Caledonian Sports.
The entries for the Caledonian Sports on Thursday next closed on Saturday night. As will ho seen, they are very good, and include several long and short distance runners from outside. However, the local boys have made up their minds to beep the various prizes in the district, so that good contests may be looked for. A remarkable coincidence is that the total number of entries is exactly the same as last year. The pipers have already made their presence noted in the place, and as move will follow by next Wednesday’s steamer, a good gathering is expected. Following are the entries: — Maidon. —Alex. Curtis, W. Morris, F. Thomson, F. C. Bonham. 440yds.—Alick Morris, Alex. Curtis, M. Craig,' W. Roderick, D. Curtin, A. McKellar, A. W. Kirk, W. H. Harding, F. H. Somers, Luke, Ward, L. C.
