the Sachem's Head Y. C. winning the most races during 
the season. The secretary has offered a cup for the 
boat of the Connecticut River type which first wins it

fact engraved thereon, and hold it until it is won by 
another boat, and so on until some one boat has won it 
three times, when it becomes the property of the owner 
of that boat. Other prizes will be offered, and the con-
