Seven Races.

"A speed boat. An open motor boat
A cabin motor boat. A lugger A fiat.
boat. A skiff. A pirouge race"
Hon. Theodore s. Wilkinson is to
enter his speed boat from Myrtle
Grove, as also r. Gordon, from South
Pass. 1t is expected that a number of
other fast boats of this class will com.
pete for the handsome prizes that are
offered. In fact it is hoped that some
of New Orleans friends will enter their
fast boats in this event. The lugger
is the popular rig for the working
boats in this locality and most of them
are engaged in the oyster industry. In
order that our oyster fishermen may
take part in the regatta, a special
event, in the shape of lugger race,
has been arranged. This was a most
popular feature in our last regatta,
presenting a beautiful sight, and it is
believed that the success of the event
will be repeated.
There will be a pirouge race, to be
padded along Doullut's canal from the
bay to the railroad, which is expected
to present some interesting and excit-
ing incidents.

Reciprocity in the Senate.

NSPeCldl lO l He bulietlAl-)
 Washington, April 1o.-That the reciprocity agreement is weaker in the senate than before the adjournment of the last session is freely asserted about the corridors of the capitol these days. If a vote could have been forced on the measure under whip and spur from the White House during the last days of the session the treaty would have been ratified, but the situation is said to have considerably changed, and the reason for the change is said to be largely due to the activity of the high protectionists, who are said to have been very busy since the extra session was called. That the Canadian agreement is going to have hard sled diSg on the senate end of the build ing is admitted by members of all po- litical parties, and many can be found who say that reciprocity stands a good show of being defeated.
 The senate regular republicans have never been cverenthusiastic for the treaty believing it to be but an enter ing wedge for the reduction of tariff duties all along the line They say that if the protection of farm products
