ON The Open Race Was Won by Yellowlys "Emily 11L."--Thomas McAuley's New Flyer Took Second Place. The motor boat races on Monday morning were conducted by 'the King- ston Yacht Club and were witnessed by a large crowd from Maedonald park. There were two events, an open race and a local handicap. In the open race the course was from the clubhouse to Snake Island, spar buoy and' return, twice around. This was won by Mr Yellowly's Emily II, which covered' the distance in about thirty-two minutes. Thomas McAuley's new boat won second place. The second event was what is called the 'bang and go back," The boats were started over the course, which was to the penitentiary buoy - 'to Myles buoy to clubhouse, and when the leading boat had nearly. completed one round of the course, a gun was fired and the boats turned around and werit back over the course which they covered, to starting point. This race was won by Leslie and Waldron's Soul Kiss, with Steacy's Orea second, and C. H.

Man Run Over; Lady Fainted; Batteryman Thrown, A number of minor accidents occur- red at the fair grounds on Monday af- ternoon. The noise of the aeroplane frightened the horses into what might have resulted in a stampede. As the machine was lightened after its first flight, a man was knocked down, the wheels of a buggy running over him, but he got up and, apart from being muddy, was little: the worse of his mixup, A young lady, overcome by the heat in the crowd, fainted. Dr. Robert Hanley was called from the judges' stand, to attend her, and she soon vevived, In the Victoria cross race of the military sports, a batteryman accom plished a "very dangerous stunt in front of the grand stand. After recov- ering his dummy from the firing hedges, he missed regaining his place in the saddle, lying crosswise. When the horse jumped the hurdle he was thrown, his head going down between the animal's hind feet. However he escaped no other injury than a good shaking up. i s REMOVED COLLECTOR. D. T. Rowse, Bath, Has Been Asked to Quit, The Borden government has added another to its already long list of dismissals. On Tuesday, D. T. Rowse, for the pmst thirteen years collector of customs for Bath, was informed by his superintendent that he was dis- missed on the grounds of active par- tizanship. Of course all who know Mr. Rowse are aware that for years he has taken no active part in elec toral eampaign®, but it needs now but a very flimsy excuse, indeed, to cause the removal of any official, no matter how valuable their services may have been. Let the axe fall. Mr, Borden is only making a better oppo- sition thereby, as he will doubtless find a few years hence, Organ Recital, On Thursday evening, June 6th, there will be a sacred concert and or- gan recital in St. Luke's church, un- der the leadership of R.

The collision of an automobile with a street car on' King street, at 8.45 o'clock Tuesday morning, gave the people on the stieet car a bad scare and was a close call for the driver of the machine." I). Smith, who lives: at 176 King street, came out of his house and the mud being deep around the doors on the side of his automobile, 'which was facing out King street, he got in over the-k and failed to see the street ear coming behind. He had started to turn when the car struck his machine, tearing the ste and breaking the tool box. The foot board of the street car ran through the steel fender, crumpling it like pa per and tearing through it. The front axle was badly bent, the guard finally stopping the foot-board. Thus locked together, Mr. Smith's machine was dragged a distance of nearly one hun dred feet before the car was brought to a stop. The accident, though a close call to Mr. Smith, did not result in any broken bones. Mr. Smith was able to run his ear into the garage, where it was laid ug for repairs, She Liked Another Man. A couple from Napanee finished their celebration of the King's birthday in Kingston, with a "scene" in Reef steak Jack's restaurant, on Brock street, Monday evening. It appears that the woman met a gentleman in the eating house whom she took a liking to, and decided she would not return to Napanee with her husband. The police were called, and tried to settle matters. The husband was de: termined that they should return home together, and when they came out on the street again, endeavored to take her along. However, she would not go, and he had to leave alone. The husband was greatly an: noyed, not wishing to leave his wife behind, saying that she had been a rather expensive partner lately. Assaulted on the Street. A peculiar assault was made on a teamster on Wellington street, nea: Queen, on. Tuesday afternoon. The teamster, John Campbell, was on top of a load of hides and was on his way out Wellington street, when a man stepped up and asked him to come down. As soon as Campbell alighted the man hit him several blows in the face, cutting his face and closing up one eye. Then, it seems, his courage failed him and he whe "had fought so well' while' his op- ponent's hands were tangled in the straps of his cash bag, turned and ran down Queen street at full speed. Campbell chased his man, but the other had got too good a start, "Big. - Night" on the 14th. In addition to Friday, June 14th, being circus day, with the usual big crowd in town, the city will be the destination of a delegation of ecom- mercial travellers irom Rochester, N.Y., who will come to the city on an evening boat. The "drummers" will be 150 or over in number. They will hold a "'jollification" at Lake Ontario park in the evening. The mayor will extend a civic welcome to them, and, likely, W. F. Nickle, K.C., M.P., and Dr. A. E. Ross, MPP, will also speak. The Flying Man.

James Flint appeared on the charge of assaulting Anthény Cochrane, who was called by Police Constable Me Carey to assist hini to bring Salis bury to the police station on Satur day night. P.C. McCarey "arrested Salisbury on Princess street, after ten o'clock. The man was in a very ugly mood, when taken in charge. When the constable had his man on the ground near the corner of Montreal street, adjusting the "nippers," he called on Me. Cochrane to assist him. A crowd had gathered, and stones be gan to fly, a couple hitting the con- stable on the head, but he held his man.

A little boy, five years of age, reached Renfrew on the Kingston and Jembroke train on Saturday af- ternoon, without a guardian." He said his name was Walsh, and that his father was employed in the meat market in Kingston. The youngster was taken in charge by Rev. Father Ryan, who has him at his residence. A message from Renfrew says that the child was deserted by his mother, but this cannot be verified. Conductor Craig, of the Kingston & Pembroke express, which left the city at noon Tuesday, said that a man came to him on Monday to find out if the child reached Renfrew safely. The mgtter was reported to Chief Baillie. Nelles-White Wedding. "The marriage of | Miss Margaret Hunter White, younger daughter of the late J. H. R.

The celebration committee is satis- fled that it has enough for all ex- penges, but will not know for a week or more how things really stand. The expenses were larger than us- ual. The "bird man" got $500, and a good deal of money bad to be spent in fixing the grounds for the events. Complaint of Domestic.
