The Fooftli at "White" Bear. 
The usual Fourth of July regatta at White Bear Lake, 
Minn., was ruined this week by heavy rains, which 
practically broke up the sport and sent every one to 
shelter. Minnesota, Saint and Minnezitka started at i 
o'clock. Saint laroke down at the half-way point; then 
tthe wind fell, and Minnesota could not finish. At 4 
o'clock the 17-footers and is-footers were sent off, but 
were caught by the storm and somewhat damaged, Atilla, 
being capsized. Leola broke her tiller, but managed to 
help the crew of the former yacht. The storm prevented 
the finishing of the race, and indeed spoiled the day.

Latchmont Y. C Annaal Regatta. 
j^- LARCH MONT — LONG ISLAND SOUND. 
Wednesday, July 4. 
All- the arrangements for the annual regatta of the 
Larchfnont Y. C. on July 4 were perfect, with the excep- 
tion of the wind, which was everywhere and nowhere, 
blowing from N.W. at the start, but falling after a sum- 
mer squall. The conditions were so unfavorable that the 
winners were in most classes determined by chance. 
Apart from the two old schooners. Sachem and Fleur de 
Lys the only large yacht was the new cutter Mmeola 
11. ' The death of Mrs. E. V. G. Brokaw, mother of 
Messrs. W. G. and C. V. Brokaw, prevented the starting 
of Amorita and Queen Mab. With no opponent, Quissetta 
was not present, and Astrild, the new boat of Queen 
Mab's class, was without a competitor. A special match 
was made between Mineola II. and Astrild. Among the 
new boats were Miladi, schooner; the 51ft. cutter Altair, 
the 43ft. keel sloop Hebe, just in from Boston, and the 
36ft. sloop Countess, built at Bristol for Oswald Sander- 
son, former owner of Pyxie and Anoatok. 
The starting began at 11 :40, and the last boats were sent 
away at 12 : 15. The two large cutters Astrild and Mineola 
were started with a class of small catboats. As Mineola 
and Astrild were working for the weather berth at. the 
Sine, a small catboat came by the committee boat right in 
Mineola' s course. To avoid cutting her down, Capt. 
Wringe took the other risk of fouling Astrild, and the two 
bumped together, but without serious damage. Later 
on the cutter Altair, when on port tack, fouled Astrild 
and took a piece out of her boom. The chief interest 
was in ihe 51ft. class, Syce defeating the new Bristol boat 
after a fairly even race, while the centerboard sloop Hus- 
sar IL was over a quarter of an hour astern of the two 
cutters. The first round was timed:

Indian Hatbor Y. C» 
GREENWICH — LONG ISLAND SOUND. 
Thursday, July s. 
The Indian Harbor Y. C. sailed an open race on July 
5 in a variable and fluky wind. Mineola II. was present, 
with the Belmont fleet, which includes the steam tender 
Scout and two i8ft. sloops, owned and sailed by Vice- 
Com. Belmont's sons, August Belmont, Jr., aged seven- 
teen, and Raymond Belmont, aged twelve. A special 
match was made between Mineola and y\ltair iinder the 
regular allowance, while two small boats started in a class 
by themselves. Mira, cutter, and Albicore, yawl, made 
a special match. Mira given double time. Com. E. C. 
Benedict sailed the knockabout Wyntje in the absence of 
her owner. A threatening squall, which passed over, 
caused Mineola to withdraw, as she did not care to wet 
her mainsail, being now in shape for the class matches off 
Newport. The courses were on the Sound, starting off 
Captain's Island. The times were:
