did not know the result until elaborate
calculations of time allowances, starting
time and finishing time had been made.
In yesterdays race the time allowances.
were calculated and were given to the
various boats before they started-the
smallest boat started first, then the next
smallest and so on, until the largest boat
in the fleet was reached, which crossed
the starting line last. Great interest was
felt in the event, because 1t brought out
the four big Schooners Lurline, Aggie,
Chispa and Ramona, and also because the
sloop Mike, which has never competed
in any races on the bay, though she has
the reputation of being very fast, was en-

Visitors who went over to Sausalito
yesterday even by the earliest ferry boats
must have wondered what in the world
had become of the fleet of yachts general
ly to be seen at anchor In front of the
San Francisco Club house. Only three
boats remained-Dr. A. w. Mckenzes
sloop Sappho, G. T. S. Whites sloop VIII
O the Wisp and w. NJ. Edgell's little yawl
Dulce. All the other craft had sailed up
to Vallejo on Saturday afternoon or even
ing and anchored in the channel we'll
above the ferry slip, in readiness for the
trial of speed held yesterday. The event
was conducted on a plan which is novel
in the Bay of San Francisco, and which
certainly proved very interesting. Hith-
erto in regattas or races the yachts have
crossed the starting line as soon as pos
sible after the firing of the signal gun
for their class, and as they neared the
finishing point it was quite impossible
for the spectators to tell which boat had

that has taken place in years.

1t is an admitted fact that all property
adjacent to public or private parks en-
hances rapidly In value.
1t is also conceded that no park has ever
attained such popularity within the same
time as Glen Park.
What Woodward's Gardens were to the
city years ago so is Glen Park to-day.
The attendance at Glen Park Dewey day
was Al 2S7. Events to take place there in
the near future will draw fully 100000 peo-

Wherever such crowds go real estate

angry, and he made the mistake of go

attention to the law of the case. BY this

years, while assisting in making up a

missed his footing while trying to board

heard by his fellow workmen, who hast
ened to his assistance, and as soon as a
conveyance could be procured had him
taken to st. Mary's Hospital. where
DIR. Henry amputated both legs. Up to a
