INDIAN CYCLE CLUB'S RUN. The Indian Cycle Club will ride to Rock away to day, according to the monthly schedule issued by the road committee several weeks ago. The start will be from the club house at 9 A.M. A very interesting programme has been arranged, including the mile tandem race between four of the club members and a sciousneBs completely. The Yale eight this season is just the sort that has gained for the university the soubriquet of as applied to athletics.

It is not remarkably fast, but it will last. Harvard men base their hopes on the Cambridge boat's speed. There can be no doubting of the fact that the shell is a good traveler. Some say the crew Is the best which Harvard has had since 1S85, when Yale was badly beaten. There is a snap and dash about the Harvard crew that is totally lacking in Yale's shell and the ragged, uncertain work, which has characterized the work of several Cambridge eights in recent summers, has totally disappeared.

If the 'varsity race was' to be contested over the freshmen course, that of two miles, instead of four. Harvard would forge to the front a high favorite on account of its unquestioned superiority at sprint rowing. But then conies the question of endurance. Can Harvard last the 'varsity distance? If it cannot, all the clean blade work, leg action and short lived speed will go for naught and college historians will chalk up another victory for the blue. Harvard rowing methods have occasioned considerable discussion during the past week by reason of the resignation of Coach Andy O'Dea, who came to Cambridge from the University of Wisconsin.

O'Dea declared that it was not to his taste to be employed as rowing coach and then be obliged to expound another man's ideas, against his own convictions. Close upon O'Dea's resignation, came the statement of William BJalklo, an ex Harvard crew man, to the effect that other stand Morrell Challenge Cup the Event of the Tourney.

With this game Blackburne will he able to make a strong bid for the brilliancy prize of the tournament.

Scores: ItCY l.Ui'KZ. The Kings County Amateur Signally Defeated in a Mile Match Race. Famous Manhattan track, one of the pio neer cycle ovals in the country, opened its season yesterday, in the faca of somo big rival attractions, but notwithstanding the Suburban and the other opposition shows, nearly 3,000 gathered there to see big McPar land win the Atlantic sweepstakes and its prize of $500. The lavish display of amusement features during the day certainly made the date unlucky for the opening, but the cyclists held their own and the Atlantic Athletic Association did more than its share. The card was made up of straight racing, the main attractions being the big handicap for the professionals and the match race between the amateurs Kramer and Schofleld, in which the Kings County crack was signally beaten.

Hardly less interesting to the amateurs was the half mile championship of the Metropolitan district, in which little Kramer again showed the winning flash of speed. Altogether Kramer was quite an idol. The riding of Carl Wise, the professional, who made such a stir in 1897, was a big surprise until it came to the two mile race, in which the pace was too great. In the third of a mile dash Klser came to the front in both his heat and the EnaUwith his old familiar loping sprint and won like a streak in the final few yards. Bald, the popular idol of past years, has not yet rounded Into form and was away off, being beaten by second raters in the dash and quitting in the handicap after a hard ride.

The Atlantic stake was the biggest ever offered in this country for a sprint race, since the Quill Club handicap of $1,000, in '97, which was won by Fred Titus. A field of thirty five gave three rattling good heats "with five to qualify in each and the number of spills in the heats proved the nervous strain under which the riders labored. The first heat was unlucky for Freeman on scratch, and for Kramer and Hedstrom, all of whom fell in the last lap, Hedstrom dislocating his collar bone. Freeman and Stevens had made a hard ride to catch the markers and Stevens, when Freeman fell, went out and won the heat, Newhouse finishing close up in second place. Furman, Huffstetter and Ireland also qualified.

The second heat was McFarland's, he and Kimble doing some good work and Hadfleld, who was third, being allowed to do a great deal of wobbling and looking back in both the heat and final. Hadfleld was responsible for a bad fall to Goodman and Becker In the home stretch. Downing and Kramer slipped through the mess and qualified. The third heat found the two old rivals, TloM an1 fwnop rtr, onpqtnTi nnrl TTIant. of QA yards.

None of the trio had the speed to do 4:09 1 5, which was WaltJiour's winning time with. Mertens, Miller, Billy Sims and Shafto behind him, although Cooper was Just behind Shafto, ridden out. McFarland beat the pistol in the final by just a fraction and be was bunched with Caldwell, Stevens, Kimble and Hicks at the first lap. At the second lap they had overtaken Hadfleld. The whole bunch came back at the third lap and in the back stretch Stevens pulled into the front rank with McFarland on his wheel and Hadfleld lapping.

Kimble quit at four. Stevens held the commanding position as the field slowly wound around to the last lap, "when Mertens came up close on the pole and tried to dislodge McFarland. They went down the backstretch, slowly unwinding speed. At the sixth pole Newhouse came up and McFarland broke into a sprint. Around the turn they swept with McFarland, the greatest of all handicap cyclists, in the lead, and Newhouse challenging.

McFarland shot ahead for a length and looked an easy winner, when Newbouse with a grand burst of speed closed up the gap, and as they crossed the tape he was but a bare half foot behind and still gaining. The match race between Kramer and Scho fleld was a pretty contest, although disappoint ing to the local crowds. Two single pacers. Relyea and Van Cott, were put in, each taking one lap. In the first heat both riders refused to take the pace and remained on their marks.

A toss up of a coin and Kramer bad to take the position. Schofleld hung on and at the Bprint went by, winning by half a wheel, In the second heat. Kramer followed the same plan and jumped out for a clean win of four lengths. In the deciding heat Kramer took the pace and after pulling his rival oil the way, won handily. SUMMARIES.

Seldom has there been a season when the Inter collegiate boat races were enveloped in so much uncertainty as they are at present. It is not difficult to find confident devotees of every college to be represented either at New London or Poughkeepsie. University of Wisconsin Is possibly the only one which has not a host of backers in the East and their absence is probably due to a lack of any knowledge here as to the Badger's rowing form. Pennsylvania, once regarded as the under dog in aquatics, so to speak the crew which usually swamped before the last quarter of W. MACKAY, Captain of the Columbia 'Varsity Eight, Now at Poughkeepsie.

the course was completed is more than a winning possibility at Poughkeepsie. Nothing has occurred within the last fortnight to depreciate the belief that the Quakers will row In even better shape than they did last year on Saratoga Lake, when Cornell was beaten. Reports indicate that the Quakers' shell is moving to the entire satisfaction of Coach Ward and when once the men are used to the ruffled surface of the Hudson they have been training heretofore on smooth water speed and plenty of it, will follow. Columbia has been at Poughkeepsie for two weeks, but it is hard to say what are the prospects of the crew. Und'er Dr.

Peet's tireless and painstaking coaching there has been a constant improvement in form, but at the present writing no means are at hand for knowing what the eight can do in the way of fast pulling. Dr. Peet unquestionably knows what he is about, however, and as it was under his guidance that Columbia won In 1895, the men of the university have fair reason for feeling sanguine. If Columbia should win on the Hudson this year the victory would give the college athletics just the boom that they neea. uoiumma atnietlcs at present may be said to be in the balance.

Elaborate plans and preparations have been made for the future maintenance of a variety of sports, but judging from precedent, it would require only a slight depressing influence to place a pall over the whole revival. A crew victory for Columbia at this time would be most opportune. Cornell must not be overlooked in the coming race. Very little has been heard regarding the Ithacan eight, but the little reliable information which has been cast abroad seems to indicate that the usual course of events has been under way on Lake Cayuga. There has been a great deal of shifting in the Cornell boat this spring rather more than usual.

With reference to rowing, Courtney is ruler of all he surveys at Ithaca. His word is that of an absolute monarch, and no man is so good as to be sure of his seat in the boat. Although to some minds the constant changing of men in a shell may not be conducive to the best results, it certainly keeps oarsmen keyed up to their best work during every training day. Courtney's undisputed power, his' love of Tair play and abhorrence of favoritism are almost wholly respon sible for Cornell uniform success. The crew, as it is rowing at present, still needs the coach's attention, but it is a Cornell eight, and the mere name means that on the day of ARMSTRONG.

YALE '35, Who Has Assisted Gallantly in Coaching the Present 'Varsity Crew. the race the men will be as fit to row four hard miles as Courtney can make them. The same feeling of doubt which enshrouds the contest at Poutrhkeensiii is in evidenop nt New Loudon. Both Yale and Harvard have a host of supporters from the ordinarily neutral and unprejudiced party. To many, a victory for the Yale crew seems assured, but others, ('quite as numerous, give the preference to Harvard.

The popular sentiment apparently i lies with the blue. Inasmuch as Yale has sel dom been defeated by a Cambridge eight, and still less frequently with a veteran crew. A I veteran crew Yale undoubtedly has this year, and a big. stalwart crew at that. If it comes to a question of endurance and that is really what a four mile race amounts to.

a heart breaking pull in the last quarter, at least Yale should win. On more than one occasion Yale has beaten Harvard solely on account of superior endurance. This. too. whnn th crimson shell contained the more finished oarsmen.

In 1894, at the close of the race which, by the way, Yale won there was scarcely a man In the Harvard shell able to i hold his head up, while several lost con I Lacrosse Twelve Close Their Season With an Unbroken Record of Victories. 0SG00DE HALL FARES BADLY. Beaten 11 to 3, the Canadians Prove Easy Victims Game Below the Standard. There was a wide difference between yesterday's lacrosse game at the Crescent Athletic Club and that of the Saturday previous. One was hard fought and brilliantly scientific; the other exhibited only loose play and a fore gone result after the first half.

The team of Osgoode Hall. Toronto, the last on Crescent's schedule, did not come up to the popular expectation, and those who went to Bay Ridge In the hope of seeing a duplicate of the Montreal contest, found little to satisfy them. The batch of Canadians which laced the Crescents was disposed of In easy style, 11 goals to 3. Osgoode Hall's team, as made up yesterday, was by far the weakest Dominion aggregation that has been here this season. In justice to Osgoode Hall, though, it is only fair to state that at least four of the most skillful men on the team were forced to remain at home at the last hour, when no time remained to drill substitutes in the vacancies.

An inevitable rosult was the ragged team work, which was at once apparent to every spectator on the Bay Ridge grounds yesterday. If the truth be told, the Crescent twelve did very little better than their opponents during the greater part "of the game. The home team was never forced to exert itself, and chances were taken and missed that, under other circumstances, would have turned out disastrously. The first part of the match was more like a hockey game than a contest at lacrosse. The ball at times was fairly batted about by both sides.

Of concentrated passing there was a dearth, while of general muffing, poor throwing and checking there was altogether too much. After nearly fifteen minutes of loose play, Crescent managed to score. Prior to that, although the ball was almost wholly in the Hall's territory, the home club seemed incapable of tallying. Having once brokeD the Ice, Crescent's goals were more frequent thereafter. Bv tho end of the half, the homo team had three, and in the second it played all around the Canadians and scored more.

Two of tha goals made by Osgoode Hall could readily have been averted had the Crescent defense seen fit to exercise a little extra care. The game was not one for the spectators to enthuse over, and even the caddie boys, who lined tho fence, were silent at times. The original lineup was as follovs: OsK Hall. I. nnox Campbell c.

Garvin It ise Miller Muses De Cassenova Hudses McLane Jewell linbby Wall MiiHun Rose Referee J. yl in Haphazard tactics apparently without aim or object, marked the first few minutes after the face off and the first hit of play that savored of a goal was when Hodge carried the ball up the field to Wall. The latter dodged and an Instant later passed to Mason, but Mason's shot at the net wont low and striking the turf before it. the ball hounded over the strings.

Crescent infused more snap into its game and seldom allowed the rubber to get near the east goal. As a result, the Crescent goal guard had a sinecure for a while. It was Dobby who finally threw a goal for the homo team and the watches placed the successful play at about thirteen minutes from the start. Osgoode Hall twice turned the trend of Crescent's attack away from the goal before the home team tallied for the second time. Once McCouaghie, the visitors' veteran goal keeper, made a brilliant check of Mason's throw and again Wall barely missed the net by an Inch or two.

A swift, clean pass by Jewell raised Crescent's total to 2, while the third goal and the last in the half was the result of inexcusably poor defense by the visitors. Goals followed each other in rapid succession in the second half. the local player, who served the visitors in the first half, retired in favor of Mason, after doing good all around service. Mosi of Crescent's additional points were tallied along easy lines, as the Toronto men grew less capable of sturdy resistance as the match progressed. They were not in as good training as the Crescents and showed it in their play.

Of tho eight goals made by Crescent In the second half, Dobby tallied four, Jewell two and Wall and Rose one each. Dobby made the most sensational play of the half when he dodged directly In Trout of Osgoode's goal, and. keeping the ball on his crosse. darted to the net and nonchalantly dropped the sphere Into It. Baird scored the Canadian's first goal, when the visiting attacking party grew too numerous for Garvin to handle.

Another time the Crescent goal keeper tool; chances that he would not have otherwise and Lennox tallied. Osgoode Hall's third goal was when C. M. Baker's long throw up the field was allowed to go Into Crescent's net. Crescent closed the lacrosse season yesterday without defeat.

There will be no further contest, unless the team accepts the National Athletic Club's Invitation to a return match on July 4th. MARSHALL'S CLEVER GAME. How He Won From Jackson in the Minor Chess Tourney. One of the game. played by Frank J.
