OEE At LAST!

The conditions under which the race Tor the
Emperor's Cup was started yesterday were not
all that could be desired. Enough log fingered
in the morning TO make the prospect uncertain
and to deter more than few spectators from
going out TO Sandy Hook. Moreover at the
outset the competitors were obliged to race
head Winds instead Of enjoying the westerly
breeze which on Monday was promised for the
morrow Nevertheless, the air was suhclenuy
clear at noon to make departure safe, ana all
of the eleven yachts got away without accl-
dent. Next to the smallest one of the lot the
Ailsa. led the procession, and the largest, the

an hour and ten minutes separating them.

magnifed thereafter for a fortnight in sort

must be exercised in interpreting the victory,
the race itself has many legitimate attractions.

a few days ago started from Algiers to Toulon,
and justifying far more pride on the part OF
their owners.

SUNDAY ADJUSTMENTS.

Bishop Burgess, whose spiritual jurisdiction
extends over Long Island, has expressed his re-
greet at the manner III which Sunday is spent
In a large part of his diocese Horse races are
not permitted on Sundays, and probably will not
be for many years to come; but it is true, as
Bishop Burgess points out that Sunday is large
~ looked upon as a day of recreation and even
of license in some respects. Baseball and other
games are played freely in many places, sea-
shore resorts are thronged in the summer
months, and there is a prevalent passion for
amusement on that day.
This state of things is Inevitably grievous to
many good citizens, and ought, perhaps, to cause
anxiety for the future. 1t is only just, however
to say that there is less turbulence and violence
on Sunday than there was twenty years ago
Coney Island for example, so far as serious Of
fences are concerned, is not nearly so difficult
place to regulate and govern as it was then
Some elements of the population are bent on
getting all the diversion possible on Sunday.
but they are not as rule inclined to make
disorderly use Of the facilities now so literally
provided.
