interesting, the senior four-oared, which

spect to close finishes. The first heats in
both the intermediate SOULS and the
senior single SOULS were not far behind
in the way of furnishing excitement,
O'Keefe, of Springfield, winning the for
mer, and John Dumohr, of Rat Portage,
Ont, taking the latter.
If the two mile pull of the intermediate
Fights had been allowed as race. that.

mans managed to shoot their shell over
the line ahead of the Canadians.
John Dumohr, of Rat Portage, was the
