Besides the articles given above, many on boatbuilding, canoe-

 supplement, New York, and Journal of the Franklin Institute, Phila- 

 delphia. 



ULIDIA.— As Madge after a successful career as a racer finally 

 was outbuilt and succumbed to Verve and later boats, so Verve has in 

 turn given way to newer craft, and. like Madge, found a home in 

 America. One of Verve's successful rivals. Ulidia, a newer boat, has 

 in turn been eclipsed by one still newer, and (under the present Y. R. 

 A. rule) a faster boat, and like the other two, she is to be sold, as ad- 

 vertised in another column. She has been most, successful as a prize 

 winner, her only fault being that, like all other English racers, she 

 has been outbuilt under their faulty rule, and her value as a racer in 

 English waters has depreciated, as in course of a very short time must 

 happen to her successors. Her speed and good qualities were proved 

 in her races and passages. She is strongly built and fully rigged and 

 equipped, and will make a handsome addition to the fleet cf any 

 yacht club, and we hope some day to see her in New York waters or 

 on the lakes, for which latter she is specially adapted. 



MANNINGS YACHT AGENCY.— This firm have issued a list of 

 yachts and vessels for sale, including all varieties of craft for busi- 

 ness or pleasure purposes. Their reputation is well known, many of 

 our yachts having changed hands through their aid. They are also 

 agents for the Coast Survey and other charts, the "Coa?t Pilot," 

 and nautical and yachting works generally. At their basin at Twenty- 

 sixth street, South Brooklyn, a number of yachts for sale may be 

 seen, and owners desiring t« lay up their yachts at any time can have 

 them cared for. 



NEW JERSEY Y. C— A largely-attended meeeing of the New 

 Jersey Y. C. was held at their club house, foot of Teufh strett, Hobo- 

 ken, last Thursday evening, Commodore Longstreet presiding. Mr. 

 James A. Reed and Mr. Martin V. B. Evesson, owners of catamaran 

 Nemesis, and Mr. H. W. Sagendorf, were elected members, and the 

 names of two candidates were proposed for membership. The amend- 

 ment offered at the last meeting of the club by Mr. Dil worth to Sec- 

 tion 9 of Chapter VII. of the by-laws (noticed in Forest and Stream), 

 relating to the sails, was taken from the table and that section was 

 amended so as to read, "All cabin sloops, in addition to mainsail and 

 jib, shall be allowed to carry working gaff and jib topsail, and cutters 

 shall be allowed an additional staysail, and catamarans shall be re- 

 stricted to use of jib and mainsail only." The amendment offered at 

 last meeting by Mr. Gartland to Seition 15 of Chapter V1L, relating 

 to the time required to complete a race, was taken from the table for 

 action, and that section was amended so as to read, "* * * nor shall 

 a prize be due to any class except the distance shall have been sailed 

 over by the winning yacht in its class in eight hours.'' The steam- 

 boat Blackbird has been engaged by the Regatta Committee for its 

 regatta on June .9, and will leave Fifth street dock, Hoboken, at 9:30 

 A.M., West Twenty-second street, New York, at 9:45, and Pier 8, N. 

 R., at 10 A. M. 



CAROLINE.— This little keel schooner is advertised for sale in our 

 columns this week. She is specially fitted for cruising and for a com 

 fortable family boat such as may be run at a moderate expense and 

 yet make a pleasant home for the summer.

Humphreys' Manual, enlarged and revised edition, 144 pages, 

 bound in cloth and gold, sent free upon application to the company 

 The extensive circulation of Humphreys' Homeopathic Manual hav- 

 ing rendered it a household possession, has induced the company to 

 issue a betier edition in richer and more attractive form. Not only 

 is it enriehed externally, but it has been rendered more complete as 

 a book of reference, which the purchasers of the Specifics will tiot 

 be slow to recognize. The portion treating of hygienic topics is well 

 written, admirably arranged, and renders it a thoroughly reliable 

 book for family use. Its friends, while not slow in recognizing it in 

 its newer and more attractive dress, and while grateful for the infor- 

 mation furnished in the old one, will be glad to welcome the new in 

 its better dress. A handsomely bound copy may be had upon appli- 

 cation to the company, 109 Pulton street, new York.— Adv.

FISHING RODS. 



Having been the pioneers in the manufacture and introduction of Section Bamboo Rods, we have always 

 taken great pride in securing and perfecting every improvement in order to maintain our position as the makers of 

 the very best rods. Knowing not only theoretically, but also by long experience, that a properly made round rod 

 is the only absolutely perfect rod, we have invariably refused, and still do refuse, to put our name on any but our 

 "Best" round section rods. Our prices for these round rods average only about 40 per cent, more than the prices 

 asked by any other makers, while the rods are widely known to be incomparably superior. While no hexagonal or 

 MARK, any angular) rod can be perfect, we long believed that with proper workmanship and material a really good angular 

 rod could be made. Being much easier and cheaper to make than round rods, we hoped to be able to offer to those 

 anglers who can not afford to pay the price of our "Best" round rods, a hexagonal rod that would be good and 

 serviceable at a moderate price. We are more than satisfied with the success which has attended our efforts, for we 

 are now able to furnish a hexagonal rod that is really wox - th having, and at a price which is only a trifle in advance 

 of that asked by other makers. 



In addition to the many styles of round and hexagonal Section Bamboo Bods, we wish to call the attention of anglers to our large 

 variety of fine Ash aud Lancewood and Greenheart rods. Every rod guaranteed absolutely hand made. 



If your dealer does not keep our goods in stock, or will not order them for you, send us 50 cents for 120-page illustrated catalogue.
