CORRESPONDENCE.
(_W« do not hold ourselves responsible for opinions expressed by our correspondents], CALEDONIAN SPORTS. TO THE EDITOB. Sib, —Can you inform me—in order to decide a wager—whether or not it be correct for the winning competitor in a foot race to jump over the tape on coming in ? This was done at the Sports at Waerenga-a-hika on Monday last, by a winning competitor.— Yours, &c., Enquibeb. [The mere fact of jumping the tape on passing the winning-post does not disqualify the competitor who came in first.—En. Standabd.]
