The big spring business here marks a
new era in tailoring. As theknowledge
that it is best and cheapest in the end
to have your clothes made to measure
becomes more widely disseminated the
demand increases. A couple of years
ago the amount of busmess I am now

- NEW LONDON, Conn, June 27.—The
great Yale-Harvard university boat race
has been Towed, and for the sixteenth

time in the history of the annual event

Harvard has won, leaving Yale with a
record- of only eleven out of the twenty-
seven contests which have taken place be-
tween the two greet rival institutions of
learning and :sp0rt. I" , '

The day was one of the finest that could
be imagined for the race. The water
showed hardly a ripple. the 'sky was

cloudlmly blue, and a gentle northerly
breeze stirred the warm J one air. Crowds
began to line the water front at an early
hour, and the streets of thin town were
soon deserted, much to the disgust of the
shopkeepers, who had vainly urged the
managers of the race to postpone it until
late in the day. Enormous prices were
demanded and paid for admission to-ob—
servation cars and boats, or to any place
well situated for a view of the race.

Betting in the morning was considera-
bly in favor of Yale, 100 to 75 being offered
in some cases by believers in the Blues.

Harvard Took the Lead.

The course was the usual one of four
miles, from Winthrop point to Gale's
lorry. Harvard took the lead at the start,
and held it by a. fine burst of speed which
at Once aroused wild applause among the
tens of thousands of spectators. The ex-
citement was great, and in the confusion
the steamers which were following the
racers steered wild, and the tug Gypsy
fouled the press boat 'Munnatawket, up-

' setting a. number of the people on board.

but doing no more seriOus damage. The
Munnatawket also had hard luck near the
finish, being obliged to run into the tug
America to avoid collision with the Rhode
Island. N 0 one was hurt, but several pas-
sengers were thrown off their feet ' and all
were more or less frightened. .
. . ~ A One Sided Contest. _

' Harvard steadily increased their lead.
and the excitement and enthusiasm grew
correspondingly. : All that was doubtful
after the first mile was how many lengths
the reds would be able to put between
themselves and Yale before the finish. It
was a one sided contest from the start,
much to the astonishment of most judges
of rowing, the opinion having been almost
universal that Yale would win, or at the
least that the race would be very close.

At the finish the din was deafening, the
throats of the thousands of sightseers on
the seventy-five boats and the thirty-five

,railroad cars emitting yells of joy or dis-

appointment, end scores of whistles belch-
ing forth a noisier applause.
There was some delay in announcing the

official time, which was 21 minutes, 23 see- '

onds for Harvard; 21 minutes, 07 seconds
for Yale. Harvard was about eleven
lengths ahead at the finish. Harvard had
somewhat the advantage in having won

the choice of position and selecting the

east side of the course.
_ , The Start.
The start was made at 11:40. Harvard

caught the water first, with a. stroke of

ful Stroke,’but it did not seem tobe ef-
fective as against the quickerand easier
movement of the reds. When 150 yards
from the start Harvard’s lead was a
length. Here a slight swell was encoum
tered, which caused both crews to splash a
good deal, but on» settling down they gave
a pleasing exhibition 01 first class work. _

_ The Harvards did better than they were

ever seen to do in practice, and crept away.
from Yale at every stroke. On ' the other

hand the Yale crew seemed to have lost

they did not work inexact harmony. . The

During the next half mile Harvard in-

l - - . '

' creased their lead, but the crowding of the
steamers spoiled the work of both crews.
Harvard let the stroke down to 36. at the
mile, Yale sticking to 85. Harvard was
three lengths ahead. Time—Harvard 5:01,
Yale 5:11.

At the mile and a half flag Harvard was
pulling 86 and Yale 35 strokes. Time-
Harvard 7:40, Yale 7:55, Harvard continu-
ing to gain on her opponent.

' Vl'on by Eleven Lengths.

- Harvard steadily increased the lead dur-
ing the next half, and at the end of the
second mile had put fully six boat. lengths
between it and Yale. From this point the
race became a procession. When a little
ways beyond the navy yard Harvard was
compelled to make a wide swerve, a. tug-
boat standing across its course. Yale was
not helped materially by this incident, and
Harvard, go: tin g back into its original

‘ course, steadily widened the space between

. it and Yale. _ ' ‘

The time of both crews at the two» mile
point was: Harvard, 10:19; Yale, 10:41.
Harvard was then pulling 38 to‘the min-
ute and Yale 85.~ ‘

At. 2% miles Harvard was nine lengths
ahead. Harvard Continued its rapid
stroke, and at the 3% milegfiag had in»
creamed their lead to ten lengths.

The inst half mile was rowed ingallant
style. Both crows repeatedly spurted, but
despite the desperate efforts of Yale to cut
dowu the leml, Harvard’s she-11 continued
to forge ahead at a rapid rate, and as the
winning .crcw passed the finish they were
pulling forty strokes to the minute, with
a lead of fully eleven lengths. Harvard
at once rowed to its quarters, and Yale
paddled up to Gale’s Ferry.

This race is the first one that has been
won by Harvard since 1885.

Though Harvard has won a majority of
the races since they were inaugurated,
Yale is ahead since 1876, when the annual
contests were renewed, after having been
omitted for some years. _

Outof the sixteen events since that date
Yale has wOn nine and Harvard seven.
Yale also has the best time record—20:10,
made in 1888, under unusually favorable
conditions of wind and tide. -

crews:

NEW YORK, June 27.—-—Dr. John I. North-
rup, who was terribly burned in an acci-
dent at Columbia college, died at the Pres-

byterian hospital at 3 o’clock Friday morni- .

ing. At first it was not thought that his
injuries were necessarily fatal, but after
his arrival at the hospital the doctors made
a careful examination and found that he
was burned llme head to foot. Then they
decided that be‘could live but a short time;
He was in great pain. Finally, at 3o’clock,
the end came. .

Dr. Northrup was connected with the
zoological department of the college.
Thursday afternoon, in company with two
janitors, he went into an apartment in
the basement of the School of Mines
building to get a, supply of alcohol. A
large quantity of it was stored there. No
one knows how the accident happened.
Those in the rooms abOVe were startled by
cries, and then Dr. Northrup rushed up
stairs all covered with flames. He was
crying piteously for aid.

An attendant threw a bucket of water
over him, and soon the flames were extin-
guished. In the meantime other persons
had gone below, and had found that the
two janitors, Tighe and Simpson, too, were
burned. They were cared for. Then it
was ascertained that a barrel of alcohol
had caught fire. Dr. Northrup was taken
to the Presbyterian hospital, and the other
two men to Bellevue.

Dr. Northrup was a. young man of great
promise. He entered Columbia college in
1880. and was graduated in 1884. He was

soon made a tutor in zoology. He was a
. married man and lived in Yonkers.
