Ten Eyck, although only about 18 years old, is the rowing won- der of this decade. He has shown his superiority over many of the crack oarsmen in this country with ridiculous ease. - Ten Eyck comes from the oldest row- ing family in this country. His father, James E. Ten Eyck, was famous in his day, and so was his grandfather, but the youngster promises to put the best performances of each on the shelf. I-l'e represented the VVa’chusetts Boat club of Worcester in the rowing cham- pionships at Saratoga last year and surprised every one by winning the in- termediate single sculling event, lower- ing the course record from 10m. 001/;5. to 9m. 59s. In September of last year he won the senior single sculls at the New England Amateur Rowing association. He was then matched to meet Joe Whitehead of Cambridge, Mass, who held the cham- pionship of America for single sculls. The race took place on Oct. 1 at Wor— cester, and the boy wonder defeated the champion over a mile and a half course with a turn with the greatest ease. Fate of :1 Missing Prospector.

Arrests to ‘.' eyler. were issued before the other warrants had been served. The arrests were due to the excess of zeal of the military Judge.

The engi- neer of the locomotive was killed and his fireman was wounded; also a ser- geant and two other persons. The mili- tary commander of the place at once issued an order that every resident should place a lighted lamp in front of his house, and that these lamps should be kept burning every night in order to prevent the insurgents entering' the town under cover of darkness. |Spanish Federalists For Autonomy.
