Yacht Club was one of the 18th of June Incl
dents here to-day, Among those deeply inte-
rested in aquatic sports IT was, of course, the
chief event of the day, and those chiefly In
terested in aquatics assembled In great num-
bers to look upon the flying yachts as they con-
tested for the pending prizes
There was a heavy fog all the day long; and a
threatened shower during the forenoon. The
threats were partially fulfilled during the latter
part of the day, whenIthe sport would, under 9TH
er circumstances, have been at its height. There
was also an absence OF wind, and various other
drawbacks of a minor nature, which the COM
peting yachts had 10 contend against; but, not
be, and Will be, pron@unced a success, when 1t
is considered that yachting is new but yet
contagious epidemic hereabouts.
The regatta to-day was among yachts Of three
different classes; the first class comprising all
yachts measuring thirty-elght feet and upwards,
the second comprising all measuring twenty
six feet and less than thirty eight and the third
comprising all measuring eighteen feet and
under twenty-six, the measurement being the
length on the water line added to one-third the
difference between that and the length over all
aft of stern.
The first-class yachts passed over a course of
twenty. two miles, and their respective sailing
Qualities may be judged by the following table,
which shows the order in which they came in,
after completing the distances, as declared by
the Judges after very mature deliberations
