sembled crews as Captain Marsland took in his 
sprit topsail from the dinghy. Mist, with the 
genial Harry Jackson in command of a crew 
bronzed and toughened by their previous sail to 
Bermuda on one of the schooners, tried to gather 
all the yachts about him and nearly succeeded. 
limit of five hours after the 
the judges reported aboard 
were figured out and the 
prizes distributed, for Mist handicapped herself 
to the extent of being the treasure ship of the 
fleet and carried all the prizes. 
Nutmeg got the prize for the fastest time over 
the course. Frances, a little 2oE>ft. catboat, 
sailed by her owner, G. W. Robinson, of the 
Later when the time 
first arrival was up 
Mist. The winners 
Harlem Y. C., won first corrected time prize 
by a large margin; Nutmeg got second. Little 
Rhody third. The fourth and fifth prize are so 
close a re-measurement is necessary before de¬ 
cision can be made, as no regular certificate was 
handed in, but the chances are Grace II. will win 
fourth and Jolly Tar fifth prize. The yawl 
Tamerlane wins the special prize for handicaps.

The Motor Boat Race. 
Unfortunately for those who are interested 
in motor boats, the secretary who had this race 
in hand went to Bermuda, and with no one to 
further it, it is surprising anyone started. Three 
boats came to the starting line at 6:io P. M. 
Saturday, June 20, after the thirty sailboats had 
been sent away, and these three made a good 
race to Block Island accompanied by the motor 
boat Marie as convoy. Kittrois, owned by F. D. 
Gheen, finished first at 7 146 A. M. Sunday morn¬ 
ing. Eronel finished at 8:55 an( l Ne Ne Mosha 
finished at .9:35. The elapsed times being- 
13.36.16, 14.45 and 15.25 hours each. 
So far as the judges can tell without the 
measurements Eronel looks like the winner. Ihe 
prize in this class was offered by Thomas Flem¬ 
ing Day, and to own it it must be won twice.

COMMODORE HARRY JACKSON ON THE MIST. 
Indian Harbor Long Distance Race. 
The Indian Harbor fleet made a spectacular 
finish as each in turn burned its _ distinguishing 
colored light as it passed Bartlett’s Reef Light¬ 
ship. 
Leaving Greenwich between 8 130 and 9 o’clock 
on the morning of Tuesday, June 23, eleven 
yachts beat to windward all the way to Bart¬ 
lett’s Reef, a distance of seventy-two miles, fin¬ 
ishing in just a little over twelve hours. The 
57-footers, Aurora and Istalena. were the first, 
Aurora taking I2h. 29m. 49s. to do the seventy- 
two miles. 
Gardenia won in the smaller class of sloops, 
her time being 13b. 32m. 49s. Eclipse won in 
the schoner class, time 14b. 51m. 41s. 
In a thick fog at the finish the schooners 
Grampus and Tammany came into collision and 
both were damaged considerably. 
It has been arranged that the Manhasset Bay 
Y. C. shall give a race for the New York Y. C. 
30-footers to New London to join the New York 
Y. C. squadron, which will rendezvous there on 
Aug. 6 for the annual cruise. Mr. Henry L. 
Maxwell has presented a cup for the races and 
the Manhassets will give a second prize. 
The boats will race to New Haven on Aug. 
4 and to New London on Aug. 5. Mr. Maxwell 
suggested the contests and it has been well re¬ 
ceived by the owners of the 30-footers. It will 
give them seme good racing before the squadron 
leaves for Newport, which it is claimed will be 
very agreeable, as these boats will not care to 
go around Cape Cod with the larger vessels.
