BOSTON Y. C. THIRD CHAMPIONSHIP RACES, 
[ped Saturday was a glorious day for yachting in Boston. A 
strong northwest wind and cool weather after the intense heat 
of the early part of the week. At noon there was a prospect of rain, 
but it soon cleared away. The prizes to be sailed for were, for yachts 
of or over 33ft , the Connor championship cup, besides a second prize 
of $20 and a third prize of $20, besides a silk flag to each yacht going 
over the course In the second elass, all under 33ft., besides the Pfaff 
cup, were two of $20 and $20 for second and third yachts, and flags 
for all who completed the course. Schooners received an allowance 
for the windward part of the course, sailing at four-fifths of their ton- 
nage. 
The courses were from off the clnb house through the Narrows, 
leaving Spectacle Island, Nix’s Mate bell buoy, Galloupe’s Island, 
George’s Island on starboard, Sound Point Beacon on port, Toddy 
Rocks and Point Allerton Buoy on starboard, Harding’s bell boat,

Adrienne wins the Connor Cup for the second time, Shadow takes 
second prize and Undine third prize. Edna takes the Pfaff Cup, Eva 
second and Kitty third. Each cup must be won three times to be re- 
tained. The first races last year were won by Shadow and Frolic, 
The second races this year were won by Adrienne and Seabird. Both 
Seabird and Frolic, being out of the club, have forfeited their claim 
to the prize, Adrienne has but one more victory'to take the Connor 
Cup. This race about finishes the season of the Boston Y, C. 
THE CARMELITA. 
4 RRS new schooner, now building at Driscoll’s yard at Greenpoint, 
has a Jong trial trip before her, as she is to sail around to San 
Francisco when completed, her owner, Mr. J. V. Coleman, being a 
resident of that city. That she will astonish the yachtsmen of the 
Pacific coast is very certain, as she is as different from the few New 
York boats now in their waters as she can well be, while she differs 
no less from the type of yachts evolved by the local builders. In 
model, proportions of beam and depth, in ballast and rig, she is the 
opposite of her future competitors, Lurline, Casca, Halcyon, Chispa, 
Nellie and the sloops, and we shall watch with great interest the 
transfer of the field of battle between the types from the Atlantic to 
the Pacific coast. sf 
The Carmelita is 79ft. 101gins. over all, 65ft. on waterline, 16ft. din. 
extreme beam, 10ft. craft, with 8ft. of freeboard. She will earry a 
mainmast of 46ft. Gin. deck to hounds, with 5fb. Gin. masthead and 
topmast of 30ft. 6in, fid to truck, the foremast being 44ft. head 5ft. 
6in. and topmast 27ft. Gin. The main boom is 47ft.. gaff 26ft., fore- 
poom 20ft., gaff 19ft. 6in The bowsprit is 12ft. outboard, jibboom 
28ft. over all and 16ft, outboard. : “id es 
The frame is of white oak, the keel moulding 10/gin. and siding 20in. 
stem siding 7in, and sternpost 8in,, tapering to 4in. at heel. The 
frames at the bow are of hackmatack in single lengths, and amid- 
pbing of white oak, double sawn, sided wen, nroulded Gin. at heels 
and 8in. at heads, the top timbers being of locust 3)gin at deck. The 
floor’ timbers are of hackmatack knees sided 4tsins., and doubled 
bolted to the keel, with galvanized iron bolts, besides the compositi u 
keel bolts. The frames are spaced 20in. centers, The keelson is

white pine 244in, square. 
The Carmelita was designed by Mr. A. Cary Smith of New York, 
and is building under his supervision. She will be the first of Mr. 
Smith’s boats in Pacific waters, but from her appearance we believe 
she will make his name as favorably known there as Mischief has in 
New York, and Harbinger and Fortuna in Boston. It is expected 
that she will be ready to sail late in October. Later on we shall give 
a description of her interior arrangements. 
YACHT RACING AT TORONTO. 
Seen guardians of the winds were very unkind to the yachtsmen of 
the Royal Canadian and Toronto clubs last week, as for several 
days they had nothing but calms for theirraces. On Saturday, Sept, 
6. the date set for the R. ©. Y. C. races on Toronto Bay, all the fleet 
were ready but there wasno wind, Both classes were started, out 
neither finished in the calm. During the race a heavy squall struck 
the fleet but didno damage, and after it passed there was not wind 
enough to finish. Im the evening the club gave an entertainment at 
their club house. - 
On Monday and Tuesday the weather was the same, but on Wednes- 
day the second class yachts were started at 11 A. M.,, Iolanthe first, 
Emma second, Surprise third. The wind was very light all day, the 
yachts carrying all canvas. When near the finish, at evening, a very 
heavy squall struck the racers, driving Surprise and Emma out into 
the lake, and they were unable for a long time to work in; but Iolan- 
the was more fortunate, being far enough in to work up to her moor- 
ings. Emma takes the Cosgrove cup and $30 cash, being the only 
Toronto yachtin. Iolanthe takes a cash prize of $100 im R. C. and $60 
T. Y. C. prize. On Wednesday the weather changed, a brisk north- 
wester giving the long-desired opportunity to the yachtsmen,
