wind WI
blowing sti1ly from the south, and the whit
caps came rolling In heavily, driving tn
new boat OF the Potomac Club, that had ven
tured out for the first time, back to George
town. The light shell OF tho Analostans
however, with the skillful management o
her coxswain and experienced crew, rod
the waves triumphantly. Taking the Vlr
ginls channel, they arrived safely Of th,
Arsenal point without more damage than q
little voting from shipping q heavy sea oc
casionally. Here the first crew OF the Ana.
costa Club - Peyton, coxswain; French,
stroke, and Dodge, bow-awaited them In
their beautiful outrigger, Minnehaha,' "
when both boats proceeded 10 tho house oil
somely aud hospitality entertained. Aftel
an hour spent In social converse, and do
stroying all traces OF refreshments, the Ana
lostans took their leave amid the cheers and
good wishes OF their generous rivals. Pull
Ing home through heavy swell and ptchy
darkness, the strength OF the "Lightfoot "
and endurance OF her crew was satisfactorily
and severely tested: This mutual expressioI
oil good Will and iriendly feehng among the
members OF the boating fraternity speak
well for the high character OF the gentlemen
composing the respective CLUBS and SHOULD
