YACHTING NEWS NOTES. 
Designer Morgan Barney, of 29 Broadway, 
has been working very quietly, but nevertheless 
successfully. _ i\/r 
An order recently placed with James 1 V 1 . 
Bayles & Son, of Port Jefferson, L. I., for a 
cruising power yacht 9tlt. over all, 82ft. water¬ 
line, 14ft. loin, "beam, powered with two Stand- 
and motors, developing 120 horsepower is for Mr. 
W. H. Briggs, of Rochester, N. Y. 
It is such craft as these that will in time 
put the old style “tea kettles’ out of business. 
The engine room takes up such a small amount 
of space and the fuel is so much cleanei, hav¬ 
ing no smoke or coal dust, etc., they are bound 
to become popular with the development ot the 
marine gasolene engine of large sizes.

The next chapter in the Resurrection of the 
Pup opens on a Saturday in the last week of 
September, a cold raw day in the morning, but 
clearing as the day advanced until all was serene 
and blue at sunset. 
Bensonhurst was having its every day life 
when the long and the short man again appeared * 
on the beach, each with a grip sack in propor¬ 
tion to his size and dressed in warm sweaters. 
Thev lost no time after hunting up and paying 
Hogan, but started to work, cleaning out, re¬ 
caulking and refitting the seams of Pup’s plank¬ 
ing. 
It was about I o’clock when they finished and 
the tall man straightened up to take the kinks 
out of his knees and back and remarked, “Gosh !” 
let's quit and get something to eat.” 
So rubbing their hands in the sand to remove 
the putty and paint they adjourned to Hogan’s 
Alley and called for chowder and sandwiches. 
As they ate they noticed the tide was well up 
on the beach, so hastening their meal they got 
the boat builder to come with his gang and 
carry the boat to the water’s edge. 
Although Pup was a small boat, only 14ft. long 
on deck, she had a heavy lead keel and it was 
only after a great deal of puffing and grunting 
from the six men that she was finally carried to 
the water and shoved on the flat of her side 
into it. 
It would have been the proper thing for the 
tall man, who had bought the Pup, to have 
treated all hands, but as the boat builder’s crowd 
and the barkeeper’s crowd didn’t agree the 
former went off to their work again unoiled. 
“Have you found her pump?” asked Hogan 
as the two men sat down to rest on his porch. 
“No! Wish we could; she leaks a little and 
we should have it.” 
“Say! just look into that catboat on the beach 
over there; it’s in her. The Dutchman owns 
her.” 
So, all unintentionally of course, the two men 
sauntered along the shore toward this cat, and 
sure enough there in her cockpit lay the pump 
plunger with the iron rod shortened up and 
curved over like a cane handle. 
“Say, Sam,” called the short man; and Sam, 
who must have expected it, was near by. Who 
owns this cat?” Here’s Pup’s pump in her; 
here’s the plunger.” 
“Yah!” replied Sam with a hard look m the 
direction of Hogan’s Alley. “I’ll take it out and 
give it to you.” 
So the pump was recovered and all that re¬ 
mained to fill the gaping hole in the catboat s 
deck was the strong English indulged in by the 
bcfat builder as he took it out. 
Revenge is sweet and Sam got even on Hogan. 
“Say!” said he, as he got behind a sloop so the 
barkeeper couldn’t see him, “he’s got all de lead 
under his front porch, right by de beer kegs as 
you go under de stoop, an’ he’s got de sails too. 
And so it was a good thing for the two men 
after all that the Dutchman and Hogan were 
on the outs.- 
reached a crisis between the “square head’ and 
Llogan and they were at court to settle it. 
This was a set back; the tall man had come 
prepared to sail Pup away and here was no mast 
ready as promised. 
Madder and madder, the more he thought of 
it, he grew until he gave vent to his feelings 
thus: 
“You tell Sam it’s been a pretty good joke 
so far to sell a mast that didn’t belong to him, 
but if I don’t have that spar by 10 o’clock to¬ 
morrow it will cease to be a joke.” 
This was why Sam was seen hard at work in 
his shop on the following day, the Sabbath, and 
he didn't stop until he gave the tall man a brand 
new mast for Pup. 
Hogan produced the lead and between them 
everything was restored, the boat rigged com¬ 
plete, and just before sunset with grip * sack 
aboard the tall man set sail and Pup glided away 
from the beach where for two years she had 
caused so much trouble. 
One week later the two men arrived bag and 
baggage at the canoe club to sail Pup a distance 
of about twenty-five miles to New Rochelle on 
the Sound. 
It was a raw, chilly day, but the tide was fair 
to take them through the East River and Hell 
Gate. Everything favored an early start except 
the boat, and that disreputable little Pup, as if 
knowing the men had come away without their 
breakfast and lost considerable of their allotted 
sleep in order to come by rail in time to- catch 
the train, lay sunk at her moorings with only 
the tip of her mast visible above the water. 
The language indulged in by the couple was 
strong enough, if it could have been properly ap¬ 
plied," to raise the boat. Disappointment was 
upon both faces as they set to work to raise the 
wreck. 
The negro janitor lent a hand and by hitching 
a heavy tackle to one of the spiles that held the 
float in place they managed to drag the boat 
bodily over the sandy bottom until near enough 
to right her by her mast. Her deck just came to 
the level of the water as she sat on the sandy 
bottom. 
Bare-footed, and with their sleeves rolled up, 
the tall man worked a large pump the janitor 
produced, while the short man got aboard and 
baled with a bucket as if his life depended on it. 
[to be concluded.] 
Messrs. Wilson & Silsbee, the Boston sail- | 
makers, have received an order through Mr. I 
Henry Howard for a suit of American made 
sails for Com. Enrique Pardinas of the Real 
Club Nautico, of San Sebastian, for his Spanish 
sonder class boat. The King of Spain’s sails, 
made by this same firm, are ready for shipment.

Ruddick, the yacht builder on 141st street, | 
New York city, has just received an order, 
through designer Morgan Barney for a neat little 
25ft. launch. 
A week or so later the long man alone ap¬ 
peared at Gravesend Beach to get the mast the 
boat builder had promised to make to replace 
the one that was lost. But the place was de¬ 
serted. Neither Mr. Hogan nor the Dutchman 
were about and the boy and man that were 
leisurely at work shoring up a sloop were the 
onlv persons in sight. 
The tall man inquired of them where everyone 
had gone and was informed that matters had
