There was only one thing that went wrong with the evening's events, and that was not the fault of the band boys.

The 1885 championship race that was to have taken place between Virg Saunders, John Fanning and Lev Hue was called off because of the illness of Virg Sanders. He has been feeling bad for several weeks and his doctor forbade him going into a race of that kind. If he feels well enough the race may be pulled off the latter part of the week. There was but one race to teke the place of this one. It was between Frank Peck, Phipps, Fanning, Fouch, Reddick and Howe.

Two miles was the distance. Peck gave the field two laps at the start and then beat them out. House finished second. The concert given by the band was excellent and heartily enjoyed by the many spectators. Tonight they will give another concert as good as that one of last night.

Another big event will be the championship race between Vannie McMillan and Frank Peck. These two boys are considered the fastest in the city and tonight will decide which is the better of the two. Tomorrow night will take place the big masquerade and a large number of young people have already signified their willingness to take part. A prize will be offered to the funniest costume. his death.

CLINTON MOURNS THIS TEACHER. The regular meeting of the Laetum Whist Club will not be held this week on account of Christmas, but will meet the first week In January at the home of Mrs. Breskow, 245 E- Herkimer street. One of the most charming affatrs of the season and one of the prettiest affairs ever given at the Country Club was the cotillion on Monday night-Music for the affair was furnished by the. Ashton orchestra of Bloomington and was made especially beautiful by the addition of a large harp.

Every detail of the affair was perfectly arranged. George Knnis was the cotillion leader. Twelve figures were danced and they were all original and very attractive. Those present from out of the city were: Miss Julia Hodge of Bloomington. the guest of Miss Emma Ewing: Miss Madeiene.Kunk of Bloomington, the guest of Miss Armstrong, and Mr.

and Mrs. Dwlght Funk of Bloomington. with George Ennis; Mr. Rust of Champaign and Mr. Lamphier.

C. A. met yesterday morning and confirmed the selection of Miss ilollie Grubel as physical director. Several days ago It was announced that Miss Grubel had been offered the position. At present she Is director of physical culture in the public schools of the city.

She will at once resign her work there and will be ready by the first of January to devote all of her time to thti work of the Y. W. C. A. Bhe will have an abundance of work lo keep her well employed.

So great Is the interest being taken In the movement for physical culture that there is a likelihood that the organization will lease both the first and the second floors of the Bullard building. Originally the intention was to use only the first floor and basement Now the plan Is. if money Is subscribed, and there is every reason to believe that there will be. that both floors and the basement will be used. If this plan is successful, the entire "first floor will be converted into a large gymnasium.

Miss Carrie Powers and Miss Broad will go to Chicago this week to consult with authorities there In regard to getting a competent secretary. At present practically ten life memberships, valued at $100 have been secured. In addition there are 57 of 'the ti memberships, and 225 of the 11 ones. J. EL, HALL Clothier 159 E.
