For hali the distance to the! Channel Grove buoy, the two boats kept on equal terms. Crescent was to windward, but didn't affect her | rival to any oxtent. The two skip- | pers resorted to jockeying, and then Kathleen slipped under the Crescent's| stern and took the windward position, | The jockeying took place for the rest] of the distance on this leg.

Soon the Intter came about but the Kingston boat held on a while longer and when they reached up the lake a goedly space of open water separated the two yachts.

Skip- per Strange came about on the next tack first, but the Crescent followed his move almost immediately. This proved a great run. The American was to windward, bot the Kathleen outfooted him completely.

It was a beautiful run, and when they camo about once more it was any- body's race. This. soemmed to be the leg, that counted for Strange could beat Reeves on the run home. Once more they came about with the Kathleen going well, and a good lead to her credit, though slightly to leaward.

However, it is learned that as a result, the woman was confined to her bed for two weeks, suffiring from a fractured rib and other minor in- juries. She was attended by Dr. Han ley, and the latter was present in court to-day. Fsford agreed to pay $12 doctor's ces. The woman did not want to have the case settled in this way, and wanted the magistrate to hear her story. However, she was persuaded, by her counsel, to let the case drop. "l1 don't know what is the matter with some of the people in Barrie field," said the magistrate. "Some of them appear to be going arowmd with a chip on their shoulder all the time, looking for a fight. Of all the com- plaints of this kind received, the ma- jority of them come from Rarriefiold. |As far as IT can gather, in this case, there is a great deal of blame on both sides. If, igstend of quarrclling, the Barriefield people would endeavor to pass by some of their own failings, they would get along better. The next case that comes to this court from Barriefield will have to be tried to a finish. HM this case had gone on, there would have been a nice sum in witnesses' foes for some one to face. "Hl you want to have these fights," concluded his worship, "we will make it worth vour while." Mrs, Fsford, wife of the defendant, walked over to the reporters' table, and shaking her umbrella in the faces of the seribes, demanded that the "names" in the case be kept out of the papers. The roporters, however, could make no such promises, and the lady was not in a wry good frame of mind when she left the police court. NEWS DOF DISTRICT. -- Local Notes and General. J. A.
