The day passed without any serious acci- dent either to the yachts or on board the Hall, lost her topsail, detaining her some what. The judges were O. H. Osgood of Norwich. P. L. Ives of Boston and B. E.
 Mallory of Mystic, all experienced yachts
 men. The race will be sailsd over again to- day, the boats leaving at 10 a, "a. and sailing over the club course, starting from off Par dee's Bar buoy and proceeding down the harbor leaving Luddington's Rock buoy, Pond and Welsh's Point buoys and the buoy off the southWard of Charles Island on the starboard hand, thence to and around 8 stake boat Qocated due southwest from Lud dington's Rock buoy at proper distance to make ten-mile course), returning over the same course, leaving Charles Island, Welsh's Point and Luddington's Rock buoys on the port hand to the starting point.
 The stake boat will be in position to-day 1 and with good weather desperaed effort
 will be made by several of the yachts to get ! the first prizes.
 tba a1eoar,' steam yacht Sophia which yester- day made bersen conspicuous by helping
 others out of trouble, ana .- no much cannot m be said in commendatiOn of the courU~-s t owner, MT. c. H. Osgood. Before the Stu. :. for down the harbor she was going about like a Good Samaritan. Four different crafts, whose owners ought to have well known where there was deep enough water, were pulled out of the mud and helped on their way rejoicing It was done at the risk of
 the Sophia's going aground herself, and
 through the generosity of her commander. One of the prettiest sights during
 the regatta was 8 brush between the steamer John H. Starin and the Sophia,
 the latter, however, proving too smart even for big side-wheeler. This is not surpris-
 ing though when it is taken into considera-
 tion that the Sophia is probably the fastest yacht in her class in the country. ''Where is the stake boat2' was the constantly re-
 peated question on board the Sophia as well
 as on the other boats, and notwithstanding
 that mile after mile of water was swiftly
 crossed to and fro, nothing could be seen of 1t. Finally, it was deemed best by the
 judges, who were yachtsmen of long ex- per1ence, to establish 8 stake boat some
 where, so that the boys need not hunt all night for place to start for home from.
 There were about eight hundred persons on board the Starin. The company on board was both large and select. The American band furnished the music The perfect weather and the beautiful sight the fleet of yachts presented was the theme of converse tion until it was succeeded by the inquiry passed from mouth to mouth, "Where in the world is the stake boatg' The Starin started for home at twenty minutes of 4, ar irving home after deligh tful sail at about 6.
 The excursion was most delightful one, and nothing occurred to mar the pleasure of the occasion. The refreshment supplies and arrangements seemed to give good satisfac- ton.

Busy Times In Tearing Down Tom
 Ifnsonss.
 Tomlinson's bridge will very soon be no more. The demolition is already far ad- vanced. The roof and sides of the covered part have been taken down and a consider able hole has been made in the planking. All of the bridge is to be removed except the part near the toll house. Already the landscape in that locality is much changed in appearance, and many old citizens who have retired from active life wander down to the locality to take parting glimpse of the remains of the old structure. The wood is being carted away rapidly. A good deal of it is sold on the spot to buyers ready to cart away what they buy. Some of the old tim bers of the bridge are found to be ''as sound as nut" Several enterprising men are making an honest penny by transporting people from one side of the river to the other in small boats. The contract for the mason work required for the new bridge has been awarded to Robert Redfeld, the same who recently did the heavy stone. work for the new bridge across the tunnel under the Hartford railroad track at James street in this city.
