On the tall flagstaff ON the roof OF the club house
a string Of parti-colored flags spelt out the word
Welcome" in the letters OF the international
signal code. while over the entrance floated the
Commodore's blue flag draped with smilax.
Long bands or ropes Of the same plant were
wound about the banisters and stairs and over
the d~oorways.
The model room. with its miniature duplicates
of cup defenders past and present, was the CEN
tire OF attraction, and in a prominent place a fine
collection of yachting trophies. including the
historic Americas Cup, was surrounded by an
eager crowd of women all the afternoon. In ad-
dition to the Americas Cup there was the Prince
OF Wales Gold Cup won by George J. Gould's
Vigilant in 1894. and the cup recently presented

BRISTOL, r. l.. May 1.-The Herreshofs have
received orders for two more 30-footers. and
work has been commenced on them. They will
be built from the same mould as the others of
the class. The last two of the original order are
practically ready for launching. AS the weather
is now all that could be desired and boats are
being hauled out Of their winter quarters. the
rigging Of the fleet OF 30-footers is looked for
any day. 1t is quite likely that the boats
will be selected by their several owners before
being rugged, as the man who holds the tiller
during the trial spins can undoubtedly pick the
feetest Of the lot. Under the circumstances.
therefore, 1t would seem that the best way to
draw for the boats would be before they are
tried.
Hathaway's men have been busy all season on
the sails of the 30-footers, and 1t is believed that
there will be no delay in rigging out the boats.
The work of the ship carpenters In the shops is
pretty well completed.
A steam yacht Tor Mr.. Van Duzer of New
York was launched n few days ago. The yacht
Is 100 feet over all. 81 feet water lite, IL feet

taken to an Duzer's summer residence at the
Thousand Islands. She is named Varuna. and
having good lines, besides being comfortable
looking both above and below decks. She will
have two masts. is rugged with q short %bowsprit,
and will have foresail. mainsail. and lib. which
chinery. She is painted white above the water
line and green below. She will have speed of
twelve or thirteen knots an hour.
Saunders is very busy. and has been compelled
to make an addition TO his shop. The Narragan-
sett Bay fleet promises to be an unusually large
one. Among the notable additions is the tleet
sloop Gossoon. The Wasp is not going into
