SPORTS AT HASTINGS.
TREMBATH AND TIIE HANDICAPS, iliy Tcleiruiih.-3i)eclE:l Corrcsoonacnt.i „„ , r , Hastings, March 1. -the Hastings Cycle and Athletic Club was favoured with perfect weather for its annual gathering, held at Cornwall l'ark to-day. About 2000 spectators attended. Tile turf was a trifle dead, as Iho result of heavy rain last ii>rlit. In the athletic events Trembath was tho most notablo competitor, but, as at Napier, he was handicapped out of every, thing. To win the hundred, the 120, yards, also the 220 yards, he would have had to break evens, and -lDsec. would not have tound him a winner in the quarter uiile, whilst the 1000 yds. race was won in 2min. 13sec. The cycle evelits, though run at a disadvantage on ilie flat grass track, were splendidly contested, and produced tine finishes. One of the best items was a. big tug-of-war between a Maori team and one representing the Telegraph Department. The Maoris won Abe' final round by two inches. Chief results:tOOydsHandicap.—F.
