Thursday, May 30. 
The Atlantic Y. C. went into commission and held a 
race for its members on Thursday, May 30. The race 
was sailed in the afternoon over one of the triangular 
courses on the lower bay in a fair southerly breeze. The 
signal gun was fired at 3 :o5, arid Maraquita and Ondawa 
stood down for the starting line. The latter boat in the 
lead by over half a length with the wind abeam, they had a 
run to the first mark to Fort Lafayette, a close hitch to 
Craven Shoal, a beat to East Bank and a run home. The 
boats sailed twice over this course, making a total dis- 
tance of eleven miles. Just after the start Mariquita 
overhauled Ondawa and finally drew ahead, which lead 
she maintained until the finish, crossing the line i6s. in 
the lead of Ondawa. Mariquita has to be remeasured on 
account of some alterations that have been made on her, so 
that the figures may be changed on corrected time. In the 
other classes the boats crossed the starting line in the 
following order. Akis,ta, We Win It, Song and Dance, 
Pebble and Peanut. They had a run to the first mark, a 
reach to the second and a close hitch home. The sum-

Thursday, May 30. 
The Seawanhaka Corinthian Y. C. went into commis- 
sion and held its first race on Thursday,' May 30. The 
boats sailed over the inside course and three classes were 
filled, namely, the raceabouts, Seawanhaka knockabouts 
and club catboats. The wind was from the N.E., so the 
first leg was a beat to Plum Point, then a reach to a mark 
in Cold Spring Harbor, and then a run back to Plum 
Point. The boats sailed three times over this course. In 
the raceabout class Mr. H. M. Crane started his new 
boat, Merrywing, which was designed by his brother, Mr. 
Clinton H. Crane, who also started in Raider, one of his 
la.st year's productions, while Mr. Johnson De Forest 
started in his last year's Scamp. Merrywing got the best 
start, leadi ng over the line, with Raider second and Scamp 
third. In the second round Scamp got in the lead and 
finished first, beating Merrywing by a small margin. The
