a union with the Pavonia. The Newark
club intends moving to a better location,
and is looking for a site flor a club house
on Newark Bay or the Kills. The club
has three thousand dollars in the treas
ury. The recent encroachments of the
railroads lave caused the PayOnia Clubs
members to seriously consider the pro-
position of the Newark yachtsmen, as
they believe they viii have to vacate
within a short time and leave Communl-
paw Bay.
The steam launches Cricket, Dauntless
and Princess, of the Dauntless Yacht
Club, are the only boats of the fleet that
are to be seen about the battered club
house,
Treasurer William H. Boynton, of the
Dauntless Club, has returned after a

ments for a masquerade ball at Coopers'
Hall on November IS.
Ex-Commodore H. H. Holmes and a

The storm beaten and broken sloop
Grace Darling has been hauled up on the
beach near the Pavonia Yacht Club house
to be repaired. tg4
The Annie Forsythe is on the beach at
thel Jersey City Yacht Clubs ground
being oyerhauled by Captain Alexander
Roe. She will compete in two races. She
is entered in the Bay Ridge regatta which
Will be sailed tomorrow, and in the re-
gatta of the Newark Bay Yacht Club,
which will be sailed on Monday. The
prolonged storm has greatly interfered
with the work of putting the yacht In
racing trim.
Captain Roe will sail the sloop For
sythe, not the Alex f., as she has been
frequently called, in the regatta of the
Columbia Yacht Club next Thursday.
The Bachelor has been sold to a Mr..
Thompson and is now high and dry near
the Jersey City Yacht Club being calked
and painted.
Captain Bob Donshea's Knight Tenn
plar had her topmast carried away yester-
day by the sloop GrowIer colliding with
her. Tee Knight Templar was at anchor
and the Growler was cruising around and
was Il too close to Captain Donshea's
boat.
The committee of the Jersey City
Yacht Club has made an investigation
n will correct the records of the For
sythe and Wabasso and award the prize
in class 4 to the former by eleven
minutes. In the recent regatta the boats
did not go over the course fixed by the
committee. They were the only two
boats in the class and Captain
lenged Captain Roe 70 sail
around the southwest spit. The
challenge was accepted. The Forsythe
| reached home when the Wabasso was off
the sandbar. In some way the time keep
ers gave the race to the WabasSo by one
minute. The mistake has been rectified.
| The committee gives the race in class ID
to the Annie Forsythe. The first decision
was in favor of the Dove, who was given
an allowance as q ~ feet 6 inch boat. The
Dove has been measured and is IA feet
long. This reduces the time allowance
and gives the race to the Annie Forsythe
by a fraction of a minute.
