THE INTERNATIONAL CANOE RACE
Stirring Trials Yesterday to Select Amer.

At lOk O'Clock yesterday morning fierce gale was
ploughng i:s way tho Narrowa lashing tho waters
OF the bay into violent commoon and tossing the few
craft anoat about like chps As it passed the boat
house of tho New York canoe cab At Stapieton It
seemed to gather extra force and veerne out OF its
course descended upon the quarters Of the canosts
and with few extra gusts and loud shrektng basis
seemed to defy the sailors bring out the trail boats
Tho New Works had no such intention and the action
of driving rain storm in the wake Of the gale WAS
tirely uncalled for.
In order to state that the gale and its fellow
col.eorator had not made their appearance the club

and the pet daughter saw much of her
father under all circumstances. When
even the dogs were chased out of the
novelist's study, Mamie was allowed to
stay. The daughter is now full-grown
woman, living quietly just outside of
London. For the first time since her ia
theirs death, Miss Dickens has been per-
suaded to write of him whom she knew
so well, During 1892 there will be pub
lished in The Ladies' Home journal, of
Philadelphia, a series of articles by Miss
Dickens under the attractive title of "My
Father as l Recall Him." Fortunately
for the thousands who will read what
she writes in this series, Miss Dickens
has a retentive memory, and she made
copious notes during her fathers life
time. She will tell in this series every
thing she remembers of her father; how
he educated his children; his family life
and his personal habits; how he wrote
his famous books; his love of flowers
and animals; how Christmas was spent
in the Dickens household; how the nov
elist rOmped with his children: the IA
nous people who came to the Dickens
home, and his last years and closing days.
No articles ever published have in them
SO much promise of telling the world
things which it has never known of Dick
ems, and Miss Dickens's story of her
fathers life will be eagerly looked for
in thousands of homes where the name
of Dickens is like household word.
