It was conceded by the committee that the Allco II. was tho best decorated launch for dny deco rations and the Mlrac was tho best decorated for night decorations, therefore In view of this discrepancy In tho progrnmmo it was concluded to give the Allco H. and tho Mlrac the first nnd second prizes Jointlyand tho third prize was awarded to the launch Tourist.

Thoro Is a good donl of speculation as to what Is tho cost of tho speed boats which aro taking part ln tho boat races. Tho Pacer of Portland, which Is lioro to run ngalnst tho Wolf is ono of the most expensive boats of Its class. It cost J8.000. Tho "n gluos In the boat cost f 0,000 nud tho boat Itself cost about $2,000 more. Tho J;wo boats which nro owned h" A. II. Powers nro nlso expensive, but did not cost as much as tho Pacer. The reason Hint A. II. Power, did not start his boat, the General 11., wns hecauso ho did not hnvo tho pro pellor necessary. Ho needed a new wheel and recently telegraphed for what he wanted but thoro was a mis take In supplying the order and ho consequently could not stnrt tho boat In thoso races. Some thought Hint thu Genoral'irrwnB notfntho snnio class with tho (Other boats In the races, but that was not tho reason for tho boat not stnrtlng. It was simply becauso Mr. Powors did not recolvo tho right kind of n propeller which ho ordered nud It wns too late to got what ho needed. Spcclnl Train Accommodation.
