Major Delmar clung to the terrific pace sot by the automobile and the run- | ner for the first half with wonderful stamina; and when the timers noted 1.00 for the half, there was hope that he would hang up another record. ———— CHOOSES W.

Members of the Committee of Arrangements were astounded. Their’ wits were still at random when they were asked to explain. They made:e brave attempt, with the following ludicrous result: Francis C. Stewart, the Yacht Club Secretary—It's all my fault, ~ see, I invited Sir Thomas last Friday night. I did not know Mr. Hoyt promised President Roosevelt not to have any other honorary guests at ‘the banquet. Colgate Hoyt, Chairman of the club's Board of Governors—It’s a dreeen. Not a thing in it. Of course we do not want any other guest of honor, Wo ~ never thought of having any others, The name of Sir Thomas was neyer ~ mentioned, Sir Thomas has not been invited, Secretary Loeb then made his first oificial exp'anation, He «aid: « “I arranged with Mr. Hoyt that no invitation should be sent to Sir © ‘Thomas. Mr. Hoyt assured me that no invitation had been issued. Upon: my own responsibility I informed Mr. Hoyt that if Sir Thomas was, to be’ guest the President would probably decline the invitation.” After this the entire dramatis personae drew a long breath, but they had more than half recovered from their verbal acrobatics Mr, velt sent them the latest announcement, that if Sir Thomas does not: the banquet he will not—#o there!

The,P dent when he accepted the invitation understood that it was Rot © the nature of a public function, He had refused invitations to dinners several thmes recently and he did not see his way clear
