SEATTLE LAUNCH A FLYER.
Walks Away From the Dirixo
in san Francisco Bay.

The gasoline launch Lucero. built in Sc
attle by Robert T. Englebrecht for Charles
Fair. the San Francisco millionaire. has
developed unusual speed. She San Fran
cisco Chronicle of March says of her:
There was a race on the bay yesterday
between the two best gasoline launches
that ever cut its waters. AS a result the
.colors of the launch that for three years
has flown the championship pennant were
lowered. and a craft that has heretofore
been an unknown quantity stepped into
the championship niche.
The competing launches were Charles
l.. Fairs Lucero and c. A. Warrens Diri-
go. The course stretched from Fo-t point
TO the foot of Folsom street. about eight
miles. Fairs launch ran at a speed of
fourteen miles an hour. The Dirigo's rec
ord is twelve.
The race was an impromptu one War
rem and Fair happened TO meet al Fort
point and the challenge followed. This
was only the second time Fair had really
tried his craft and the speed of the Lucero
was not known.
The rival launches got away at 30
o'clock Attorney George A. knight. who
is wing with Gov. Budd to establish "A
reputation as gasoline launch expert.
acted as engineer aboard the Lucero. The
splendid run shows that the governor win
have 70 keep wide awake or he viii lose
his iaurels George Waltenhaugh han
died the Dirigo.
The race aroused a great deal OF inter
est among yachtsmen and other owners
Of craft on the bay. and <ae DiriEo and
Lucero were cheered loudly as they spec
on their way to Folsom street.
