TBI COLLEGE REGATTA.
Cornell Hoping to Send the
Champion Crews.
HER MEN OF RENOWN.
How the Oarsmen Look and
What They Promise.
Ithaca, N. Y., June 18, ISTfi.
Wben Captain Ostrom and bis associates of
the Cornell crew left Saratoga last summer they
had already settled one perplexing matter?that
la, tho better aize of men to maito good oarsmen.
In that race the Ithacans felt sure of an excellent
position, if they weie not tt>e winners, but nmsn
Ing flftb in the contost and as;ern of plucky win
lama was a bitter disappointment. Looking for
the reason of their laliure it was determined?
flrst, that tne crew was made up of men too big
and too tall; or, in plainer language, tho shell
tarried "too muoh beef;" and second, cnelr stroko
was too alow and lacked tne all-essential element
of being able to send the boat along witn any
jpeed. Tnese were nappy conclusions for Cornell,
but have been of service to her. So when tke
?indents began again to gather last autumn on
University Hill Hnd the question or this year's
crew was dlaous*ed?for discussed it was among
tlie earlier matters requiring collejre attention?
thero was mucn enthusiasm among tuc rugged
boys. Better than enthusiasm was tne imme
#iate offer 01 greenbacks, as well as strong backs
?mows 01 war not to bo reiused. Each was gladly
accepted, and the gymnasium of this honored in
Btitnrion once more bccame the scene of honest
workers, striving to fit themselves with muscle
and strength sufficient to pave tne way to victory
lor the carnellan and white of their Alma Mater
?n Lake Saratoga. In this preliminary business
lood-nalured Ostrom, of course, was the leading
ipirtt. He folt that the responsibility was great;
bnt, going into tne strugglo with all his heart and
the accumulated experiences of regatta work yet
(till iresn in his mind, there was nothing left un
done to deserve success.
SELECTING THE WINNERS.
It was a matter of regret that but two of last
year's crew wera found available for this. Four
were compelled to rotlro, and of all that remained
Dt the once thought invinclb.e aix were King una
Ostrom. Still, these two men comprised abont
everything that was worth saving from that de
moralized crew, and in them was the nucleus or a
food six, as they are representative patterns of
strength, sameness ana aoMvity. Pulling at the
weights, some walking and a dasn of running,
now and then, put the selected men into shape
for t he closer lines of discipline when tho ice dis
appeared from ea.tuga Lake in the spring. Then
Cornell thraw open the door of its unpretentious
boati.ou&e, and with a little pardonable exultation
Introduced her men, to whom ahe now intrusts,
Its "faith triumphant o'er its feara," to tne pre
liminary practice of tne barge. How steadily the
crew haa since kept to the promise of this work
it ?lone can telL The rough material wanted
moulding, and time, paticnce and a master hand
were required to do the hammering into shape.
Tnese three requisites tne University is sure
tbe men possess. If toe conclusion haa been
based on sound reasoning Cornell will be in bet
ter health and spirits at the wind-up or the com*
Ing race man she was last year. Her friends, too,
think that the wheel should twist their way at
thla time, and not leave all the prises among her
competitors. *
ON CAYCGA LAKE.
From toe 2$th of April the oarge and pair-oared
?ystem of training continued till a lortnight since,
when their new paper sneli was delivered and
all other pulling was suspended. These men I
found yesterday at their training quarters
on Untveralty Hill, by tbe kindness of
Mr. E. M. Bsrtiett. clrs* '78. and rliht
well and hearty were they looking. Their
quarters, botn in the matter oi location and
convenience, are infinitely auuerior to those
oi 1874. and in this particular as well us others
Cornell has taken a step toward improvement.
Jt never was nor never wili t?e of au> service to
a crew to Mde Itself uwav In dense woods during
training, bnt that is just what Cornell dm last
year with her men. LigSt, ch?erini mirrouud
ings, the dash and bustle ol life are wanted by
those who are passing through this crucial test of
preparation, sunshine, not clouds; roou nature,
not ii oritieness. are demand 'fl if you wantyoui

Daniel Otis liarto will sit in No. 2 and endeavor

Charles Cyrus King, No. 6, cornea next, and Is
worthy ol a moment's consideration. There Is
seli-rellance wruien all over his face, and ambi
tion is also mere to be observed. King pulied
stroke last year, as he old In the Springfield boat,
and, therefore, has had much experience tn racing
shells. It nas been oi service to bim, as his oar
bears the mark of oonstant improvement. At
times he nas beiu in stroke's seat in the present
shell, but 1 believe it Is pretty nearly settled that
(Jstrom will occupy that important place and
mike King Dim "right bower," a position he will
llil with the utmost credit. There is something
about tne exceedingly fine-grained and enduring
look winch King nas mat would make a stranger
drop a passing remark; ?ind he is Just as stead
met as no looks. Were 1 at liberty to tell you
wnai this student, who win graduare this year,
has passed through, and what manual labor ne
has daily performed to supply tiinaseif with the
means or continuing his studies, you would b?
surprised and give hiin the credit of boing a self
denying seeker alter knowledge; but suffice it to
say. lor tliree hours each day of nls college life
King has worked at the carpenter's bencn in or
der 10 accomplish what he had in view. Ana now
mat inn end is near at hand it is to be hoped that
tho world nas a pleasant welcome for hitu. He Is
the oldest In the shell, being twenty-seven; stands
6 leet 10 Inches, and weigh* 166 pounds.
John Nelson Ostrom, stroke and captain, is an
old acquaintance, ami a pleasmi one at that, lie
has been the counsellor oi Cornell's crew* for
three years past, sitting bow last summer,
and now feets as II ii? would line to oe a
winner, lust to retire gracefully from the
college boating business. Ostrom ia ol a sturdy
organization and baa lasting, staying powers.
Napoieon never chalked out any of ins great cam
paigns with more precision in detail than has tills
stroke oar the course to be pursued in this year's
Cornell's shell. from first to ia*:, and ev?n to tho
end oi the race, ho will be ihelr chief and head,
and a good one ne will undouoreuly Drove. In
the mind or Ostrom the rugged ileid ol Austerlitz
or Hie inorny ridge of Waterloo were a* noinmg
to what will be tne cold sneei of Saratoga's water
tnls summer, llow he would like tne carnelian
ana white to ho swan* to the breeze as the win
ner! Then three years of hard labor would have
seemed as nothing. Mr. Ostrom Is trom East Ran

j Tidal Wave aud Comet will have a bard struggle
for tlie sonoouer prize, aud possibly the Qypsle,

J ber owner expects increased speed. '1 lie Sadie,

The Sadie in very iast in rough watei, and the

many f?st boats that it would be hara to pic* a
winner, but trie Schemer or Maggie J. ought to be

tance. This distance, the 150 and 200 yards
ranges were flred over by halt-past two o'clock,
at wnlch time the troops fell out of line and went
to rations. The clouds now began to clear away,

EELLOW MEN.
If people will Insist on going to Plymouth lec
ture room at such an unreasonably early hour, it
will soon become necessary to carry a lunch and
go in the middle of the alternoon in order to se
cure a scat. Mr. Beectier was in good spirits last
night, Joining in all the hymns with letvor. lie
began his romarks by reading?"When Peter,
turning about and seeing tin disciples
following, said, Lord, what shall these
men do 7 And Jesus said, If I tvlll
that they tarry till I come, what is
thi?t to tliee? follow thou me." both Peter and
John were passionate by nature, but they were or
different passions. John was sensitive. lie had
such a sense of diffldence and delicacy that he did
not oven uAe his own name In Ills writings. Bui
Peter was one of Uioao precipitate, positive men,
with an Intermeddling familiarity. He did'not
hesitate to rebuke his .Master; he did not hesitate
to give his advice beforo it was asued?well j
meaning and Kind, but lie plunged in without
the sligntest sense of manners, aud seemed quite
astonished when people were disturbed by Mils
meudilng, so here lie savs, "Well Lord, what i
snail this man do?" What business was uof his?
Well, he had an eve to aifairs, and you see a great i
many such people, with lly-iike natures, ?ettle I
down on any dish without the slightest intent of '
doing harm; he never Knows his compativ, is not j
agreeable, ani if you give him a hint or a slap lie !
comes right back a/aiu. There are inauy people
oi this kind, wno mean well, wno always spean
aud always propose to do and tt-il other people
what they ought to do. Taere is
nothi.no so meddling as zeal
unless it be affection or arrogance or four or
live other qualities. It tne people love one au.
other they seem to think that love is a charter
of intermeddling. Now there Is a duty of love,
of care and sonn times of rebuke. Have you not
seen mothers always worrying about their chil
dren, it would seem sirauge u we were :o say
love had no right to care and question, bat we sea
liow it causes anxiety in tuose who love us.
it was not wrong oi Peter to be interested in
John, Israel had 'jeen sout up. All the I

Catholics are anxious aoout what shall become of
the Protestants a great many good foiks in tueni,
Dut they are out of tne line oi the covenant, and
wu.it is to become of them ? And cite new school
is anxious aoout the old scnool, and the old
school is full of anxiety about the new scuool,
wno are leaving the old lunomarus.
Everybody snould wish the saving truth of the
Gospel to be preached an t state the truth as it is
given to you. lint may not a minister talk witu
