with Pilkington as his partner, was at the
Long Island regatta, Bay Ridge, June %,
and they won the championship of Long
Island in en- 4s over a mile and q half
course. AtAlbany, July 4, the team won
the double scull race. Maggie also rowed
in the senior four-Oared shell race the same
day, but the crew finished third
At the national regatta, held at Pull
man, on Lake Calumet, with Pilkington as
partner. they won the championship of the
country in the double SOULS, one mile and
half straightaway. In the first trial heat
the Nets won in the fast time Of SIN. 26s.,
which is the fastest time ever made on
lake water, but as it was trial heat the
time was not taken as record. The final
heat saw young Maggie and Pilkington go
over the line first, after hard tussle with
the Baysiders, of Canada, and the Raven
woods, of Long Island The following day
the team won the double in the Mississippi
Valley association regatta, held on the
same course, defeating three other crews.
Up to this time Nagle and Pilkington
had not suffered defeat as double scull
team. On Labor day, Sept. 9, 1889, how
ever, the team were defeated by the
Ravenswood double. Last fall, at the Har-
lem regatta, Maggie rowed in the Nets eight
cared shell crew, which finished second.

Soap Bath for Cleaning Jewelry.


An excellent bath for cleaning watches,
jewelry, etc, according to The Union Hor-
logere, is made with soap, ninety-two
grains; ammonia liquor. LIST grains; wa
ter, one quart. Shave the soap and melt It
in the water. Then add the ammonia
There are still a goodly number of watch
makers who prefer the good old way of
cleaning watch or a clock movement with
soap and water and good brush, and they
Will find the above given formula entirely
TO their satisfaction. Pour the bath into
a receptacle containing the parts to be
cleaned, but take care that they are entirely
submerged, as without this precaution the
parts exposed TO the air would soon be COW
cred with an oxidation which can be re-
moved only with difficulty.
The pieces if well immersed may for all
that be left in the bath for a whole day
without any danger whatever: steel pieces
are not whatever attacked, but generally
speaking from five to six minutes are am
ply sufficient to cleanse them thoroughly
The bath may be used for a long time, and
Is thrown away only when it is too dirty
or when it has lost its force. When not in
use keep it in a well stoppered bottle.
Dry the articles in sawdust, TO which add
little Spanish white A slight brushing
will then bring out its pristine polish
This bath is largely preferable to the ordi-
nary ways of cleaning with benzine, cya-
hide, alcohol and chalks, etc.
TO reiterate, keep the bottle with the
bath well corked to avoid the evaporation
of the ammonia, which, should it occur.
would remove from the bath its principal
cleaning virtue.
