Ing observation difficult. but the down.
pour OF rain which came later cleared
away the haze and made the lights Of
the har6or beacons visible for miles.
As the Caroline rounded Cape Sambro,
several miles from here. the gale and
sea caused some trouble. breaking the
wheel ropes and carrying away some
canvas. Entering. the harbor. the Caro-
line. with the win astern, fairly flew
up to the finish line. but did not stop
until on the custom house, well up the
harbor. It was two hours later before
any one came ashore from the craft.
Chief officer Cane OF the steamer
Florlzel. who navigated the Caroline in
to port. reported all hands we'll and
most enthusiastic over their appa rem,
victory.
Tit Eronel. the second boa. to finish,
arrived off the Royal Nova Scotia
Yacht Club pier al $50 A. NJ, but as tho
weather was too thick for her skipper
to make out the judges boat, she did
not cross the line officially until TIVE
hours later.
Mr.. Dennis. the owner of the Caro-.
line, said to-day that ne was willing /,

LoNeEELLows DAUGHTER.

CARDIFF, Wales, Sept. 9.-One of
the most picturesque figures at the
meeting of the Welsh national eistedd-
fod at Carmarthen recently was Miss
Alice Longfellow, the daughter of the
poet, and it was quite in the fitness
of things that Miss Longfellow should
meet Mr.. Coleridge-Taylor, who has
been one of the musical adjudicators at
the eisteddfod, and whose musical
setting of Longfellow's "Hiawatha" is
by common consent destined for i'm
mortality.
Miss Longfellow said that she had
had the eisteddfod in her mind for
years. The Unborn poetry in the
Welsh race has appealed to me, and
now l have not missed a single meet
ing. The singing of the choirs was
magnificent; but most of all | was i'm
pressed with the singing of the little
children. Their sweet voices, so full
of poetry, contrasted agreeably with
the voices l am used to hearing in
America where they are harsh and
shrill

with a remarkable likeness to the po-.

the qualification he felt at meeting
Miss Longfellow, especially in the
home of the eisteddfod in the very
garden where one of the national gath
erings was held 500 years agoo.
