Manchester Yacht Club’s Invitation 
Race. 
The annual invitation race of the 
Manchester Yacht Club was sailed 
Wednesday afternoon, being the 
race postponed from July 3d. Three 
classes were scheduled to race, the 
class P boats, sonderklasse and Man- 
chester one-design. For some rea- 
son the ‘‘P’’ boats, which have had 
a busy week at Marblehead, failed 
to come over and only two of the 
sonder boats entered. Herbert 
Sears’ boat Sally, which came over 
for the race, did not start. The out- 
side course of six and three-quarter 
miles was sailed in a stiff northwest 
wind, by far the heaviest of the sea- 
son, making a decidedly heavy chop 
into which the boats pounded and 
plunged all showing their seaworthi- 
ness to a remarkable degree. 
The start was off Whalesback 
buoy, the first leg being a broad 
reach to a mark off Kettle island, 
the second a reach to the buoy at 
sea, and the third was a dead beat 
home. Miss May Loring was at the 
stick in the Panther, which she 
sailed with remarkable skill. Her 
rival, the Ellen, got away with a 
good lead of more than a minute. 
Six one-design boats started, get- 
ting away well bunched, excepting 
the Hiccough, which was a minute

astern of the bunch, the Vosetta set- 
ting the pace. 
On the second leg the sonders 
changed positions, the Panther hav- 
ing gained rapidly in her windward 
work, while on the last leg she 
gained materially by standing up 
much better in the heavy wind and 
sea than her rival, and at the gun 
was leading her over three minutes 
and a half. 
The six one-design boats made a 
fairly even race up to the second 
turn, when they spht tacks, three 
taking a long tack inshore, while the 
Asteria, Hiccough and Terrapin 
stood over well toward Baker’s isl- 
and, taking another tack for the line. 
It showed good judgment on _ the 
part of the latter three, for they se- 
eured a considerable advantage, the 
Gnat leading the trio at the finish, 
the Asteria following closely. The 
Gnat finished first with a lead of one 
minute and one second. 
A mix-up was threatened by the 
Terrapin and Hiccough, the latter 
being in line for third place, but the 
Terrapin crowded her into the 
judge’s boat, and the Fabyan boat 
was obliged to come about to avoid a 
collision, losing her position to her 
rival.

Always say a kind word if you 
can, if only that it may come in, 
perhaps, with a singular opportune- 
ness, entering some mournful man’s 
darkened room like a beautiful fire- 
fly, whose happy convolutions he 
cannot but watch, forgetting his 
many troubles—Arthur Helps.
