other changes being made in the sail plan. After a good 
race she won from Mira by a few seconds. Altair beat 
Hussar II. very easily, but Syce sailed a poor race and 
came in third, the first time that she has been beaten by 
Hussar II. The two new Herreshoff 36-footers, Effort 
and Countess, came to grief, the former losing her mast 
and the latter springing hers and giving up. The catboat 
Sneeke, sailed by two young boys, broke her gaff and 
was taken in tow of the committee steamer, astern of 
Countess, also disabled. In starting up, the jerk threw 
one of the boys into the water, but he was picked up and 
both were taken on to Countess. Nearing the harbor, 
Sneeke capsized entirely. The first round was timed:

Fifth Day— Thursday, July 26. 
A steady rain and light wind, with fog, made a dis- 
couraging combination for Thursday morning, and though 
the programme was followed out by the committee, but a 
small fleet responded. The start was not made until i :3o, 
by which time there was a light N.E. wind, but this fell 
later and made the race most unsatisfactory. The center- 
board cutter Sistae. of New Bedford, was in the harbor 
and started against Altair. The full times were :

Sixth Day — Friday, July 27. 
What wind th^n-p wns on Friday morning had dis- 
appeared by II :30, when the start was made, and the race 
turned out little more than a drift. Hussar 11. was not 
present, having gone to her builder's yard, where her 
sloop rig, mainsail and jib, will be replaced by a cutter 
rig. the mast being shifted aft and a topmast added, with 
double headsails. 
The race was without notable incident, the boats getting 
over the course very slowly and as best they could in 
the intervals of light airs. The times were:

Seventh Day — Saturday, July 28: 
With a list of sixty starters, the prospects were 
promising on the morning of the last day, but the wind 
Avas very light, from S,E., and just after the start, at 
II :30, it fell to a flat calm for over an hour, some of the 
yachts being becalmed for a long time on or below the 
line. A light S.W. breeze later on enabled the yachts to 
finish, the larger ones sailing but one round. The first
