In- I ' etltutlons were represented, Harvard university, Massachusetts' Institute of Technology, University of Pennsylvania and George Washington university. A team had enteredfrom Yale but did cot appear. The question naturally arises, whj Is it that; so little Interest' Is taken among the colleges In this branch of port, and it does! not take long to dla cover the main trouble. It Is a lack of facilities for practice. The students of Yale must depend upon the courtesy of the national truant mjthorlties of New Haven for opportunity to practic on the national guard runs?.'. As this range has been fully occupied by the national guardsmen for some timo past the Yale team was unable to secure pre liminary practice to warrant their en trance in the competition. College BJflemen Discounted. The marksmen of Columbia college which won the Intercollegiate indoor competition last winter,, nave no piace for practice since the Crcedmore range tias Deen closed. consequently tney were also out of the game this year. Cornell Is in the same position since the issue to their cudet battalion of the new army rifle. The use of this arm lias been prohibited on their old -range as being unsafe owing to the increased velocity. Princeton had a good rlflo club and was the winner of the Inter collegiate trophy in 1905. Its first year In the. competitions. They were then using the national guard range at Princeton. This privilege was later withdrawn with the result that the Princeton rifle club went to pieces and thus ended riffle shooting In "Old XaHwau." Another handicap to the colleges and universities in excellence In marksman ship Is the difficulty in procuring arms and ammunition, which cannot be is sued to them Under the law. It Is there fore necessary for tho students to pur chase their own arms and ammunition, which makes rifle ' shooting to them an expensive luxury. it Is 1? '- .-k 4.

The Wakelield match was won by the ,5eorge Washington university team with a score of 725. Five points better than fours. The day of the match was bright and sunny with the tem perature rather high, although this was tempered by fitful gusts of wind across the range from the left. This made holding very difficult, especially at 200 yards. The winning team shot with the Krag rifle, and the University of Penn sylvania team, which was second with a score of CS7, shot with the now Kpringfleld Fltle. Harvard, using - the Krag, came out third with a score of 687. The team from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, which finished last, was unfortunate in having lost two or their best marksmen, who had departed for their homes. They were also handicapped in having the model Krae with the 1301 flat eight. Trrey used Frankford reloaded ammunition. Issued to them by the government. Handsoms Trophy for Riflemen. This match between the colleges was Inaugurated In 1905 by the National Rllle Association of America, which of fered a handsome trophy to be com peted for annually. The contest was , held that, year at Sea Girt, and won by the Princeton team. In 1900 the trophy was captured by the George Washing ton university team. There was no contest for the trophy in 1907. Several of the universities In the west have, within the Inst year, organlae.1 rifle clubs and affiliated with the Na tional Rifle association, so that it Is probable that by another year new clubs will compete In the Intercollegiate match, which may result in the trophy grolngr to the west for the tirst time since it was established. With the national matches at Camp Perry, Ohio, but one month and a half distant, military marksmen throughout the country are dally practicing on the ranges in competition for places on the teams which are entitled to participate In this great military tournament If reports received hero can be taken as a criterion, the scores this year will be in excess of those at previous matches. Flora almost every range the news comes that great numbers have quali fied as marksmen and that the scores are almost perfect. Remarkable Scores Made. One of the most remarkable scores Is that of Captain Stewart A. Wise, ordi nance officer of the Sixth regiment, Massachusetts National Guard, who made 70 consecutive bullseyes at the Bay State range. At 600 yards he scored Bl bullseyes and 10 at 1.000 yards and 9 at ,800 yards, all In succession. His JOth shot at this last range struck, on the ground In front of the target and the miss was laid at the door of "poor ammunition." .Much enthusiasm over rjfle practice is being evidenced In the state of Penn sylvania, the national' guard uuthorlt1ci there placing this feature nlxrve nil other work. Many of the company cap tains have offered trophies and cash priies for excellence in rifle practice this season, with a view of stimulating and keeping up the Interest. Portland Crews Show Up Well in Northern Waters Several Surprises. men had hard luck In the regatta, but It may be said ln their favot that they had only been training a little over three weeks before the contests. The renatta will be held in Seattle next year, because of the A.-Y.-P. fair and Seattle hopes to have a club entered in me races.

In the annual re gatta of the North Pacific Association of Amateur Oarsmen held on Lake Washington this morning and after noon the Vancouver Rowing club won four out of six races of the day Weather and water conditions were ideal. The. first event of the day, the Junior singles, was one of the best contests or tna regatta. Alien oi runuuiu, diii Clair (jf Vancouver and J. Donaldson of the James Hay club of Victoria, were entered in this race, and us none of the men had ever taken part In the annual regattas, all of them seemed to be on an equal footing. At the report of the starter s gun the three athlete took the water together. The Portland man was on the out side of the course, Donaldson hud tho middle, while Sinclair was placed on tho Inside. Donaldson soon took the lend and held it until about half of the course had been passed over by the men. Allen pressed him close, and was only about a leneth and a half behind at this point. Sinclair seemed to he fol lowing the shore line, but was about on even terms with tho Portland man. Donaldson eased up on his stroke and contented himself with keeping his lead. Sinclair redoubled his efforts, however, at the three quarters mile point, and In the hardest kind of a race gained on the Victoria man and won at the finish by leas than half a boat length. hVL'n after the contest was over, the James Bay man thought he was the winner, and was surprised when he learned he had been vanquished. This race was one of the best of the day's sports on the water. H. Sinclair, the winner, is only a bov of 18, and had never sat in a shull before until Trainer Smith of the Vancouver club took him under his wing two months ago. VanoouTer Gets Junior Fours, The next race, the Junior fours, went to tlm Vancouver club, the victors in red and white winning easily from the Portlands by about five lengths. James Bay failed to rinisn arter rowing to within 60 yards of the stake boat. The junior doubles was a classy race, Frank Knott and Alex Poole of the Nel son. B. C, Rowing club, winning the event from the Vancouver nalr, II. Sin clair and O. Simpson, by a length. The James Bay men finished third In this race. This contest was one worth watching, as Sinclair and Simpson raced one of the grittiest" faces of the fore noon. The Nelson crew was ahead un til over a mile of the course had been passed over, when the nervy men from Vancouver started to spurt. Sinclair, the same man who won the tro;ihy In tlie first event, set the strokw durinif the remntnfler of tho course, lie set the iace as high as to the min ute The Nelson crew only managed to wlii by a length.

The senior fours was tlie event of the day and the champions from Port land put up a heartbreaking fight to hold the Buchanan and the challenge cups, and it was anv man's race to within 100 yards of the finish line.

Through most of the performance of "Richard III" last night it was a pleas ant trial of pyrotechnio rhetoric be tween Mr. Colley Cibbcr's bombastic paraphrase of Shakespeare's style and a band of street urchins on Washington street, who had an unlimited supply or cannon crackers. Whenever Cibber gava out and fell back for a brief moment on Shakespeare, the patriots and the firecrackers were readv to take ud the (rauntlet thus carelessly let fall by their allay- and accessory In the" murder of tho bard.

That it worked its hardships, however, none can deny. One distracted lady was Dresent with a Rofle edition, carefully annotated, and she attempted to follovv the words spoken by Mr. Mantell witn the text. Her confusion of mind and body was pitiful to see. Evidently sho had failed to notice the explanation on the corner of the program printed like a benzonate of soda notice on a pure food labeled catsup bottle to the effect that the Cibber perversion was being used. She had taken the misleading word in capitals that headed the pro gram "Shakespeare" literally. When it was all over she wandered out of the theatre in a dazed fashion, climbed onto her trulley car as though walking in her sleep and sank down into a corner exhausted. For the sound of the cannonading within the house was indeed terrific No sooner would Mr. Mantell shout "Off with his head; so much lor Buck Ingam:" than the boys outside would take it up and the four walls would shako with the attack from without. Ai tho memorable words "Hark! the shriU trumpet souds. To horse! Away!

Settlers must lo cate before the suit In equity is filed by the government. In the event that the suit is won by the government, each settler will have possession of 160 acres upon payment of $2.60, as provided un der the original act of congress in mak ing the land grant to the railroad company. Bills In equity in the suit to be brought by the government to recover more than 2,000.000 acres, of land In 18 Oregon counties and which is known as tho Oregon k. California railroad land grant, have been gone over bv -B. P. Townsend and Tracy C. Becker, spe cial assistants to the attorney-general, and are to he put In the hands of the printer some time during the first of tills week. As soon as tiieso bills can be sent to Washington, approved by At torney-General Bonaparte and signed by him, they will be returned to Port land and filed In the United States court at once. Protect Aotnal Settlers. It is expected that these suits against the Oregon & California railroad, of which E. H. Harrlrnan is president and W. W. Cotton of Portland Is secretary, will be filed within the next six week3 or two months at least. It is understood that all persons who actually settle on these lands and make improvements on Hi" acres will he ful ly protected in case the government wins the suit, and will be allowed to remain according to the original pro visions made in the act of congress which granted the railroad the land to bo sold to settlers at $2.50 an acre 30 years ago. These conditions are not generally known, It seems, the public having be come confused last year when there was considerable correspondence re viewed between Senator Mondell ami Attorney-General Bonaparte. Mondell's Idea at the time was to protect persons from being victimized by professional locators. -At that time the attorney general gave his views on the ques tion. This was to the effect that actual seUlers locating upon 160-acre tracts would be allowed to remain, and in case the location was made before the suit was begun by . the government tho land would be theirs upon the payment of $2.50 an acre. Suit Will Be Itongr One. It Is claimed by those who aVi fa miliar with tho situation that the suit against the railroad will probably be In the courts three or four years pending a final decision by the supreme court of the United States. If u person takes tin the land and makes Ids home and Improvements he takes the chance of the government losing the suit. No filings are necessary, it is said, and nil that a person has to do Is to find the tract of ISO acres that he desires, lo cate upon it anil then make nn offer to the Oregon & California officials to pay I them $400 $2.50 an acVe, according to the grant. Thousands of these offers have al ready been made the railroad company, but In only a few Instances have the persons been actual settlers. All told there are only about 60 actual settlers who have taken up quarters on this great amount of land. Twenty of these are In Columbia county and about fticht of them am in T.Ann rnuntv. The others are scattered through the coun-V ties in wnicn tne land is located. Settlement Necessary. Quite a number of suits have been filed in the federal court against the railroad by persons who have become actual settlers. Under the conditions as they now exist no stilts are neces-! sary and in the event that the govern nient wins out the settlers will come into possession of the tract upon which they have located. The suits have been filed by Martin A Scoby Mark O'NeiL and A. W. Lafferty. Portland attorneys. But in securing these tracts it Is es sential that all tracts be settled upon before the government files Its suit In equity against the railroad company. This particular point had been made clear and emphasized by Attorney General Bonaparte. inoee persons wno nave already lo cated nave Duut nouses ana Darns ami even should the government eventually lose the suit they will have had the use of the land all these years.
