PETREL.— From several sources toe hear that Mr Hyslop's little 

 6-ton cutter Petrel, has been showing very great speed during the 

 recent Seavanhaka cruise. She astonished tire beholders by the way 

 she outsailed all her class and even held yachts several times her 

 tonnage iu good working winds. This cutter is 83ft. over all. 23ft. 

 load line, 8ft. beam 4Wft. deep, keel and outside lead. Ballast all 

 told 4V4-tons. Gutber-flg with forestay carried out two feet beyond 

 the stem on a short bowsprit over which the regular jibboom slides 

 in a withe. The Petrel lias the honor of being the first perfect 

 wave line design both in her lines and areas. She was built in 18J6, 

 her owner having independent! v arrived at the wave-area theory by- 

 systematic experiments and investigations before the theory was 

 propounded by Mr. Colin Archer abroad. 



OSWEGO Y. C— The bi ttual matches of the club, 



open to all, have been ftxed for Aug. 82. Races for yachts over ten 

 tons. Prizes*! 50, ■ Sever al Canadian yachts are ex- 



pected. Thein.v. famouslittfc Cricket has been off on a sixty-mde 

 cruise-recently to Kingston, Canada, with her owner and four pas- 

 sengers. Light winds across, but on the return voyage, going to the 

 westward of the Mam Ducks, a. &*esb wind was encountered with 

 quite a nasi. v sea. Cricket behaved very well, and left big coasters 

 far in her wake on the passage. She was inspected by Kingston 

 yachtsmen who were wed pleased with her neat fittings. 



NEW SHARPIE.— The new sharpie Dolly, built by Thos. Clapham 

 for James A. Stebbins of New Yoi-k, arrived at Oswego en route to 

 Hub island July 10. She sailed up the river from New York to Al- 



igth is 33ft.:

 ger and can spread :J."jUy.K canvas. She i- 

 which is a little forward of the center, is IS 

 of cobblestone for ballast. She will have i

CUTTERS.— As soon as the Lapwing is out of the hands of 

 Lawley & Son. Citv Point, Boston, another cutter like her is to be 

 comjieuced. All hands in Boston are quickly ta.king to the. cutter rig, 

 no matter what the model of then- boats. Mcitanus & Son are 

 giving Mr. Greely Curtis's Dream a cutter suit, also a new lit for the 

 peerless Maggie. 



ACTEA.— This Boston schooner arrived off Cowes, Isle of Wight, 

 June 19, after a passage of twenty-four days. Her owner, Mr. David 

 Sears, and guests are on board. 



DORCHESTER YACHT CLUB.— The regatta committee have de- 

 cided upon the following fixtures: August 7, August 22, and Septem 

 her 6. Championship matches for club cat rigs, September 16, races 

 open to all e ic rigs. Etitries should be made to Louis M. Clark, Sec- 

 retary, 80 Kilby street, Boston. 



CART BEFORE THE HORSE.— Schooner Montauk shifts big, 

 baggy jib for jib and staysail when cruising, but bends the bag again 

 for a race. Is it possible that in some quarters old fogyism will not 

 yet acknowledge staysail and jib a racing rig after the innumerable 

 demonstrations in its favor? 



NEW BEDFORD Y. C— Has been on its annual cruise in Narra- 

 gausett Bay for a week, visiting Newport, Rocky Point, Bristol, Fall 

 River and other ports of interest. The fleet included schooner Indo 

 lent, sloops Starling, Josie, Whistler, Adrian, Painter, Nixie, Sadie, 

 Bonnie and Polly. 



NARRAGANSETT Y. C— Recent election of this Newport organi- 

 zation resulted as follows: Commodore, ex-Gov. Henry Lippitt; Vice- 

 Commodore, J Rear-Commodore, Joseph P. Earle; Secretary, 



Geo. Lewis Gower: Treasurer, Chas. Warren Lippitt. Twenty yachts 

 compose the squadron. 



THIEVES.— Quincy Y. C. offers reward for conviction of river 

 thieves or those who damage yachts at their moorings. Others 

 should follow suit. We must say that we have been singularly free 

 from such rascals so far in and about New York. 



CHICAGO YACHT CLUB.— Idler sailed alone over the fifteen mile 

 course, July 11, for the Fisher Cup, which she had failed to take— 

 the club regatta not finishing within the seven hour limit. She made 

 the course m 4h. 10m. 



REFORM ON THE LAKES.— Mr. Jas. George, of Toronto, has 

 given his sloop a keel with an 1,8001b. shoe, a housing topmast, square- 

 headed topsail and other sea-going fittings. The yacht is reported 

 much improved. 



BUFFALO Y. C— A match was sailed July 18, over a five mile 

 course from club house to Sand Catch and return between the 

 sloops Turk. T. P. Frank, and Telephone, H. B. Doyle. Turk won by 

 10m. 



APPROPRIATE REMARK.— That, the keel boat Maggie should beat 

 the Hera so badly, and sail with such a centerboard as Lndine, shows 

 the stuff she is made of.— So. Boston Inquirer. 



ROYAL CANOE CLUB.— This parent organization has six hundred 

 members, with the Prince of Wales as Commodore, and the "father 

 of the sport" J. Macgregoras Captain. 



TORONTO Y. C— Capt. Murray has given the club a cup, value 

 $250, open to yachts of the club, Aug. 12. We hope to see a good 

 muster. 



CHICAGO Y. C— Club burgee is a swallow tail, red field, blue 

 diagonal bar with C. Y. C. in white letters. 



PUBLISHER'S DEPARTMENT. 



Chas. J. Godfrey. — Attention is called to the advertisement of 

 Chas. J. Godf rev, importer and dealer in guns, rifles and revolvers. 

 Mr. Godfrey is one of the older members of the gun trade, and sports- 

 men will do well to examine his stock of goods.

 Candy street, Exeter. England, 



C. F. L., Cincinnaii.— Sometime since I received from your house 

 "Hili's Management and Diseases of the Dog," and it proved to be 

 just what I wanted. I now want to get a similar bootc on hoises, 

 their care and treatment in health and disease. Please advise which

Harrod's Creek.— 1. What is the best bait for the Alabama bass, 

 called there trout, for fishing in September and October? 2. What 

 is a good bait for blue catfish? 3. What is a good bait for perch? 

 Ans. 1. Try the "bonnet worm," found in the head or pod of the 

 yellow pond lilv, minnow, and, better yet are the tails of crawfish. 

 2. Minnows, or pieces of beef. 3. Worms, grubs, grasshoppers or 



R. M. C, P eakesX Roads, Va.— Please state what colors are admis- 

 sible in the greyhound, and give authority? Ans. Stonehenge says: 

 "The colors preferred are black and red, or fawn wdtli black muzzles. 



laci i m is verv rarely seen, but almost every other color is occa- 

 "v met with. White greyhounds are by many disliked, being 

 cons.dered delicate; but I do not know that this objection is rounaed 

 upon reliable premises. The brindle color is also supposed, without 

 reason, to be a mark of the bulldog cross, as I am sadsfied it existed 

 before thert is any evidence of that cross having been used." 



J. E. W., Manchester, N. H.— A controversy has arisen among the 

 members of tue Manchester Shooting Club, and they appeal to you 

 for a decision. The club offers a prize to be contended for with 



i i ege of re-entry. A member enters and shoots his score but is not 

 virh ihe r, suit, and re-enters several limes, claimirg that 

 he can elect the highest score made. The other parties claim that 

 he must take the last score made, the fact that he re-enters debars 

 him from using any former score. Ans. In the absence of any 

 specific rule to the contrary, the shooter's highest scoie must be 

 counted. It makes no difference whether it be ids first or his last. 



C. C. I., Peoria, 111.— A party of three intends making a trip to 

 Iowa or Southern Minnesota in the latter half of August for a prairie 

 chicken hunt. Can you recommend us any favorite place where 

 clucks are most abundant? Is the game law out on chickens in both 

 States on the loth of August? Is it lawful to ship game out of State, 

 sav, for instance, a person would like to ship a few dead birds to 

 friends at home? Would you recommend a person or party to camp 

 it, or try and procure board and lodging ■■■. ii 1 1 •'■ v ■; < s : Acs J. i-io 

 to Albert. Lea. Minn., which is a good central point from which to go 

 out in almost any direction. 2. The law on chickens is off in Iowa
