wRIGHT's NEW YACHT.
The Commodore Has "a Surprise for
the Wawasee Yacht Club.
.cial to the Indianapolis journal.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
COLUMBUS, Ind, May 1.-THE coming
meet of the Yacht Gu at Wawasee lake
will in all probability be one of the very
best ever held in Indiana on any of her
beautiful lakes. A feature worthy of men,
ton will be the appearance of the new
yacht of Commodore j. T. Wright, of this
city, which has been named Wawasee. Mr..
Wright will be remembered as a prominent
character during the last five years In the
regattas on the waters of Wawasee. Com
modere Wright's new boat has just received
the finishing touches, and is the admiration
Of all who have seen its outlines. 1t will
be shipped in a few days to the Indiana
Club house at the lake. The dimensions of
the boat are as follows: Length, twenty
feet over all; water line, sixteen feet; beam,
six feet seven and one-half inches; draft,
eleven inches; free board, thirteen and one
half inches: lead ballast. inside, 400 pounds;
ballast in center board, of shot, 200 pounds;
mast TO hounds. sixteen feet; mast to truck,
nineteen and one-half feet, thus giving a
sailing area of i25 square feet, with main
sail and two head sails.
The boat has two water-tight bulk heads
fore and aft, with a displacement of 1.40O
pounds, which, in the event of a capsize,
would render ii nonsinkable. A peculiar
feature of this boat, and one worthy of
mention, is it's DETECTING center board for
ward of the mast, the object of which is
to make the boat hold TO the windward,
DETECTING from starboard to port at any
point of the compass. Another feature of
the boat is an entirely new traveller, which
is made of braided cotton cord. which is
smoother than metal, and when in use is
practically noiseless.
The skin of this boat is Of white oak. in
narrow strips. a half-inch thick. and run
ming the entire length of the boat without
splicing. The deck is white pine, and the
cock pit is STAYED with the same. AT the
coming regatta this boat will be in COM
mand of Commodore Wright, and his
friends believe she will make matters in
teresting for the other fellows.

INDIVIDUAL CUPS USED.
innovation I'm the. Communion Ser
vice Of n Baptist Church.
and Chronicle.

Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
For the first time in the history Of Roch-
ester churches the individual communion
cup was used yesterday.
The novel service took place in North
avenue Baptist Church, of which Rev. G.. +.
Love is pastor. 1t was the usual commun-
ion service, but, owing to the novelty OF
the process of administration, there was an
extraordinary attendance. DR.. Forbes, who
designed the sanitary communion cups and
trays, was at the service 20 see that every
thing was done in order, and TO microScop-
ically examine the dregs after communion.
DIR. Forbes stated to a Democrat and
Chronicle reporter that the service ran
smoothly, and was conducted with dispatch.
There was no irreverence, and no idle curl
osity noticeable while the sacred service
was in progress.
The pastor, Mr.. Love. p~refaced the exer-
cises by a few appropriate remarks He
spoke OF the change OF administering the
wine In individual cups as one calculated
to reduce the chances OF conveying disease
from person to person. He thought that no
less dignity and solemnity would be OBJ
served by individual cups than when the
single chalice was passed from mouth to
mouth.
After this explanation the communion
service was then proceeded with according
10 the prescribed rules OF the Baptist
Church.
The people sat in their seats. and then
the elders were called TO the front. and
were given small silver trays, each one
holding twelve miniature chalices. The ell
ders handed to each COMMUNICATE one OF
the little cups, and after the contents had
been tasted the cups were placed In racks
specially made for holding them. There
were go communicates and all were served
In the short space OF half an hour.
DIR. Forbes. whose microscopic researches
into the sanitary problem involved In the
individual cups have attracted attention,
was allowed TO gather up Unfortunately
at least a dozen cups fer the purpose OF
obtaining the dregs and placing them under
microscopic examination.
The Doctor. after thoroughly investigating
the contents, favored a Democrat and
Chronfcla repnrtar With his cnnrluGfouG He
said:
From a sanitary standpoint i am now

fact. but II Is nevertheless true. that the
