strayed away from natural conditions that few people are really healthy. Hasty eating,
i evular hour 9 mild dissipation, a dozen other stomach destroying customs of the day have made dyspepsia and
i digestion the characteristic complaints of the generation. If the sufferers knew how easily such troubles can
be cured there probably wouldn’t be so many of them.
KODOL DYSPEPSIA CURE
will do just as much for others as it did for Mr. Rexford. It is not so
■ .•■•jL, much a medicine as a digestant. There have been and are other dya
pepsia remedies which afford temporary relief by digesting certain
>- classes of food. What is really wanted, however, is a preparation
w ajjHjlßß which will digest all classes without the stomach’s aid. This is the
result accomplished by Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It is the only prepara
i tion which digests any and every kind of food. You need variety. A
i] *3 diet is often injurious. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure renders a diet entirely
unnecessary. It rests the stomach by digesting what you eat. This
■*¥ rest * n d the wholesome tonics contained in Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
,0' x soon restores perfect health.

Colds are considered one of the nec
essary Ills of life. One is liable to catch
cold both summer and winter. Vep’
often sjimmer colds prove fatal. They
are always dangerous.
A cold is the beginning of catarrh. It
may cause catarrh of any of the inter
nal organs—the head, throat, lungs
and stomach, or pelvic organs. A reme
dy that will cure a cold then would
cure all these direct effects of colds.
Peruna Is such a remedy. We have let
ters from all over the United States
attesting to this fact. The poor and
rich alike use and recommend it. A

ALONE IN LONDON.
Bitter Struggle With Poverty of a
Child Born In the Slums.
From the London Telegraph.
Under the title of “Alone In London"
our columns yesterday contained the
story of a little London girl beyond
all words melancholy In Its' Incidence,
but at the same time, we fear, of con
stant occurrence. Jessie Smith’s tale,
told by her own little starved lips, is,
however, not less full of grave sub
jects for reflection because it is or
dinary. She had tasted the solitude
worse than that of the unpeopled des-
ert or the unpeopled ocean. In a pop
ulation of some 5,000,000 this city maid
en of 12 years was without one single
friend or protector.
Up to the age of 7 she had lived In
some precarious and miserable man
ner with ner parents in a dark and
dirty court turning off from Oxford
street. When she was 7 her father
died, and shortly afterward the moth
er was taken ill and had to go to the
infirmary, between which Institution
and the little hole rented In the dingy
court Ihe seems to have oscillated
during the last five years, often main
tained by the child rather than main
taining her. For Jessie Smith picked
up a sixpence now and then, it ap
pears, from jobs in the court, minding
babies, running errands- and the like,
and had all the courage and resource
of an Arab of the pavement.
A month ago her mother stied, and,
deprived of such scant assistance as
her poor hands had rendered. Jessie j
was at last conquered In her long i
fight with hunger, sickness and pov
erty. When she had eaten her daily
crust of bread and drunk her watered
milk there was no longer sixpences
enough to pay for the weekly lodging;
and, dreadful as It must appear to the
point of incredibility, the landlord cast
her forth Into the gutter, and the
neighbor* of flee * court mw her cast
forth without a hand to help her.

her pinching hunger.
London children of this unhappy
class never think until the last turn
of the screw about Invoking the aid of
the pplice. They are, on the contrary,
’ brought up to regard the "copper" as
their natural enemy, and we can make
some estimate of the depth of despair
reached by Jessie Smith when we learn
that at last, at the bitter end, the lit
tle maid of the pavement, broken,
beaten, crushed by calamities, gave up
all and “asked & policeman.” Very
kindly he took Jessie Into custody for
the crime of being starved, ragged,
friendless and without “visible means
of subsistence.”
Thus her pathetic story oame out be
fore Mr. Plowden, at Marylebone Po
lice Court, but accompanied by such
copious floods of tears that it was
necessary for the court missionary to
hear her story In pirvate and then to
communicate It to the Bench. Then did
little Jessie Smith find that a "cop
per” can be, as it were, a messenger
of mercy and a magistrate as good as
a fairy godmother. The only bit of
blue that ever showed In the sky of
her life broke now through Its dark
clouds. Our report runs: “Mr. Plowden
said to the child, ‘Don't be unhappy
any more. You have gone through a
rough time. Things are going to mend
for you now.’ ”
As for the tale itself, In general as-
pects and features it is only too co-m
--: man, too constantly recurring. For too
i’many of the boys and girls of the class
, to which Jessie Smith belonged. Lon-
I don Is, as It was to her, & wateriest
desert, a tractless, lonely ocean, a sol
itude In which five millions of living
souls ,1o not break the silence and the
terror. The points In the story which
are strange, if truly narrated, are. first,
that a landlord should hiave turned the
child adrift with such apparently Inhu
man brutality; and, secondly, that the
neighbors should have allowed this 12-
year-old gutter-maid to drift so sud
denly out of sight of them all along
the stream which flows towards shame
or starvation.
No doubt those who live upon th*
rent of these slum estates must, and
will, collect their -weekly money, and
pity is a costly luxury, In which they
do not often Indulge. But Gee’s court,
Oxford street, must have known a
great deal about Jessie Smith and her
ill-luck, her sufferings and her strug
gles. and Gee’s court must be very
different from other localities of the
same kind in this prodigious metrop
olis if It did not hold one nun or wo
man whose heart melted toward the
child, and whose humanity could not
find some little corner for the !2-yer
old orphan better than a hard door
step or * filthy ■table.
