Andria. 
The European edition of the New York Herald publishes 
the following account of the new steam yacht Andria : 
The steam yacht Andria, which the Ailsa Shipbuilding 
Company, of Troon, recently built from G. L. Watson's de- 
signs to the order of John E. Brooks, of New York and Lon- 
don, has just completed her official trials on the Firth of 
Clyde, and these proved of a highly satisfactory nature. 
The Andria is 161ffc, on the load waterline, 33ft. 6in. beam 
and 14ft. Sin. moulded depth, and with all her ballast and 
other appurtenances, with tanks full and bunker coal on 
board, has a displacement of about iSQ tons. According to 
her specifications she was to maintain a speed of fourteen 
and a half knots on the double run from the Cloch to Cum- 
brae lighthouses. 
The Andria is perhaps the most complete little steamer 
Mr, Watson has yet designed, and certainly in appearance 
she is more captivating to the eye than many of the recent 
steam yachts the Glasgow designer has given out. 
The space area under the deck has been largely drawn on 
for her machinery and fuel accommodation, but, notwith- 
standing, the remaining footage has been very judiciously 
apportioned and deck house accommodation has been largely 
wrought on for saloon and cabins. The fittings of the boat, 
although not elaborate and over grand, are tasteful and 
light, while every comfort and convenience one could ask for 
is in evidence in the internal detail of the ship. Ventilation 
and light are two of the leading features of her inner min- 
utisB, and these have been secured at theexpenseof the latest 
ventilating afjpliances and the most thorough and complete 
electric light installations. 
The steam steering gear, binnacles, windlass, capstan, tele- 
graphs, search light and guns are all of the most approved 
and up-to-date fashion, while the general arrangement and 
get-up of her boats and deck fixings and fixtures are such as 
to give her deck plan a pleasing and finished look. On her 
several runs between the lights she had Mr. Brooks and 
party, Mr. G L. Watson and representatives of the builders 
on board. On the distance, which is ten knots, the vessel 
well maintained her speed, and as the mean between the 
down and return run, she attained the goodly speed of 14.66 
knots.

The W. C. A. Meets at Delavan. 
The committee of the W. C. A. has set as the time and place 
of the summer meet, Aug. 7-17, at Delavan Lake, Wisconsin. 
This is only one of the many regular summer-resort lakes of 
lower Wisconsin, and in the humble opinion of the writer, 
no better than Madison or any of many similar places, and 
not a place for a genuine canoe meet. It is the judgment of 
the body, however, that this is the place to go, so it is to 
be hoped that the boys will all fall in line. So far as the 
lake itself and its camping facilities are concerned, it will do 
very nicely — as nicely as any dooryard lake can — and there is 
no reason to suppose that a good, lazy loafing time will not 
be had. The meet will be rather Western this time, it is 
thought, and especially will it be much a Wi«consin affair 
if present signs be accurate in their predictions. The Mil- 
waukee boys are going to turn out in great force, and there 
will be enough from that city alone to assure a good 
naeet and a jolly good time. There will be plenty of sail- 
ing and fishing a.nd good bathing, though no cruising. The 
Milwaukee contingent will go in unique style and will pre- 
sent an imposing summer attraction on Delavan. Skipper 
Holmes will sport lavender-colored sail«, skipper Merrill will 
have sky-blue ones, and others will follow with a variety of 
color schemes in theiir rigging. There seems a determined 
effort among the canoeists of this section to make the meet 
a success. The attendance is sure to be larger than it was 
at Mullet Lake last year, and nothing but obstinacy can 
prevent anybody who attends from having a jolly good time. 
The only reservation about it is that there are so many 
localities like Charlevoix or other southern Michigan points 
which appear to offer advantages so much superior to those 
of any inland Wisconsin water. The majority goes, how- 
ever, so it ought to be made unanimous, and that very 
heartily. E. Hough.

At C. A. Camp Grindstone. 
On the invitation of Vice-Com. Burns and Purser Macnee, 
of Kingston, Com. MacKendrlck, together with several 
members of the Kingston Canoe and Yacht Club, had a most 
enjoyable sail on the tidy little yacht Hustler from Kingston 
to Grindstone. 
A night was spent at Clayton, where Cant. Wilson, of the 
Pastime, was seen and final arrangements made for the trans- 
portation from Clayton to camp. Early the next morning a 
fair breeze took the party over to the camp dock. 
It is the general opinion that the islands never looked pret- 
tier than they do this year, on account of the great amount 
of rain. Flowers are abundant on the camp grounds 
A luxuriant growth of rye surrounds the mess tent. The 
Commodore assures the temperance man of the party that it 
will disappear before the camp opens. 
The water is Sin. higher than at the same time last year. 
But little damage has been done by the winter winds. 
A few tent floors have been destroyed and several trees up- 
rooted. 
A call was made on Mr. Delaney. He has a good stock of 
ice laid away and reports his spring chickens growing fast. 
Arrangements were made with him by which a good path 
will be made between Squaw Point and the mess tent. 
Everything points to a most successful meet. Large dele- 
gations from Rochester, Buffalo, Kingston and Toronto 
have already bespoken camp sites from Chairman H. Cj 
Morse, of Peoria, 111. 
Tandem Canoeing. 
R. B. BuRCHAEDand Edith Russell Church will be married 
at Little Gompton, R. I., by the Rev. Dr. Sunderland, of 
Washington, D. C. , on Saturday, June 26. 
Mr. Burchard is yachting editor of Outing magazine, and 
was at one time editor of the A.merican Canoeist m connec- 
tion with Col. Chas. Ledyard Norton. He was vice-commo- 
dore of the New York C. C. for several terms while C. Kirk 
Munroe was commodore, and he succeeded Munroe when he 
retired from office. . " 
Miss Church is the daughter of the "late John Church, of 
Cincinnati, O. She went through school in Boston and has 
spent several years in study and travel in Europe. 
The main-.sheet crew of Mr. Burchard's cutter Nita, con- 
sisting of Messrs. _Prentice Shethar, Heury A. Rush and 
George Valliant, tendered their captain a farewell dinner at 
the LTnion League Club on June 18, and Mr. Burchard's 
associates in the Nu chapter of the Delta Kappa Epsilon 
fraternity, all of whom are married, welcomed him as a 
Benedict with fitting festivities on the 26fch inst. 
Mr. Burchard has won an enviable reputation as a cruis- 
ing canoeist of the original tvoe. He has made the cruise of 
the St. Lawrence River from Clayton to Quebec, being one 
of the few white canoeists who have run all the rapids. He 
has also crui'^ed on the Atlantic Coast from New York to 
the Bay of Fundy in a canoe-yawl, with S. R. Stoddard, the 
photographer.

Pennsylvania Tournament. 
Oil City, Pa , June 2t.Special to Forest and Stream: - The pros- 
pects for a successful State shoot are very flittering. The boys are 
comine in good numbers, every train being repoB'fible for three or 
more shooters from different pans of the S'ate. The candidates for 
the open events are decidedly warm in quality. McMurchy, Heikes, 
Trimble, Grimm, Budd, Powers, Fulford, Gilbert, Glover, ' Fanning. 
Van Dyke, Dickey, Redwing, Brewer, Cour eney, and others are 
among the number who have entered, for the opening events of the 
first day. 
This afternoon there was some prelimmary practice, eight events 
lieing decided, four of them at 15 targets and four at iO targets. 
The shooting was extretnely difficult on account of the hard back- 
ground, which is a well-wooried hili, against which it is almost impos- 
sible to see the .targets In addition to this the targets were thrown 
from the magautrap a distance of fully 60yds Gilbert and Fulford 
were the only ones to score 30 straight, and both these straights 
were in the same eveut. One 15 straight was made during 
the afternoon. Dickey being the fortunate man. From this it 
will be seen that the game was a hard one. The Oil City Gun Olub 
has gotten everything m good shape, and -it only needs fine weather 
(and that seems a cprtainty) to make the State shoot of 1897 a success 
m every way The accommodations are firs'-class, and Manager 
Shaner says ihat he will have no trouble in running off the pro- 
gramme each day in good time. The entries for the big 25 bird event, 
§1,000 guaranteed, wiU clo.?e to night, and the number of entries to 
date is stated to be something in the neighborhood of forty. A few 
more entries are certain to drop in, and it is likely that the full num- 
ber of shooters in this event will reach the fifty mark.
