pretty, and what. with the distriou
ton of these and the dainty souvenirs
to all the babies present who did not
take the more, elaborate prizes, and
Senator Fulton's pleasant and witty
oration, the show was brought to the
happiest sort OF conclusion. 1t was a
genuine success from first to last.
There was one prize of 500 that
was not won, and was not delivcrd.
It was for the "homliest baby" on
the ground; and though the staff of
judges made a second and precise
round of inspection, no such child
could be found; it was not there;
there was not morsel OF humanity in
the tent that even approached such
classification; and the prie was
withdrawn, with the stipulation that
if any mother present thought her
baby entitled to it and had been over
looked, she could have recourse by
calling today at the Office Of Herman
| F. Prael, and fling her claim.
Senator Fulton deprecated the inu-
tility OF this valuable prize and broad
ly intimated that it was only fair to
the II chiIdless judges that they be
given just one year Of grace In the

even more manifest before the band
leaves the city. At any event they
must realize that their work has been
thoroughly appreciated.
The water events yesterday were
lively, and all charged with Regatta
spirit; the races, big and little, shell,
canoe, tub, launch, sloop, fshboat all
went off with snap and vigor, and the
funmaking stunts off the grandstand,
the creased pole, foot-log work, wa
ter-ball, etc, were frequent and laugh
able and vastly enjoyed. While up
town the ever-shifting crowds lodged
the interminable showers and hunted
the frail shelters OF the midway" as
much for refuge as for entertainment,
and found both on all side; and when
it rained so that even this recourse
was vain, the people went to the res
taurants and threatres and such dryer
resorts as were available, and man
aged. in some way, or other, to jolly
the day away in sport and mutual
good humor.
Happily the night was clear of rain
through the hours devoted to the
grand marine parade and this offered
a compensating spectacle to the thou
sand on the docks and at the grand
stand. 1t was, as it always is, the
crowning glory of the Astoria regatta
season. There is nothing to compare
with If for charm and real beauty;
and last night was not sort OF excep-
ton to the rule. The Heather, Col
umbine, Major Guy Howard, Lurline,
and scores of lesser craft swung over
the CITY channel course in brilliant
array, with an accompaniment OF
magnificent fireworks, and for two
hours every soul in the city who get
to the waterfront, was there, enjoying
| it to the utmost.
The day was genuinely successful
and lacked only bit more sunshine
to make it perfect. And if there is
anything in the concentrated power
of universal thought, as expressed If
the hopes for today, this should be
the banner day Of the festival. There

Yesterday was no improvement on
Thursday, so far as Regatta weather
was concerned. 1t rained torrent, at
intervals, all day long, and the down
pours timed themselves hagrantly and
persistantly, with the calling OF the
best events of the day, ashore and
afoat. Yet, in spite of all handicaps,
the day was happily spent BY thou
sands ii watching the gamey work OF
the committees and contributors IN
pulling of the specialties set forth in
the program of the second Regatta
day.
The bay was lively with swift craft
of all sizes and builds and the races
came off, if not quite punctually, yet
with fair timeliness and certain spirit
which the idling crowds appreciated
and encored handsomely at each clev-
er turn.
Governor Chamberlain went on
board the flagship Heather in time to
personally start the championship
single shell races yesterday morning
and enjoyed the hospitality OF Cap
tain Byrne and Admiral Shepherd
until noon, when he came ashore and
took marked interest in the events
billed for indulgence there.
Up to a late hour last evening 1t
