Of course 81 Superior turned out to
do honor to the occasion and promptly
at the appointed time the shores OF the
beautiful bay were lined with thous-
ands of people and hundreds of teams,
both people and teams decl1eI out in
their Sunday best" But the man
agement of this days program was
enough to disgust Iottentot lit
was, to put it mildly, very warm, and
the multitude of people famed them
selves, told stories visited, and some of
the men got off under the hills some
where to swear little while al wait
ed, and net blessed ''commotion' oc-
cured to relieve the monotony until
five O'Clock, when 4 little squirt was
made by some amateur fellows III
doubles ana singles. The double race
was won by the Minnesotas, with the
Iurlines second, the Winnipegs third.
OF the five singles that ought to have
entered the race, two, Pearson and
corbett got off, and the latter won the
race

Disguised with the delay while humid
reds had gone home. The race was
probably what would be called good
one. We do not profess TO be Il Judge
Of boat races. Gaudaur's four came

lengths behind, the Fries came along
numerous lengths behind IIanlan, and
Ross four brought up the rear, but

Will not guess at the distance, but we
believe in beat racing "stlaggling' is
not counted and SO the race waS pro-
