Y. C. went into commission. In the evening a 
dinner was given to Commodore Richards. 
Clinton Mackenzie’s Thelma beat G. Nichols’ 
Hen in the Seawanhaka Corinthian race to-day 
on inside course. Only these two boats were 
entered. 
The three-masted schooner yacht Karina, 
navigated by her owner, former Commodore 
Robert E. Tod, which sailed from Ambrose 
Channel Lightship at 10:42 a. m., on May 17, 
dropped anchor in Cowes roadstead, opposite 
Southampton, England, at 6:24, on June 2, after 
a pleasant passage from port to port of fifteen 
days, nineteen hours, twenty-four minutes. On 
the first day her run was 302 miles. 
At a meeting of the members of the St. 
John’s Y. C. the following officers were elected 
for the season: Commodore, W. F. Thayer; 
Vice-Commodore, A. N. Hebert; Executive Com¬ 
mittee, G. R. Futvoye, D. Imerie, F. Camaraire,

Commodore Thom.pson, of the Chicago Y. C, 
who for several weeks has been in Europe in 
the interest of the coming pageant, has cabled 
Vice-Commodore Quaile here that he has_ ob¬ 
tained the entries expected from Great Britain 
and France. 
Restless, the Tams, Lemoine & Crane speed 
boat, of which so much was expected and so 
little realized last year, will be entered in the 
international races this year. Her engines, which 
caused so much trouble last year, have been over¬ 
hauled and put into condition. 
With the resumption of motor boating on 
the rivers of Illinois, complaints are being filed 
concerning the absence of lights at night. The 
laws are strict governing this point, and officers 
of the Government have commenced a patrol 
system, and all who have failed to display lights 
at night will be given a heavy fine. 
Commodore Blackton’s toy ship. Baby Re¬ 
liance, has been dredged from the bottom of 
Lower Bay, and after a wash up and a yard or 
two of patches, will be ready for whatever else 
may be next on her schedule. 
Manhasset Bay Y. C. 
Lack of wind put a quietus on the Manhasset 
Bay Y. C.’s regatta last Saturday. The start was 
made off Execution Light with the yachts barely 
under steerage way. Sloops in P class got away 
first at 12:25, led by Corinthian. On the star¬ 
board tack Joyant was second away and passed 
Corinthian to windward. Cara Mia tacked im¬ 
mediately. 
Nine of the New York Y. C.’s 30-footers 
started next in the following order: Caprice, 
Rowdy, Carlita, Alera, Juanita, Phryne, Dahinda, 
Nepsi and Ibis. These and the P class boats 
sailed a 15^4 mile course, rounding marks off 
Oak Neck and Parsonage Point. The smaller 
classes sailed nine and six mile courses respec¬ 
tively. 
Four of the new small schooners made a 
pretty start, Vandalia leading in the_ weather 
berth. Daffodil, Rival and Helen following. Six¬ 
teen sloops of the handicap class started and 
fourteen finished.

ing many admirers and backers, but the Sea-

time, when Bartlett Reef Light vessel bears north, 
one-half west and New London light bears be¬ 
tween northeast one-quarter north, and north¬ 
east three-eighths north, and shall hail the light 
vessel. The race will be sailed under the racing
