THE SCULLING CHAMPIONSHIP.

H OW THE TRAINING WENT.

*The greatest imaginable interest was taken kjn the proceedings of the two scullers Mho <y ere training on the Nepean, for the cham pionship which was decided in Beach's favour last Saturday. Hundreds of peopl e daily journeyed out to watch them at work, .and on Saturdays and Sundays they 'held ft regular levee._ The "inevitable" photographer was in_ attendance the whole of the last week, and many 'times both Beach and Hanlan had to Eubmitto have their pictures taken, so they should be very plentiful over the other side just at present. * The champion kept very well all through and took matters in his usual cool way. In replying to a question as to whether he was always able to sleep on the eve of an important event, he said, "I never knew what it was to have a bad jiiirht before a race. I always sleep soundly and" generally have a nap during the day of the race. I remember in one of the lirst events I rowed in Sydney, they had to come and wake me up to get into my boat and goto the post." There is no doubt that his wonderful calm, even temperament has had a great deal to do with his success ; in fact, the late Dr. Fortescue, who was a great admirer of the Dapto man, used to j&y: "Beach is not a man—he is a cold blooded animal." Speaking of Hanlan, one critic said : — •'Hanlan is rapidly gaining friends, his 'faultier style being the theme of universal admiration, whilst some perhaps too cap tions critics take exception to the way in which Beach uses his right scull. To use a technical term, they say he ' knifes ' —that ia, instead of striking the water with the blade of tho scull fairly at right angles, he cuts it with the blade at an angle, just as one would slice oil' a piece of cheese with a inife. Of course, tho effect of this is a loss of power, and also the throwing of more Weight on the other hand, so that the boat would not run true, ' but a very slight difference in the fittings or the fact of one scull not being as well greased as the other might account for this. Still, there is no doubt the Canadian's style 8 the far more popular of the two. Hanlan Beems very confident, though there is no •blow on his part as to what he will do. He has never been so well looked after in Ms life; in fact, he is inclined to grumble at the strict watch and ward Brett and Perkins keep over him. One thing is cer tain, that the Canadian will come to the post-as fit as he ever was in his life, if not jn better trim than he has been before." All sorts of absurd rumours were afloat eboufc the race being arranged, and that Hanlan would not be allowed to win. The champion, however, laughed at the whole afiair, and said that if anyone ■wanted to square the race that person had better call on him, when he would get a fitting re ception. "He will probably be in bed for the next month should he venture to come." The train arrangements were very good as Settled on by the Railway Department. It was proposed to run 10 trains to Nepean on tho day of the sculling championship race, viz., five second-class, accommodating 4,500 persons, and iive first-class, carrying capacity 3,000, and to charge 3s and 5s Becondand first-class respectively ; and to induce'the bulk of the second-class traffic to go early, 2s return was to bo charged for certain trains to be specified. In addition to these services there was to be a special first-class train, with reserved scats booked and numbered, at Bs, accommodating 360

persons. Michael Rush, the ex-rhampion oarsman, was at the training quarters of the two men for some time. In an interview re the Beach-Hanlan race he said he was of opinion thatHatolan would row agreater race than was generally anticipated, from the fact that he wastakingless " Krug" and paying more at tention to his trainer's instructions than on the previous occasion; also, that Beach having suspended rowing operations for some time, must naturally, at his time of life, begin to feel still". " With a line day," he said, " Hanlan must be very close at the finish.;"
