THE PURITAN AND HER SISTER
What Our Great slOOps will Do Next
Yesr-The New Puritan that is to DO
Euflt
FROM ne Bonop Adoertiser.


From ne Boston Ados-tiser.
A rumor has recently been circulating
in New York yachting circles to the effect
that Mr.. J. Malcolm Forbes, the present
owner OF the yacht Puritan, is intending
to take her across the Atlantic next
spring for the purpose Of challenging the
owner Of the yacht Geuesta, and sailing
on the appointed English course race or
series Of races for the BrentOn's Rect cup.
This cup, it will be remembered, was one
of the prizes which the Genesta took
home with her last summer.
Upon inquiry Of Mr.. Forbes yesterday
it was found that he does not sustain the
rumor, having no such intention as that
aseribed 10 him. The cup was at one
time held by him, having been won In
1872 by the Yacht Rambler. then owned
by his father and borrowed for that occa-
sion by himself. He SAYS, however, that
it caused no particular regret to himself
and to many other American yachtsmen
that the cup was carried OIL by the
Genesta last season. His reason is that
the prescribed course is ot such
great length that the winning or losing in
competition for the cup Is no satisfac-
tory certificate OF the sailing qualities Of
a yacht. Mr.. Forbes accordingly feels
that there is no particular inducement TO
seek to recover the cup, deemlng the prop
er'test of the sailing ability Of a yacht 10
be race over course not exceeding 40
or 20 miles, which, in a respectable breeze,
can be gone over in few hours.
AS to the programme Of next season for
the Puritan. he said, none has been ar
ranged, and no particular intentions have
been formed in regard to her. Instead of
going to England with the yacht on any
pretence, Mr.. Forbes feels that it will be
the proper thing for him to hold her sub
iect to the call of the New York Yacht
Club until fair opportunity shall be bad
70 demonstrate the worthiness OF some
other American yacht to enter the lists
/ with the Galatea. The sloop yacht which
! Gen. c. J. Paine has projected it is ex-
/ pected viii prove thus worthy, and it may
( be that improvements can be put upon
| the Priscilla that will develop her sailing
qualities so that she will be accepted by
the New York club to compete.
| Neither alternative can be chosen
until a series Of trial races shall be
had, in some of which it will reasonably
be expected that the Puritan will take
part. Gen. Paine's yacht-building enter
prise is 20 far advanced that model and
drawings for specifications have been
/ proposed, but up TO recent date no con-
tract for the construction had been made.
! The success of the Puritan has served as
a guide in respect TO modelling the pro-
I posed new yacht. and any improvements
which the experience OF the Puritan has
suggested have been combined therein. 1t
/ is expected that she will be an ADLER
vessel than the Puritan, possessed OF
greater stability and sailing power. She
will lie built OF wood, and her length will
be IS feet, The length of the Galatea is
$3.50 feet. The Priscilla Is an iron vessel,
80 feet in length.

Later he was seized with excru-

tremlties began 20 wither. This con-
tinued and the epidermis began TO scale

skin over the flesh. Toe body retains its
flesh. but the limbs nave wthered and
dried until the fingers ana toes seem like
sticks ready 70 drop OF.
The disease also exists IN three or four
other families, all related. Physicians
from DEBORAH pronounce il leprosy, and
