THE CARRIE V,

A Voice From Savin Rock The
 Sharpie Race TO.Morrow. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 SAv1N ROCK, Aug. 26.-We are all glad to think that we are to have one more sharpie race at Savin Rock. I understand that purse of $50 has been raised by subscrip- tion, showing the interest manifested, not only by one, but by many. I hope this ime we will have the pleasure of seeing many new ones and some of the old ones. What has become of the celebrated Carrie VI I think without exception that she is the srnartest sharpie that ever saw move, and I for one, who have paid my little sum to- wards making up this purse, hope that MT. Beecher, the owner of the Carrie V., will avail himself of this chance and enter this race, and it is the. general opinion that he will walk off with the purse Suppose he has not the proper rig. Go with what you have, MT. B., and show your spunk, and also show that the old boat is still there. You have nothing to lose and good purse to gain.

Good Samaritans, Meeting.

Notwithstanding the extreme heat last night Good Samaritans' hall, 817 Chapel street, was crowded. The exercises were deeply interesting and were appreciated by the large audience in attendance. The speakers were MT. George R. Burton and Vice President J. A. Moore. William H. Conklin presided. In MT. Moore's brief but effective address the evil effects of liquor drinking were referred to and also the neces- sity for earnest and persistent efforts on the part of all good temperance people to allevi- ate the distress of those persons who come under it's blighting influence. MT. Burton in logical and convincing way spoke of the physiological effects of liquor drinking and warned the young and inexperienced to be- ware of the intoxicating cup and refrain from the baneful habit of drinking, which, when confirmed would hold them in a vise-like grip. He counselled those who were under the thraldom of King Alcohol to evoke their manhood and make determined effort to reform and become sober and tenn perate men. President Conklin gave the in- vitation to signatures to the temperance pledge and in response number came for ward and affixed their names to it. Carl Bergman gave recitation in his usual felic- itous manner. Howard w. Durand treated the audience to vocal selection. which was admirably rendered and received hearty ap- plause. Miss Lottie Reynolds, the gifted and popular elocutionist, delighted the audience with recitation, and in response to an en- core she gave reading. Miss Reynolds is only nine years of age and possesses remark able elocutionary powers. Notice was given that next Wednesday evening the singing class meeting at Samaritans Hall, and next Thursday evening the regular monthly meet ing will be held.

A FREE RIDE TO THE SHORE.
The Sick Veteran Soldiers At The Hospital Entertained By Admiral

The Sick Veteran Soldiers At The
 Hospital Entertained By Admiral
 Foote Post.
 Yesterday occurred the annual free ride and shore dinner given to the invalid sol diers at the State hospital under the direc- tion of Admiral Foote post. The old veter- ans were notified by the visiting committee the Sunday previous of the arrangements a full week they had been anticipating the pleasure they were to enjoy. About II o'clock yesterday forenoon one of Smedley's elegant barges, generously donated for the purpose was driven to the hospital and the "old vets" were soon comfortably "stowed away" and on their way to Savin Rock. Ac- companying them was the Admiral Foote post hospital visiting committee, consisting of John NJ. Grove. Mark Bassett and Miss Ida Beecher, also Mrs. Frances l.. Martin, president of the Womans Relief corps, who kindly rendered her valuable aid. On the way to the ''Rock" Mrs. Martin rehearsed in an intelligent manner some of her exper- fences on her recent trip to San Francisco as delegate to the national department of the Women's Relief corps. Her experience, as related, greatly interested the old solulefs Wno pdlu strict attention to her recital. The barge, on it's arrival at the Rock, stopped in front of Twitchell's restaurant where they were to dine and in the interim before dinner wan dered about the grove and on the shore and seemed to enjoy themselves immensely. When dinner was announced they again re- paired to MT. Twitchells cosy quarters where they enjoyed frst-class shore dinner. The dinner, like the barge, was donated, and the committee feel very grateful toward Comrade Twitchell for his generosity and to Smedley Brothers as well. The barge reached the hospital on it's return at 5:15 p. m.. all feeling well pleased over the success of the pleasant affair.
