In n very quiet way the Driving Park ns.

at Union driving park during the past week
The principal work lnw boon on the tracl
which lias been greatly improved. The Insid
has been thrown out , so that the track is nm
In as good condition as ever , or will bo who
the work Is completed tonight. This Is on
of the best tracks In the country , and stand
very highly both among trotting and runnln
horsemen all over the United States. Dui
Ing the past IIvo years it has had but lltti
care ami was saillv in need of repairs. It wa
badly worn near the pole , and of late the bcs
track has been fully twelve Tcct from the fcnc
making a long lull'1. The rains have als
wnxhi'd It until the surface was rather sand ;
for fast tlmo , but all this ban now bcci
changed , and the track Is better thai
ever before. It has always been regardei
as the best training track In th
country , and has never been what might b
termed a slow track , as ycarafter year horse
have lowered their records hero and madi
llmu that they were unable to equal on mi ;
other track In cither eastern or western clr
units.
The changes now being made are owing t <
the fact that the leading horsemen of Onialii
have become liitercjlol in the park , and tin
majority of them now have horses In trainlnj.
there , and It may bo stated right hero .tha
never , with the possible exceptions of two 01
three big racing meetings , has there been s
larger or inoro valuable lot of Myers at tin
park than at the present time. Messrs
Jirowii , Mr.Sluino and Paxtou of Omaha have
each a valuable string stabled there , to su\
nothing of the dozens owned In this city am

The water is now all out of the C'lcn avc

and repairing the walls is in progress. As
the last of the water drained away yesterday
morning downs of men and bojs engaged It ;
n reckless rough-and-tumblo to capture the
fish that had bsoii forced up to the rcsorvoii
from tlio mains from the river. Ono fish
over two feet long was taken out and bushels -
els of smaller ones and crawllsh. The bottom
tom of the reservoir shows where the craw
llsh have been at work undermining the
bricks , which have been washed out over
quite a strip. The greater part of the floor
and the walls generally arc In good condition
and all repairs will bo completed by tonight.
There nro several wagon loads of mud to be
removed , but. not as much as was expected
In view of the fact that the reservoir hud not
been cleaned for nearly two years. Here
after it will bo cleaned twieo ovcry year.
All work will bo completed tomoivow and the
water will bo turned in again.

PiTT. iifito , Pa. , June 27.This was the las
day of the International Sunday school con
ventlon. JacolM of Chicago road the roper
of the executive committee , recommcndln'
that the second world's and seventh trlcnnln
International Sunday school conventions b <
hold together. The report was adopted am'
It won decided to hold both conventions In St
Louis In 1SIM , the tlmo to bo set later.
At the afternoon session Miss Wlllard
president of the Women's Christian TemKsr |
mice union , a poke in support of the proposl
tion to set apart four Sundays of each yea
to be devoted to teaching temporunco in Sab
bath schools , the International committee U
furnish appropriate lessons. After n length :
discussion It was amended by B. F. Jones
chairman of the International executive com
mlttco , and adopted. It says , In part , : In
setting a course of lessons for the year tin
lesson committee found In the course of UK
llrst quarter a suitable tcmpcranci
lessen and therefore they made tin
lesson for the thirteenth Sunday a missionary
lesson. In another quarter for the same yeai
they found In the regular course n suitable
missionary lesson. Therefore for tlio thlr
teonth Sunday of that quarter they hav <
riven temperance lo'sons. For the two re
maining quarters of that year they have se
lected a temperance lesson and a missionary
lesson , leaving It optional with the schools tc
use either. The committee cannot say In ad
vance Just what lessons will occur In anj
year , but think It possible the selection foi
other years may be like the selection for 18W ,
The lesson committee for.Greut Britain urgot
that the commltto continue U ) have optional
temperance lessons , stating that if only tern-
pcrauco lessons many schools would not use
them , but select others , and the plan would
bo Impaired. The executive committee there
fore recommends that the convention approve
the action of the lesson commltteo , as Indi
cated In the lessons for ISltt. and further
recommend to publishers of lesson helps
throughout the United States and Canada
to make notes upon temperance lessons as
full as upon ether lessons , and also to
specially emphasize the subject of temper
ance in all lessons In the regular course
where it can bo suitably done.
Aftcrsover.il Interesting addresses on the
work of the convention Until adjournment

Nr.w LONDON , Juno 27. As usual , great
throngs of people congregated today to see
the annualfour-inllo , straiglmwny clght-oarcd
race between the Yale and Harvard crews.
Yale won in 21:20 : ; Harvard 21-IO. : Tills is
Yale's llfth successive victory and the record
now stands in the four-mile races : Yale 0 ,
Harvard 0. For three miles the , race was one
of the finest struggles ever seen on the Thames
course. At no time In that distance was
either crew able to got a decisive lead , mid
during that time Harvard bad n slight lead
twice. Yalo. however , by grand spurting
and staying qualities quickly recovered first
position by a small margin. After passing
the third milo Hag Harvard's stroke scorned
to lese its effectiveness , which ,
with a perceptible roll to their
shell and three or four slight swerves by the
'
cockswain caused the Harvard boat to'drop
slowly but surely astern. Yule finished
strong , keeping up their long , steady swing
with almost faultless precision , crossing tlio
line and resting on their oars without the
slightest sign of distress , while in the Har
vard boat at least three men clearly showed
the effects of their determined efforts.
The Columbia-Harvard freshman race was
roared-ia the dark and proved a rather un
satisfactory affair. The race was two miles ,
and the referee gave it to Columbia bv half a
'
length. Time , 10:51. : In the last ha'lf mile ,
it is stated , the steamer ran across the bow
of the Harvard boat so near as to interfere
with their work.

A Hag should not only wave on every school
house , but on every church. The ex-presi
dent made a stirring address on the subject :
"Obligations of the Government to Old Sol
diers. " The pledge made to soldiers ,
ho said , for his services wcro Just
us distinct and unmistakable as wcro
uver made to the bondholder. All
parties were agreed that they should bo vecom-
perlsed , and that great statesmen whom
Providence selected had repeated and reiter
ated the .same great truth in one of those
wonderful messages ho read to the Ameri
can people. In conclusion Mr. Hayes said :
"Wo want no charity , but lustico and our
. "
rights. _
