water line length in racing tfim is • also still a matter of 
doubt-. Being built almost entirely of aluminum, the 
machine weighs scarcely more than half of that of an 
ordinary racing yacht of similar dimensions, and the 
"Freak's" performance on the water is consequently 
• looked forward to with a great deal of interest among 
■.yachtsmen. The cost of Mr. Meyers' queer boat is said 
to have been but little more than that of the conventional 
racing yacht of similar dimensions. — New York Times.

As Rear-Corn. Philip T. Dodge, of the Larchmont Y. 
C, has sold his yacht Clarita he has resigned and Com. 
Postley has appointed Mr. James Baird, owner of Hus- 
sar II., in his place. Com. Postley has also appointed 
Mr. Joseph H. Sterling fleet captain. 
On May 28 the remains of the schooner Grayling were 
burned at Greenport, L. I. The yacht was sold by her 
owner, Latham A. Fish, on the condition that the hull 
should be burned after the fittings and lead were re- 
moved.

Among the many yachtsmen who lost more or less 
material in the fire at George B. Carpenter's last Satur- 
day, the heaviest loser was George R. Peare, owner of 
Siren and Briar. Every stitch of canvas belonging to 
these yachts was stored in the Carpenter sail loft, and 
all was burnt. This was particularly bad luck, inasmuch 
as Mr. Peare has just been spending time and money 
overhauling and fitting out Siren for the big cruising race 
to Michigan City next Saturday, and was considered to 
have an excellent chance of winning it. The stalwart 
yachtsman was plunged into despair, but a bright idea 
struck him and he hurried to the office of his quondam 
rival, W. R. Crawford, owner of Vanenna, and Mr. Craw- 
ford willinghv lent Mr. Peare all his canvas. Experts have 
been busy bending Vanenna's sails on Siren, and, al- 
though they by no means fit, Mr. Peare believes he can 
make shift with them. At any rate, he intends to go into 
the long cruising race with them and do the best he can. 
Vanenna has about 3ft. more hoist than Siren, but is 
shorter in topmast and gaflf and has not quite such a large 
fore triangle, — Chicago Tribune June 3-
