large crowds to their respective points.
Large parties left Washington for the Great

The race between members horses was Won
by Ella Ross leading all the way around In
three successive heats; Bismarck won the
one.mile running race; Lady Bell was the
winner OF the third race, and Tom Brown won
the steeple-chase, although Alice boswell
maintained the lead until the last obstacle
had been passed.
The Capital Bicycle Club made the run to

rain.

The second day OF the Norfolk regatta began
yesterday at 8 $50 o'clock, and was witnessed
by large and enthusiastic assembly. The
event OF the day was tho race for four.oarod
shells, the entries being the Elizabeths, OF
Norfolk; the Columbus and potomacs, OF
Washington. The crow OF tho Columbus was
Wade, bow; Kondrup, 2; Kentner, 8; Mute,
stroke. The Potomacs were represented by
Mckinney. bow; Ryan, 2; Baker, ., and Nc.
Rae, stroke.
Tho referee was Mr.. James W. Carroll, of
Norfolk, and the Judges as follows: At the
start, Cropley, stelnmetz and Callahan; at tho
finish, Donnivan, Doxan and Nolan.
Tho crews took -Ellzabeths, ! Po-
tomacs, 2; Columbus, 3-being numbered
from tho left bank OF the river. AT the word,
the crews took water at the same time, and the
Columbias led by half q length. The exhibit
tlon that followed has never been exceled In
the history OF the contending clubs. AT no
time during tho race was there clear water
between the boats. When within twenty i've
yards OF the finish the Potomacs spurted. The
Elizabethe, by n desperate struggle, came up
TO them and cut across the Potomacs' bow.
The Columbias crossed the line In 9:25, and
were declared the winners-the Elizabeths
being second and the Potomacs third. There
was great Dissatisfaction among the audience
because the potomacs did not take advantage
OF the foul, which would have been allowed.
One OF the judges gave his decision that 1t
was dead heat, but no was not seconded by
the referee.
The arrangements for the regatta could not
have been poorer. Tho police boat did not
keep the course clear and the tug Nellie Prior,
which was used as n press boat, with full
steam on, was three quarters OF a mile behind
the shells at tho finish. Representatives from
the various clubs received tho prizes ON the
press boat after tho races were over. The
Washington clubs bring home three prizes,
