YLvA'S OPEN GYMNASTIC TESTS,

The New York Bay Yacht Club, which
was organized in the Greenville section a
few weeks ago, promises to become one OF
the largest and most active yachting organl-
cations in this county. The club already
numbers among its feet the fastest racing
boats in the city, and the membership IS IN
creasing so rapidly that permanent quarters
are necessary. At the meeting held on
Wednesday evening at the residence OF Mr..
C. P. Vreeland several new members were
elected. The following officers were chosen:
Commodore, G. A. Bouker Vice
Commodore, Henry Harms /; Re
cording Secretary, DIR. Malaw
Financial Secretary. D. A. Woodruff; Trea-
surer, o. P. Vreeland; Secretary, R. E.
Relyea: Trustees. j. H. Grady, Mr.. Ancher.
Harry McGeighan, Jon M. Sawyer, Jr., and
Samuel Bonker. It was decided to hold the
opening regatta on Decoration Day, when
the Commodore's cup and a cup offered by
the club will be sailed for. The club also de-
cided to hold races during June, July,
August and September.
The committee which was appointed at the
last meeting to secure permanent quarters
has decided to rent the lower floor of the
house on the New York Bay Shore at the
foot of Gator e The rooms will be
furnished in a manner to make them meet
every want of the members. A float and
bridge will be built as soon as the weather
will permit. When the new quarters are
rented and furnished an opening reception
will be held and a committee will be APP
pointed to arrange for a ladies' reception
once a month.
1t is the intention of the organizers of the
club to limit the active membership to
yachtsmen who only own fast boats. The
main object of the club is to promote yacht
racing, and this sport will be encouraged as
far as possible. Application will shortly. be
made for membership in the Yacht Racing
Association

REPUTATION COUNTS.

Henrietta Brown and John Schaeffer, who
found $500 in Rich's Hotel which belonged
to a cook employed there and who refused to
return the money, were sentenced in the
Court of Sessions yesterday for larceny.
Before sentence was passed each denied hav-
ing the money, but said it was in the posses
sion of the other. The woman was sent to
State Prison for two years, and the man got
off with one year at the same place. Hen
rietta's bad character caused the court to
deal more severely with her than with
Schaeffer.
