VANCOUVER, B. c.. July 14-Aus-

cent Lung line steamer CuIgOa has
been sold TO the United States. The
report also states that she is being fit

seemed TO hang about the movements
of the vessel, and the Investigations of
a Sydney Herald reporter resulted, so
the report goes, in the above facts be

The Culgoa Is a very speedy vessel
For several years she has traded to
sydney. carrying a general cargo from
London and produce back. Her crew
number forty-seven men. When the
vessel was sold 10 the United States

The latter choice meant in plain Eng

Sam. The destination of the ship was
not disclosed, but the members of the
crew, to a man, declared they would
stand by her. The blue anchor on the

Detail OF Sport at the Track the
Closing Night.

There We're several quite good things
for the wind-up at Cyclomere on Satur-
day evening last. The crowd was very
small. Not more than 300 people We're
in the grand stand, while the bIeacher
contingent was exceedingly light.
Tom Y King is the amateur champion.
He has climbed to the top by hard and
constant work. Time was when King had
to make a hard fight for place, but he
stuck to it and his determination and
strength have been rewarded. Hermann
Ludloff has proven himself plucky rid
er and will improveT but he was beaten
squarely by King in the match. King
took the first heat, Ludlof the second.
The third was a pretty dead heat, and
the fourth was taken by King. All of
the finishes were fine The best time for
the mile was 2:46.
In the amateur mile handicap, with KING
and LudIoff out of it, there was a dead
heat between Santos and Long, with
Frank at third money. There were seven
starters in this race and it was an inter
estfng contest from start to finish. The
run off resulted in a win for Long.
Allan Jones did not start in the profess
sfonaI mile handicap. Manoa won from
the scratch. Sylvester, who had forty
wards. was second and Jackson, from
seventy yards, was third Time, 2:43 -
Eight men came to the tape for the
two-thirds of mile greenhOrn race. Dan
Vida won, with Vierra second and Law
renee third. There was a good deal OF
sharp sprinting from the start.
Little Mike O'Trilby ''made tricks and
earned lots of applause.
The tug-of-war was between the Leahl
and TwiIei teams, and was won by the
former in twenty-eight minutes Several
of the contestants were drunk but the
event made lot of sport.

THE FREEHOLDERs
A Short and Indecisive Meeting Last
Night

The board of frehoders struggled las,
evening with the question Of a board Of pub
lie works, and came 10 no conclusion.
Chairman Lee, Messrs. Hazard, Variel
Crutcher, Newmark. Morgan, Coin, Graft
Groff and O'Melv5ny were in attendance.
Judge Var!el presented long report on
The question Of having a board Of public
works. He made he claim that by putting
the Vrooman act on the charter many Of
the objections to the existence Of n board
Of public works would be removed. This
would take certain duties Of the counc,!
city clerk, street superintendent and various
commissioners, so far as they relate tc
street work, ard would vest their duties in
a board of public works.
A vote was taken on the simple question
of having a board Of public works and i;
was carried by six to FIVE
The discussion then went back to the
question of the creation of board of public
works In connection with the question of
Incorporating the Vrooman act in the char
ter. Finally, as several members were alb
sent, the question was carried over to the
next meeting.
An amendment to the health committee s
repor, was read, making all police officers
sanitary inspectors, also providing for the
appointment of a chemist and bacteriolo-
glst to inspect all specimens Of food stuffs
and analyze and report on them. This was
adopted.
1t was decided that the provision con-
templated, forbdd.rg the boring Of oil wells
in any part of The city, should not be adopt
ed, leaving the matter to the Judgment Of
the council.
Mr.. Newmark amended the report Of the
park committee giving the park commits
sioners control Of bou!evards which NAV
he constructed for the purpose Of connect
Ing the parks.
Mr.. Newmark then presented a new sec.
ton to the park committees report, pro
v'd'ne that the park beard may at It's dis
erection plant trees on streets, and NAV as
sess to the property fronting on such tree
planted streets, not exceeding Is cents n
