The attendance on the grounds (for the use of which we are indebt- ed to the courtesy of Mr. A. Bon gard) was not very large, but those present were very much interested in the various games. . Where every comperitor did so well it might seem invidious to particularize ; but the names of Messrs. Foy (one of whom won the silver sugar urn, first prize in the chief bicycle race) McCullough, Cassidy, and Rundle ought to be mentioned, for their athletic performances are seldom equalled, and néver surpassed at even much larget gatherings! their marvellous feats helped to explain to us how it was that the Canadian Contingents so readily 'out man oeuvred the Boers in South Africa. Chief Johnston was present. and with him were half a dozen of his stalwart braves from Scugog. Had their training been in proportion to their strength they would have been more successful in the various, smallest of the competitors, "Well, my boy, are you golhgto win?" "Yes sir" was the reply; and the boy did win, and he deserved to win, for he ran admirably, His flame is John Marsded, Joe Eliot was a good second. IN THE EVENING . # The hall was simply packed -- Amongst the most beautiful of the nuthbers on the program was what is known as the Flag Drill, by twelve girls from Manchester. Dur- ing the performance of it one gentle: man was overheard sayingto an- other "Well, that's the very essence of the poetry of motion," this gives an idea of how it was appreciated. No wonder the girls were rapturous. ly applauded. Those 'who missed the recitation by the Miss Barry missed a rare treat ; the little one gives promise of being one day a very accomplish: ed elocutionist Every word was distinctly uttered, every inflecs tion was correct, every gesture ap- propriate. What can one say of Miss Scenes' singing? or of her of her sister's dramatic talent? It is unnecessary to do more than re- peat what passed between a couple of gentlemen just when Miss Teresa had given. a recitation im= mediately after a song by her sister "Wonderfully well done was it not ? "Yes;" was the reply; and then, "She fills each pause the Nightin- gale has made." Miss Scenes was patticularly happy in having such an accomplished and especially such a sympathetic accompanist as Miss Willard, for the intona< the in tions of the instrument and modulations of the voice were perfect harmony. The unavoidable absenee of Mr, McQueen and his accompanist Miss McCaw was universally regretted and by none more than the chair- man, who was heard to say, "I'm sorry Don. is not here, for he's a real good fellow." That reminds your correspondent to say that the chair was occupied by Mr. Peter Christie, and when he says that every one knows that the chairman's duties were performed with the ut: most grace and efficiency, as well as with all the bon homie for which that gentlemen is so noted and ap: preciated. The following were successtul competitors in the Elocution' Con test : Prince Albert School ; Rita Hun. ter and Effie Bond, (Prizes of equal value.) Prospect School ; Maggie McClin- tock and Maud Cooke, Purple Hill; Theonly represen- tative was Rupert Byers, who did remarkably well, "brought down the house." Port Perry Public School ; Dora Jones and Aleta Still. The brass band from Epsom was int attendance during the day; they sithply excelled themselves, and that i§ saying a good deal.
