senior tours was a desperate race be-
tween able amateurs. The OwashtaA
Dongs had the best position, and the
Winnipegs, LurlineS and MlnneSotaS
were in as smooth course as was ever
laid out on Duluth bay. AT the

and the Gaudaur four are endeavoring
to make a match for s$5, 900, the race to
be three miles with a turn. Jake"
Gaudaur and Ned Hanlan both have
agreed that the race shall be rOwed on
White Bear lake if st. Paul and
Minneapolis will raise purse.
Lake Minnetonka would be acceptable.
All the other professional oars
men here, about twenty-five, would
row other races at the same time and
make the meeting notable one. The
city is crowded with ST. Paul people,
and P. Fl. Kelly isn't the least of them.
On Friday the greatest single scull race
the Northwest has ever seen will be
rowed between Gaudaur, Hanlan,
Teemer, Ten Eyck, Hamm. Ross, Muir
phy, Bosmer, Mckay, Wise and others.
The race will be started at 5 p. M. The
purse is s1,75O to first; $500 to second,
and $500 to third. If the course is
smooth the worlds record will go down
