AS the bottoms of the canoes are
rounded, nine times out of ten thew
heeled over and precipitated the oc.
ctpants into the water. who then
were obliged to return and reneat
the attempt until the obstacle had
been passed.
The passing of the higher hurdles
was a more difficult operation. and
proved sufficient to retire all but q
lew OF the more skilful from the
race. The spectators on shore
meanwhile maintained a terrible
din, shouting out the names of their
respective favorites and hallooinp
and encouraging at the tops of their
voices until it seemed as if bedlam
itself had let loose.
! ne excitement was maintained
to the end, for not until the final
hurdle had been passed could anv
one tell who would be the winner.
One canoe might be well in adj
vance when its occupant would up
set it by a bad jump and be passed
by those in the rear. Then the diff
ilculty for the swimmer began. The
canoe had to be righted and baled
out. The next trouble was to get
aboard without upsetting it again.
In some cases the canoe shot ahead
with such velocity that the vaulter
fell short of it and landed in the
water. Then the canoeist had to
make fresh run" at the hurdle.
When several crews were all strug-
Cling for the one place it made a
most amusing picture When the
winner crossed the line he was hail

the hills to their villages to prepare
themselves for a more fortunate
denouement on the next occasion.

Christianity in India.

Religion in India" is the title of
the paper with which the Rev. DR..
Fairbairn opens the June Conteu,-
borary. 1t is a mingling of a travel
er's record and theologian's re-
Elections. One thing he declares to
be obvious even at Bombay, where
he landed:
"The Christian mind from with
out has set all the native forces
working on new lines, under new
FORMS. and toward ends which are
not as yet apparent. 1t has made
education a factor of change. has
forced it forward, increased its
efficiency, and loaded it with new
formative influences. 1t has made
the Hindoo more public-spirited,
the Mofammedan more beneficent,
the Parsee more practical and phil
anthropic."

kinley," the other Mark Hanna"
Now, there is a deal of hunor in
the selection of these names. For
the namesakes of these doomed
monsters were the two great states
men whose political policy the free
silver organizers of the smash
were engaged in fighting.
The opposing engines saluted
each other with their whistles.
Then each was backed half mile
from the midway spot at which
they were to meet in the colossal
crash
At a given signal the drivers
again turned on the whistles, threw
open the throttles and jumped for
their lives.
Away went Bill Mckinley" and
Mark Hanna slowly at first. but
with strengthening speed. Puff
ing, snorting, their whistles scream

rifle monsters bore down upon each
other. There came crash, sound
like thunder, the sharp cracking of
steel rods and iron plates, the fierce
hiss of steam and clouds of smoke
that hung above the ruins like
funeral pall-and the "show" was
at an end.
1t was a scene that will never be
forgotten by the 10000 silent and
awe-struck witnesses, many of
whom were heard to say that on no
account would they ever consent TO
witness such sight again. The
fact is that the show turned out to
be by no means SO free from danger
as the spectators anticipated. 1t
happened that the bill Mckinley"
was much the better engine of the
two, and. starting earlier than his
opponent. upset the careful calcu-
lations made as to the exact spot
where the collision should take
place. The faster engine reached
a speed of forty miles per hour to
the others twenty-five or thirty.
The consequence was that the en-
gines, instead of meeting in the
open space left clear of spectators
for the purpose, collided at point
round which great crowd was as
sembled, and only a panic-stricken
stampede prevented a terrible dis

few nights since, while that scion

horsemen. who were apparently in

There happened to be three cabs
in waiting McAllister gingerly
poked his uncovered head into the
first one. 1t was empty. He tripp-

too was unoccupied. The third was
standing with all its small curtains
closely and invitingly drawn. Nc
Allister wrapped gently with his
gloved knuckles upon the glass of
the door and deity turned the knob.
Again he was disappointed.
Then he returned to the cafe and

For the Benefit OF the ChautauqUa'
On Saturday the 9Th, a dinner, lunch
and supper will be given for the benefit
Of the Louisiana C%hautauqua under the
auspices of some of the most prominent
ladies of NatchitOches. That the
Natchitoches people are liberal almost
to a fault has been clearly demonstrated
BY rhe generous contributions that have
poured IN for the occasion and this gen.
crosby and IiberalItY will be further
demonstrated by the large crowd that
will attend and p%atronIze the supper.
The band over The Enterprise
Office will be the ''soat of the FEAST and
the ladies will be ready to serve all the
substantials and delIcacIes of the season
at reasonable prices from ] o'clock on;aIi
through The afternoon and evening as
long as the good things hold out.
THIS promises to be the society event
Of the season, and as I: will be the first
entertainment to be given after Lent,
which has been, as is always tue case
most religcpTy observed in NatchIbO-
ches. we feel sure that Il will be we'll
attended.
The aim and benefits of the Louisiana
Chnutauqna is thus eloquently set forth
bv the brilliant editor Of the Monroe
Bulletin. WOO is one Of the most infer
osted friends to education IN the State:
''Bevond all question, no matter what
yOar occupation be, no matter what
your age or station In life. il will benefit
and delight you TO go Il the Chautau-
qua this season. The recreation and
pleasure, the refined social endowment,
the physical and intellectual profit will
be greater than you could obtain any,
where else on earth for the same amount
of money, Every teacher IN Ouachi,a
parish ought to go and spend the entire
month. You can live there better and
cheaper and healthier than you can at
home. The North & South Railroad
will be completed and there will be no
longer any trouble in getting to the
grounds. The attendance will be greater
than ever before. New class rooms Will
be builr and Mr.. Aswell has assurance f,
that Tulane UNIVERSITY will erect n
beautiful pavilion for the art department
Extensive Improvements will be made
70 the grounds and Mr.. AswelI is seek
ing to raise a thousand dollars to build
O new dining room and q number of
new bedrooms for the hotel. This
amount will be raised without difficulty
from those who appreciate the inesti-
mable blessings OF the C~hautauqua.
