and Harvey Mitchell; Regatta Committee: John S. Muckle, 
Chairman; Charles W. Davis and Harvey Mitchelk 
Republic, schr., under charter, sailed from Charleston, 
S. C, for Mexican and South American ports on May 4. 
Oneonta, steam yacht, F. C. Dininny, has been chartered 
to G. K. Clarke, Jr. 
It is reported that George G. Tyson, of the Riverside Y.C., 
owner of Vorant I. and II. Trilby and Riverside, has placed 
an order with the Herreshoffs for a steam yacht 310ft. long, 
a seagoing craft with brigantine rig, intended for a cruise 
around the world. 
Mr. J. TP. Tams, who has for many years been associated 
with the Regatta, America's Cup, and other important com- 
mittees of the New York Y. C. , has been appointed as the 
third member of the regatta committee for the year. 
Com. C. T. Wills, chairman of the building committee of 
the Indian Harbor Y. C, has signed the contract for build- 
ing a new club house at Greenwich, Conn. The building is 
to be of wood . 70 x 30ft. , and two stories high. The contract 
price is $15,000. The site is a prominent one at the mouth of 
Greenwich Harbor, a half mile west of E. C. Benedict's resi- 
dence. The contractor is J. P. Crosby, of Greenwich. The 
Duilding will be ready earl^ in July. The total cost of 
building and grounds will be in the neighborhood of $20,000. 
On April 29 there was launched from Webber's yard, JSTew 
Rochelle, a new sloop designed by Mr. Webber for James 
Baird. of the Philadelphia Y. C. Surprise, as she was 
named, is 45ft. over all, 30ft. l.w.l., 13ft. beam, and 3ft. 9in. 
draft, with 5 tons of lead. She is a centerboard boat, with 
Eole-masted sloop rig. She is intended as a generally useful 
oat, and is of strong and durable construction well fitted 
below, the trunk cabin giving a headroom of 5ft. lOin. Un- 
der sail in a hard blow she proved very satisfactory, both in 
stability and speed. 
Paprika, 15-footer, has been sold by Gardner & Cox to E. 
A. Stevens, Jr., son of Col. Edwin A. Stevens, of Hoboken. 
Mr. Stevens has just joined the Seawanhaka C. Y. C. 
The Burgess Y. C, of Marblehead, Mass., has arranged the

June 26, first championship; July 5, open race; July 10,

Melicete, cutter, the Burgess centerboard 46-footer, has 
been sold to Rear-Com. W. O. Gay, Hull Y. C. 
The Boston Y. C. , at a recent meeting paid the following 
fitting and well merited tribute to the memory of one of its 
most valuable members: Resolved, That whereas Hon. 
Benjamin Dean, one of the original members of the Boston 
Y. C, died at his home in South Boston on April 9, 1897, 
this club does now put on record the following memorial of 
its distinguished member. Before yacht clubs were known 
in these waters, and nearly thirty-ope years ago, he was one 
of the four choice spirits who, on board the old Yiolet, lying 
at Hull, conceived the scheme of the formation of this club. 
Now all but one of that party are sailing on celestial seas, 
where winds are ever fair and the breakers make no moan. 
At the first meeting of the voluntary association he presided. 
When, not long after its incorporation, the membership of 
the club seemed to turn rather to the pipe and bowl than to 
the tiller and sheet, he it was who did herculean labor in the 
successful efforts of reorganization, freshening it with new 
and influential members, who added character and respecta- 
bility to the organization. From the beginning to the day 
of his death he was one of the trustees, except for such years 
from 1870 to 1875, in which he was its commodore, and when 
the membership list reached its high-water mark. To him 
the holding of office meant always the taking of the respon- 
sibility attached to it. There is no island in the harbor of 
any size but that, at some time, he has examined it with 
reference to anchorage and headquarters for the club. It is 
familiar to us all that the land and flats which are noW used 
for yachting purposes and our present club house, and the 
more permanent wharf built after oth«r structures had been 
wrecked by ice floes, are due to his thoughtful generosity, 
rare foresight and executive ability. In the later years of his 
life, though handicapped by serious physical ills ' which 
would have deterred even the strongest man, he showed no 
abatement of his fondness for the sea and his enthusiasm for 
yachting. His last letter, written to the secret^ary of the 
club the week before his death, closed in these words: "My 
dear fellow members of the Boston Y. C, you will always be 
dear to me and still sail in my company, inhaling health 
from the winds and courage from the storms. " If we sought 
to make from all in this cliib the composite of that man who 
should be taken in all respects, as the ideal yacht club mem- 
ber, who would not say it is Benjamin Dean. 
The Taunton Y. C, whose station is at Dighton, Mass., an- 
nounces the following fixtures: May 31, club house, open to 
members' families and guests; club cruise to Thurston's for 
clam dinner; entertainment at club house in the evening. 
June 14, ladies' day and moonlight sail; entertainments to be 
announced later. June 26, first club race for championship 
cup. July 13, ladies' day and moonlight sail. Aug. 5-7, 
cruise to Newport. Aug. 11, Ladies' day and moonlight sail. 
Aug. 21, championship cup race. Aug. 26, open regatta and 
water events. Sept. 6, championship cup race. Sept. 10, 
ladies' day and moonlight sail. During July, August and 
September, there will be several smoke talks and stag parties 
given, dates of which will be announced later. The club 
will arrange several clam bakes this season at Assonet Neck 
and at Thuston's; dates and particulars to be given later. 
Regular club meetings are held at club house on the third 
Monday of May, June, July, August and September; annual 
meeting the last Monday in February. Limit of membership 
200; membership for 1896 was 197. Admission fee §10. Annual 
dues $5. The janitor will be on duty atthe club house, mak- 
ing preparation for the season on and after May 15. The 
house will be in readiness for members and their guests after 
May 29. Connected by telephone. The officers are: Com., 
Clinton V. Sanders; Vice-Corn., C. Everetc Evans; Rear- 
Com., Daniel L. Brownell; Acting Sec'y, Edwin N. Clark; 
Treas,, Everett H. Waldron; Fleet Captain, Joseph S. Wil- 
liams. Directors: Ged. E. Wilbur, C. V. Sanders, C. E. 
Evans. D. L, Brownell, H. S. Williams, W. W. Arnold, H. B. 
Baker. Regatta Committee: Edward L. Sargent, J. S Wil- 
liams, Geo. H. Phillips, W. H. Reed, Luther Dean. House 
Committee: C. Everett Evans, Edwin A. Tetlow, Charles P. 
Foster. 
The annual meeting of the Royal Canadian Y. C. was held 
on April 24 in the town club house, Toronto, the following 
officers being elected: Com., iEmilius Jarvis; Vice-Corn., J. 
H. Plummer; Rear-Com., George H. Gooderham; Hon. 
Seo'y, F. G. R. Seaver; Managing Committee: C. A. B. 
Brown, R. C, Donald, J. Gray Gib.son, Frank M. Gray, G. R. 
Hargraft, A, Burdett Lee, H. E. Ridley, James E. Robert- 
son, W. E. Sampson and James Scott. The retiring commo- 
dore, A. R. Boswell, has served the club for many years, as 
honorary secretary in 1S69, '70, '71; as commodore from 1878 
to 1883, and again, with the 20-rater Vreda as flagship, from 
1889 to 1897. Mr. S. Bruce Harman has also served the club 
long and well as honorary secretary. The club has been 
laboring under serious disadvantages for several years past, 
the town club house on the water front, by way of which the 
island club house is reached, having been almost inaccessible 
from the city. The work of improving the water front has 
been carried on by the city authorities in the same dilatory 
and slovenly manner that characterizes most municipal 
Vfork on this side of t-i^e liae, and several year§ have beee 
wasted in the construction of a bridM across the railway 
tracks. This bridge, which is open this week for the first 
time, will give convenient access to the club house from 
the city, and enable the members to enjoy once more the un- 
usual advantages which Toronto affords, a man being able 
to spend an hour at the club house between business and 
dinner, or to get out for a sail within half an hour of leaving 
his office or house. The continued isolation of the club sta- 
tions has had a natural effect in decreasing the membership 
of the club, and to counteract this a motion was passed to 
remit the initiation fee up to July 1. The present member- 
ship is: Honorary life members, 3; life members, 60; resi- 
dent members, 365; non-resident, 365; junior resident, 50; 
total, 577. Ten new life membership certificates will-be 
issued. The club offers special prizes for the 20ft. class and 
will be represented in the races at Montreal. Although the 
financial reports of the year show a balance of but $32.21, the 
club is in a very satisfactory position this year. Com. Jarvis, 
so well known through his connection with the building and 
handling of the successful Canada last year, is one of the 
most energetic and enthusiastic of Canadian yachtsmen, and 
no better selection could have been made for a leader at the 
present time. With free access to its houses and an added 
membership, the club has a bright future before it. 
On May 7 an ex^jlosion J;ook place aboard Viking, steam 
yacht, H, A Hutchinson, which nearly resulted in the death 
of Louis Corbett, the fireman of the yacht. She was lying 
at Tebo's Docks, between Sultana and Buccaneer, with 
steam up, just preparing for commission, when a manhole 
cover blew off, filling the boiler room and other spaces below 
deck with steam. All hands escaped but Corbett, who was 
caught below, but was able to reach an open porthole. This 
was too small to permit the passage of his body, and hfl 
would have been .scalded but>for those on the dock, who ran 
a fire hose to the yacht and played upon him. Between the 
chances of being scalded by the steam or drowned by the 
hose, he was still in serious danger. Chief Engineer Heil- 
bron, of the Buccaneer, made an attempt to go below but 
failed. Meanwhile men had been at work on the deck with 
axes, and a hole was finally cut by which Corbett was lifted 
out. He was taken to the hospital, but it is hoped that his 
injuries are not dangerous. 
The Dock Department of New York has at last moved in 
the matter of a yacht landing at the south end of the city, 
and work will be commenced this month on a breakwater 
next to Pier A, North River, inclosing a protected basin 
with a landing stage. The improvement has been long 
needed by yachtsmen. 
Emerald, schr., J. R. Maxwell, was launched on April 29 
from Marvel's ways, Newburgh, where she has been during 
the winter. Her original trough keel has been cut off and 
cut up, the lead being recast in the new keel trough which 
has been built. This alteration has increased the draft from 
about 10ft. to the full limit, 14ft. The rig is practically new 
throughout, and of course of increased area to utilize the 
power gained through the lower ballast. The yacht has 
been towed to Tebo's, where her spars will be shipped and 
she will be fitted out for racing. 
Helen, steam yacht, was launched at East Boston on May 
1. She was built for Oliver H Perry and is 87ft. over all, 
68ft. I.W.I., 14ft. 6in. beam and 5ft. draft. 
The Cricket Fleet, of Atlantic City, at its meeting on May 
6, decided to change its name to the Absequan Y. C. The 
following fixture.-? are announced: May 25, race for half- 
raters in Cricket Bay; June 10, race for cricket boats; June 
24, race for cricket boats and half-raters in Absecon Bay; 
July 8, open race in Cricket Bay; July 24, race for cricket 
boats and half-raters in Absecon Bay; Aug, 6, invitation 
race; Aug. 23, open race in the Thoroughfare; Sept. 7, race 
for cricket boats and half-raters in Absecon Bay; Sept. 21, 
open race. The invitation race, scheduled for Aug. 6, will 
probably be sailed with the Longport Y. C. 
Lehemer, sloop, has been sold by Com. Francis Shunk 
Brown, Philadelphia Y. C, to -Joshua R. Adams. 
Mayflower, steam yacht, Ogden Goelet, has made nearly 
twenty knots on her speed trial on the Clyde. She will be 
delivered to Mr. Goelet very soon, and will come at once to 
New York. Both Mayflower and Nahma, Mr. Robert 
Goelet's new yacht, have been delayed by the furnishers and 
upholsterers. 
Bedouin, cutter, J. Murray Mitchell, will this year, for the 
first time, appear with white topsides. She has been thor- 
oughly overhauled and refitted at Tebo's. Her younger and 
narrower sister, Ileen. lies near her in the tier at Tebo's, 
neglected and in very bad condition. 
Adrienne, schr., formerly of New Orleans, has arrived at 
New Haven, from which port she will hail in the future, her 
new owners being Chas. E. Graham and Israel Kel«ey. She 
was designed by Stewart & Binney, and built by Lawley & 
Sou in 1893. When enrolled in the Southern Y. C. she did a 
great deal of cruising in the Gulf and also in Cuban waters. 
The Fox Lake Y. C, of Fox Lake, TIL, has elected the fol- 
lowing officers: Com., Dr. T W. Brophy; Vice-Com., Ben- 
jamin Felex; Sec'y, John A. Putnam; Treas., C. J. Patter- 
son; Chaplain, Rev. Geo. W. Wright; Fleet Surgeon, Dr. 
Corlett; Meas., Robert Tooke, Jr.; Regatta Committee: 
Clark Bennett, Sumner SoUitt, Harry Weber, W. H. Lyford, 
Dr. Bently. The following amendment to the rules was 
passed: "Boats launched after July 4, 1896, with overhang 
shall be barred from first class unless one-third overhang be 
added to load waterline with crew aboard in competing 
length." The club has received a challenge from Wisconsin 
to sail for the championship of the State, and the winner to 
sail the winner of the WLsconsin State regatta at Green 
Ijake. Five races will be sailed at Fox Lake. The first, 
July 3, starting at Minneola; July 5, starting from Dr. Bro- 
phy's cottage; July 17, starting from East Side; July 31, 
starting from Dr. Tooker's cottage; Aug. 7, starting from 
island; Aug. 14, starting from East Side. 
The New York Yacht, Launch and Engine Co., of Morris 
Heights, N. Y., has issued a handsome catalogtie descriptive 
of the yachts, launches, etc., built by it. The company is 
now well established in its new shops on the Harlem.
