waii, the Bonnie Dundee was third
and the Helene last. 1t was a drift
ing match to the Spar buoy, which
was reached by the three leading
yachts about the same time, the
Healani slightly ahead from the
Spar to the Bell buoy. The
Healani and the Hawaii fair
ly outsailed the Scotch boat, but
from the Bell to the stake
boat off WAIKIKI the Bon
ME Dundee overhauled and
weathered the two leading boats,
turning the stake boat two
minutes in advance of the Hawaii,
which had taken the lead away
from the Healani. Off Waikiki a
fresh breeze was blowing, and as
the yachts tackled round the stake
and entered the long stretch, set
ting all their light sails as they
each bore away before the wind, an
exciting race was expected, but off
the harbor it fell calm with the
yachts in the following order: The
Bonnie Dundee, first Hawaii, Sec
ond Helene, third and the Hea-
lani, fourth. From this point a
drifting race ensued till near the
stake boat off Pearl Harbor, when
a breeze again filled their sails.
The stake was rounded first BY the
Bonnie Dundee, closely followed
by the Hawaii and Helene, which
had steadily gained on their Scotch
adversary. From this point it was
q steady beat to windward with
variable winds, the Bonnie Dundee
steadily drawing away from
her adversaries, rounding the
bell buoy and squaring away
for home some distance ahead o.
the other yachts, who rounded in
the following order Hawaii
Helene and Healani.
All the yachts stood up the en-,
trance to the harbor on one tack
the Bonnie Dundee carrying the
wind to the finish, the Hawaii ane
Helene being close together at tn,
lighthouse, from which point thu
wind again died out, and tn,
Helene passed the Hawaii a it'll,
to windward only to be becalmed
in this position the two yacht
slowly drifted to the finishing poin
off the Oceanic dock, which tn,
Hawaii reached first, having drifteC
past the Helene off the ocean,,
dock, the Healani being off tn
Kinau wharf as the two forme
boats crossed the line.

THE BALL.
A Brilliant Ending of Most
Successful Holiday.

The festivities of the day were
as usual closed with a ball, and
the affair was an exceptionally
brilliant one, constituting fitting
finale for the glorious Fourth. A
large pavilion was constructed
especially for the occasion, which
was gaily decorated with flags, and
its smooth well waxed floor offered
a perfect surface for dancers. The
pavilion, verandas, Railways and
parlors were all thronged with
guests, and the Hotel has rarely
presented a brighter scene. At
II 80 an elegant supper was
served, and at midnight dancing
was resumed until the first cock
crow warned the tardy jewellers
that the Fourth of July, for this
year, was oyer.

THE YACHT RACE.
The New Scotch Craft Comes in
Ahead of the Others.

The yacht race of July 4th at
tracted considerable attention from
all quarters. The decks of the
vessels moored iii the vicinity of the
Mail wharf were crowded with
spectators at the time of the start.
Contrary to the expectation of
the yachtsmen the strong trade
winds that had prevailed the pre-

by the 4th and when the signal
was given for the start, the four
yachts were hardly able to cross

being barely wind enough to fill
their sails.

She is greatly exhausted and cannot turn
her head on the pillow. The cough is
said to have increased in volume This

Harrison passed a comparatively quiet
day and did not suffer so much from
nervousness. She experienced more diff

nourishment, which she has heretofore
taken with systematic regularity. AL
though she is in such very weak state,

Floor of the Armory.
CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-Fully 10000 people
thronged the floor Of the First Infantry
armory tonight sin response to invita-
tons issued by Lieutenant Colonel Trtr-
ner of that regiment. In point Of fnum-
bers the event far surpassed the notable
affair last night, and in brilliant success
it was fully its equal. Colonel Turner's
courtesy was extended to visiting officers
of the National Guard and regular army,
members OF the Loyal Legion, distin-
guished guests and their friends.
The affair was admirably managed by
Colonel Turner and Lieutenant Henry
Barrett, Master of Ceremonies. The
armory was tastefully ana elaborately
decorated and its interior presented a
handsome and patriotic appearance. The
ball was essentially military in all its
features, and when the festivities were at
their hight the great floor, covered with
the bright costumes and brilliant uniforms
OF the gentlemen, presented a handsome
appearance.
Colonel Turner was assisted in receiv-
ing by Mrs. Nelson A. Miles, General
Miles and Mrs. Nettieton. General Net
tleton, Mrs. Castleman and others. The
reception began at 500 and lasted two
hours, WnGll the OfcneSIra, which mad
been devoting itself to promenade music,
changed to liveiier tune, and in few
moments the hall was filled with revolv-
ing couples. Shortly after midnight the
gentlemen who were present at the Eel
lowship Club dinner adjourned and,
with Nice-President Morton at their
head and accompanied by Whitelaw
Reid and Chauncey Depew, went to the
armory. MIR. Morton and party were met
at the door by military escort in full
uniform and conducted to the receiving
party.

sounded the Officers call" and the
members of the Loyal Legion formed Il

them gathered the officers of the regular
army and navy, and beyond these clus-
tered sthe National Guard. When all

Action Taken on the Complaints OF DIR.
Briggs.
ALBANY On. ", Oct. 2O.--The Judicial
Committee reported on two complaints Of
DR.. Briggs and his friends against the
New York Presbytery in the Presbyte-
rian Synod this morning. The commit
tee finds the complaints in order, but
recommends that it is inexpedient to
take action at the present time for the
reason that the highest court has taken
action covering the points at issue and
the lower court is now preceding on the
the case. Consideration of the report
was set down for the afternoon session.
In the afternoon it was recommended
that approval be put upon the report of
the New York Presbytery, with the eX-
ception of the portions touching upon the
Briggs controversy.
1t was finally moved that approval be
postponed until the meeting Of the synod
next year. The motion was carried
unanimously.
Afterward the Judicial Committee re-
ported that the Prosecuting Committee
Of the New York Presbytery wished to
withdraw the appeal from the action of
that presbytery in dismissing the charges
against DIR. Briggs. This the committee
could not favor and decided the appeal in
order.
n motion was made that permission be
given to withdraw the appeal and it was
adopted with some dissenting voices.
The majority report of the committee
on the two complaints of DR.. Briggs and
friends was then taken up, when it was
announced that minority report was in
the course of preparation. 1t was moved
that the consideration of the majority re-
port be postponed until the minority re-
port is submitted, which was then done
The minority report agrees with the ma
jority, except the recommendation that it
is ineXpedient to take action at present.
A hot discussion followed the receipt Of
the minority report, but facetious dele
gate kept the assemblage in peaceful
frame of mind. AT length motion was
made and adopted that both reports be
accepted. Then it was moved that the
majority report be adopted. The motion
was amended by providing for the adop-
ton of the minority report.
After innumerable motions and coun-
termotions, and several lengthy speeches.
the synod adjourned, and discussion will
be continued tomorrow.

memory of Columbus.
Chief Justice Fuller was next intro
duced and responded briefly to the ap-
closed by introducing Governor Mckin-
words and gave way to Mayor Wash
burne. who was followed by Chauncey
NJ. Depew.
Depew made one of the neat speeches
tor which he is famous, during which
he recited dialogue with an enthusiastic
Chicagoan, who asked him what be
thought of the parade. Depew replied
that the parade was over when he ar
rived. He was then asked what he
would have thought of the parade if he
had seen it. He answered: Prom the
days of Rameses II. to the time when

CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-Last nights society
set the glittering seal of her approval
upon the Worlds Fair. To-day it was
the turn of the people to express appro-
baton, and they did it in a manner that

lation. One in twenty marched in the
parade, and the other nineteen, rein
forced by half a million visitors, packed
the streets, perched on the roots and win
dow sills and jammed the various stands
along the line of march. The gigantic
procession passed through the streets
without delay, always moving swiftly.
The crowd that witnessed the process
sion was something astounding. Chicago
at different times has handled throngs of
visitors, but this one was beyond any
thing she ever dealt with before. 1t is
estimated that at least million two hun
dred thousand people viewed the parade,
and after it was over the majority OF
downtown restaurants were compelled
10 close the doors until they could attend
to those who had already gained admit
lance. In the main, however, Chicago
was equal to the occasion.
There were naturally some accidents
fainting women and children trampled
upon, and here and there man dropping
from the roof.
The parade was handled in a perfect
manner, and was permitted to finish the
march without hindrance, due to efficient
