Ideal sailing weather, with choppy seas and stiff nomth- westerly winds, put the mettle of crews and orafts to a genuine test. The Dominion skippers obtained more points toward the cups offered in the two feature classes--those for the "P" and "R" class boats--and also continued their victories in the class of the emaller ratings. Nayada, skippered by Addision of the Royal Canadian Club, again con- quered Riowna, winner of the George Cup race at Chaumomt Bay. Cara Mia of Kingston Yacht Club, winner of the Freeman race, evened up ¢n Patricia for the plate offered in the "P> class. Alice kept the United States craft in the running by win- ning in class "L," the WatJirtown boat finishing behind the Iroquois on corrected time. Greyling, of the R.C.Y.C. and Tantrum, of Rochester, staged a stiff contest in class 5, the former coming home ahead of the Tantrum by less than half a minute. The Countess von Bernstorff posed for the cameraman as . the Leviathan pulled out of New York, taking her back to Germany. LETTERS To The Editor Opposes The O. T. A.

The O.T.A., sup- ported by bootleggers and till lately ruthlessly enforced by gun play, is not a proper solution of the liquor ques- tion. The O. T. A. is not a law of the Medes and Persians which cannot be changed. I respectfully ask the prohi- bitionists to answer the problems hereby submitted to them: 1. Prove that the Prohibition act known as the O. T. A. did not defeat the Hearst Government. 2. Prove that extravagance and the despicable tyrannical acts of the Roney-Sprachlin enforcement squad did not defeat the U. F. O. Govern- ment, 3. Prove that an unjust law has not a tendency to make people resist it but causes them to lose respect for all law and order. The O.T.A. has made liars, hypocrites and thieves of a lot of peo- ple. 4. Prove that while the Bible teaches Temperance in all things--condemns drunkenness as a fearful sin--it teaches prohibition, 5. Prove that the slogan "Banish when the vast majority of the criminals in the United States and Canada are mere youths, Would it not do more to save the boys and girls to have more religion in the homes? I.essons in honor, purity, goodness ani truth. literature, good company and clean sport? Would not this pro- gramme faithfully and prayerfully carried out lessen the number of can- didates for prison? 6. Prove that prohibition prohibits when there is less drunkenness in Roman Catholic Quebec under govérn- ment control than in Protestant On- tario with its O.T.A. The deadly home- brew and bootlegging products are re- sponsible for a lot of drunkenness. 7. Prove that the O.T.A. is not a wretched piece of class legislation. The rich man has his cellar stocked with all kinds of liquor while the poor wor ing man has to be satisfied with hi two per cent. The working men's peti- tion for a more palatable beer was met by a prompt refusal. The working men used their ballots when the chance came to overthrow the modern Phari- sees in Queen's Park, Toronto. They will now vote to replace the crank pro- hibition law, misnamed*the O.T.A, by a sane temperance law. 8. Prove that the framers of this in- famous O.T.A. did not see its injustice when in order to enforce it they tram. pled under foot a principle of British WS. 9. The murdered, adulterer, burglar, hold-up man and swindler are inno- cent in the eyes of the laws till tried and brought in by the jury before the judge in open court. The person charg- ed with a breach of this O.T.A. is guilty and has to prove his innocence before a magistrate oftentimes en- dowed with little knowledge of law. There 'was not, till' lately, a chance to] $0pasl from the decisions of this in- magistrate to a higher court. 10.

Seccombe, secretary of the Oxford Unlvérsity Boxing Club, now in Canada to visit relatives in Toronto. .He intends to visit -the heads of the universitiés mentioned while on this side of the Atlantic, with the hope of arranging the pro- posed meet. the Circle Six juniors of the Kingston City League will play an exhibition game at the Fair Grounds on Sat- urday , afternoon gt three o'clock. There will be no admission charge. It will be a good workout for both teamg and should prove an igterest- ing entertainment for the fans. Al- though no definite has been made, it is likely that the teams will change batteries or that the seniors will not use their regu- lar battery. announcement TOURNAMENT ARRANGED FOR SATURDAY AFTERNOON PLAY Through the activities of Secre- Donald and Miss Ella Spence defeat- ed Miss K. McPhail end Miss Mar. garet Black. The first set was 8-6 for 'the ultimate winners, but thelr opponents ran away with the second 1-6.

Another match between Rockwood and Kingston in the series for the Ryan trophy is scheduled for Saturday afternoon and Queen's will send three rinks to the Rockwood green. In the Price cup doubles J. F. Mc- Millan and W. Handley have won from H. W. Newman and F. L. Newman, 13-10. In the singles competition, C. Smart has won from J. F. McMillan, 16-13.

CLOSE SCORE WHEN HUSSARS LOST GAME WITH GANANOQUE Moore Pitched Wonderful Ball But Support Fell Away in the Pinches In a regular Kingston City League fixture at Gananoque on Thursday ev- ening, Major Mackenzie's Orphans de- feated 4th Hussars 2-1 in seven innings. The Hussars scored first and held their one-run lead until the fifth inning when Moore's infield support fell away badly and the Orphans grabbed! two runs. The game was called at the end of the scventh, though the Kingston crowd claimed it was still bright eu- ough to finish without troubles, The Orphans put up a great game and tought hard for their victory. heir loss to Live Wires on Mbjaday put them on their mettle and they were full of battle. Moore pitched a wonder- ful game for the Hussars and it was a hard one for him to lose. 'The soldicrs were handicapped by the absence of Gourdier from first base. Conley filled in the initial corner, but though he looked after his position, the Hussars infield, accustomed to throwing to the great beight of Gourdier, could not seem to find the grove for "Sammy." The win by Ganatiogse puts a iot more interest in the series and it 60c a -- should be a great return game when the two meet in Kingston. It is hoped to have Gourdier back on first by that time. . ATTACKS THE LATESY HOTEL PROPOSITION Joseph Nash Addresses a Meet ing in Ontario Hall on Thursday Evening. "Joe" Nash held another of his tax- payers" mass meetings in Ontario Hall on Thursday evening to discuss tae latest hotel scheme which has beea submitted to the joint hotel commuttes. Mr. Nash adserted that the new pro- position is a 'srab" of from $130,200 to $200,000 from the city's treasury. He claimed to have quotations on hoteis built in the United States casting much less per room than the proposed hotel for Kingston. He also went extensive- ly into the matter of the site saying that the Price site, proposed in the pre- liminary plans, is $40,000 dearer than the site opposite, though it is of course understood that the Price site is not by ary means decided upon but is merely taken as a starting point for computing costs, The standing of B. G. Hines, who of- fers to put nearly $100,000 of his own money into the project and take over the hotel as operator, was also discus- sed by Mr. Nash. He claimed that Mr. Hines is not listed in Bradstreet. The Utilities Commission also came in for a share of criticism from the speaker, who claimed that the large surplus should be turned over to the city at once, There were about two hundred peo- ple present at Mr. Nash's meeting. -- Lowest Price on Cherries.
