Dinner was served in the beautiful gardens of the college, which were aglow with electric light, and ample justice was done to the savoury viands, not to forget an artistic cake, which was the chef d'oeuvre of the feast. At dessert, the Brother- Director, in a choice speech, referred to the success of the gymnastic display, which was thanks to the zeal shown by the jury and Mr. H. C. Tookey, the indefatigable gymnastic instructor. Mr. Tookey made a suitable reply, and acknowledging the kindness which he had ever experienced at the hands of the college, declared his determination to show himself worthy of that appreciation. He was followed by one of the jary-an Old Boy of the college --who gracefully acknowledged the compliment paid to himself and his fellow-jurors by the very sympathetic frère directeur.

AN UNPROVOKED ATTACK.
OFFICIAL COMMUNICATION.
The official version of the attack upon British officers at Denishwai (Menonfieh province), which was given to the Press yesterday afternoon by the Ministry of the Interior, shows the case to be graver than earlier reports indicated, insomuch as it is now evident that there was not the slightest provocation for the assault -either real or imaginary. The British officers implicated appear, indeed, to have acted with exemplary self-control, and by surrendering their arms in the hope of quietening the excited villagers and persuading them of their peaceful intents, they deprived themselves of all means of self-defence. The baseless rumours and garbled accounts which we and others have received are exceedingly regrettable, as they are apt to persuade some people of a certain amount of negligence on the part of the officers concerned, and we would, therefore, lay full stress on the official communication which we publish below, and which is the result of the progress of the inquiry up to Saturday last. In the meanwhile we must refrain from further remarks upon the case until the preliminary inquiry has been completed and the special tribunal, composed as we have already notified of Boutros Ghali P. cba, Mr. W. G. Hayter, Judge Bond, Ahmed Fathy, and Lt. Col. E. R. Ludlow, has given judgment. The following is the full text of the official communication :
On Wednesday, the 13th inst., at about 1 p.m. the officers of the Mounted Infantry, with the exception of Lieutenant Hargreaves, K. R R., who was left in charge, left their camp on the right bank of the Bagourieh Canal and proceeded, on horses and in carriages specially sent by Abd el Meghid Bey Sultan, a notable of Menouf district, to Denishwai, at a distance of about 6 miles, to shoot pigeons. When they passed through Menouf, Abd el Meghid Bey, hearing that they wished to shoot pigeons at this village, where M-jor Pine-Coffin had shot last year without any objection being made, promised to offer every facility.
Accordingly, when they found carriages and horses waiting near Sersina they thought that all was prepared, and that they would be welcomed. All the officers were in uniform and were accompanied by an onbashi of police and by their guide.
On reaching the village, Major Pine-Coffin, Captain Ball, and Lieutenant Smithwick proceeded to the north of the agricultural road, and took up their places for shooting about half a mile away from the villages; Captain Bostook, R. A. M. C., and Lieutenant Porter going to the south of the agricultural road, taking up positions about 150 yards away from Captain Bostock (each other or the other party). The distance between Lieutenant Porter and the nearest threshing floor was about 100 yards, and of Captain Bostook the same. The onbashi of police proceeded to the west side of the village to inform the omdeh of the arrival of the officers. The omdeh, however, turned out to be absent at Chibin-el-Kom. Meanwhile, the officers began shooting, and Captain Bostock and Lieutenant Porter noticed that villagers had collected in their vicinity, closing in upon them, and that their attitude was becoming threatening. The villagers then collected around Captain Bostock, and began interfering with him. Lieutenant Porter, seeing this, came towards him, and, after going a short way, was surrounded by the villagers, who attempted to take away his gan.
Major Pine-Coffin and Captain Bull, seeing the crowd round the spot where the others were shooting, came over to join them and Lieutenant Smithwick was signalled to by the guide.
Lieutenant Porter states that after trying to unload his gun without success, he succeeded in putting it at "safety," after which it was snatched from him. Almost immediately he heard a muffled report, and the gun had gone off. Lient. Smithwick states that he heard the muffled report and saw the crowd surge apart. In the vacant space he saw Lieut. Porter and, about three metres from him, a man with Lieut. Porter's gun in his hand.
It was afterwards ascertained that the accidental discharge of Lieat. Porter's gun, after it had been taken from him, had resulted in four persons, including one woman, being injured.
Prior to the crowd actually interfering with Captain Bostock, a small fire broke out in the threshing-floor, some 100 yards N. E. of where he was standing. This was immediately extinguished, but evidently added enormously to their excitement. They seemed to pretend that the fire was caused by the officers, although a visit to the spot shows that this was atterly impossible, and it seems more likely that it was a preconcerted signal for the
general attack to take place.
Major Pine-Coffin, seeing how excited the people had now become, gave up bis own gan and desired the others to give up theirs also. The officers then withdrew in the direction of the agricultural road, the crow following and throwing clods of earth and striking them with nabouts and stick. The officers, who, as above stated, had given up their guns in order to prevent further trouble, were in consequence defenceless and unable to protect themselves from the b'ows dealt at them, chiefly from behind. They got into their cabs, bat the drivers could not, or would not, drive away and the villagers, after continuing to throw missiles at them, pulled them out and continued to beat them.
The offi> rs then decided to run down the road towards their camp, a distance
of aboat
A patrol of Mounted Infantry, which turned out at once, found Captain Bull lying unconscious about 40 yards to the east of Sersins market, north of the road, about one mile and a half from camp; he was carried into the enclosure, whence he was ultimately transported in a carriage to the camp, where he died about 7 p.m. Major Pine Coffin and the other two officers, after receiving further blows, were taken back to Denishwai village, to the spot where the wounded woman was lying. The people pointed to her and made signs of cutting throats.
The sheikhs and some of the ghaffirs and inhabitants now succeeded in forming a ring round the officers and keeping the people away. They then took the three officers to a spot a short distance away, brought them water, and made them sit down.
The police officer from Shohada, having now arrived, conveyed them to the carriage, which took them back to the camp. On their way they met a patrol of Mounted Infantry, which was ordered to return. The sergeant-major in charge of one of the patrols of M. I. brought in four prisoners from Sersina market and stated that there were five others who fired two shot, upon the patrol. The patrol fired two shots in reply but no one was hit on either side. The sergeant-major also reported that he discovered a dead man in a hole in a corner of the market. Captain Bostock and a markaz doctor, who saw the body some 20 hours later, are of the opinion that death was caused partly by a crushing blow with a sharp instrument and partly by a blant one. The official investigation into this part of the affair takes place on Sunday afternoon.
Another native has also been found with a shot wound in the leg, said to be caused by a larger bullet than that of the Lee-Enfield rifle. The inquiry into this is being undertaken today. The injured man says that his wound was not inflicted by a soldier, but by one of his enemies.
There are at the present moment 45 accused, of whom 35 have been arrested These are being removed to Chibin el Kom, the headquarters of the Monditieh, which, as the chef lieu de la localité is where the trial will take place, probably at the end of the week. The inquiry is being pushed on with the greatest energy and it is expected that several more accused will be arrested and brought to trial.
The principal evidence is naturally that of the officers themselves, who have identified a certain number of their assailante, several of whom have also been accused by the ghaffirs, the shikari, the cab-drivers, etc.
Major Pine Coffin, who is in the Government hospital at Tantah, is going on well, as are also the other three officers. Their injuries were, however, very severe. Major Pine Coffin had his arm smashed and several severe blows about the head and body. When thrown to the ground he was kicked and trampled on by the crowd. Captain Bostock, Lieut. Smithwick, and Lieut. Porter all received heavy blows from nabouts and from the missiles thrown at them. Captain Bull, who died the same evening, as has been already stated, had received two severe blows on the head. All the officers were robbed of the contents of their pockets.
(FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT). Denishwai, Sunday.
150 Mounted Infantry of the British Army of Occupation, who were on the march down from Cairo to Alexandria, arrived on the morning of the 13th inst., at Kamshish, Tala Markaz, Menoufieh, and camped there on the right bank of the Bagourieh Canal. Between 12 and one o'clock five officers of the detachment were offered a carriage by Abd el Megid Bey Saltman, a notable of Lower Menonfish, whom they met at Kom-el-Ahmar, near Linak, to take them out pigeon shooting in Denishwai, Chibin ei-Kom Markaz, where they had gone the previous year for the same purpose. After crossing the canal, the officers- Major Pine-Coffin, Capt. Bostock, Capt. Bull, Lieut. Smithwick, and Lieut. Porter-accompanied by their guide, a native, found the carriages ready for them near Sirsineh, a village at 2 kilometres distance from the canal, and proceeded to Denishwai, accompanied by an onbashi of Shuhada police outpost.
On their arrival at the village the onbashi was sent by the officers to ask
the omdeb; Mohamed El Shadili, and some ghaffirs to accompany the party and
take care of them, but the omdeh was found to be absent. The officers now
separated, preparatory to shooting. Major Pine Coffin, Capt. Bull, and
Lieut. Smithwick went to the north of the village, and Capt. Bostock and
Lieut. Porter to the south. A native of the village, by name Hussein
Mahfouz, who possesses a great number of pigeons, warned the officers, on
their arrival, that they must not shoot pigeons as if they did so some
misfortune might happen, but the guide Abdou, who either did not hear the
warning (as he says) er did not attach any importance to the words (as the
officials think) did not communicate them to the party. A few minutes after,
a number of natives assembled south of the road, where Capt. Bostock and
Lieut. Porter were shooting, and drew near them. Capt. Bostook remarked that
they were in an ill-humour. In the meantime, a fire was seen to have broken
out in a pile of corn (girn) which was at a distance of about 100 metres
from the officers. The villagers, who numbered over
Some of the villagers, expressing their murderous intention, made signs by drawing their hands across their throats, meaning that they were going to kill them all. Major Pine- Coffin then ordered the officers to allow the assailants to take their guns in order to avoid any accident. On being handed to a villager Lieut. Porter's rifle went off and three men and a woman received a charge of small shot, which caused them slight injuries.
The officers, having nothing to defend themselves with, went ranning back towards the main road, which was 300 metres distant and the villagers followed them closely, pelting them with bricks and using their naboats, inflicting severe wounds upon them. The onbashi, who was first sent to call the omdeh, brought some ghaffirs with him; and these opposed the aggressors and defended the officers, who then sat down and asked for some water.
Major Pine-Coffin had his arm broken and received several heavy blows on the head and eyes. Capt. Ball was severely injured by naboat blows on the head, and Lieut. Smithwick had his nose broken. Captain Bostock was the first to reach the camp, a distance of 7 kilometres. The other four officers followed shortly after, in spite of their severe, wounds. Captain Bull fell several times on the way and at Sirsina The dropped entirely unconscious.
Captain Bostock, who made as fast as he could for the camp, on reaching the Bagourieh Canal, crossed it swimming in his clothing, and arrived at the camp at 4 p.m. and brought news of the outrage. A patrol then started to Denishwai to rescue the officers. On their arrival at Sirsina they found Captain Bull lying on the ground unconscious and some natives around him. They were met by nine armed natives, and the soldiers taking Sirsina for Denishwai, shots were exchanged between the two parties but no harm was done. The patrol carried the wounded officers into a carriage and returned to their camp, where they arrived at 6 p.m.
Afterwards a native of Sirsina was found killed in a flour mill. It is said he was slain in the affray by some enemy of his, and though it is also said that he was killed by the patrol who took him tor the murderer of Captain Ball, his wounds are not such as would be inflicted by the soldiers' weapons.
At 7 o'clock the same (Wednesday) evening Capt. Ball saccumbed to his wounds in the camp, to the great sorrow of all. At 8 o'clock, the Moadir of Menoufieh, Mohamed Shakri Pacha, Moberly Bey, Inspector of the Ministry. of the Interior, and the Chief of the Menoufieh Parquet, Mohamed Bey Ibrahim, arrived at the camp and opened an inquiry. Moberly Bey aated as translator between the officers and the Parquet. Mohamed Eff. Nagib El Seirafi, Ma- mour of Tala Markez; Seyd Ali, Omdeh of Kamshish, his brother, Sheikh Ali, and Mansour Eff. Hassan, Moawin of Tala Markez, were present. The same evening messages were sent by a special massenger to Cairo to the Ministry of the Interior, the Headquarters of the Army of Occupation, and to the president of the Parquet. The messenger arrived at Cairo at 6 o'clock the next morning and delivered the official papers.
On Thursday morning, the authorities proceeded to Denishwai and held an enquiry. Some officers were then summoned to that village to identify those who took part in the affray and they identified a number of them. In the evening the Adviser to the Ministry of the Interior arrived at Shibin El Kom, where he passed the night. The next morning he started for Danishwai and spent Friday evening in the police outpost of El Shuhada, near Sirsina, returning on the Saturday morning to Cairo. Yesterday evening Mr. Machell again returned to Denishwai, where he arrived at 7 p.m.
Shukri Pacha is continuing the inquiry very carefully, and receiving valuable help from
Moberly Bey.
The villagers who have been arrested up to this afternoon are 45 in number, 32 of whom were imprisoned in the Shuhada police station under the charge of Murad Eff. Moharem, Milazim Awal, and the others are kept under arrest. More arrests will assuredly be made, as the villagers who took part in the outrage were, it is believed, over a hundred in number.
The inquiry will be over in from four to six days' time and the special court will then begin its work.
The Moudir will proceed to-morrow to Tantah to interrogate Major Pine-Coffin, who was sent to hospital on Wednesday evening. Denishwai is a village under the administration of Shibin El-Kom Markaz. It is at a distance of 12 kilometres from El-Batanoun station and 7 kilometres from the Bagourieh Canal, where the British troops are encamped. The road from the camp to that village is plain and straight, about 3 metres wide, with on either side wide reaches of cultivated land some 8own with cotton and some with wheat, which is now all reaped. On both sides aleo there area number of "girns." Trees are not numerous about Denishwai, and the traveller between that village and Bagourieh Canal suffers greatly from the burning heat in the open country. The inhabitants are 3,300 in number; they are a very savage and criminal people. In the whole village there is only one small kattab and all the inhabitants are absolutely ignorant except a few of them who can read the Koran.
These savages are accustomed to eat rats and mice, which they had very delicious. They are of course very brown in coloar and many of them are quite black. They are notorious for their criminality and when one of them taunts his fellow villager he reproaches him by say ing, "you've never been in prison."
It is not out of place mention here that Sheikh Ali Maklad of Kamshesh has rendered a good services to the troops camping near his village. This gentleman has erected a large tent of his in the camp ard furnished it with sofar, chairs, carpets, and mats. He has furnished the troops gratis with many necessaries such as sheep, hens eto. The officers who are naturally very grateful for his courtesy have reported his good conduct to the Adviser at the Ministry of the Interior and Mr. Machell has expressed his thanks to him.
The Mamour of Tala Markaz, Mohamed Eff. Nagib, who knows English, is always at the disposal of the officers and he also has rendered good service in the Denihswai outrage. He was the first official to appear on the spot after the incident, which took place in Chibin El-Kom Markaz.
On Thursday last a Greek employed by the troops disappeared and was found drowned in the Bagourieh Canal. It seems that as he was going to get water he fell into the canal. The body was taken out on Saturday evening and sent to El Batanoun, where it was interred at night.
The British steamer Auchendale arrived here from England with a special consignment of cement, bridges, etc., for the Sudan Government Railways on the 8th inst, and left again yesterday for the Indian ports.
The dredger belonging to Mr. Bencini, contractor for the harbour and quays at Port Sudan, capsized and sank at Port Sudan, probably owing to the water getting in through one of the portholes which had been left open or was not properly closed. She cost about £10,000.

EXCITEMENT ON TRANSPORT.
(FROM OUR CORESPONDENT.)
Suez, Saturday.
The Russian transport Korea, towed by the S.S. Safari and the tag Meyoun, arrived at Suez yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock and anchored in the Bay.
The troops on board, who number 2,400, in spite of the filthy condition of the ship and themselves, are in good health, but very dissatisfied and excited at being detained from home for such a long time, and practically owing to the breakdown of the Kores.
When at Aden, the troops matinied, and threatened to kill the captain, the officers, and the commander-in chief, most of whom took refage in the 8.8. Safaria till towing arrangements had been completed, when the troops became calmer.
Practically the same thing happened yesterday at Saez. On arrival the troops in isted upon being towed through the Canal at once, or else they would massacre everybody on board. They seemed determined to do the worst. The same troops, when at Vladivostok, orga nised the revolt. They were finally pacified by a promise to be towed through the Canal at daybreak to-day, but owing to the sandstorm they entered in tow of the tug Robust at noon, and another tug is in readiness at Port Said to tow them to Odessa.
The Russian cruiser Lena arrived at Suez from the Far East this morning, and will enter the Canal shortly.
The Khedivial Mail liner Fayoum sailed from Suez yesterday morning taking in tow four Government lighters for Port Sudan.
A circular has been issued by the Nile Valley Block "E" Limited relative to the negotiations for an agricultural concession in the Dongola Province, to the effect that "a cable has just been received from the engineer of the company, in Khartoum, advising us that the Government grant for the concession of about 10,000 acres of agricultural land has been signed and delivered. This concession is known as the Letti Block, situated in the Province of Dongola, and lies on the east bank of the Nile, and is a strip of land 15 miles in length, and of an average width of 1 mile. At one end it comes to the river, where good acce48 is afforded for a canal and pumping station. Much of this land has been previously cultivated and is reported by our engineer as being very fertile. A subsidiary company is now being formed to place under caltivation this tract of land, the capital of which will be £100,000. The financial scheme and distribution of profits have been approved by the Government It is expected that the profits arising from the sale of cotton, dates, and the cereals grown upon this property will be large. The Nile Valley Block E Limited, will have a very substantial interest in such profits."

La Municipalité et la Police s'y distinguent, l'ane par sa rigueur ontrée, l'autre par son trop de tolérance.
La Presse a trop souvent parlé des ennais causés par les musiciens ambulants,fexploiteura d'enfants, camelots, etc., etc. pour qne pous y revenions ; mais il est an fait a constater, c'e t qu'elle s'est toojoors butée à une force d'inertie absolament incompréhensible. Il nous semble pourtant que toutes les campagnes qoi ont été faites auraient du avoir un écho auprès du gouvernement. Qu'attend-il dono?
On a trop l'habitude en Egypte de s'y prondre au dernier moment pour porter remède à un mal, et alors on tombe dans l'éxageration, ce sont des ordres, des règlements, des décrets à n'en plus finir.
Nous ne citerons qu'on fait : les damos da... demi monde pouvaient, autrefois, se livrer à toutes les excentricités, faire n'importe quoi, le gouvernement était sourd à toutes les plaintes. Pais brasquemen il s'ément, les femmes farent traqué3s, expulsées, pas op oaté ne leur ouvrit ses portes.
C'est fort bean, peut être même, laira an jour où il n'y aura plas ane prostituée en Egypte. La jeun6880 – Dieu sait si elle est pervertie de bonne heure ici — 89 rattrapera ailleurs et nous aurons de jolis scandales. Il est déjà bien difficile à une honnète femme de passer dans la rue sans être dévisagés, interpellée, suivie ; que sora-ce à ce moment là.
Quand nos gouvernants s'émeuvent, lear émotion est sincère, ils se servent de remddes souvent piros que le mal, alors qu'il serait si facile d'amener graduellement les choses au point voola.
Mais nous sortons de la question, revenons à nos musiciens camelots, etc., eto.:, il fandrait, parait-il, on accord des divers cɔnsalats pour émettre un règlement, ces derniers de Be refa seraient pas, sinon empê :ber ces Messieurs d'exercer leur noble profession, tout au moins à éviter qu'ils ne viennent nous casser les oreilles jusqu'à minuit, beure, générale ment reservée au sommeil.

FIGHTING AND SACKING AT BIELOSTOK.
ST. PETERSBURG, June 16.
A discussion took place in the Dama on the Bielostok outrage in which it was asserted that the massacre was arranged by the Government. The Duma have sent three members to investigate. The riots were renewed yesterday: thousands of peasants have arrived and are looting some 6,000 Jews camped in a forest surrounded by troops. (Reuter)
ST. PETERSBURG, June 16. The fighting and sacking continued at Bielostok last night. The suburb of Bojary has been totally burned. Eight streets were completely devastated. Many people of all classes and races have been killed or wounded. The outbreak is disastrously affecting the Bourees, resulting in a heavy fall in Russians.
Martial law has been proclaimed at Bielostok. The number of troops has been increased in the factory quarters of St. Petersburg owing to the threatened strike. (Reuter)

Colonel 8. G. Bird, D.S.O., Royal Dublin Fusiliers, having completed his four years' tenure in the command of the 1st Battalion, Alexandria, has been placed on half-pay, and has been succeeded by Lieutenant Colonel A. J. Chapman, the second in command of the battalion. The new chief of the old 102nd joined the gallant "Dubs" in May, 1884, got his company in 1892, whilst holding the adjutancy of the 2nd Battalion, then stationed in the Bombay command; was promoted major in 1901, being then on active service, and for the past two years was second in command of the 2nd Battalion. Lieutenant Colonel Chapman served on the staff in the operations for the relief of Ladysmith, the actions of Tugela Heights, and many minor affairs; action of Laing's Nek, and the fighting on the Zululand frontier. It may be recalled that he commanded the troops in the defence of Fort Itala against the commandoes led by Boths, Scholtz, Potgieter, and Oppermanover 1,500. Time and again the handful of "khakis" stopped rush after rush, and it was only after nineteen hours' hard fighting that the enemy were finally driven off with heavy loss. Chapman, who was slightly wounded, owing to the exhaustion of his slender force and the fact that his ammunition was almost expended, then evacuated the fort and retired in good order. For this notable service, he was very warmly commended in despatches, and promoted brevet lieutenant colonel by brevet. He saw further service in the Transvaal (mentioned twice in despatches, promoted brevet lieutenant colonel, Queen's medal with five clasps, King's medal with two olasps).
The vacant majority in the Dublins has been filled by the promotion of Captain R.A. Rooth, 2nd Battalion, Buttevant. Major Rooth had to serve nearly twenty-one years for the "crown" and commanded a company since June, 1894. He was adjutant of the 2nd Battalion, 1893 97, and was also adjutant of an Indian Volunteer corps, 1897 1902. After the Dublins went to Aden, at the conclusion of the Boer War, he participated in the opera tions in the Hinterland against the tribesmen, who had developed a passion for sniping the Boundary Commission and its escort,
Captain the Hon. W. A. Trefasie, Scots Guards, who was recently serving with the Egyptian Army, has retired from the army. He served with the Household troops in South Africa, and after joining the Khedive'g army, was galloper to the Sirdar.
Captain Churchill, of the Pompadours," has been formally seconded for service with the Egyptian Army.
It is stated by Reuter's that the approaching withdrawal of the 4th Battalion Worcestershire Regiment from Bgypt, where it was sent from Malta at the time of the Tabah dispute, is due solely to military reasons, and that it is in no way connected with political affairs. It is considered that the reinforcements provided by the three companies cf the 2nd Battalion Inniskilling Fasi'iers, the U Battery Royal Horse Artillery, and the Inniskilling Dragoons, have sufficiently strengthened the British garrison in Egypt, and that the presence of the 4th Battalion Worcestershire Regiment is neces- Bary no longer,
It has been decided that when the ne cessary funds are available a portion of Tidworth Barracks shall be converted for the use of a regiment of cavalry and a battery of borse artillery. These barracks were originally built to accommodate a division of infantry, but owing to the change of plans have, up to the present time, been only occupied by a brigade, the other half lying empty. In this connection it may be noted that the quarters at present occupied by the M. I. School at Bulford will be vacant by the end of July, when the latter ceases to exist. It is stated that its place may be taken by a cavalry regiment, which, if done, woald, with the force at Tidworth, provide a much-needed permanent cavalry brigade for Salisbury Plain.

THIRD SUMMER MEETING.
Saturday's racing brought the third and last Summer Meeting of the Alexandris Sporting Club to a conclusion. The races were witnessed by a comparatively large gathering, considering the advanced date of the season, and the weather being of the pleasantest, a very agreeable afternoon was passed.
As regards the racing, the greatest interest was centred in the Great Annual Handicap, which, to the surprise of most backers, fell to El Tabawi, who evidently wished to retrieve the good reputation he had lost. Certainly, El Tahawi's victory was a lucky thing for local racing as well as for the owner, for we believe the latter had got so discouraged with the consistent bad luck he has had of late that he seriously contemplated abandoning racing altogether. Shour and Valentino, between whom, it was generally conceded, the race lay, ran disappointingly although Shour very nearly got the victory, and Valentino was a good fourth. The biggest surprise of the day, however, was furnished by Rainbow, who had no difficulty whatever in winning the Maiden Pony Plate from Radium, who nevertheless ran a good pony. Suleik, on his previous day's racing, was most fancied for this race, but in the event was not even placed. Kara Aslan whipped round at the gate, otherwise he would probably have made short work of those in front of him. The Pony Handicap was practically a match between Aurelius and Bonus, Brown Boy having got left at the post, while Ulema was scratched owing to having hurt himself in the box. Aurelius once more justified the good opinion we formed of him at the outset of the season, although had Ulema entered the lists he might not have had it so much his own way. A very close finish wast provided by the Pony Handicap, in which Kara Aslan just won by a head. He was, however, disqualified in favour of Rainbow, whom he bored persistently at the end and entirely spoiled his chances of winning. Quite the best finish of the day, however, was in the Champion Scarry, the last race of the day, which ended in a dead heat between Rachid and Lahek. On the pair racing again the former proved the better horse, winning by a canter. Altoge ther, the meeting has been a most successful one and brought to a close a racing season which has not been without a good deal of interest, We have seen some good running at this last meeting, notably by Roland, Aurelius, Ulema, Saleik, and Radium.
The band of the Royal Dublin Fasiliers gave a choice selection of music during the afternoon, which was greatly appreciated.
