Create Quay County.
Harrisbuho, June 28. Governor Hast
ings last night approved tho religious
garb bill, which prohibits tho wearing of

gcnerul tho power of appointment of mcr
cantllo appraisers in Philadelphia, to
gether with eleven other bills.
In support of his disapproval of tho bill
to croato Quay county out of portions of
Luzorno and Schuylkill counties tho gov
ernor says that after a careful considera
tion of the measure ho has reached tho
conclusion that it is without merit, and
that there seoma to bo no necessity for it.
Ho bolloves it would be onorous and op
pressive to tho taxpayers of tho district
contained within tho limits of tho pro
posed now county, and that tho tax pay
ing population of tho district Is not suf
ficient to warrant tho oxpouso of oroctlng
public buildings and paying tho cost of
tho administration of county affairs. Ho
adds that tho act is applicable to a slnglo
locality, and its constitutionality is moro
than doubtful.

important of all, tho men havo undergone
a system in training nltogethor dlfforont
from that which has been in voguo at
Hurvard for somo yoars, and It roqulred
constant attention and faithful applica
tion from evory member of tho crow to bo-
oomo thoroughly accustomed to the now
conditions.
For the first time in years tho crew was
coached by a slnglr man, Mr. Clifford
Watpon, whoso control of tho men was

HARVARD'S DECLINATION.
It is Itecolvori with Itecret by Athletes
of Oxford and Cambridge.
London, Juno 28. Tho roply of Har
vard university's committee on athlotlo
sports to tho Invitation of Oxford and
Cambridge universities to tako part in an
international athlotlo contest in the'
Unitod States next autumn in conjunc
tion with Yalo university, hns been re
ceived. It is a courteous declination, tho
roply saying In purt:
"Wo could hardly accept your Invita
tion without assuming, in appearance at
least, that Harvard and Yalo occupy the
prominont position among American uni
versities which is held among English
univorsitlos by Oxford and Cambridge.
As there is no foundation in fact for such
a protonsion, wo think it hotter for uni
vorsity nthlotlcs In this country, as well
as for university interests in gonornl, that
we should not lend any countonanco to It,
and that wo should, furthcrmoro, avoid
all scmblauco of a spirit of oxcluslvouoss
towards our sister universities."
Tho declination has caused much ro
grct at Oxford and Cambridge. Tho En
glishman had anticipated tho visit with
tho greatest possible- Interest and on
thuslasm, and the athletes had built up
many hopes on tho result of their visit.
Tho roasons given by Harvard for declin
ing tho Invitation aro rogarded as senti
mental rather than roal.
