PERTH AMBOY YACHT CLUB REGATTA.
DRIFTING RAcz-THE NAMES AND Tnn OF
THE WINNING YACHTR

A DRIFTING RACZ-THE NAMES AND TnCH OF
THE WINNING YACHTs
The Grand Union Regatta OF the Perth Amboy
Yacht Club took place yesterday on Rarltan Bay,
and although 1t was . success 80 far as the num-
Der OF competing yachts was concerned, yet,
owing to the absence OF anything like q good sail
ing breeze there was but little excitement or
interest exhibited In the result OF the yari-
Gus races. In fact the Perth Amboy Club met
with about the same kind OF weather that until
this season, has for so many years visited the
New York Yacht Club-viz., almost a dead calm.
The great attraction in the whole affair centred
in the Chi Psi and the Kitty McGinn, for both
yachts are very nearly matched In size ana have
about an equal number OF admirers. There has
also existed an intense rivalry between the pro-
prietors OF these crafts. and as 1t became known
that they had each backed their ''ship" to win,
their friends followed suit, until there were some
thousands Of dollars put up on the result to De
decided by either one beating the other, FIRST In
to win. The regatta caused quite an excitement
In the little town OF Perth Amboy, the innabitants
turning out en- HlGsse to witness the contests.
There were also present along tho shore large
number OF visitors from the outlying districts and
from New York, prominent among whom was the
irrepresslble Frank Bates Commodore OF tho
Long Island Yacht Club.
THE ENTRIES
were as folows-an starting but the Jeanette.

II became apparent that the race throughout
would De Dut mere drifting AFFAIR, as turned
out 10 be, and any attempt 70 describe the move
ments OF the yachts would be tedious aud weary
ing in the extreme. The only remarks that can
be made are that the Lula although she won in
her class by time allowance, was badly sailed
throughout and won the race more by LUCK than
Judgment. Her antagonist VINO took second
prize the Fidget, also made grave mistake on
the second turn round the course, or sne must
nave beaten the Lula BADLY. The Chi Psi and
Hitty McGinn were both well handled
aud kept close together all through,
and finally passed the stake boat with
only ten seconds difference IN the time Taking
into consideration the tine OF the start the Bltty
McGinE gained nine seconds on her adversary on
actual time. THIS SHOWS how evenly the boats
are matched although it should be borne In mind
that the HItty McGinn would nave TO give the Chi
