Duncan put up a better fight thon was indicated by his defeat by zz shots to 14 and without detracting at all from the very fine play of Rum- Jahn, it was generally conceded that Damo Fortune played a conspicuous part in the match.

„There was a good gathering to witness the final conclusions of the men and the score of seven all at the eleventh head was evidence of the keenness of the duel.

In the resumed race, howover, the second man broke the tape first. Morton immediately printed out the harshness of the situation.

The stewards scratched their heads at a hurried conclave. The bright Buggestion then came forward that TWO first prizes should be granted. It was accepted.
