At half past 10 o'clock, last night, a youDg man, giving his name as Jake Ferris, called at the Central Station and surrendered himself. Me stated that while passing the corner of Rampart and alia streets, at half paH 8 o'clock, a yonng man named Jake titarke began enrsing and abusing him.

lie resented this, wTien Starke drew a large bladed penknife and assaulted him. lie then drew a revolver and hred four shots at Starke, and, he says, wounded him in the forehead. He then lied, but was followed by four or five of Starke's com iii ions. He tired one shot in the gutter arid then concealed the weapon and proceeded to the Central Station, where he surrendered himself. Starke, he stated, proceeded to the drug store at the corner of Girod and Kanipart streets, and from thence to his residence No.

Scarcity of food in the province of Andalusia, in Spain, has become so great tnat it has been determined to employ the money derived from the sale of the communal lands in worka of public utility, whicn will enable the thousands of laborers out of work to receive wages. In the neighboring province of Valencia the farmers have formed a league with the intention of keeping back all their produce until they can command better prices.

Several farmers who have attempted to break awav from this agreement have been maltreated by the others and the sense of insecurity is so great that it has been found necessary to reinforce the rural police of the province. Further north, in Catalonia, and even in the Balearic Isles, the agitation caused by the severe measure taken to enforce the payment ox certain taxes still continues. A physician calls attention to the fact that if tobacco smoke be instantly ejected from the mouth and throat before descending into the chest and be made to pass through a cambric handkerchief drawn tightly across the open lips, a permanent deep yellow stain, corresponding in size and shape to the opening between the lips, and having numerous spots of a darker hne pervading it. will be left on the handkerchief; but that the prolonged puff from the chest after inhalation from a cigarette fails, nnder similar circumstances, to produce any but a scarcely perceptible and speedily evanescent mark: What in the latter case becomes of the substance which stains? This physician thinks it remains in the lungs, and he therefore condemns the common manner of smo king cigarettes as dangerous. a.

THE SECOND DAY Of the Stat) Aawuw Kewtaji AaeeelaUea Becatta Haaaferw aa Haaeei Umrrr OaT Ike IaUvfeaa Prlaee, tee Heee the Barge at ace, and the Kellaee the Fear Oare4 Shell Race, A large number of people visited West End yesterday evening to attend the second day's races of the annual regatta of the Louisiana State Amateur Rowing A aWOf! inViPTit The narrow embankment lying between tne canal and the lake was thronged with spectators and the galleries of the St. John, Riverside and We6t End Rowing Clubs were weighted down with those eager to see the sport. The Riverside gallery, lately erected, was taken possession of in a shameful manner. It was a wonder that the hundreds who insisted in getting where there was no room for tbein did not meet with some accident.

As it was. a portion of the gallery railing was broken down and many were frightened a good deal. The waters of the lake, of an nnpoetic green, too sluggish to rise high in graceful, undulating waves, and still not peaceful enough to remain quiet, formed what boatmen call heavy sea, rising an inch or so and then sinking. A light breeze was blowing oft shore and the evening was a cool one. The lake was studded with small craft, from the un romantic and clnmHy scow to the white inged yachts skimming over the water like, birds, their bows dashing up the pray as they cut through the lazy billows.

There was no tug to follow the boats and the judges and timers were compelled to watch the races from a yacht placed at their disposal and the cupola of the West End's boat house, the crows Wing often out of sight and the turning stake being almost invisible. The first race was ior four oared barges, the Hopes, Riversides and Perseverance Clubs entering crews. The Riversides withdrew, leaving the race to be contested by the following Hope Club Boat Ed. S. Levy.

James Pendergrast, No. John SpelLman, Nj. A. Swanson, No. M.

Powers, stroke John Delaney, coxswain. Perseverance Club Boat Mascot. E. C. ZeigJf No.

When Mr. Walsh, the starter, shouted "Go!" both crews got away together. There is nothing fairy like about the barge, it being the heaviest race bo.it made. Muscle and "length of are required by the barge pulleree pec tally and the two crews lacked neither. The Perseverance crew figured yesterday for the first gotten up expressly for the occasion.

They made a plucky tight, but the trained bargemen of the Hopes could not be beaten by newcomers. The Hopes pulled a straight course and a regular stroke, and soon got to the front. They turned the mile stake in 7:30, and made the return mile at a much elower pace, passing under the string in 17:41. The senior single scull race brought out four brawny oursmen to fight for the championship medal. These were as follows Eclipse Club Boat Louisa Peters E.

V. Morgan. Riverside Clnb Boat Rosa Lee L. J. Jones.

Perseverance Clnb Frank J. Mum ford. Neptune Clnb Nick Turck. Mum ford has held the championship for several years, and as many await the time when New Orleans shall produce a knight of the oar who will snatch the bays from his brow, single scull matches in which he was engaged are always watched witn interest. At the starting signal Morgan jumped away in front, pulling a splendid stroke and going at a pace which astonished the spectators.

Turck ktpt close to him Mniuford has learned a trick or two during his aquatic career, and made for shallow and quiet water nearest the shore. Jones, on the contrary, was away on the outside. Some actually thought that Morgan would deleat the redoubtable champion, bnt be fairly tlew through the water, and just as the boats assumed the shape of small specks in the eyes of the reporters, he had got on a line with Morgan. Mum ford turned the stake drat witb Morgan some distance behind. Turck drew out after going about two hundred yards, and Jones came closer in shore and gave np making any strenuous etlort to win.

Mamford had things hisown way coming back and won by a number of lengths, Morgan stopping peveral times after he saw no chance of leading, and was assured of second place. An accident happened to the watch by which the time was kept, and after calculation of time lost in repair, the time of the race was given out as being 14:30. The great race of the event was for the four oared shells. There has been a rivalry of several years' standing between the Eclipse and Hope crews. Last year the Eclipse crew got a new paper shell from the North which, instead of being very fast, was quite the reverse, and the Hopes obtained the victory.

This year they had one built in the city by Ed. Boesch, who employed wood in its construction, and they were confident of distinguishing themselves. The Riversides came in to break up the rivalry between the other two by the novel method of defeating them both, but the best laid plans of mice and oarsmen gang aft agley. The following were the crews JJope Club Boa J. Wolkait John McNultT, Xo.

2 8. 3 M. Badge, stroke. The blue shirted men of the Eclipse crew got slightly the best of the load and dashed away at a pace which told plainly that they did not intend to be passed. The Riversides pulled a quick, nervous stroke, and although they made good time in the beginning they seemed to be laboring and not possessed of sufii cient staying power to keep up their gait.

The Hopes pulled at a long, steady eweeping stroke which 6ent their boat rapidly through the water, and their style was much admired. All three steered a good course. The Riversides dropped back before the mile was reach and the Hopes came np close to Eclipse. The Eclipse got around the stake very little ahead of the Hopes. Just as the Eclipse straightened out for home they were a little in the way of the Riversides, who were virtually out of the race, and the Riversides claim being compelled to lose time by getting out of the way and preventing a foul, which they conld not be punished for doing in their own water, and which woald have given the red shirted Hopes the race.

The return was exciting, the Eclipse rowing with a will, and the Hopes whipping her np in the rear. When they were near the home stake the Eclipse men saw that the Hopes could not catch them and slackened up. Amidst immense cheering the band played Over the Garden Wall," and the Eclipse champions thus encouraged acknowledged the compliment by rowing the last ten strokes with lightning like rapidity. The time was 12:45, very fast for the water on which the race was rowed. The nones came in several lenirths behind; and the two crews shook hands together.

This exhibition of fraternal feeling was very appropriate, and the spectators applauded it. The Riversides protested against the action of the Eclipse crew at the turning stake, but withdrew their vroteat before the um pire could decide. The last raea was a consolation race for the wherry men who had failed ta win the prize on the first day. Three candidates defeated by Gallagher of the Riversides got into line. These were: Eclipse Clnb Chas.

Hassoou Neptune Club N. Turk. Perseverance Clnb Pat Carr. Turk, having come in second on the first day, was considered to have an easy and certain victory more so because llnsson got right out of the winning shell to step into his wherry. Can and Turk get away together, and palled a stroke much too laborious for the start.

Hnsson pulled a long, steady stroke and hugged the share, contenting himself whh a position in the rear. After his adversaries were well tired, Hasson commenced working at his oars and overtook them before they reached the stake. The plncky little oarsman held hisown all the way back and Turk made room for Carr, who took second place. Husson's victory was a surprise to many, and when he was seen coming in so far ahead it was thought that be had turned long before reaching the stake and rowed back. Husson won in 16:1 with Carr second and Turk last.

The regatta ended with a tub race in the canal. Turk. of the Neptnnee. and Klin and Jones, of the Riversides, were pilots of the rotnpd, mischievous looking crafts prepared for their accommodation. A duck was turned loose upon the water and they played at the old game of who catches keeps.

The duck did not seem particularly anxious to be caught and caused the tnbbists to indulge ia many a comical antic to head the bird off. The race kept the spectators in a roar of laughter for some time. Finally all three of the wet adventurers abandoned their vessels and betook themselves to swimming to reach the fowl. Turk got near the bird and swooped down apoo it like an eagle. The dock nimbly jumped away, and in evading Turk's grasp dew into the eagerly outstretched arms of Jones.

The regatta was a success, and the as sociation is to be congratulated for its enons to preserve me interest in rowing. It is hoped that next year many new crews will contest for its medals. The trophies will probably be presented to the winners in a few days. Mr. John Lazarus kept the time of the last three races as follows Single scull, 16:45: on roared shell.
