De Brisay will go in the singles and
Hackett is bow in the four brewery
says the charges cannot be proven,
that they are groundless, for he has
known Hackett for years and is famil-
lar with everything he has done. He
is also growing tired of these objec-
tions to these men. They were made
last year and didn't hold, and he is
confident that they will
NOT HOLD NOW.
Hackett and De Brisay sit around
the porch and say nothing, but neither
one doubts for an instant that both
will be in the events for which they
are scheduled.
The Winnipeg and Rat Portage
crews reached Minnetonka only yes

all remarked the lack of interest and
the utter absence of enthusiasm. The
dlHerence from last year is marked
and an outsider would not imagine
TO be here tonight that anything out
OF the ordinary is to occur tomorrow.
The big day-if there is one-wilI he
saturday, and the races will conclude
OF course with the usual grand con-
cert and hop at the Lafayette at night.
Ihree bets We're placed today on
Minnesota winning the senior four
and the singles. The bets were prompt
ly covered, but no odds were given.
Winnipeg admirers are betting that
the Canucks will win four out of the
seven events, and, judging from their
condlt1on and the experience they have
mad this summer, it will not be at all
surprising if they take four at least.
The Great Northern will put on
extra trains today and tomorrow to
accommodate the crowds There will
be special in at the close of the
races each day. and also one at the
close of the. concert tonight and the
hop tomorrow night.
