Last Saturday’s race of the Man- 
chester One Design class, under the 
auspices of the Manchester Yacht 
club was a pretty one throughout. 
Seven boats were entered, but the 
Clarise, sailed by John Caswell, 
withdrew after fouling the Asteria. 
The boats started away at 2.50 in a 
brisk south easterly breeze over the 
4-2 course, which gave a beat for 
the first leg, and a reach for the 
second and third legs. The Asteria,

sailed by C. E. Hodges, Jr., and the 
Ketchup, sailed by Edith Fabyan 
were close competitors from begin- 
ning to end. The Ketchup had a 
little the better of it on the first leg, 
rounding the mark a little in the 
lead. The Asteria gained slightly on 
the second leg and was able to make 
the mark with a small lead, but not 
enough to keep out of the Ketchup’s 
way. The boats fouled, and each 
skipper protested the other. The 
Asteria finally crossed the line 25 
seconds ahead of the Ketchup. 
Meanwhile the Gnat, winner of the 
first week’s race, was only a few 
lengths behind, having the closest 
kind of a race with the Vosetta, 
sailed by N. Wigglesworth. The two 
boats crossed the line together. The 
judge credited the Gnat with one 
second’s lead over the Vosetta. The 
summary :

“Maria,’ Mr. Dorkins said, with a 
note of exultation in his voice, “I 
turned a trade to-day that netted me 
a clean $2000.” 
“Humph!” ejaculated his spouse, 
in her loftiest you-make-me-tired 
manner; “I went out to-day to hunt 
up a first-class cook, and I got her, 
John—I got her!”—Chicago Tribune,

The reception and dance held by 
the graduating class of the High 
school, at the Town hall last Friday 
was a brilliant social function. 
Long’s orchestra of Manchester fur- 
nished the music. 
It is reported that Charles Park- 
hurst of Gloucester has let his house 
at Burnham’s corner, which has been 
so long unoccupied to Angus Cam- 
eron and family. This is welcome 
news, as the citizens have long de- 
plored the fact that such a noticeable 
residence, situated as it is in the 
center of the village has remained 
unoccupied. 
Prof. Charles Davis of the Uni- 
versity of Maine, and wife and Wil-

ing the past week. 
The ball game between the Metho- 
dists of Beverly and the Essex nine’s, 
which took place on the Town hall 
grounds last Saturday, was a hotly 
contested game from start to finish. 
The Essex boys made the winning 
run in the last inning. ‘‘Holly’’ Luf- 
kin pitched for Essex and showed 
the same ‘‘form’’ which won him 
fame last season. The score was 
3 to 2 in favor of Essex. 
Elliot Mears has accepted a situa- 
tion in Worcester as office manager 
of the Press Steel Corporation. Mr. 
Mears recently graduated from a 
special course of the Harvard school 
of business administration.
