So far the results have been as expected, with the Sewell-Reilmord match the only exception.
The value of a 'sound defence, as evi- dened by this match, cannot be too emphatically described, and the rising young players of the Colony should make it an object lesson.
Last Monday Redmond was playing the Aarst game he had played for a long time, and it was evident that he was the better man, but there was not the speed behind his shots to pass Sewell, who, working like a trojan, ran from one side of the cart to the other and managed to save ost of Redmond's nice shots, which rather exasperated the latter's to his own detriment, devell, borever. is fully deserving of his victory, for his success de ended more upon a keen anticl. pation of his opponents shits' and a know." ledge of Redmond's temperament than all the running and saving he did in the matcha

Nearly an hour was taken for the first bouts to reach Lyemun, when a little breeze was picked up. Round D'Aguilar, Coquette was first, and i seeand, and Norsemen third, but when Tytan head was reached there was no wind at all. The boats drifted about for Lome time, and then the race was aban doned. Bonts" with motor engines towed the other boats to Repulse Ray. At Cape Collinson the boats went into a thick feg, and the yachtsmen could not see each other's boats for some time.
Two promising young players, W. Chou and F. Cirose, are unfortunately indisposed and have to concede walk overs to R. M. Henderson and H. Lo respec tively.
The departure of I. M. Razack from the Colony to Shanghai breaks up the Ruzack- Cassumbbey combination which is second only to the Rumjahns in the Indian Re creation Chib.
