Numerous Picuies and Hops During
the Last Week.
The past week. with the exception of one
or two DAYS, has been as lively as at any
time during the summer. The weather has
not been rs pleasant as might have been
desired. but taken altogether the week has
been one of the best this season. In the
last day or two guests at the larger hotels
have thinned out considerably. and Hotel
ST. Louis. Lake Park and the LAFAYETTE
viii probably close on the first of next
month, though there is considerable talk of
running the Lafayette up to Sept IL, or
until the state fair is over. If the weather re
mains warm and pleasant il would I'M
doubleday pay the management to keep the
hotel open. This week will probably wind
up the social season ut the lake. Most of
the cottagerS will return home earlier than
usual this season OF account of wanting to
be in town during fair week.
The MaSOns' picnic last Wednesday wa
one OF the largest and most successful pic
MICS ever given Ut Lake MinnetOnka. Not
thing occurred to mar the pleasure of the
day, and substantial sum was realized for
the benefit of the temple and
Masonic Relief association. This week
there are TO be several small
excursions and picnics, besides the greatest
boating event that has taken place at Min
netOnka since the professional shell races
here two years ago. This regatta is gotten
up by the management of Hotel LAFAYETTE
and Manitoba road, and is to take place
Saturday afternoon in front of the La
tayette. Elegant prizes and suitable med
ais will be given. Members of the Mime
sofa, Lurline and Saltwater boat clubs will
compete in four-oared, single and double
Scull and pair-Oared races. The fishing is
improving, and there are more fishing par
ties going out now than at any time this
summer, and the catches are large and nu-
merOus.
YACHT CLUB REGATTA.
The Excelsior Yacht and Amusement
club sailed their last regatta of this season
i'm Excelsior bay yesterday afternoon. \
strong breeze was blowing, but the race was
not as interesting or exciting as it would
have been ii the course had been made ten
miles instead of four. The yachts had To
tack" 50 often in sailing over the four
miles that il showed only who was the best
yachtsman and not which was the fastest
craft. Only five boats started. Below is
a summary:

Wave. ~ Camp. .31:4O
Gypsy DIR. Stevens.
nOdesty. $1,000. Carl Puckett. .3O:4j
