Gas Engines and Lanivches. 
! Their Principles, Types and Management. By Francis 
K. Grain. 132 pages. Price $1.25. 
Here is a pocket manual indispensable to every man 
who uses a motor-boat. It deals in simple untechnicai 
fashion with the running of the marine gas engine, and 
I with the difficulties that the marine gas engineer is likely 
to meet with. These engines are described, some pages 
are devoted to launches in general, with practical advice 
to the man who contemplates purchasing a power boat. 
The main feature of the book, however, is a clear descrip- 
■ tion of the difficulties met with in running a gas engine, 
their causes and how to remedy them. In this discussion 
all technicalities are avoided, and the author has boiled 
down a vast amount of practical knowledge into small 
i space and into every-day language. The amateur power 
boat man needs this book, for it will save him much time 
and trouble, and probably not a little money.

New York Y. C. R»ce. 
1 he first half of the New York Y. C.’s sixtieth 
annual regatta was sailed on June 20 off Glen 
Cove, L. I., in light airs and calms. The finish, 
however, was a beautiful one in a brisk whole- 
sail breeze that put considerable life into th.e 
fleet of big fellows. 
Two crack up to date schooners, Ingomar and 
Queen, had a splendid fight for supremacy, but 
the old Eclipse, far astern when the two newer 
craft finished, saved her large time allowance 
and so won the Bennett cup for schooners. 
Effort won from Weetamoe and Irolita on 
time, though Weetamoe crossed the finish line 
first. Winsome won from her two new sister 
boats, Aurora and Istalena. Gardenia won from 
Kestrel, and Alera, of the New York thirties, 
not only won in her class, but also receives the 
Bennett cup for sloops. The summary:

Atlantic Y. C. 
• In the Atlantic Y. C.’s mid-week regatta of 
June .19 Soya defeated both Joy and Vingt 
I rois, while Gunda in the Lipton cup class 
beat Nereid, neither Bensonhurst or M. and F. 
appearing to take part in this race. 
Both divisions sailed over an eight mile tri¬ 
angle with points off Sea Gate,. Fort Hamilton 
and Bensonhurst. It was a close reach on the 
port tack from the starting line to the Sea Gate 
mark, followed by a run with spinnakers to staf- 
board to Fort Hamilton, on the wind to Ben¬ 
sonhurst and another reach home. The course 
was sailed twice and the marks were all left 
on the starboard hand. The summary: 
Sloops—Class Q—Start, 3:15—Course 8 Miles.

Both motor boats, Ailsa Craig and Idaho, have 
returned to the United States. They left Ber¬ 
muda early Sunday morning, June 16 , and ar¬ 
rived at Sandy Hook early Wednesday morning, 
having had a fine weather passage across. 
Idaho put in to Cape May, where' an enthu¬ 
siastic welcome was accorded Mr. W. B. Stearns 
and his crew.

Some idea of the seaworthiness of small boats 
is well illustrated in the recent rescue of a 
French fisherman, Louis Vollet, who with his 
dory mate became separated from their schooner 
Mimosa, of St. Milo, France. A sudden gale 
not only made them drift from their schooner, 
but almost capsized the dory, losing Vollet’s 
mate overboard. Alone, with only ten days’ 
provisions and rain water to drink, he drifted 
for fourteen days before the S. S. Carmania, of 
the Cunard line picked him up.
