1t is strongly urged upon aspiring

hand as early as noon to get handi-
cap and to be officially recognized. II
is intended that the entire feet of
racers leave the city in time enough
to be off the bluff early enough to
permit of taking dinner in the pa
vilion, for such has been arranged for.
Other necessary preliminaries win be
arranged without difficulty once the
handicap feature has been passed !
upon. The course will be laid out
this morning and it will be arranged
so that an unrestricted view of the
racers may be had from start to
6nish. An abundance of seats has
been provided and in addition to en-
Toying the contest for several hours,
visitors will have the delightful privi-
lege Of enjoying the cool breezes from
the bay. Admission will not be
charged, and the white public will be
welcomed. Refreshments are on the
grounds at city prices. OF course the
boat races will be the feature of the
evening and bad weather alone will
keep away an attendance going into
the thousands, for interest in the
sport Is widespread.
