On Thursday the Orillia cup race was sailed, 'pro forma, for it 

 had really been lost and won on the day of the big blow, and as 

 Mac, Chum and Mona had left camp when the race started, Mab 

 had nothing to heat but the old Inez, Mr. P. McCallum. Mab 

 took 2.40 to sail the race m a light wind, and beat her competitor 

 by about two miles. The lead Mab secured in the two rounds 

 sailed on the day of the storm was, however, such as to have in- 

 sured her the race in all human probability, had it not been 

 stopped. Mr. Archibald not only sailed very pluckily, heating a 

 faster boat by good handling and a good working rig, but he faced 

 a disaster which would have taken the heart out 'of most men, 

 ami afterward managed in one day, to get his boat well re- 

 paired and into camp in fit order to win a race. His success is 

 well deserved. 



In all 74 members and 230 guests registered at the camp during 

 the two weeks, and the camp was a pleasant one in Spite of the 

 tremendous storms, the rtiin and the fact that there was a great, 

 deal of physical illness and mental depression. To a far greater 

 extent than has perhaps ever been known before, the work of 

 preparing for and carrying through this meet has fallen upon the 

 vice-commodore, Mr. N. J. White, and the purser, Mr. C. M. Whit- 

 law, and they fulfilled their arduous duties In a manner that was 

 admirable. 



Under the new record rule only two men gained a place in it, 

 W. G. MacKendrick coining first with 18 points out of a possible 

 30, H. MacKendrick second with 17 points.

CORINTHIAN Y. C. SWEEPSTAKES, AUG. 11. 



FOR a second time the Corinthian Y. O. of New York has been 

 specially fortunate in the weather and other conditions for 

 its forty-foot sweepstakes, and, as in 1889, it has contributed to 

 the racing calendar one of the most striking events of the year. 

 The race sailed off Newport on Monday of last week is specially 

 interesting in comparison with its predecessor of last year. The 

 course and the weather conditions were as nearly the same as pos- 

 sible; three legs of knots each, making a beat against a mod- 

 erate S. W. wind, a run, and a reach home in a freshening breeze. 

 This year the starters were less by one than last, Tomahawk being 

 withdrawn with her change of ownership, while of the seven 

 which started only three were old boats. Of the eight starters of 

 last year, only Minerva, Liris and Mariquita came to the line; of 

 the others, Gorilla is laid up, Tomahawk was sold, as stated, after 

 her entry by Mr. Morgan, and Pappoose, Helen and Alice are not 

 in with Gossoon and Minerva. 



Of the ne w boats, all designed by Mr. Burgess, the best, Gossoon, 

 is a keel craft, Ventura being a very deep and narrow center- 

 board, Moccasin a less extreme craft, and Choctaw a counterpart 

 of the modern compromise type best represented by Nymph and 

 Verena. 



The races of the Eastern Y. C. and the New York Y. C. cruise 

 have narrowed the question of supremacy in the 10ft. class down 

 to two boats— Minerva, the champion of last year, and her newer 

 Yankee rival, Gossoon; so that no one was surprised to find that 

 in spite of Minerva's delays and misfortunes she shared with 

 Gossoon the honors of the day. 



The entry fee was the same as last year, $100, with $25 forfeit 

 for those withdrawing after entry, which made a total of $725, of 

 which the club took S72.50, leaving three prizes of 60, 18 and 12 per 

 cent., or £435, $130 and $87. The race was in charge of the regatta 

 committee of the Corinthian Y. C: Messrs. Eben B. Clark, W. H. 

 Plummer, Wm. Gardner ar.d C. S. Davison. The course was from 

 off Brenton's Reef lightship, the first leg of the 25 knot triangle 

 being toward Point Judith and nearly to windward. After the 

 final race of the New York cruise all the racers hauled out to 

 paint and make special preparations for this important race, and 

 by Monday morning they w r ere at the line in fine form. 



The first gun was fired at 11:56:55, with the start at 10m. later, 

 5m. being given to cross the line. Capt. Charles Barr sailed Min- 

 erva, with Capt. John Barr as mate, while Mr. Burgess sailed on 

 board Ventura, her owner steering. Minerva, like all the others, 

 had set her large club, but after the preparatory gun she at- 

 tempted to shift to her second club and got into serious trouble 

 with some of her topmast gear. She finally started with a heavy 

 handicap, carrying her big clubtopsail. The yachts crossed on 

 starboard tack, Gossoon first, with Liris, Mariquita and Moccasin 

 in line close astern of her. Choctaw, with a working topsail 

 set under her club, came a distance astern, and Ventura, with no 

 topsail, was close on the handicap time. Minerva for once was 



last of all, having a handicap of 5m. 10s. at the start. The times 

 were: 



Start 11 56 55 Choctaw 11 59 01 



Gossoon 11 57 04 Vcutura 12 01 20 



Liris 11 57 17 Handicap 12 01 55 



Mariquita 11 57 24 Minerva 12 07 05 



Moccasin .11 57 36 



Last year, with the same breeze, the leaders held off shore on 

 starboard tack for all the early part of the windward work, while 

 the four boats that worked down the Narragansett shore, Gor- 

 rilla, Pappoose, Alice and Helen, gained considerablv on them by 

 stronger winds. This year the fleet set out on the offshore tack, 

 apparently with the intention of holding it, but when Minerva 

 finally crossed she took the inshore tack at once. Even with the 

 handicap the others did not propose to trust her far out of sight. 

 Ventura tacked after her, and soon all the rest followed. The 

 wind was freshening, and though she set a baby at the start, Liris 

 soon took it in, none of the others carrying jiptopsails. Choctaw 

 soon struck her clubtopsail, leaving the thimbleneader set, while 

 Minerva found her big club too much for her and sent it down, 

 replacing it by a thimbleheader, with some loss of time. Gossoon 

 was leaving the pack to windward, while Minerva was coming up 

 from the rear. Moccasin came to grief earl v in the race, being 

 disabled in her gear and turning for home. Before the first mark 

 was reached she passed Ventura and Choctaw in succession, and 

 pulled up well on the leaders, having made nearly 4m. on Gos- 

 soon in actual time in a distance of 8 mites. Gossoon had gone 

 well clear of the boats that crossed the line with her, but Mari- 

 quita was making a good race and beating Liris. The center- 

 boarders were not in the windward work with the keel craft, 

 being very badly beaten as the following times show: 



Time at Time over 

 mark. 1st leg. 



Gossoon 1 30 &5 1 33 31 



Mariquita 1 31 34 1 34 10 



Liris 1 33 43 1 36 26 



Minerva 1 36 48 1 29 43 



Ventura 1 42 40 1 41 20 



Choctaw 1 47 18 1 48 17 



Thus Minerva, had gained 3m. 48s. on the Gossoon, 4m. 27s. on 

 Mariquita, 6m. 43s. on Liris, 11m. 37s. on Ventura, and 18m. 34s on 

 Choctaw. 



The next 8 miles was run with booms to port and spiuakers set. 

 save that Minerva started with a balloon jibtopsail, not breaking 

 out her spinaker until 20m. had passed, though she set her large 

 club again. Ventura also set a clubtopsail, leaving only Choctaw 

 with a thimbleheader up. The second mark was timed: 



Time at Time over 

 2d mark. 2d leg. 



Gossoon 2 25 39 0 55 04 



Mariquita 2 26 18 0 54 44

Minerva 2 32 06 0 55 18 



Ventura 2 43 06 1 00 26 



Choctaw 2 43 56 0 56 38 



Down wind Liris had done the best work, though it was a 

 matter of seconds among the keel boats, and of minutes between 

 them and the centerboards. Before the second mark was reached 

 spinakers came in, and at the turn the yachts jibed to starboard. 

 On the reach home Gossoon and Mariquita set intermediate jib- 

 topsails. Gossoon holding on the finish, while Mariquita took in 

 hers about half way home. Liris and Choctaw carried only lower 

 headsails, but. Minerva set her small jibtopsail on the last half of 

 the leg. The times over the leg were: 



Gossoon 48 29 Minerva 49 06 



Mariquita 48 24 Ventura 49 50 



Liris 48 03 Choctaw 47 46 



Choctaw made the best time on the reach, passing Ventura, but 

 this did not save her from a very bad beating. The official times 

 were:

Thus Gossoon beats Minerva 28s., Mariquita Im.

So far as its technical merits arc concerned the race belongs to 

 Minerva, as she practically finished with Gossoon after giving her 

 5m. at the start. Thus far the result of the races on this side of 

 the Cape have gone to disprove the conclusions drawn from Gos- 

 soon's performances at Marblehead, and to show that if she is to 

 score any decided victory over Minerva when the score is made 

 up at the end of the season she will have to travel faster than 

 she has done of late. 



Liris 3m. 



BEVERLY Y. C. 



THE 103d race, first open race of the season, was sailed off Mar- 

 blehead Rock, Aug. 17. Course for first and second classes, 

 10 miles to windward and return; for third class, 5 miles to wind- 

 ward and return. 



The day opened with a good northerly breeze, hut it died out 

 and hauled round to the eastward, till finally the judges gave the 

 course S.S.E., just 15m. after advertised time. 



The wind was then a very gentle breeze from S.S.E.; 5m. later 

 the first class, 3fl to 40ft. waterline, started. Minerva keeping up 

 her record by making a beautiful start; Mariquita was next, but 

 was bothered by Augusta, a second class sloop, who had got into 

 trouble right on the line. Gossoon was third at the start, Ventura 

 bringing up the rear. 



Minerva seemed to hold a little the best wind. Gossoon to foot a 

 trifle the faster. It was a nip and tuck race, till Minerva figured 

 she could fetch the mark and tacked to the eastward, fetching 

 the mark. This, of course, put the Gossoon behind, as Mariquita 

 had followed in Minerva's wake and took second place. The large 

 number of steamers and tugs which were on hand watching the 

 squadron of evolution made it difficult to locate the tug serving as 

 turning point. 



Had not Gossoon overstood, she and Minerva would have 

 reached mark very nearly together. Ventura early in the race 

 broke her bobstay and withdrew. 



Boats were timed at outer mark: Minerva 1:54:45, Mariquita 

 2:03:05, Gossoon 2:08:30. 



On the run home the wind increased till finish was was made in 

 a good breeze. Gossoon heat Minerva 28s. and Mariquita 65s. on 

 the run. 



The result in the third class was a surprise to all and the result 

 of a bad fluke. The entry included everything of any note except 

 the new Mildred, and almost every boat of note from 21 to 30ft. 



The large majority of the boats stood to the southward and 

 westward, Saladin, Hawk, Shark, Harbinger and Alrnira taking 

 the lead. For a long hitch on first tack Harbingor and Almira 

 fully held Saladin, while Hawk and Shark, further to southward, 

 were in a very good place; and when Saladin went on starboard 

 tack off Nahant, followed by Harbinger, Hawk, Shark and Al- 

 mira were well ahead, but to leeward; they had decidedly over- 

 stood mark; and besides wind inshore was lighter and continually 

 heading them off. Saladin and Harbinger went for mark, appa- 

 rently with no one to fear; but here came in the fluke— a small 

 white 'sloop was seen coming in from the eastward and well ahead; 

 it turned out to be the 25ft. boat White Fawn, who rounded mark 

 2:11:20. Allowing for the difference in start Gossoon had beaten 

 her only 50s. actual time in'a 10 mile beat to windward. 



She had tacked to the eastward with Elite and Sprite, and got 

 a tremendous slant, letting her fetch up well on to the mark in 

 one long starboard tack. 



Some of the other boats were timed as follows: 



Saladin 2 18 01 Almira 2 44 45 



Miguon 2 26 25 Hawk 2 46 08 



Harbinger 2 27 53 Moondyne 2 57 38 



Sprite 2 37 40 Chieftain 2 58 55 



Shark 2 44 10 



In the third class keels perhaps the fairest race of the day was 

 sailed. All the class stood to the eastward an(l all got the favor- 

 able slant. Hornet won, as was expected, but Kraken gave her a 

 good race. 



In the third class centerboards very few of the cats entered 

 against the jib and mainsails, only the Burgess cat Wanda, the 

 Hutchings boat Edith and the two Cape cats, Madge and Kiowa, 

 starting against all the crack jib and mainsails on the bay. The 

 light air seemed to settle it in favor of the jib and mainsails be- 

 fore the start. 



Tom Cat and Wanda got the best of the start, Kiowa bringing 

 up the rear. The fleet at once went on port tack and made several 

 hitches along Tinker's Island, except Tom Cat and Eureka, who 

 were having a hot fight a little further east, and rather in the lead 

 of the fleet. Numbers of the boats soon found the pace too hot 

 and dropped out. Kiowa led past outer end of Tinker's Island, 

 closely pressed by Edith, who was proving formidable, and fol- 

 lowed by Madge, who was not in her best form, and the jib and 

 mainsail Gleam. 



At this time Wanda was well to leeward, and tacked to eastward 



fluke-hunting, getting it with a vengeance, as after a long star- 

 hoard tack she suddenly found herself within a quarter of a mile 

 of tne turning point, which she rounded about a minute and a 

 half ahead of Eureka and five minutes ahead of 8Tom |Cat. The 

 latter two boats, followed by Trifle, had tacked east and got the 

 advantage of the fluke, but not as much as Wanda. 



Gleam in the meantime had left the others and gone east. She 

 came home ahead of Trifle, but crossed wrong side of stake boat, 

 and it is uncertain whpfher or no she rounded the outer mark. In 

 the meantime both Edith and Kiowa outsailed Madge, and as the 

 air died out Edith beat Kiowa a little. Later as it breezed up a 

 little and they met more of a bobble Kiowa turned the tables. 



Kiowa increased her lead a trifle on Edith and a good deal on 

 Madge by the latter's overstanding before tacking to the eastward; 

 and, once heading the sea, dropped them both, till Madge aban- 

 doned the race in disgust. 



Kiowa rounded the mark just half an hour after Wanda, and 

 4^m. ahead of Edith. In the run in. Eureka and Tom Cat passed 

 Wanda, Tom Cat gaining on Eureka. Kiowa dropped Edith a 

 couple of minutes, and gained 7m. on Wanda. 



The measurements of the E. Y. C. were used in the 40ft. class, 

 those of the B. Y. C. in other classes. 



Almira had hut two men aboard and fould not set her spinaker. 

 She sailed the course but crossed the wrong side of the line. 



Harbinger's length is not official; she will be remeasured. 

 Eureka protests her length, hut she was officially measured the 

 night before the race.
