The semi-final round In the single canoe race waswon by E. H. Morris, of th» Harlem branch of theToun? Men's Christian Association. His opponent.Andrew W.

Hubert <students") ;.r..l E. T. Hargreave f23dStreet). Mcrris had no competitor in his trial heit.

Picturesque, features of the show not noted here-tofore are the portable wigwams on the island andat the end of the gallery, and the rustic arborsbuilt of cedar. Indians, clad in buckskin, withbright colored bead trimming and gey feathers, arekept busy all day ajalMHnf the little folks aroundthe lake In their canoes.

Outside of the exhibits the great attraction of the•how is that made by the Young Men's Christian'.Association. The water sports, canoe races, tiltingcontests, calisthenics, gymnasium work and fencingare all held under its supervision. Over one thousandmen and boys of the Young Men's Christian Asso-ciation are entered In these contests.It i«, of course, to be expected that at a sports-

man's show guns would be largely exhibited. They•re of all kinds, e'.zea and prices. One of the mostInteresting Is a three-barrel gun from West Vir-jrlnta. This gun has two shot barrels and one riflebarrel, so that th* hunter can use it for any classof gome It is remarkably light in weight, andcosts from $65 to toW The gun breaks in two. like

\u25a0tiny ordinary breechloader, has a safety locking de-vice en the trigger, one trigger operating ill threebarrels, a release lever throwing the riflebarrel intoaction. Separate Eights are provided for the shot-gun and rifle barrels.

There are all sorts of conveniences provided fortiw» camper-out. Among these, are telescopic cotbeds wi\«ch. when folded, take up a space of M by7 by 6 inches only. Such a bed might also be handyfor use in a Harlem flat.

• There are no boats In the show, excepting a fleetof canoes and flat bottom rowing skiffs and thelittle "Buster Brown." Up in the gallery, however.Is shown what Is called a hand nawei motor. Theboat has the usual propeller and shaft, connectedby a .universal Joint to the motor, which consistsof a hand lever, working through the segment <">f acircle, baekwnrd and forward, opfr&ted by saeansof a clutch. The motor is rfver^ed by throwing aemail reverse lever into fiction. The whole outfitcomplete weigh? about seventy pounds, costs $20and can be Installed In any rowbnat.

There ?*re a number of motorcycles exhibited atthe ehov ,both in the slnrl. and tandem style, anovelty be'ng one from Germany that has twocylinders, one vertical »nd •!'•••• inclined in frontof it. Interesting features of its obstruction arethat its ignition Is by magneto, and that Ithas aWit drive. Two brake* a^e fin. I. a band brake onthe huh and what might be called a rim brakeoperating on a secondary rim Ina single cylindermodel 01 th.- same type shorn1n the valves are me-chanically opercted.tr-r<".-t The summary follows:

The Canadian Pacific exhibit, an oldtime favoritein New York. Is more interesting thsn ever. Itwillhe found In the mwlliaal corner of the Garden.Fourth avenue end. adjoining the All Ijong Islandexhibit. The feature of the Canadian Pacific ex-hibit is a hunter's log cabin which has seen fiveyears of actual use in the wilds of the North. Itis Ml with cedar shakes. An open kitchen,with a complete cooking outfit, is installed in a!ean-to alongside theVabin.

Among the trophies of the chase is a moose headwhich Is romarlcable for Its size, the' antlers meas-uring 75 inches across. An OJlbway bark canoe,

such us is used by the Indians, lies upturned onthe roof of the cabin, while an Esquimau skin kyakVar.gs from the balcony tront above the cabin.

Two Indian tepees are. shown. One is the only

buffalo skin tepee in existence, and probably thelast one that will be made, because buffalo skinsare now too scarce and high priced to be used for

.tepee making. The exhibit Is rounded out by viewsof the Canadian Pacific country, hundreds of DeltaCf all sizes, and as fine a collection of the heads ofRocky Mountain sheep as was ever gathered to-

gether.The fly casting contests, which are the only feat-

ures of the Sportsmen's Show that have lastedfrom Its Inception, fourteen years ago. and whichwere omitted last year, attract a great gallery ofSpectators every afternoon and evening. Some ofthe most famous fly casters In the world areentered in the contests, i:nd it is expected somerecords willbe broken.

TOURING BOARD MEETS.

Many New York .inri ''hicaso billiard experts nresanguine that Demarest will win the title. Whilethey have a high opinion of i'onklin and experthim to make .1 clever stend. they are Inclined t.ipin their faith to Demarest, whose game this year

has been of a superior quality. For thnt matter.the billiard enthusiasts are not alone in their goodopinion as t.i Ima rest's ability, as there :ir- manystudents of the game who believe that be Is thecoming player of the United Sfntes.

Demarest is only nineteen y-ars of age. nn<l theyoungest In • sperienc* who lias attempted to winthe national championship. He Is about the sameage as Willie Hoppe, and hi* position in amateurbilliards la somewhat analogous to that of Hoppeamong the professionals. When Ora Hornlngstarwas In Chicago practising with Demarest prior tothe recent world's championship match with Sut-ton. the young Chlc.agoan gave an Idea of his speedby the fine average thai he made in the 1R.2 game.

The Impression prevails that J. Ferdinand Pog.genhurg, the Uederkrana Club player. is strongerin his games this winter than he has been for along time. it Is his great ambition to win the title.Ho was not always had the beat of luck when play-Ing for It, and ifnothing occurs to mar his chanc< sthis time his friends believe that he will make th.-best showing in his career as an amateur. Poggen-burg's easy style and optimistic disposition are bothgreatly .11 his favor. It takes more to disconcerthim than it does some contestants tor the cham-pionship, and he can face a. bad break of the ballswith more equanimity than others of the hiuh classamateurs.

1: W. Gardner, the Passalc (N.J.) . -m. la j.

-n-•other of the six contestants who will begin th-series in good form. Gardner's steadiness Is wellKnown, and perhaps no one entered cart follow anopponent more persistently to the score He haswon other championship* largely by his ability tomaintain a steady pace against any which might beset by his opponents, and he has frequently cutdown long lead* by Ills steadiness under conditionsthat would have daunted a player with 1.--.* confi-dence In his own ability.

Conklln. the othei Chicago player, must not beoverlooked, as he is playing a good game this win-ter, and if link condescend* to run a bit his wavIn Ihe matches next week he will be a dangerousopponent for every man whom be meets ft waath.- doughty Conklln who. in the daya of

Outlook Bright for Interesting SportThis Season.

The •\u25a0\u25a0•;:. l.- baseball season is hardly rr>or<* thanfour week* off, nn.i the candidates are now hard at

The outlook at Yale Is fairly encouraging. Themembers of last year's nln» who are eligible toplay this season are: Klnney. third base; T. Jonesand Wylie. catchers; Camp, second base; Madden.left field, and Meyer. Parsons and Pratt, pit.-hers.Four men have been lost by graduation- O'Brien,shortstop: Jn< kson, first base, and Smith and Huls-kamp, fielders. These positions can be satisfactor-ily filled by list year's substitutes. The burden ofthe pitching will probably fall upon Meyer andParsons, who should re effective this year with* theexperience of last \u25a0 son.

Princeton has also lost four men in Reid. Bart,Doyle and Byrani The last named was a brilliantpitcher, and his loss willha felt, but Heyntger, the"find" of last season, who hail th» Yale batsmencompletely at h\.< mercy, should fin the gap. ifagood man can be developed to help him out. Cap-tain Cooney ha* a good nucleus in last year'schampionship team to work on and a strong nineis itkelj to be developed. Hnrlan. Eddie Dillon andMcLean, who made such a strong out field list year,•are eligible agate, as are also Vaughn, at secondbase .and Bides nt third base. Reid's place atshortstop and Bard's place at first base are reallythe only ones besides a pitcher or two, which willhave to be filled, as Captain Cooney will be behindth.- bat. with L. Doyle to help him out T>. H.Doyle, the clever pitcher of last year, will actas head coach.

Pennsylvania has most of last year's team topick from, and lias high hopes. The nine finishedfourth last year, and should do better this season.The men wen a nervous and erratic lot who keptthe university In a state of constant apprehensionThey beat the We? teams, and lost to the smallones in a way that kept every one guessing. Theywould have been a much better nine if they hadall known the. game, and this season they shouldbe thoroughly drilled In the rudiments and inbaitln" The outlook is also bright at CornellBrown and Amherst. while Columbia may also de-velop a strong team, so that the coming seasonIs sure to provide plenty of high class and Inter-esting sport.
