Last Lipton Cup Boat Gone West.—The last 
of the four boats built in Massachusetts to com- 
pete for the Lipton cup for 21-footers, now held 
by the Columbia Y. C., of Chicago, was shipped 
West last Friday. She is Milwaukee, designed by 
Mr. Fred D. Lawley and built by the Lawley Cor- 
poration. She was tried out under sail before 
being made ready for shipment, and was found 
to be perfectly balanced. 
Sea Fox Soitp.—Mr. John G. Alden, of the 
Boston Y. C., has sold his sloop Sea Fox, for- 
merly yawl-rigged, to Mr. E. A. Edwards, of 
Beverly. Sea Fox was built some sixteen or 
seventeen years ago by Williams, of South Bos- 
ton. She is 20ft. 6in. over all, 21ft. waterline, 
Sft. 3in. beam and sft. draft. 
New Launcues.—Messrs. Swasey, Raymond 
and Page report the following orders for power 
craft: 65-foot twin screw cruising launch for Mr. 
H. N. Richards, of Boston; 45-foot hunting cabin 
launch, with 25 horsepower, for Mr. Joseph P. 
Shattuck, of Springfield, Mass.; 44-foot hunting 
cabin launch, with 30 horsepower, for Mr. C. 
Donaldson Tower, of Wolfboro, N. H.; 50-foot 
twin screw cabin launch, 30 horsepower, for Rev. 
John E. Keeley, of Waterville, Me.; 70-foot 
houseboat, 30 horsepower, for Mr. Harry Cem- 
son, of Taunton; 65-foot cruiser, 25 horsepower, 
for Mr. Gerald W. Kirks, of Montreal; 65-foot 
cruiser for Mr. William C. Redfield, Atlantic 
Y. C., to be used at Marblehead; 45-foot cruiser 
for Mr. D. C. Wilson, of New York; 35-foot 
steam tender, 60 horsepower, for Mr. George 
PicatteeNie way Oley sate 
LIGHTNING STRIKES AT MARBLEHEAD.—Light- 
ning struck the flagstaff surmounting the derrick 
at the Stearns & McKay yard, Marblehead, last 
Wednesday and splintered it. The shock was 
sent all over the works and was felt by several 
workmen. Fortunately for all hands, the light- 
ning overlooked several barrels of gasolene which 
were at the base of the derrick. 
YAcHTs NEARING COMPLETION.—At Messrs. 
Burgess & Packard’s yard, Marblehead, the 33- 
rater for Mr. T. K. Lothrop is nearing comple- 
tion. The 22-rater for Mr. A. P. Loring is tim- 
bered out and is ready for planking. It looks 
as though this boat would stand a good chance 
for a leg in’the Lipton cup if she gets the 
handling. The Sonderklasse boat for Mr. 
Lawrence F. Percival will be ready for the water 
about June 17. The 300 horsepower engine for 
the fast ferry Pineland is being installed, and 
she will probably be ready for her trial trip within 
the week. JouN B. KILLEEN. 
Yachts at Jamestown. 
As one of the features of the Jamestown Ex- 
position it is proposed to hold upon Hampton 
Roads and Chesapeake Bay a series of yacht 
races to include all classes, and in order to be 
satisfactory to all the yachting interests of the 
country, these rules should be determined by a 
congress of yachtsmen representing the various 
yachting clubs of the United States and Canada. 
An invitation has been sent out for representa- 
tives from yacht clubs to meet at Norfolk on 
June 22-23, whose functions shall be to devise 
rules and promulgate to the world at large the 
manner in which such races shall be sailed. 
These invitations have been sent to the various 
yacht clubs throughout the United States, and 
already many have accepted the invitation and 
named delegates; others will be represented by 
proxies. The representation promises to be 
large as each day acceptances are being received.

City of Boston. 
Dorchester, Mass.—Saturday, June 9. 
Four classes of sailing yachts and three of 
power boats were provided for in the open race 
given by the City of Boston, under the joint 
auspices of the Boston, Dorchester and Savin 
Hill yacht clubs, on Saturday, June 9, in con- 
nection with the 276th anniversary of the settle- 
ment of Dorchester, now a part of Boston. 
There was a fresh S.W. breeze, and the racing 
was good. Class A was well bunched at the 
start, but Alpha soon went out ahead and was 
never caught. In class B, there was a most 
exciting race between the 18ft. knockabout 
Mirage II., and the arft. raceabout Jacobin. 
They started well together and were not more 
than 20s. apart at any time during the race. 
Mirage II. finished first by 8s. Josephine and 
Iris were first and second all around in the 
Cape cat class, but Iris lost second place to 
Hustler on allowance. Argo won in class E. 
Llewelyn won in the first division of power 
boats, Mischief in the second division and Dis- 
turber in the power dories. 
Sir THomAs TO Visir AMERICA.—Sunday last, 
Mr. R. A. Smith arrived on board the SS. Celtic. 
He has been touring Europe, and while on the 
Riviera had been the guest of Sir Thomas on 
the Erin. Mr. Smith stated that Sir Thomas 
would probably arrange to be in Chicago to 
referee the races, for which he is offering a cup. 
As to the entry of Shamrock III., nothing definite 
could be learned as to whether she would start 
for the King’s Cup at Newport. 
There is not much doubt that, if Sir Thomas 
Lipton comes during the season, many of the 
rumors that have been flying about will material- 
ize or be extinguished. We may certainly expect 
the Baronet to do something.
