Here is a pocket manual indispensable to every man 
tho uses a motor-boat. It deals in simple, untechnical 
jashion with the running of the marine gas engine, and 
‘ith the difficulties that the marine gas engineer is likely 
> meet with. These engines are described, some pages 
re devoted to launches in general, with practical advice 
> che man who contemplates purchasing a power boat. 
‘he main feature of the book, however, is a clear descrip- 
on of the difficulties met with in running a gas engine, 
1eir causes and how to remedy them. In this discussion 
ll technicalities are avoided, and the author has boiled 
own a vast amount of practical knowledge into small 
pace and into every-day language. The amateur power 
oat man needs this book, for it will save him much time 
nd trouble, and prebably not a little money.

held. High speed craft, such as Dixie and Den, 
raced for international championship. Dixie 
broke down. X.P.D.N.C. won in the national 
championship, beating Skedaddle and Speedway. 
Sparrow won in the interstate class so far as can 
be announced until Speedway, Jr., is measured. 
So many measurements in the other classes 
were lacking that no definite results could be 
approximated. The summary:

THURSDAY, SEPT. 206. 
The second race in the championship series 
was run under far more favorable conditions 
than any day heretofore. Twenty-one boats 
started, but four of these broke down or with- 
drew. : 
Dixie, looked upon as the star performer, had 
had trouble ever since she tried to start in the 
first race, and it was found to-day she had a 
cracked cylinder, so she withdrew from the 
races. Den did not start at all, so Irene took a 
first position making her score a tie with Den 
for the championship which the next race will 
decide. Irene covered the thirty miles in th. 
5m. 6s. X.P.D.N.C. won a second time in the 
national championship class defeating Skedaddle. 
Speedway did not finish. The times are given
