The prO ! and the umpire's boats took lp their positions when the hour for the raC3 I I npproacfiotl and they were shorty followed I by the crews. I Oxford won the toss and chose the Surrey I aide at the rIver. The scone on the Thames was as animated 8S usual , and until the course was cleared thin river was alive with craft of alt kinds. The boat houses of the two crews were beT Ilegd by their admirers early In the day and both Oxford and Cambridge were loudly cheered as they launch theIr boats. The betting . just previous to the start. was un- changed from that of last night , when the odds were 9 to 2 on Oxford , The boats started at 4:0S : p. m" . and OxIn ford soon had a lead of half I length. At Claspers boathouse Oxford hell her lead : but at Craven Cottage , less than tbree- quarters of a mile from the start Oxford 'a only a quarter of a length ahead . and at Walltns the Ilarl blue hall not Increased this lead. At Hammersmih bridge. I little over one and three-quarter miles from the start , Oxford had Increased the lead to half a length , and was wIdening the gap. At , Thornycroft. about three miles from the I start. Oxford was I length and I quarter : ahead and at the Devonshire meadows the I dark blue was leading by two lengths.

I An Interesting point which has arisen In connection wit the Oxford and Cambridge boat race and one which will Interest college - lego men In all countries Is the question of ' the cost of sending a crew to Putncy from : ' the great Englsh unIverItes , A repre- sontatve of the AssocIate press durIng the week asked this question of Rev. E. W _ ' Sherwood , master of Magalen college : . honorary treasury or the Oxford Boat club , a member of the Oxford clubs of 183 and 1874 , and one of those admirable divine who do not find preaching a bar against an ardent love of honest sport. He saId : "The crew for Pltney costs about { 100. The i revenue or the Oxford UnIversIty Doat club : comes from three sourceL The principl I one Is life membership tees from new men ; Every man who Inten,11 participating In any : college races at Oxford Is obliged to join the Oxford University Boat club and become a life member by paying l3 10s.

There Is moro 01 less of I plot to the \ iece. I Introduces her : S MIle. Electra , n circus rider ; who , having trouble wIth her manager , resigns. The manager seeks 10 ( ; farcb her to keep her contract and ' attompta coitct to have her arrested. She goes to two law- y ers for advice and these gentlemen of the bs are fascinated by the queen of the saw- dust arena and become her devoted follow- e ra. But the lawyers hav obstacles In the way or theIr love makIng with the fair Electra In the persons at their wl.es , When Electra discovers the presence of these bet- ter halves she sets abut for revenge on the two erring lawyers. In the last act she suceeds In obtaIning It by getting them to assume two characters In the circus. much to theIr humiliation and the rIdIcule of theIr ssociates "Faust" Is announced for Tuesday and Wednesday evening next at Boyd's theater The text of Mr. Griffith's version of Gothe's majestic drama clings closer to the great poet's masterwork than that of any version now extant and Mr Griffith makes Mephlsto a spirit "wbo unceasingly denies. " He makes him an Intellectual devIl , whose busl- I ness Is to present and represent all that Is i opposite to Rood.

"ORrden tpot" Plan for Stan Ont of U'crk " Ill Its Trtod. At the last meeting of the late charity bal comieo It was decided that five . of the gentlemen who had worked so bard for the success of the enterprIse be made members of the executIve committee of tbe Associated Charities . In order to see that the $700 raise was properly expended. This was : done ! and the executIve bed of the old association was Increased by f.t. One of the frst thing ! Father McDevitt did was to suggest a plan to aid the workingmen - men at South Omaha In another way than doling out coal and kour. le spoke of the Detroit "garden spot" scheme , and , It was well received. AU that was needed was the help of a few men or wealth who would back the plant The matter was talked over about town , and as / result the following named gentlemen have met and decided to g ahead wIth the work : \V' S. icing , Dr. Ensr , Father McDevitt and Re. Irving Johnson , I "Two facts are very o."lent. " said one cf ' the committee yesterday. "One Is that very many men In South Omaha find II impossible , to earn enough at present In the packing houses or elsewhere to properlY support their families. The other Is that there Is far more than enough god lanll wIthin the limits at Sruth Omaha to produce vegetables enough for the entire population of the city . But the land Is neglected In behalf of laboring men with families It Is Il0poscd to organize I , a commission of citizens of South Omaha who I I . will secure good land , hire 1 capable sUllerln- tendent have the land plowed , harrowed and prepared for planting , stake It < t into por- tons , assign these "orlons to families that will promise to plant and care for them and I finally be entitled to the products. In cases I where families are not able to buy seed the I commission will supply them wih seed , for which they will afterward pay I they are I able. The commissIon will reserve a good L Portion whereupon families In want of 1m- mediate assistance can work and receive I payment either In cash or provisions 1 Is I hoped by this plal to provide all mel who I wi work with an opportunity to do 10.
