1 he King of Spain s invitation to American 
yachtsmen to sail an international match with 
sonder class boats, which was forwarded recently 
through the Royal Y. C, of San Sebastian, to 
the Eastern Y. C., has been formally accepted by 
the latter club. 
i he three boats, which will form the American 
team in the German-American match at Kiel, be¬ 
ginning Aug. 15, will be shipped to San Sebastian 
to sail there against three Spanish boats in Sep¬ 
tember. The date will be fixed later. This 
decision was arrived at by the Eastern Y. C. 
after canvassing the owners in the sonder class 
who intend to enter the trials here in June, and 
learning if they would agree, if chosen to repre¬ 
sent their country in Germany, to sail also in 
Spain. All said they would be pleased to meet 
the Spaniards. 
The date for beginning the elimination trials 
for the American team, off Marblehead, has been 
changed from June ro, which was first set, to 
Tuesday, June 18. The trials will last five days. 
Entries close on June 1, and the boats must be 
measured by the Eastern Y. C. measurer in the 
week ending June 8. 
The three boats chosen will be shipped from 
Boston to Hamburg by the steamer Sylvia, due 
to leave Boston June 29. They should make 
the passage in two weeks, and should be under 
sail at Kiel before July 20. This will give their 
crews nearly a month in which to familiarize 
themselves with the courses off Kiel. 
I he rules to govern the German match have 
not been issued, and probably will not be until 
a representative of the Eastern Y. C. has a con¬ 
ference with the representatives of the Imperial 
Y. C.

also just completed a launch for lobster pot tend¬

1 he Corinthian \. C. will offer championships 
in classes M N, P Q, R and S rating, the sonder 
c ass and the 18ft. knockabout class. It will 
also hold the annual ocean race to the Isles of 
bfioals whistler and return. Its schedule is as 
follows: June 8, club race; June 22, club race; 
June 22, ocean race, open; June 29, trial race

If the weather continues to back and fill as 
it has this month we may see ice yachting again 
before sail boats go into commission. At least 
so Capt. E. V. Willis, of Red Bank, who sailed 
on the winning sonder class boat Vim, was re¬ 
marking as he drew out of his pocket the photo 
herewith reproduced of the ice yachts. Imp, 
Isabel, Tyro and Drub. Imp is the nearest one. 
Drub the furthest one of the four. 
Captain Willis, Captain Burd (after whom 
Drub was named by spelling his own name back¬ 
wards) and Tabor Parker built the new boat 
Imp and were out after Captain “Rube” White’s 
scalp, he sailing Drub for Mr. Ed. C. Fidler, of 
New York, who bought her last fall. 
Imp and Tyro represented the North Shrews¬ 
bury Ice Boat Club, Drub and Isabel represent¬ 
ing the Pleasure Bay Ice Yacht Club. Drub lead 
for a while, but on the second round of the 
course Imp got the lead and held it to the finish, 
winning the championship flag of the third class.
