THE ROYAL RINK.
Sports’ night is proving a great institution at the Royal Rink, the attendance being unusually large for that particular programme. The fourth series of the Royal One Mile Handicap was won by Mr. Harvey, last Friday, off the 60 yards mark, after an exciting finish with Mr. Christian, who unfortunately sturiibled in the sixteenth lap. The winners of the four heats will compete tomorrow night, and the winner will be qualified to compete for the Royal Mile Championship Race for a valuable cup at the end of the season. A grand fancy dress skating carnival is to be held on Tuesday, May 30, and arrangements are well in hand. It promises to eclipse all previous functions of a similar nature yet held both in brilliancy and novelty. Further particulars will appear later. Valuable prizes are to be presented for the competitions and can be seen at the Rink.
