E'lid make Rood time at that. As it was,
although the race was one of the most
severe ever rowed, there was not a sign
of distress in any boat. It was a minute
after half past 5 when the six 'varsity
crews lined up at the start, there being
a slight delay because of the breaking
away of Cornell's stake boa*. The
referee save the usual warnings and at
the pistol the start was practically uni
form, Cornell having the only advantage;
because of the absence of a stake boat she
had to make a flying start. It was evi

rowed thai the pace cut out by Cornell

•was too much for the light Syracuse
crew and the second crew from Pennsyl
vania, for they began to drop behind into
a second division. The half-mile showed
no change between the first three boats,
while Georgetown had dropped about a
length behind them. Columbia was lead
ing at this point. At the mile Cornell,
with pretty rowing and with no apparent
raising of her stroke, had taken the lead
away from Columbia and had about hair
a length advantge. Wisconsin had tried
in vain to steal second pice from Colum
bia and from this point, although close
to Columbia's stern, never managed to
draw up on her.
CORNELL. HOLDS THE LEAD.
From the mile and half post to the
three mile point at the bridge it was one
of the most remarkable feats of endur
ance and skill ever witnessed. Cornell,
rowing a low stroke to the minute, kept
the nose of her shell just a scant half
length in front of Columbia, who. wi.h
her fast stroke and a clean running boat,
i made. orate efforts to reach her rival.
Wisconsin, a half length behind Columbia,
made equally great efforts, but they
seem, d to be of no avail and Georgetown
held on to the trio of pacemakers with
a tenacity that won for her the plaudits
.of the spectators. Those who watched
the terrific pace being oont:nued, look, d
at any moment to see one of the four
leaders go to pieces, but they swept down
under the bridge without changing posi
tions. Here it was that Columbia made

In l^.ss than rive seconds had evened up
with Cornell, and in another five had
shoved its nose ten feet to the front.
From the observation train went up a
mighty roar, "Columbia wins," but there
wa.s still a mile of water to cover and
Cornell had an unknown res rye. The
Ithaca boat had been pushed forward at
the lowest stroke rowed by any of the
crews and when the Columbia boat rush
ed to fne front Cornel] raised its stroke
slightly, and taking the load again passed
toward the finish line, increasing the lead
until when the line was crossed they had
a length and a quarter advantage over
Columbia. Wisconsin had found herself
unable to get any more Bpeed out of the
last mile and finished two lengths be
hind Columbia. Georgetown had hu.-ig on
like a young bulldog and finished only
a scant two lengths behind the Wlspons n
crew. Syracuse and Pennsylvania were
nisi anced.
THE POUR-OARS.
The four-oarei race for the Davidson-
Kennedy challenge trophy was call.d
rir.st. the comoeting crews being Co
lumbia, Pennsylvania and Cornell ar
ranged in this order from the west shore
toward the middle of the river. At the
report Of the referee's pistol, Pennsyl
vania's four caught the water first, but
th.y u-irr quickly followo 1 by Cornell and
Columbia. Hearing tin; quarter mill
mark, Pennsylvania increased th leid to
a quarter lenqpth and there was open wa
ter between Columbia and Cornell When
the. three crews approached the bridge,
Cornell took a swerve to the outwa.d
of her course, but the bowman quickly
regained his former position and there
was a brave flight for the lead. At the
one mile mark Pennsylvania .■till retainr*
the lead by a half length and Columbia
was half a length above Cornell. Cornel,
was slowly descreasing Columbia's lead
and all three orowa were holdng their
cours* in a beautiful manner. Nearing
the last quarter, Cornell spurted and
again decreased Pennsylvania's had,
while Columbia dTOpped to th- rear The
Ithacans seemed to have plenty of re
serve power left and made another suprt
when near the finish, closing the gap be
tween the two Shells and taking the lead
over Pennsylvania, winning the race by
a length and a half. Columbia was not
expected to make much of a showing, but
by her heroic struggle she finished third,
only a length and a half behind Penn
sylvania. Official time:
Cornell, 11:39 8-5.
Pennsylvania, 11:45 2-5.
Columbia, 11:51 3-5.
THE FRESHMAN RACE.
The freshman race between crews rep
resenting Cornell, Pennsylvania, Colum
bia and Syracuse for tho Stewards' cup,
presented by Francis S. Bangs, was a
beautiful struggle from start to finish
The crews got aw a y at 1:19:50, and all
but Syracuse seemed to catch the water
at the same tlmo. After the first ten
strokes Cornell and Pennsylvania took a
slight lead over the other crews, and at
the end of the first quarter Cornell was
leading by a length, with Pennsylvania
second and Columbia and Syracuse al
most on a line for third place. Approach
ing the bridgra at the mile mark Cornell
was still retaining ita lead, with Penn
sylvania second, open water between the
Pennsylvania nnd Columbia sh<-ll and
Syracuse fourth by a Hength. All four
crews were rowing from S3 to 34 strokes
to the minute. When the crews went
under the bridge Cornell had increased
her lead a quarter of a length over the
Pennsylvania boat and Columbia was but
a length behind the Pennsylvania boat,
while Syracuse had dropped back, putting
her two lengths to the bad.
Entering the last half miles Pennsyl
vania's oarsmen hit up their stroke and
made a desperate effort to overcome
Cornell's lead, and they were partly suc
cessful. Pennsylvania's spurt caused two
lengths of open water to show between
ehr shell and the Columbia boat, while
Syracuse followed almost In the wash
of the Pennsylvania crew. Nearing the
last quarter Cornell held her lead by
a. length, with Pennsylvania second, Co
lumbia third and Syracuse a very bad
fourth. Stroke Pepper, of th« Pennsyl
vania crew, again lifted tho stroke to 34
and then to 36 to try to overcome Cor
nell's lead and the gap was gradually
closed up, the Pennsylvania freshies
capturing the lead from the Ithacans.
Corntl] began splashing badly at this
time, but it was discovered that Torney
at No. 2 had broken his oarlock. The
Cornell boat was unable after that to
regain its lead and Pennsylvania won
by a length, Columbia was third by three
lengths and Syracuse fourth by four and
fne-half lengths. Cußcial time:
Pennsylvania, 10:20 1-5
Cornell, 10.23.
Columbia, 10:36 1-5.
Syracuse, 10:14.

WASHINGTON", July 2.—Reports re
ceived at the weather bureau in this city
from throughout the entire area affected
by the Intense heat show a continuation
of very high temperatures, save in a few
favored localities, where moderation of
the heat resulted from thunder storms or
other local atmospheric disturbances. No
relief of a substantial character is In
eight. The rainfall reports show that
there has been precipitation throughout
the affected area varying from less than
a hundredth of an inch in many places
to almost an inch. Generally speaking,
the thunder storms which have come have
been what Is known as "dry storms," so
that very little rain has accompanied
them.
The Indications for the next twenty
four hours for a large portion of the
heated area point to cloudy weather, with
showers, which, however, because of
their local character, wJll bring only par.
tial relief from the heat. The predic
tions of the officials here Is that the
temperatures for tho next forty-eight
hours will show a fall of probably four
or five degree, but that they will still
climb above the 90-degree mark in most
places. The Atlantic coast will get some
relief from a West Indian disturbance,
which is now moving northward.
Phoenix, Ariz., had the highest tem
perature today, the thermometer regis
tering IOC, while at Philadelphia it was
again 102; at Atlantic City, 96; Boston,
94; at Chicago, where over half an inch
of rain fell, 86; Cincinnati, 32; Davenport,
lowa, 92; Indianapolis, 94; Kansas City,

94; New Orleans, 92; New York, 98; Pitts
bure, 94; St. Louis, 96; Salt Lake, 92;
Yicksburg, 94.
At Washington the maximum was 100,
hut during a gust In the afternoon the
thermometer fell fifteen degrees in as
many minutes. Numerous prostrations
and deaths were reported from the heat,
and in many places Industrial plants were
forced to suspend operations.
The weather bureau tonight issued the
following:
The hot wave, which has prevailed dur
ing the past ten or twelve days ovar
New England, the Middle Atlantic states,
the lake region, the Ohio valley and foe
Central West and Northwest, continued
during Tuesday, although temporary re
lief was afforded during the afternoon
by numerous thunder storms in New
England and the middle Atlantic states,
and at Chicago and St. Louis.
As yet this warm wave has not equaied
in duration those of ISBI and 1900. ex
cept in New York city, where, during
the present hot wave, the maximum tem
peratures have ranged from 90 to 98 dur
ing the past seven days, exceeding tho
greatest previous record by two day 3.
Neither have the extreme temperatures
of the present wave yet exceeded the
prvlous highest record, although they
very nearly equaled them.
The eastward movement of another low
pressure area in the extreme West ren
ders it improbable that there will tyo
any long continued relief from the high
temperatures over districts not affected,
but it now is probable they reach tho
extreme Atlantic states on account of
the Influence of a moderate West Indies
disturbance, which appears to be moving
northwestward over the lesser Antille3.

THE MAGNIFICEINT WOMK
CORNER STONE OF ST. MARYS
"And now. In this Jubilee year 1901,
fifty years from the day when Bishop
Cretin for the first time blessed his lit
tle flock In his cabin cathedral, there
are, in what Is barely more than the
region then covered by the diocese of
St. Paul, six episcopal sees, one of them
vested with metropolitan dignity, 6iK)
priests, a Catholic population of 400,0,)0,
and, In fullest proportion, churches and
convents, colleges and schools, asylums
and hospitals, commissioned and equipped
to spread through city, town and ham
let, over the whole land, the strength
p.nd sweetness of Christian truth and of
Christian eharlty. Spirit of sainted Cre
tin, be among us, we pray thee, this
morning, viewing with us thy vast spir
itual demesne, once an empty waste, now
blossoming bounteously beneath the
wide-spreading, soul-protecting branches
of the mighty tree, the mustard seed
of which thine own apostolic hands did
plant in Minnesota soil."
With the clear blue sky for a canopy,
the swaying trees for decoration and
the soft green grass for a carpet, stand
ing before a beautifully constructed altar
draiied in the papal colors, white and
yellow, the Most Reverend John Ireland,
archbishop of the diocese of St. Paul, de
livered these impressive words in tribute
to Joseph Cretin, the first Catholic bishop
of this diocese, whose arrival in St. Paul
fifty years ago is now being celebrated.
FULLY 3,000 ATTEND.
Fully 3,000 people were seated on the
campus at St. Paul's seminary when the
pontifical high mass was celebrated yes
terday morning. Richly robed priests
and bishops marched In pairs from the
college building to the outdoor altar. Tt
was an Impressive spectacle. As the pro
cession came in sight of the sanctuary
the strains of the inspiring hymn, "Praiso
Ye the Father," floated softly toward
them. Amidst the eublinio silence that
prevailed the rich harmony seemed car
ried upward and upward until it reached
divine auditors, who seeomed measurably
near this beautiful gTove, far removed
from the turbulent, perspiring city, where
thankful hearts had gather to rejoice,
and praise God for the wonderful growth
that had been given the church In this
country so lately uncivilized. Not fur
distant was the Mississippi, a silent wit
ness and contributor to God"s work.
Seated in the sanctuary were the church
oignltarles. In their midst was the ven
erable Alexander Ramsey, the first ter
ritorial governor. Behind them were the
sisters of the Visitation of St. Joseph.
ARCHBISHOP'S ELOQUENT SERMON.
At the close of the mass Archbishop
Trcland delivered a beautiful sermon,
"Fifty Years of Catholicity In the North
-1 west," In which he reviewed the coming
of Cretin, his untiring work and after
his death the rapid strides made by the
church which he had so humbly nur
tured.
Dinner was served the clergy In the
dining halls of St. Paul's and St. Thom
as. At the close the presentation of
three massive volumes containing a com
plete history of the diocese from its in
ception to the present day was made
to the seminary library, Father O'Neill,
of St. Michael's church, this city, mak
ing the presentation address. This book
Is called the "Jubilee Memorial Volume,"
and was compiled by a committee of
priests, of which Father O'Neill waa
chairman. The other members were Fa
thers Cahlll, secretary; Fathers T. J.
Gibbons, Solnce and Oglin. It was a
mammoth work, and beside a complete
history of each parish, which is given In
chronological order, there are mounted
photographs of 260 priests and 1,800 build
ings. The three volumes were published
ait a cost of $1,000.

Arthur drew the polo, Lena Blrchwood
second, lici.se Mcliicz third, Dr Bhorb
fourth, Maud B fifth, Leo Lee sixth, and
Annie Rlpley seventh.
On the third score the horses were

THE DERBY RACE.
The 2:34 trotting Derby, three-mile dash,
was saved for the last event, and it wua
by far the most Interesting of the day, as
each one of the three contestants led a
portion of the time, and It was only
won right at the wire, and in a terrillo
drive at that. It was surprising to sea
such a finish at the end of a fa 1 three
mile heat, and serves to show that only
horses of a superior quality can do such
a feat. Three horses only re ponded
when the bell rang, Ecstacy, who drew
the pole; Random and Philip Lockbeart,
St. Paul's candidate, Nushka, having fail
ed to materialize. The- horses, after a
preliminary score, were Bent off on ev*n
terms, and Random Jumped into th«
lead and maintained It for a mile and
three quarters, when Philip I»ckheart,
who had been trailing, swung Into the
lead and kept It until the la.st quarter
was reached, when the game mare Ec
stacy challenged him, and they came neck
and neck down the stretch, until within
fifty feet of the wire, when Lockheart
left his feet and the mare shoved nor
nose under the wire amid the cheers of
the multitude. Random was six lengths
In the rear.. The time of the dash was
as follows: One mile, 2:26, two miles,
4:53; three miles, 7:17%. The summary:
