Many of the ladies attend ing wore the conventional evening dress. All in all it was a representa- tive Alaska gathering to bid farewell to the guests. Dancing was indulged in until one o'clock.
 Expressing sincere regret at the parting the officers and their ladies were further entertained at various small parties after the dance was over and carried away with them many souvenir tokens of the friendship form ed in Seward Needless to say that the Gateway city will always have warm. spot in the memories of those depart ing.
 Due to the arrival of the Victoria from Nome several officers were com- pelled by duty to tender their regrets for not being able to be present.

Refuge had been sought on the lee side of the cape, the small ship doing nicely. A sudden shift in the wind, together with added violence. drove the small craft high and dry on the beach. Unable to return the Teddy to water, the party was com pelled to establish camp on board, and, owing to shortage of fuel, the living conditions were anything put pleasant during the long winter The party eventually arrived at Nome about the first of July making the t1p overland.
 While in Seward Ctp Mcintyre wa,' required to undergo an operation to his right hand for the removal ot ZZ calibre bullet, shot into his hand zz years ago Capt Gillis, of the transport Buford performed the operation.

FavOrites Beaten in Feature
Race at Jamaica; Oceanic a
Victim of Cough.

Several months ago it was determined
that the Montauk Selling Stakes be the
feature of May 9th's racing at Jamaica.
1t was, to surprising degree. With a
field OF seven reduced to trio Dot. an
imported juvenile filly by Tagliamento--
Dorigen, carrying L. Fator in the ]. Byer

left no doubt OF her superiority over
True Flyer and Blanc Seing. The others
were equal choices. while Dot was un-
noticed at eos. Her performance dupli-
Gated Great Mans of the previous day,
and cast dismay into the ranks of the
form students
Beyond that surprise there was little
but gloom, most Of It produced by the
admission that Oceanic, the Glen Riddle
FARMS Preakness candidate had fallen
victim of the coughing epidemic which
necessitated his withdrawal from the
first race which had been expected to
provide him with a final test before ship
ment to Baltimore
Dots victory was convincing, and
showed that she is above the average.
Fator sent her away on the lead for the
five and a half furlongs trip while True
Flyer was kept under restraint. Mari
nelli succeeded in disposing of Blanc
Seing but hastened True Flyers own
defeat when Dot was permitted to steal
away on the bend into the stretch. Blanc
Seing dropped back in encouragement
while True Flyer failed to respond to
urging. and Dot drew out so that she
had three lengths to spare at the end.

been withdrawn from the Prospect

upon the outside the inexperienced

HEMPSTEAD DECIDES
TO BUY ITSL LINKS.
New Country Club to Take
Over 123 Acres at 81, 100
an Acre.
BY KERR N. pETRIE.

With the membership now over 500
and working rapidly toward the maxi
mum OF $50 the stockholders OF the
Hampstead Country Club have author
ized the board of directors to exercise
the first option in theslease which gives
them the privilege of purchasing the
property at s1.1oo an acre. Originally
It was intended to have a membership
of only 800, but the decision Of the club
to avail itself of an additional twenty
three acres OF land brought added lnan-
ciel respons s.bilities. which no doubt ac-
viii be admitted.
At the outset the founders OF the
Hampstead Country Club faced a plan
which called for outright purchase by
May I. 1922. for $4,000. That figure
covered the original 100 acres of prop
erty. AS the price by next May would
have been S210,000. with an increase
each year OF $4,000 until 1925 when
the option would expire, the club has
done splendidly.
The club was organized little more
than a year ago and wonderful progl ess
has been made. Nine holes were open
for play last September. Three holes
more will be ready next month, while
1t Is the intention to have the entire
eighteen in shape by next September.
The clubhouse. formerly a fine old
manor house. has been renodeled. a
locker room with adequate showers in
stalled, and some of the best tennis
courts in the metropolitan district built.
As a mark OF appreciation the officers
have been returned for second term.
They are Jesse Richards. president
w. II. Eaton. vice-president; w. F.
Mccullough. secretary. and F. B. Haw-
kins. treasurer.
