An Impromptu Coursing 1 Meeting. 



Denver, Col., Jan. 5— In order to keep up the interest at 

 Goodland, Lighthall, Taylor, my brother Arthur and myself 

 took a run down to Goodlaud on the 30t,h ult., and took with 

 with us Bon Bon, Bonny Belle, Birdseye and Irish Lass. The 

 Goodland boys, who had been advised of our coming, had a 

 delegation at the depot awaitiag our arrival. After a few 

 preliminaries we agreed to meet at Walker's store and get up 

 a stake for the following day. At the appointed hour the 

 boys were all of them on deck. The Goodland boys entered 

 four — Rear-Admiral, Rook and Roy's Vanish. Vidler sent 

 down Van's General with Taylor for C. A. White; l/ighthall 

 entered his Roueh and Ready (a litter brother of the "un- 

 known quantity," Buster), and the St. Patrick Kennels 

 entered the four mentioned above. Taylor was called upon 

 to do the slipping, which he did in a most satisfactory man- 

 ner, while Frank Bradley officiated in the capacity of judge. 

 Bradley's decisions met with general favor, there not being 

 a single kick heard on the grounds. 



At 10 o'clock the Toad south whs lined with about 150 bug- 

 gies, horses and carriages, wending their way to the little 

 white school house, which had been designated as the start- 

 ing point. At 11 o'clock the first brace were ordered to the 

 slips. 



Rear Admiral— Rough and Ready.— Slipped at about 

 60yds. Rear Admiral at once shot to the front and made the 

 turn six lengths in advance. He served himself three times 

 before Rough and Ready could get in. Rough and Ready 

 now took a hand, and passing Admiral, wrenched several 

 times, then turned twice, each time placing Admiral, and 

 racing past him. The rabbit then struck a corn row and 

 straightened out, leading the dogs a merry procession for 

 several miles, when he made good his escape. Rear Admiral 

 quit in the cornfield in plain sight of the hare. Rough and 

 Ready won. 



Rhea— Irish Lass.— These two white bitches (half sisters) 

 made a pretty brace in the slips, and considerable specula- 

 tion was indulged in as to which would raise the flag, but 

 when they were slipped Rhea at once shot to the front, 

 turned her hare twice, made a few wrenches, when the hare 

 broke for the hills and escaped. Irish Lass, who was run- 

 ning very cunning, never had a look in. 



Rook — Birdseye. — Birdseye made the turn by a good 

 length, placed Rook and passed him, wrenched several times 

 when Rook came in for a nice sequence. Some lively ex- 

 changing then took place, in which it was give and take. 

 Birdseye passing Rook was using her hare nicely when he 

 took to earth. The flag went up for Rook. (I would have 

 given the red bitch the verdict.) 



Bon Bon— Roy's Vanish.— Bon Bon led easily and staying 

 right on top of her hare, scarcely allowed Vanish a look in. 



Bonny Belle— Van's General.— Bonny Belle led from 

 the slips and turned the hare two lengths ahead of General. 

 She worked the hare single-handed in full view of the crowd 

 and forced puss to take to earth. General fell twice in the 

 course and ran very awkwardly. 



First 2%. 



Rhea— Rough And Ready.— Rhea was the quicker away 

 from the slips, and opened the gap until she took the turn 

 fully eight lengths in the lead. She worked puss very rapidly 

 for a long time, finally killing after a very long course. She 

 never allowed Rough and Ready a look in. This course was 

 a hard one on the bitch and used her up, so that she was 

 drawn. 



Rook— Bon Bon.— Bon Bon made the turn by a length, 

 threw puss to Rook, who turned back to Bon Bon. It "was 

 give and take until the hare was taken out of sight of the 

 crowd, where puss was forced to take to earth. The hat 

 came off. After the next course they were again put in the 

 slips. Bon Bon led easily and working the closer in a well 

 run course was an easy winner, as the hare escaped in a 

 timber claim. 



Bonnie Belle— Birdseye (bye dog).— As several bets 

 were made on this course the interest was as keen as iu the 

 other conrsas. Bonnie Belle led, turned, placed Birdseye, 

 raced past and repeated the dose. Birdseye then got in, 

 made several strong wrenches and turned to Bonnie, who 

 dashed in and killed. 



Rhea having been withdrawn and the only two being left 

 in belonging to us we divided with them. 



Every one voted it a fine day and returned home well 

 pleased. In the evening the Goodland boys entertained us 

 in a pleasant way until our train came along. The rabbits 

 seem to be just as plentiful as they were in October and 

 somewhat stronger. The Goodland boys are keeping the 

 pot-hunters off the grounds and are getting ready for a 

 rousing meeting in February. They have a trainer for their 

 dogs who thoroughly understands his business. 



Impromptu Stake (Goodland, Dec. 31, 1893).— Entrance $5; first $25 

 second $15, third $10; 10 subscriptions.

Seawanhaka Corinthian Y. C. 



The annual meeting of the Seawanhaka Corinthian Y. C. was held 

 on Jan. 9 at the town club house, New York, Com. Center presiding. 

 The reports of the board of trustees and the various standing com- 

 mittees were read, showing the club to be in a prosperous and satis- 

 factory condition. The secretary's report showed a net loss of eleven 

 members this year, the present membership, 385, being just. 15 less 

 than the limit. The large increase of the dues from $86 to $50, neces- 

 sitated by the establishment of the Oyster Bay station in 1892. has 

 naturally resulted in ihe loss of some members who were unable to 

 avail themselves of the increased privileges, and tbis loss has been 

 larger in the second than in the first, year. It has, however, been 

 smaller than first estimated, and has been more, than counterbalanced 

 by the addition of new members, the limit being reached for the first 

 time this summer. The present business depression occurred at the

HUNTING AND COURSING NOTES. 



The Green Spring Valley Game Protective Association is 

 an organization composed of a number of large land owners 

 and sportsmen in Maryland. At a meeting of the associa- 

 tion held at Rogers Station, Jan. 8, the committee on by-laws 

 proposed a number of rules, all of which were adopted ex- 

 cepting one requiring members to chain their dogs or pre- 

 vent their running at large. This was approved as far as 

 foxhounds were concerned, and the question of their run- 

 ning at large was left open until the next meeting. The sec- 

 retary stated that the land owned by the gentlemen who 

 have already joined was something over 16,000 acres, and 

 that others were expected. Gamekeepers will be emploved 

 to keep out non-resident gunners and strange dogs. Mr. Wil- 

 liam Fell Johnson was elected Vice-President, Mr. George 

 Brown being previously elected President, and Charles B. 

 Rogers Secretary. The following Board of Governors were 

 elected: George Brown. T. Edward Hambleton, Stephen 

 Cockey, Wm. Pell Johnson, H. Carroll Winchester, Wm. 

 Cockey, Henry A. Parr and Thomas Brady. The yearly 

 dues are $10 and a number of new subscribers were enrolled 

 at the meeting. It is proposed to stock the waters with 

 trout and the grounds with grouse and other feathered 

 game.

worst possible time, the second season of a very expensive venture, 

 which had not yet progressed beyond the experimental stage; and all 

 things considered, the club has fared very well, the financial reports 

 were very satisfactory, the fleet is larger than ever before and the, 

 membership is very close to the maximum limit. The following offi- 

 cers were elected: Com., G. H. B. Hill, schooner Ariel; Vice-Com., E. 

 0. Benedict, steam yacht Oneida; Rear Com., Walter C. Tuckerman, 

 cutter Liris; Sec'y. Henry W. Hay den: Treas., Walter C. Hubbard: 

 Meas., John Ilyslop; Fleet Surgeon, Dr. J. West Roosevelt; Fleet 

 Chaplain, the Rev. George R. Van De Water, D.D.; Race Committee 

 Macomb G Foster, Walter C. Kerr, Valentine Mott, R. A. Rutherfurd, 

 and George Wendell; House Committee, George Bullock, Walter C. 

 Gilson, Walter T. Owen, W. Emlen Roosevelt and Arthur Deane 

 Weeks; Committee on Lectures and Entertain merits, WilJian Van 

 Rensselaer Erving, William Foulke and F. Delano Weeks: Committee 

 on Lines and Models, John Hyslop. A. Carv Smith, and W. P. Stephens: 

 Law Committee, F. Kingsbury Curtis, Alfred Ely and Frederick DeP. 

 Foster; Trustee, Herbert L. Satterlee and J. Laiigdon Ward. 



The retirement of Mr. d'Oremieulx from the office of secretary 

 marks a very important decade in the club's history, his term of office 

 having begun in KfeJS, the year in which the formula now universally 

 known as the "Seawanhaka rule" was first adopted. The thorough

and efficient manner in which the immediate duties of the secretary- 

 ship have been performed for this long period is widely known outride 

 the club; and in addition Mr. d'Oremieulx has been one of the leading 

 spirits in establishing the high standard for which the sailing and 

 other rules of the Seawanhaka Corinthian Y. C. are so justly noted 

 The care and labor which he has so freely given for these many years 

 have contributed in no small degree to the present prosperity of the 

 club. The race committee was authorized to correspond with the 

 owners of the large singlestickers in regard to a race early in the sea- 

 son, for which the club will offer a cup of $500 value. 



YACHT NEWS NOTES. 



The final race for the champion pennant for 16 catboats belonging 

 to the Cooper's Point Y. C. was sailed yesterday. The contestants 

 were the Kinsey and Humphreys. It was an ideal day for racing, a 

 slashing breeze blew from the west, with a southerly tendency, and 

 everything seemed couleur de rose. Captain R. G. Wilkins was referee 

 and starter, and he gave the word precisely at 2:30 P. M. Both boats 

 crossed the lme neck and neck, carrying their full racing sails. The 

 course was from Wilkins slip round Petty 's Island and back. They 

 tore through the water side by side, neither seeming to gain an inch; 

 in fact, sometimes they were so close that glasses could be touched in 

 New Year's greetings. They rounded close together, and then sheets 

 were flattened for the home ' tretch. The breeze had meanwhile in- 

 creased, and they both luffed like mad in the squalls, hut neither dared 

 to stop to reef. Tack and tack they neared the goal, each trying to 

 outmaneuver the other, but it was a case of "Jack's as good as his 

 master," and what one did the other did. As they came for the fin- 

 ishing line it was hard to say which was ahead, but the Kinsey had the 

 weather gauge and just crossed ahead of her opponent. The times 

 were: Kinsey 8m.. 38s., Humphreys 3m. 29s., one of the closest races 

 ever sailed. Captam Warner Kinsey sailed his namesake, and Captain 

 John J. Grindrod the Humpheys. Both men handled their boats 

 admirably, as the time will attest, making the entire run of ll miles in 

 58m. This time, over the same course has only been beaten on two 

 occasions, namely, by the R. G- Wilkins, which did the distance in 

 57m , and the William Kinsev, which sailed the course in 55m 9s — 

 Philadelphia Item, Jan. 2. 



Com. E. D. Morgan and Mr. C. O. Iselin havein a substantial manner 

 recognized the designer o. the boat winch defeated the British chal- 

 lenger for the America's Cup. It was intended to give a reception to 

 Capt. "Nat" Herreshoff at New Yorkafte'" the international cup races 

 were over, but the Bristol designer abruptly left for his Rhode Island 

 home and the plans of Messrs. Morgan and Iselin, the beads of the 

 syndicate owning the Vigilant, were frustrated, at least for the time 

 It was still felt, however, by these gentlemen and others who com- 

 posed the syndicate that some recognition was due to Mr. Herreshoff 

 not only as the designer of the fasted yacht afloat, but also on 

 account of the services which he reudered in the management of 



the craft during the races The result of this feeling was that one 

 day during the Christmas holidays a messenger arrived at Bristol 

 from New York and presenting himself at the door of Capt. "Nat's" 

 residence asked to see the designer. The messenger was informed 

 that the captain was very busy and could not be seen, but he insisted 

 that he must have a brief interview with him. The yacht builder 

 then presented himself and the messenger handed him an envelope 

 and then departed. On opening the letter a handsome Christmas 

 present of five bank hills of the denomination of $500 each met his 

 eyes, together with a note from Messrs. Morgan and Iselin asking him 

 to accept the sum as a tribute of their appreciation of his services. 

 Captain "Nat" kept the secret well and the facts did not leak out 

 until to-day.— New York Herald. 



To the many who are familiar with the previous editions, it is only 

 necessary to say that the fifth edition of "The Naval Architect's, Ship- 

 builder's and Marine Engineer's Pocket-Book," by Clement Mackrow, 

 M. I. N. A., is an enlargement and improvement of the fourth edition. 

 To others we can recommend the work as indispensable to all associ- 

 ated with the occupations enumerated. Following the general plan of 

 the Btandard engineering pocket-books, this book is devoted specially 

 to naval architecture and marine engineering, and is a compact but 

 comprehensive treatise on the subjects. All of the calculations relat- 

 ing to a vessel are dealt with iu detail, the mathematical formulas 

 being supplemented by clear and Bimply worded descriptions. One 

 feature of the work, which will Specially commend it to amateurs and 

 to those whose educational advantages have been limited, is a brief but 

 clear and thorough summary of the principles of arithmetic, trigo- 

 nometry, geometry, mensuration, algebra and mechanics. The many 

 miscellaneous tables include logarithms, sines and tangents, weights 

 and measures of all kinds, weight and strengths of materials, distance 

 tables, tonnage tables and a numerous and useful collection of figures 

 relating to the calculations of the naval architect and designer. The 

 book is clearly printed on thin paper, 700 pages, and is handsomely 

 bound in flexible leather. It is published by Crosby, Lockwood & 

 Son, London.
