trophy is the Iris cup offered by Francis M. Whitehouse, 
who has returned from his cruise to New Londan in his 
yacht, “‘Iris.’’ The harbor illumination will be omitted 
this year. Mr. Whitehouse, donor of the Iris cup, is a 
brother-in-law of Allison Armour and George Armour, 
who are, and have been sojourning on the North Shore, 
the former in his fine yacht, ‘‘Utowana,’’ and the latter 
at the Whitehouse estate, as Mr. and Mrs. Whitehouse 
have spent most of the summer cruising in the ‘‘Iris.’’ 
The *‘Utowana’’ has been the center of much entertain- 
ing since her arrival here, there having been dinners on 
board for Baron de Rosen, the J. Harrington Walkers, 
the Boylston Beals and others. The Allison Armours 
left Tuesday of this week for Europe for a year’s so- 
journ on the Mediterranean. The ‘‘Utowana’’ will also 
go there, and be used for cruising in those waters.

of the Industrial School for Crippled and Deformed 
Children at 13 Beach street, Manchester. The shop, 
under the personal supervision of Francis J. Cotting of 
Pride’s Crossing, president, has met with decided suc- 
cess. North Shore people have given it liberal patron- 
age this season and it will probably become a perma- 
nent thing.
