She lell on the sheet of canvas stretched below the net. In her descent ahe struck her thigh agalnat the wooden ledge which forms the aide of the i chutes. in the crowd watching her were about two dozen women employed by Thompson Dundy, her father, Signor Antonio, and her little sister.

More Inquiries have been mads regarding camping and hunting trips than tit any previous show. The (motor canoe was out on the water again yesterday afternoon, and attracted curioH attention. It did not seem to work Very smootiily, and from general appearances the substitution of a motor for the popular and convenient paddles is hardly likely to "prove popular. One of the lively afternoon events was a canoe race between the two Canadian guides, William Harris and John Field, against G. M.

Richards, a New Yorker, who has hunted extensively in Canada, and am Indian guide. The latter confi-dentlyi expected to defeat the guides, but at the start of tho race, which was one lap around the lake, the veteran woodsmen took the lead in the first few yards, and liy long, powerful sweeps of their paddleis won the canoe race by GO feet. The afternoon fly-casting tournament was a trout fly-casting contest, right and left hand, for distance only, the weight of rod and length of leader being unrestricted, and the contest open to all. H-C. Leonard, who has already made two new records, won, with a cast of MS feet 9 inches; Hirman Hawt-s was second, with SO fee.
