CONTEST BEST IN YEARS
Pennsylvania Sets Pace In First
Three Miles at Poughkeepsie, but
Does Not Last Wisconsin
Brings Up Rear.
POUGHKEEPSIE. X. T.. June 27.
Swinging their sweeps with powerful
strokes which carried their slender
shell through the water-at all but rec
ord pace, the Syracuse varsity crew
won the big four-mile race today for
university eight-oared crews. They
headed Columbia by less than one
third of a length and Cornell by a bare
length at the finish line, after-one of
the most hotly contested and most in
teresting regattas In the eleven years
of collegiate racing on the Hudson
course. Incidentally, Syracuse took
from Cornell the trophy which Is the
token of victory in this race the
varsity challenge cup, presented in.
1898 by Dr. Lewis L. Sea nan, Cornell,
to be held by the winner 'for one year.
Pennsylvania Soon Fails.
The crew from Syracuse won by tha
power behind their blade? and by su
perior watermanship. Columbia and"
Cornell rowed well throughout the
contest and pressed the winners hard
in the last mile. Pennsylvania's eight
made the pace for nearly three miles
and then went to pieces, finishing six
lengths behind Cornell.
Wisconsin -was reckoned as a con
tender until the three-mile mark was
passed at Poughkeepsie bridge, when
J. W. Wllse, Xo. 2, collapsed and put
the Western crew out of the contest.
He soon recovered and the Wisconsin
men rowed bravely on, even when
Wilse fell over on his oare again. He
again revived sufficiently to swing an
oar as the Wiscbnsin crew swept over
the finish line more than a minute
behind Syracuse. -
Ovation for Winners.
The winner was greeted by the roar
of many voices, the shrieks of whistles
and sirene and the reports of explod
ing bombs, set off from the bridge.
Syracuse won also and for the second
successive time the race for university
four-oared shells for the Kennedy chal
lenge trophy the first race of the day
leading the Pennsylvania crew over the
line by nearly two lengths and covering
the distance of two miles in 10 minutes,
62 4-6 seconds.
Columbia crossed the line third, three
lengths behind Pennsylvania, which had
fouled the Columbia boat in the last half
mile of the contest. The judges disquali
fied Pennsylvania and awarded Columbia
place honors.
Cornell Loses by Fluke. '
Syracuse was the actual winner, but
many felt that but for a mishap Cornell
would have won this race. There are no
coxswains in this race, and the shells
are steered by the bow oar. Cornell
went wide of her course and ran her
boat's sharp prow plump Into the mark
ing buoy at the one-and-a-quarter-mile
mark, and the craft stuck there until
help arrived When the collision occurred
she had a lead of four lengths and was
arawing rapidly away from ner com
petitors.
Cornell carried off the two-mile race
for freshmen eisjht-oared shells for the
steward's rup in handy fashion, going
over the course in 9 minutes. 29 3-a sec
ands. three lengths of open water ahead
jf Syracuse. Columbia was third, Wis
consin fourth and Pennsylvania fifth.
Harry Nelson, the crack pitcher of the
Alameda State League club, has signed
a contract and will join the club today.
Xelson belonged to Mobile, having been
drafted from Tacoma at the end of
last season, but a trade has been ar
ranged by which Mobile takes Pitcher
Killian, the southpaw, for its claim on
Xelson.

BOTH CONFIDENT OF VICTORY
Mc-Karland and Welsh to Decide
Lightweight Championship.
LOS ANGELES, June 27. "If you're
confident way down in your heart of
seating the other fellow, the battle's more
ihan half won," says Jim Jeffries, who.
f anyone should be able to get close to
ihe facts, ought to.be the one. So, if
Jeff has spoken the truth, there will be
two winners' in his ring at Vernon on
the afternoon of July Fourth, when
'"reddi Welsh and Packy McFarland
meet to decide what practically amounts
to the lightweight championship of the
world. Both boys are so sure that they
will win that neither admits any pos
sibility of defeat, and the result should
be a determined battle.
The more the McFarlandVWelsli scrap
is thought of, the classier it appears. The
stockyard wonder has gone through more
than 40 battles without tasting defeat,
and out of his 50 meetings with other
boys, Welsh got the short end of the
purse on but a single instance. And
the verdict in that instance is a matter
of discussion between Welsh and Mc
Farland. "I should have won because of a foul
Packy handed me," says the English
man. "I have won because of my merits."
asserts Packy, and there the matter
stands.
McFarland says Welsh will be easy
over the longer 25 rounds route, but
the way Packy is going about his training
does not denote anything that backs up
the assertion. The Chicago boy has
located his camp at Jack Doyle's South
Side Club, close to the arena in Vernon,
and with a full force of partners is
already at it early and late getting
into shape. Packy is a little heavy at
present, but says that a few miles on
the road w-ill soon reduce his poundage
to the proper figure.
.One of McFarland's stunts is to play
handball, and the local amateurs are
out at Doyle's every afternoon giving
him an" argument. Packy is no won
der at the game, but at the same time
he manages to keep along- with the
string, and win his share of contests.
Freddie Welsh has made a hit at
Venice of America, Abbot Kinney's
famous city on the shores of the Pa
cific. His quiet manner and clever
work In the ring attract a big crowd
to the Amphitheater every day, and
the beach residents intend to string
the bank roll on him against Packy.
The advance sale already indicates
a house which will total at least
15,000. Xo seats are being delivered,
but the batch of orders already on the
list serves to show the general interest
in one ot the grandest cards ever
'staged by a fight club.

August Belmont's Colt Defeats High
Class Field of Three-Year-Olds
in Near Record Time.
SHEEPSHEAD BAY, June 27. Be
fore a crowd of 15.000 persons, August
Belmont'c Fair Play, carrying top
weight. 126 pounds, won the $25,000
Coney Island Jockey Club stakes at
Sheepshead Bay today, defeating a
high-class field of three-year-olds.
Fair Play was admirably ridden by
Xotter. The boy allowed the field to
race away In front, and at the turn
to the stretch he called on the Belmont
horse and won. Hessian was second,
with King James third. The time of
2:31 1-5 for one and . half miles, equals
the track record made by Stalwart In
1904, and Is less than a second slower
than the record time for the distance,
made by Goodrich at Chicago in 1898.
The race was robbed of its main in
terest by Colin and Celc not starting.
The two colts are under a veterinarian's
treatment, and it was upon his advice
that Mr. Keene did not send them to
the post for the rich event. Of seven
carded to start, two were withdrawn,
the Whitney entry, Stamina and Royal
Tourist, leaving five to face vhe starter.
Given Good Start.
They were sent away to a good start,
Angelus going to make the pace, fol
lowed by Dorante and Hessian. King
James and Fair Play alternated in last
and next to last places. Angelus
opened up a two-length gap around the
paddeck turn, while Dorante was
about a length and a half before Hes
sian. In the run down the back stretch An
gelus still led. At the far turn Do
rante took the lead, followed by Hes
sian and Fair Play. In the stretch Not
ter brought Fair Play up outside of
Dorrnte. but the Belmont colt, under a
hard drive, managed . to win by a
length. Hessian was also a length and
a half before King James.
Race for Two-Year-Olds.
The result of the great trial $25,000
stakes chowed that John E. Madden
had the best twoyear-olds of the year.
His two colts ran one, two. Sir Martin
winning, with Fayette second, and Hel
met third. The ride that J. Lee put up
on the Madden Colt, Sir Martin, was
considered by many horsemen the best
ride seen here in years. The Madden
entry curried top weight. 129 pounds.
Bobbib went out to make the early run
ning and took a lead of half a length
over Fayette, with Helmet third. Sir
Martin was fourth. Bobbib continued
to show the way to the elbow of the
main track, where Fayette took com
mand, with Helmet at her side.
The race at this point looked to be
between the first two, but Lee, on Sir
Martin, seeing that his stablemate was
in trouble, put the colt under a hard
drive. Gradually he made up the lost
ground and at the sixteenth he was on
even terms with Fayette and Helmet.
In the next few strides he was a length
to the good and flashed, under the wire
a winner by two lengths, with Fayette
a head before Helmet.
Rejects Big Offer.
After the finish of the great trial
stake P. J. Rainey offered Mr. Madden
$40,000 for Fayette, but Mr. Madden
promptly turned the offer down.

SULPHUR KILLS SQUIRRELS
Weston Farmer Finds Effective
Means .of Exterminating Pests.
WESTON, Or., June 27. (Special.)
Edward Anderson, living on the foot
hills near Weston, has originated a
cheap and successful method of ex
terminating squirrels, which have
caused much damage in his locality.
Locating a populous squirrel colony, he
goes out with an equipment of news
paper scraps, sulphur and matches. At
every hole he places a slip of paper and
a teaspoonful of sulphur. Setting this
afire he covers the blaze - with weeds
and dirt. The result is that the squir
rels are all smothered In their sub
terranean houses. Not one Is ever seen
to burrow out after the method is thor
oughly applied.
In exploring a squirrel village a day
or so after Its wholesale asphyxia
tion, Mr. Anderson saw only two little
pests scampering about, while formerly
several dozen were in sight at once.
Evidently these two were visitors from
an adjoining colony not yet fumigated.
Neighbors are taking up Mr. Anderson's
plan, which promisee te permanently
solve the squirrel trouble here and
elsewhere. It is economical, simple and
effective. One pound of sulphur worth
15 cents will kill about 200 squirrels.
