was built i'll 1889 by Joseph Dingle, of
st. Paul, after his own model, and was
the first yacht on White Bear to develop
anything like speed. To her is due in
a great measure the present friendly
strife among lake sailors to reach the
highest development of shallow-water
craft.
About the sweetest little beaton the
lake is the sloop Fortuna. owned and
sailed by DR.. James Welch. She is of
different model from the others, being
quite low in the water and of less beam.
She is an exact model ole-Quarter size

light and carries no ballast. which quail
tiles in conjunction with her compara-
lively enormous spread of canvas make
her unapproachable IN light winds. She
does not confne her good performances
to light weather, however, but is
splendid boat for rough water. During
last season Storm King won five first
pennants, three IN the first-class and
two in the second, and five second pen
nants in the association alone. The
owners Of new yachts expect to give her
a hard struggle for first place this year,
but her present owner, Mr.. Taylor, is
very confident that Storm King will be
able TO hold her own.

flannel suit. Well. Mary was ready and
we started. 1t never occurred to me to
offer her my arm, so we walked alone
toget her, doing considerable thinking
but very little talking. We attended the
circus. On the way home Mary took my
arm, as though it were her own prop
erty, and nothing has ever made me feel
so happy from that day to this.
"Well, the next day my elder brother
complimented ME on having escorted
the prettiest girl in town 10 the circus.
and L stepped very high when he said
that all the boys were envying me. But
he broke my heart when he concluded
by saying: You must have been in a
great hurry after you left the store last
night, for your neck was frightfully
dusty and dirty, as every one could
plainly see.' 1t was true. The barber
had neglected that part of his work,
and had forgotten it. | never called
on Mary Hoagland again. She is an

have dropped into the second rank
since the advent of the newer yachts,
but can well afford to rest upon her lau-
rels,, as she probably carries more prize
pennautS than any other boat on the
lake. Her skillful handling has not q
little to do with that,as both her masters
are old and experienced salt water sail.
ors. NuShka was built in 1890 by Diilgie
after his own model. and was the first OF
the ''skimming-dish" type placed on the
lake. and she has had a larger share OF
success than any of the others. she Is
% feet over all, same on water line, III
feet | inch beam, % feet draught, and
carries S25 square feet of canvas. Dur
ing q part of last season she was sailed
as a slOOp, but was very plainly over
rugged with 1912 square feet OF Jlb and
manSail. NuShka won the champion
ship cup of the Yacht club in 1890, but
was compelled to surrender in 1871.
Last season she nevertheless made an
enviable record, winning five first and
four second pennantS in the association,
besides several prizes in the club, III
which she is also enrolled.
MinnetOnka'S representative, the
slOOp Kitten, is undoubtedly one of the
handsOmest and fastest yachts on the
lake, but for some reason she failed to
come up to expectations last season,
winning but three first pennants in the
tirSt-claSS and one in the second. In the
other races she was greatly Outsailed.
Kittens dimensions are % feet, 0. A.,
20 feet inches w. L., feet inches BE-
feet inches d., and sail area COB square
feet. She was built by Capt. Brooks,
of Minneapolis. the builder of almost all
of MinnetOnka'S boats, and is laid OH
the lines of the old Pearl, Tom Thumbs
yacht, which sailed the waters of Long
Island sound for twenty years.
Space does not admit of mention of all
the leading yachts of White Bear lake,
but besides the priZe-winners already
spoken of there are numbers of others
of merit. Merry Monarch, owned by
Howard GaluSha, George Nettleton's
Martha and Walter MOrton's Katherine
have each captured places in one or
more races.
Both the association and the club
have their own course, in each case a
triangular course of five miles. gen

house advantages, entertains largely

HIS FIRST OFFENSE.
He Took a Girl to the Circus, but
the Barber Spoiled the Fun.


the Barber Spoiled the Fun.
"The first time ever escorted girl
TO any public place, either of worship
or amusement" said a prominent
treasury official to a Rochester Post
Democrat reporter, ''my modesty and
embarrassment were painful. There
was young lady pamed Mary Hoag-
land in our village, for whose beauty
every lad was willing to fight and die,
if necessary. Dan Rice's circus was
coming, and met Mary one afternoon
looking at the big bills which were
Haunted everywhere. l asked her if
she intended to go to the show. and she
replied that nobody had invited her. l
bashfully stated that l was sorry to hear
it, and walked away. After going about
two blocks it occurred to me that maybe
Mary might go with me, SO l returned
and asked her if she would.
"She turned her blue eyes upon me
and made me shiver with delight as she
said that 1t would be a great pleasure
for her to have my company. We'll, the
time came. and we had arranged to 20
to the evening performance. l was
working i'm a food store. At O'Clock
promptly closed the doors and rushed
to barber shop. The knight of the
blade strapped his razor on my smooth
face, and it took me but few minutes
to get home and put on my new blue
