 acq^nn^ed a reputation as a perfect gentleman. 



For several davs past the servant under whose immediate 

 care this dou is placed has noticed that he seemed unwillina'

 Lis portion of meat 1 let ween his lavvs. walked to the door, 

 waeaed his tail, and looked appealiini-h into the >er\Mnts 

 eyes. It the ilooi- was opened in response to this mute re- 

 quest, he diappeared nnmediatelv. and was not seen au'aiil 

 mitil liincheou. It the door was not opened he placed the 

 meat on the floor close by and sat ^iiard over it until a.n 

 opportunitv tor esca[)i- arri\-ed.

 She v's as \ ei-\ ninch interested, and enifaced a detective to

 put on an air ot dilettante mdilterence. as thonuh he h.id an

The Brooklyn C. C. has elected the foUoyiug r,ffleei-s: Com., F. L. 

 Dunnell: Vice-Com.. M. M. Davis; Purser, AV, McK. Miller: Treas.,

Theoffleers of the Atlantic Division. A. C. A., and of the New York 

 ( '. C. held a New Year re<'eption on Alonda.y in New York. 



The New York C. C. has selected Saturday, .Tune 17. as the date of 

 lis annual regatta. 



The cold weather of last, week made fine ice on the Shrewsbury and 

 Hudson, and also on iDrange Lake, a number of scrub races being 

 dialled. Considerable discussion and correspondence has taken place 



between the clubs over the dates and arrangements for inter-club 

 races for the various pennants and trophies, aial in the meanwhile 

 the i-ain of Siinda.v night spoiled the ice for Mouday, one club celebrat- ' 

 ing the day with a pi,geon match and dinner in place of a race. The 

 present colder weather gives promise of more ra,cing this week. 



The accident to the ITmbria and the usual slow passage of the 

 ancient Bothnia have dela.yed all our foreign mails until the time of 

 going to jiress. lait the ooniments of the English papers generally 

 over the Iiunraveu cliallen.ge are closely iu accord with the views ex- 

 pressed in the Forest and Stream. 



The most absurd rumor yet heard in connection with the Cup races 

 is to the elfect that Col, AA''. F. M. McCarthy, of .Baltimore, a "naval , 

 designer," has been recpiested by a syndicate of Baltimoreans to 

 design a cutter of 100ft. l.w.l. for the trial races. 



Tin? attention of our readers is called to the competitive design 

 above, which for some I'eason which we are not able to understand 

 was not accepted. AVe are confident that our yachting and can- 

 oeing readers will agree with ns that it is unciuestionably superior to 

 all of the others. 



Lord Dunbaven will have a 20-rater designed by Watson in addition 

 to his new ValkjTie.
