Real Sportsmanship.

The dispatches from Cambridge indi—
Ollie that Harvard’s action on the chal—
lenge from Oxford and Cambridge will
be of a nature to place her at once in
the leadership in Sportsmanlike feeling
among the American colleges.

Much regret was felt here that the
English Colleges had seen fit to ignore
tthntcrcollcgiate Athletic Association,
and in spite of the fact that the Amer-
ican challenge was intended to bring
about a meeting of the university ath-
letes of America and Great Britain,
without limitation, directed their own
attention to a joint meeting Of a' much
more limited character. Nothing
should be said which would in any man—
ner indicate a desire to hamper the de-
cision of Harvard and Yale on the sub-
stituted challenge.

find if Harvard had decided to per-
mil: the failure of the Intercollegiate
socialinn’s challenge to end the mat-

A;
Afi\k

nobody could have murmured for

or.

s. unspent. Indeed, there were very

man} reasons why such a decision

‘xi'ol‘rld have been natural and proper.
All the more, then, is the unselfish inti-
millibn that Harvard prefers to consult
her highestisensecf fair play and pat-
riotism and decline the challenge be-
cause it ignores other colleges, is an

. encouragement to those who have been
hoping for a relief from-the unceasing
quarrels over college-athletics.

It now becomes of lesser consequence
in what form a meeting is ultimately
brought about between English and
American college athletes. The im-
pgrtant point is that an exemplc of un-
salfishnesfihas been set for American

colleges to follow. For years these
colleges have had nothing but a selfish
and contentious example before them;
the outlook has at last cleared up. It
is open now for every college in the
country to imitate Harvard’s generosity
andin some form to return it.

The Harlem Ship Canal.

 

According to the geographies, maps
and histories, the city of New York is
situated on Manhattan Island, but
Manhattan Island hitherto has been an
island on paper rather than an island
in fact. Spuyten Duyvil crgek, which
separates the city from the main land
on the north, was only naVIgable for
geese, ducks, snappers and small row-
boats until last week, when a. fleet of
light draught vessels passed through
from the Hudson to Long Island Sound
as a part of the ceremonial of the Open-
ing of the Harlem Ship Canal.

[The new ship canal, which is to save
ilic light craft plying between the Hud-
son and the Sound along detour around
the Battery, is nine feet- in depth at
low tide and is to be dredged to a total
depth of eighteen feet if the present
plans are carried to completion. It
adds one ansfa half miles to the availa-
ble water front of upper New York and
has b :61) dredged at a total cost of
532,530,000, the money having been ap-
propriatci by Congress and the work
done under the supervision Of the War
Department. It will be chiefly useful
in allowing the light coasting craft of
the Hudson and the Sound, which carry
fish, oysters, garden truck ahd lumber,
to reach by a short route a new centre
of distribution for upper New York,

When it has been dredged to its full

contemplated depth, the canal will be—
come an important addition to the water
front of New York, and its successful
opening to lighter-aft means, of course.
that the agitation for its completion will
be .nccssantuntil the dredges have ele-
vat-ed the last scow load Of mud. The les-
son to the other Atlantic coast cities
furnished by these festivities and
what they celebrated, is that of the
necessity of pushing for more ship can-
aldacilities. There should certainly he
says the Philadelphia Times, a
ship canal between Philadelphia and
New YOrk. The enterprise is entirely
feasible llflil the value of such a. water-
' way would be many times greater than
_ thatof the Harlem Canal.

Church Members Beaten.

The county commissioners yesterday
decided to grant a license to F. H.
Bradley for the Monopole saloon in
Bridgeport. The saloon is near the
Methodist church in that city and vig-
orous Objection was made to the grant-
ing of the license by Rev. Dr. Pullman
and others of the church. The case
will probably go to the Superior court
on appeal.

 

To Retire from Business.

Mrs. LulahiC-rossman, who for some
years past has conducted a grocery
store at 104. Harbor avenue, will retire
from business July 1st, and remove to

health.

Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court in conference at
New Haven, on Saturday, handed down
several decisions among the number
being that of Selleck Y. St. John vs.
the Estate of Charles E. Dunn. of New
Canaan, an action for the interpreta-
tion of the will of Charles E. Dunn. It
was held that the fourth section of the

L. Dann and his “family” are advised
to be paid. Opinion by Judge Bald-
win, all concurring. '

 

Hls Chances Good.

Herman Brundage was in receipt of a
letter yesterday from Dr. Clark of St.
Vincent’s Hospital, New York, in which
he states that Mr. Brundage’s uncle,
Fletcher Worden, is getting along
nicely and the chances for his recovery
are good. It will be remembered that
about tWO weeks ago Mr. Worden re-
ceived some terrible injuries by the
dropping of an elevator car at the
Cousin’s shoe manufactory where he
was employed. - ‘

Bosonham has applied for a license to
sell intoxicants at 106 Harbor avenue,
and placed his adv. in the South Nor-
walk News. There will probably be a
long list of remonstrants against the
granting of the license, as the location
is not deemed to be a suitable one.
The number given is wrong. Accord-
ing to the directory it should be 104
and it is the store at present occupied
by Mrs. Lulah A. Crossman as a grocery
store. Rosenham’s name does not ap-
pear in the Norwalk directory.

JUMPED lulu DOCK.’

“Joe” Kéatlng a Complete Suc-
cess as a Practical Joker.

 

His Wlfe an lntercsted Witness.

This noon, Joseph Keating, in
close pursuit by his wife, might have
been seen rushing up Water street.
He dodged into the Hill 8; Hubbell
company lumber yard, and throwing
his hat in the air, shouted “ Here goes
nobody,” and jumped off the pier.

It was some five or more minutes be-
fore his head was seen bobbing up on»
the top of the water, and it was re-
ported that a man had attempted en’-
cide. In the meantime 3 etc wd had
gathered. .

Mrs, Keating stood complacently in
the vicinity waiting for the coming
ashore of her husband, either dead or
alive. But she finally gave up in des-
pair and left the seene.

A few moments after she had gone
‘..‘Joe” came ashore and to say the least
he present-eds. ludicrous sight, as he
stood on the walk with anxious eye, the
water dripping from his garments and
forming little rivuleti on the pavement.

Later he meandered down home with
a happy smile on his face and a look
that said plainly enough “for once I
got the best of her.”

“Joe” is wellliked by all who know
him, but when “in his cups” is pound-
ed, so it is said, by his wife, who makes
it very unpleasant for him.

It was a family jar in which for once
the man Of the house, asserted his
rights by taking water.

Mrs. Keating is credited with having
given her husband a severe drubbing,-
one night last week. on Water street,
which for some lesson or other he did
not resent. —

His friends speak of him as one of
the best natured men alive, and say
that the fiasco this noon was av exem-
plification Of his disposition to play
practical jokes even though his wife be
the victim.

At the meeting of the Directors of
the Fairfield County National Bank,
held yesterday afternoon, it was voted
to declare a semi-annual dividend of
three per cent, thus setting the pace for
ourother Norwalk National Bank’s to
follow. The fact that this or any other
localmbank finds itself in condition to
declare any dividend at all in these de-
pressed business conditions, speaks well
for the safe and careful management of
its affairs. All hail, solid and venerable
Fairfield County. May its prosperity
never be less, and may it ever continue
to supply the town with a New York
City Directory.

President Dole of Hawaii “’ill Exercise,
Executive Clemency July 4.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 25.——The latest
advices from Honolulu say: The changes
brought about through the downfall of
the monarchy and the establishment of
the provisional government, followed by
the formation of the Hawaiian republic,
are beginning to be felt, understood and
All classes of inhabitants
tealizethat the present government has
some to stay. The policy of the Dole ad-

PRESIDENT DOLE.

ministration has been one of reconclllw
slon, so much so that the radical Wing of
the party has been far from pleased in -
many, instances.

Further evidence of this reconciliation
will be made manifest on July 4, the first
anniversary of the establishment of the
present form of government. The senti-
ment of the better classes is and has been
all along in favor of granting clemency to
a large number of the ignorant Hawaiians
who took part in the January rebellion,
and it is the intention of President Dole
to exercise that power on July 4, when
pardons will be granted to over 100 Ha.-
Waiians. .

Besides these a. problem which has long
vexed the governing powers is to be set at
rest by discharging ex—Qucaniliuokalani,
from custody. The decision regarding the
ex-qucen’s pardon is being carefully guard-
ed, and nothing will be known of it by
the public until the Official act has been
sanctioned by the president. Closc con-
finement has brought about many changes
in the former ruler of the islands, and she
is in many respects a different personage.

Under the conditions of her release the
ex-quccn may return to Washington place
to reside, or anywhere she may see fit, in
peace and full enjoyment of all rights so
long as she shall refrain from intrigue or
interference with the recognized govern-
ment.
