YACHTING ON THE GREATLAtkES.
The fresh water yachtsmen of the
great lakes have their international
trophies, too, and the struggle for
their possession promises TO be no less
keenly and zealously waged in the fu-

tests for the famed America cup.There
is no good reason, indeed, why the
sport of yachting should not ind a
congenial habitat on our Northern
border. IN the irregular lake regat-
tas which have brought the various
types of lake-built boats into compe-
tition, there has been disclosed not
only a disposition to magnify the in
