Atlantic Y. C. Race Week. 
The features of the race week of the Atlantic 
Y C were races by the 65-footers outside Sandy 
Hook, the series of races for the Thompson cup 
for the Q class and a series of races for the b 
class for a cup offered by Commodore F M. 
Wilson. There were many other races and the 
week was a great success. It showed, too, that 
racing down the -Bay is not dead, as so many 
have declared, and that the yachts can find bet¬ 
ter winds there than they can on the Sound. 
Two regattas were sailed on Wednesday th 
opening day. The 65 and 46-footers raced out¬ 
side the hook over a windward and leewar 
course thirty miles in length and the smaller 
yachts raced over the Gravesend Bay courses 
fn the afternoon. There was a strong westerly 
wind outside and the course was made to ee 
ward first. Winsome was first over the line, 
followed bv Istalene and Aurora, and Aspiran 
led Gardenia in her class. Ista ena led around 
the mark and took the port tack for the Long 
Island shore and Aurora followed Winsome 
took the starboard tack. Later there was a 
sharp wind squall and then the wind hauled to 
the northwest, allowing the yachts to read 
home Istalena won the race, with Aurora sec¬ 
ond Aspirant led Gardenia all over the course 
and finished 4m. 51s- m. the lead > but she loSt 
the race on corrected time. , 
There were eight starters in the first race for 
the Thompson cup, which was won by Princes 
with Edmee second. Florence lost her mast 
jibing at the Bensonhurst mark. Cat s-Eye.won 
the first of the series of the S class with M 
and F second. The summaries.

SECOND DAY. 
There was too much wind for the larger 
>oats on Thursday, and they did not go outside, 
tut the smaller yachts raced in Gravesend Bay 
n the afternoon. Florence had a new mast, but 
;ould not get it rigged in time to start, and 
Princess won again with More Joy second and 
Sat’s Eye won in the S class. In the Q class

THIRD DAY. 
Aurora turned the tables on Istalena in the 
next race sailed off the Hook and won the race 
over the triangular course of thirty miles. 
Aurora led all around the course. On the 
second round the other two made slight gains, 
but could not catch her. The wind was vari¬ 
able and light. In the afternoon Florence won 
the third race for the Thompson _ cup with 
Eleanor second and Soya third. Piincess fin¬ 
ished sixth, but she had won two previous races 
so took the trophy on points and will hold it 
until next j’ear. Cat’s Eye won in the S class 
by 2S. and she won the Wilson cup. The times:

Corinthian Y. C. 
A race was sailed off Marblehead on Satur¬ 
day, Sept. 4, for Sonder boats that had not been 
selected to meet the German yachts. The prize j 
was a cup offered by F. M. Hoyt, of the Larch- 
mont Y. C., and the race was managed by the j 
Corinthian Y. C. They started off the club 
house in the afternoon and sailed a course of j 
12% miles in length in a fresh south wind. All 
were bunched at the start, but on the windward 
leg Demon, Spokane and Skeezix took the lead. 
Crooner was next and she held fast to the 
southwest and was favored by a shift which 
gave her the lead at the weather mark. Crooner i 
won the race with Demon second. The times
