BmsToL. r. l.. Feb. 20.-The Wasp. the rae.

rcshofrs for archibald Rogers Of New York.
was launched this morning from the south
shop of the company. and now lies at the pier
ready to receive her spars and rigging. The
launch was successful in every respect.
Neither Mr.. Rogers nor Capt Charley Barr. thu
boats skipper. was present. though both had
been expected. together with several New
York yachtsmen.
Tho hour set for tho launch was q o'clock,
and it was not more than a minute after that
tho. well grensed ways, She moved quite
rapidly at first. but was checked somewhat as
the ond OF the ways was neared. and finally
Slipped casily of the end. She quickly gained
her proper line OF fotaton. and rested on the
water as gracefully AZ the most ardent yachts
man or tho most critical OF naval architects
could desire She floats we'll above her de-
signed water line. and has plenty to spare for
her spars. rigging. md other fittings The
yacht Is painted black. and her beauty is
greatly enhanced by gilt stripe Just under
the rail- She Is 40 feet water line. II feet 10
inches beam. and about IL feet q inches
draught. with an overall length Of " feet.
She was designed to beat the Gloriana. and
good judges seem to think she will do it. Ow-
ing to the absence of tho owner. there was no
formal christening Of the yacht, but every one
could read her name in neat gilt letters on the
stern. The Wasp will be fitted out at once. so
that she may be ready for trial early in the
spring.

Boston. Feb. 20-A gigantic scheme is being
considered by several very prominent and
wealthy admirers OF both trotting and running
horses In this vicinity. to construct and main
tain mile track ii, this city. which shall lie
used for running races.
Such an enormous capital Is held by these
men. and their position is SO high. both in tho
social and turf world. that 1t seems rs If tho
scheme would prevail when othors would fail.
One very important thing in connection with
this proposed track is tho intention of those
Interested to locate it right in tho city: SO nc
cessible in fact. that it may be reached by
walking This is a new thing. AS elsewhere
tracks are located at some distance from tho
cities and patrons of races are forced to
great expenditure and loss Of time The
syndicate Of sporting men could very readily
purchase trac ks already built for a very much
smaller sum than that which they contcm plate
putting out. but they don't want them. Their
scheme IL Il great ono and they believe that
lavish expenditures will make 1t success. 1t
will be modelled after Morris Park or Sleeps
head Bay.
Boston is certainly ripe for nrsi,class run
ming track. Tho sport has reached IA wonder
~ height Of popularity in New York and tho
West. and there is not the slightest doubt that
1t would prove equally as attractiyoto the pco-
pie Of this city II 1t could be in tho hands of
the right parties. and properly presented for
patronage
