THE AFTERNOON SPORTS.
Gadfiy Wins the Class c Event, Sky
lark Failing TO Finish.

Gadhy yesterday proved her speed
by taking the class G event for big
boats. The starters We're Gadhy, Wiz
ard and Skylark. The water was rough
and the wind high. and TO make mat
ters worse heavy fog settled down on
the north shore. Yachtsmen who sailed
over the course said the fog was bank
ed so densely that one could not see
more than few yards, and the Skylark
was unable TO find the buoy at the
end of the second leg. She returned to
the city. Gadfy was more fortunate,
and Wizard also managed to find the
buoy. Wizard took second money.
The class B event. which proved dis
astrous for some of the boats, is de-
scribed on page /,
Two Whitehalls started in the event
for this class OF boats-George Barker's
boat and L. Hartwick's, Barker en-
joyed streak of good fortune, finding
the buoys, but Hartwick was not 30
fortunate and did not finish.
The gasoline launch race was close
and exciting. There were five entries
Fox and Pilot, scratch; Alexander
jr.. minute and Is seconds handi-
cap; S. Schmidt, minutes 10 seconds
handicap, and Louise, with something
more than 5 minutes handicap. The
official time made by the various
launches last year was taken as the
basis for this years handicap The
Alexander soon passed the Louise and
the Schmidt and came in first, with
the Louise close second. James
Keating's Pilot was third a few lengths
behind, the Schmidt was fourth and
John Reid's Fox brought up the rear.
The boats finished close together and
the race was good one.

interest. The flagship Bailey Gatzert,

ed the queen. started for the stand
shortly before 3: 80, amid the deafening
din of the craft along the waterfront
The flagship drew up in front OF the
stand and her majesty took the throne.

Herman F. Prael, Mrs. w. Q. Wilkin--
son and Mrs. C. w. Fulton, headed the
royal procession. and were given an
ovation by the vast crowd The queen
was heartily cheered as she stepped
from the flagship. Her majesty re-
mained at the grandstand until the
noon hour.
The morning was devoted to rowing
races and the minor events, while the
sailing races and gasoline launch races
took place in the afternoon. After the
boats had been sent away the crowd
repaired to Bond and Commercial
streets. where the hose races took place.
