SCHOONERS.

The course laid out and followed was from the east
side OF Long Island between RainsfOrd and Gallops
Island thence out through Nantasket roads, leaving
Georges Island or the port hand and passing out
through the main channel. The craft were allowed
to take the whole range OF Nantasket roads, leaving
No. on False Spit on the port hand, on the buoys
on Teddy rocks and of Point Alderton thence around
the Bell buoy OF the Graves leaving II on the port
hand; thence back around the Harding bell buoy
leaving 1t on the starbOard hand; and thence back
over the same course to the judges bOat-he course
being reckoned at exactly eighteen nautical miles.
The signal gun for starting was fired at exactly
thrtyeght minutes past two and the yachts started
amid the cheers OF the multitude. The Junata Ouled
her chain In the act OF slipping and the last to
get away The yacht Nette got the first and best start
OF the schoOners and the Cyte was ahead among the
slOops, and In fact OF the whole feet About three
quarters OF mile out the sOOps Clytie and Violet
pressed them closely In passing the buoy or Point
Alderton the Violet was ahead, the Clytie half
minute behind the Nette minute, and the Pilgrim,
Juniata, the Fanchon, the Curlew, the Columbia,
MIST Mercury and Ella all respectively from one to
two minutes behind each other in the order in which
the names are given. Upon reaching the Harding
bell buoy the Clytie shot by the Violet, and made the
turn not more than fifteen seconds ahead. The
Juniaa at this time had passed the Pilgrim and
closely chasing the Nettie but without effect. The
posltlons or the leading craft when they passed
around the Graves was the Nettie first the Juniata
minute and three-quarter5 behind the Pilgrim four
minutes behind the Juniata, the Clytie minute be-
mind the Pilgrim the Violet minute and quarter be-
hind the Clytie and the Curlew five minutes and
quarter behind the Violet. When the yachts were
coming In on the homestretch there was the great
est interest and excitement among the spectators.
The Junata came in first amid great applause and
was hOnored by a salute from the schOOlshp and
three cheers from the boys, who had manned the
yards in genuine nautical shape The Clytie came
in second and was also loudly cheered, after which
came the Pilgrim and Violet almost even, the latter
however, being reckOned as a trne in advance. The
Nettle came next and the other yachts followed in
an almost undistingushable mass several lengths

miles were made by the five leading yachts as fol-

From the Evening Telegram June 80
With all respect to the enthusiastic and fraterna
character Of the great International Schuetzenfest
now being held at jones' Wood, there Is point OF
vital importance which has not received the atten-
ton and consideration 1t deserves. The fifty six tar
gets are located north of the wood, and beyond
them, directly within range OF fire, are number Of
residences. The only protection the citizens Of this
quarter of the city have from stray bullets which
may miss the target is high fence Of boards, with
filling In OF earth and rags only eight inches thick
This the citizens directly interested in the matter
many Of them have removed their families from the
dangerous locality. Now there may be no real cause
for fear this score; but when shooting festival
with the most improved kind OF rines is per-
mitted TO take PLACE whiting the city limits
no precauti0h necessary to protect the lives Of
citizens should be neglected. The proper,
recognized authorities OF the city should have
examined this 'backing" OF the targets and not
trusted to the representations OF any private organi
zaton. Life has been already sacrificed In the
ton Of this pasteboard structure and the testimony
Of the Cor0ner's inquest ELECTED the fact that the
foreman who superintended its building was drunk
the greater part OF the time What security IL there
then for human life trust only to the protesta-
tons of such q mann At a shooting festival held
some time ago in the very same place stray bullet
actually wounded man on Blackwells Island, and
there is no sufficient guarantee at the present one
against a similar or perhaps worse disaster. The
authorities should take steps Immediately to nvest
gate this matter, ut least to allay the fears ol the
,..-'dents in the neghborhood OF Jones' Wood.
