JERSEY CITY HEIGHTS.— The regular monthly shoot of the above 

 club for their silver cup took place at their new grounds, Marion, 

 N J., on the i6ib Inst., and from the follow lng score some good shoot- 

 ing was doue, especially by some of the novices. We tegiet that we 

 can only give the score In gross, as Heritage, as usual, ran off with

The Heights Club have received the challenge from ihe Essex to be 

 shoi on their grounds, Bloomingdale Road, N. J., on the 5th of next 

 month; iS im n each, 25 yards rise, 8 birds each man. The first 4 

 biros to be shot from a designated trap, one ban el. We suppose by 

 " di signal ed :: is meant two H and T traps, thetiap to be pui.ed indi- 

 cated by a ole thrown. The next 4 birds same distance, but the lite 

 of both barrels. These, we understand, are ihe new iuIcs adopted by 

 that club. We Intimated In our last that the Essex dm not mean to 

 give the matter up, and they don't. There win be a warm time, lor 

 the gentlemanly rivalry between these clubsls Intense.— J acobbtaff.

LONG ISLAND YACHT OLUB. 



THE annual races of the club were sailed in the Bay Sept. 18, 

 bringing out the largest fleet of email craft in these water* 

 this season. We were especially glad to note the strong muster of 

 cabin yachtB and on the rather meagre turn out of big t-and-bag 

 machines. The lattor included but five, though they were ail 

 good ones. Slowly but surely the handy little cabin yacht, with 

 fixed ballast, is taking the precedence of the machines in popular 

 favor and the outlook of real yachting among the junior cluba be- 

 comes more encouraging every year. Much of the success of the 

 L. 1. Y. C. ia due to the popularity of its present Commodore and 

 the liberal manner in which the matches are thrown 

 open to all comerB. Course, from club house to Hob- 

 bins' Reef buoy, thence around Fort Lafayette and to Btart- 

 eail twice over. Fifth class to turn Btake boat off Owl's Head in, 

 stead of the fort. These courses were admirably adapted both for 

 racing and for spectators. We hope to see the Long IslaDd Y. C. 

 adopt the plan of stait ng eimultautously and doing a« ay wilh the 

 slovenly custom of allowing boats to shuffle, across during a certain 

 period. Smartness about our yachtB and yacht's men is eadly 

 wanted, and lively clubs should do what they can to make seamen 

 out of dawdlers: and yachts out of machines. A start 10 one gun 

 is the next step to be taken after opening entnesto all. Such starts 

 are bound iu the long ran to displace the present sleepy methods, 

 and the L. I. Y. C. has the chance to take the itad in the matter among 

 the junior cluba and score one in ita favor thereby. The present 

 officers are more than " picknickers." Seme of them are sailors 

 and old cruisers, and we think our appeal for a seamanlike start 

 will not be in vain, There can be no harm in making a trial. The 

 Hull Y. C. recently got away seventy odd boats to single guns and 

 we can guarantee that the superior snap and (.matinees of the 

 simultaneous start will he received wilh great favcr wbtn once un- 

 derstood. Besides it will ease the work of judgeB and time ktepers, 

 make reoordB Bimpler and give the outside public » ttlltr chance 

 to follow the relative petitions cf IhejkcLtBin the is.ee. Th»
