Br All Means. — We understood that Mr. Ross Wvnans 
proposes taking his clipper sloop Arrow to Europe next sum 
mer and matching her against the English cutters. Nothin? 
could be more interesting or instructive. Two thines occur 
to us i in i this connection. In the first place Mr. Wvnans will 
find difficulty in entering public races on account of English 
conservatism prohibiting the use of a centre-board, so that 
he may have to seek a senes of private matches with such 
owners as are progressive enough to be willing to give the 
American sloop a fair trial on her merits. Second Air 
hard to arrange the time allowance’quesl 
tion, the Thames Rule holding out such unjust advantage to 
the deep cutters that Englishmen will not be over-ready to 
adopt a fairer system for the accommodation of a visitor. 
®“e th measurement may afford a solution. Finally, 
we hope Mr . Wynans will not rest content with one or a few 
nfffn’o^h. W ' 1118 y flcht under all conditions and as

OAR AND PADDLE. 
The Event of the Year.— Harvard has won I This was 
almost a foregone conclusion, for the new and green men of 
Yale could never have stood much of a chance against the old 
stagers of Cambridge. Yale was simply overpowered, and the 
best she could do was to make a brave fight and do justice 
to the indefatigable zeal and hard work of their famous coach 
Mr. R. J. Cook, who has certainly done more than any other 
man to rid America of the chop stroke and battery style of 
pulling, and to replace an old-time, worn-out dip, with the 
steady swing of old England. The course has been reverted 
to in these columns on previous occasions, and our predictions 
that the Thames would be found eminently fitted for the 
great race, and New London well able to entertain the 
thousands of visitors from all parts of the country without 
the infamous extortion practiced at other places, have been 
fully verified. The New London course may now be definitely 
accepted as the regular Putney-Mortlake of America, and ere 
long Winthrop’s Point, the Navy Yard and Bartlett Point 
will become as historical in the annals of boating as the Crab 
Tree, Soap Works or Barnes Bridge on the namesake of New 
London’s River, near Old London. 
Of the race itself little is to bo said. With the start it 
practically ended. Yale went ahead the first few moments, 
but in an instant Harvard came out in the lead, and there re- 
mained. At the half mile she led Yale by two lengths, Cam- 
bridge pulling thirty-three and New Haven thirty-two. At 
the mile the blue had spun out its lead to four lengths, at two 
miles to six, and finally Harvard crossed the line a twelve- 
lengths wdnner, in 20m. 44 7-4s.; Yale’s time, 21m. 29s. The 
crews were as under :

Borden town the same evening. On the 26th they pulled to 
New Brunswick and thence to New York in company with a 
crew sent out to meet them by the Alcyon Club of Brooklyn. 
Canada Oarsmen— Toronto, June 28.— Bay of Quinte 
Rowing Club, Belleville, will hold a regatta the first week in 
August. The Leander Rowing Club, of Hamilton, held their 
four-oared club races on Burlington Bay, on Saturday, 23d 
June. Tbe races were rowed in beats and created consider- 
able interest ; the first and Jast heats were well contested 
lhe.7. A. McKenzie crew were the favorites, and crossed 
the lino in the final heat amid great cheering. Steamboats 
and railroads ran excursions, and it was a general gala day 
The day’s sport concluded with a tub race, and was of great 
amusement. They hold regatta in August Hanlon’s 
achievement at the oar lias awakened great interest in rowing 
in Toronto, and unless one takes a puU on the bay, they can- 
not realize the extent of the epidemic. Every night the bay 
is covered with craft of all kinds, and to get clear water one 
has to go well out into the bay, and here be is in danger of 
being run down by the numerous racing skills. It is a tavor- 
able sign that so many of the young athletic men are paying 
so much attention to this style of rowing, and gives hopes 
that when Hanlon lays aside the oar, some one will be found 
among them to maintain the credit of tbe bay. Just previous 
to Hanlon’s going to Pittsburg he successfully conducted a 
skiff regatta at the Island. 8ince then the ferry-boat owners 
have purchased three medals— one gold, one silver aud one 
bronze— to be offered for competion among amateurs. The 
gold medal becomes the property of the person winning it 
twice. The race will take pluce on the afternoon of Satur- 
day, June 29, at Hanlon's Point. Distance, two miles, half 
a mile and turn repeated. Skills are to be eighteen feet and 
under ; entrance fee, nominal. The entries will be numerous 
as most of tbe available skiffs have been engaged.

only lost the third joint of one little finger on bis left band, 
and that the accident will not interfere with his rowing. If 
he should accept Courtney’s latest challenge the latter will 
leave for Australia from England, where he first goes to pull 
Higgins in September.
