Facts About Some Large
Sailing Vessels.
Difference Between a Knot
and a Statute Mile.
a Dog that Died Of Grief Costliest
Work Ever Published.

Very few persons, except those Inter
ested In marine matters are aware that
the largest sailing vessel engaged in trade
on the American coast halls from this
port. This vessel is the fve-ma sted
schooner Governor Ames, which IL en-
gagged in the coal carrying trade between
Newport News and this port. The
big schooner was built at Waldboro, Me. :,
In 1858, by Levitt Storer nine v ears ago,
and her master and owner is Captain g.
A. Davis. She has length OF 345 feet
inches, and beam p feet inches, and
net tonnage OF l,6S9.A. The Ames is q
splendid vessel, put so familiar has she
become through her frequent visits to
this port on each OF which she bri ngs
1900 tons OF coal that she now attracts
very little attention. save from visitors
who hsppen to get glimpse of her dur
ing the summer season. while on their
way up or down the bay on one of the
steamers.
Speaking of big vessels it 10 interesting
to learn that the largest sailing craft In
the world is the ship Potosi, which is
now engaged in the nitrate trade with the
Nest Coast of South America. She was
built by Laeisz at Ham burg in 1895 and is
1852 feet long, a9 "a feet beam and
has carrying capacity of 6,l50 tons.
In addition to being the largest ship in
existence she has the distinction of
being the only five-masted one with
the exception of the La France OF Dun
kirk, which is of eonsidera bly, smaller
dimensions. During the Potosi's fret
voyage to Iquique she covered IL, 900 miles
in ~ days, which is considered q remark
ably fast trip.

YALE PLAYS NEWTON A. C.
THE 'YARSiTY TO MEET 4 TEAM OF
 CANDIDATES.

Short Practice at the Field Yesterday
 Afternoon-Tho Line-Up for the First
 Haif-Far Regatta on Lake Whitney
 This Afternoon.
 This afternoon at Newton, Mass, the Varsity eleven will meet the crack team from the Newton Athletic club. The majority of the players are we'll known college graduates and will un- doubtely play strong, fast game.
 Bass left end on Yales big team last year, will be the only Yale man on the Newton team tomorrow. In conse- quence of this game practice at the Yale field yesterday was light. A ten minute game was played by the 'Var-- sity and the scrub teams. At the con 1 clusion of this practice the 1901 team and the scrubs played rather an unln- | teresting game, it being an easy mat ter for the scrubs to push the freshmen all over the field.
 The Varsity left last night for Bos- ] ton..
 1 The lineup of the team for the first half will be: Hazen, left end; Rodgers, i left tackle; Cadwalader left guard; Marshall, center; Brown. right guard; Allen right tackle; Chamberlain or Connor, right end; DeSaulles, quarter; Benjamin and Kiefer, halves, and, Me- ! Bride, full back.
 l Captain Rodgers will no doubt be un- able to play the entire first half, and in event of this McGill will take his place. Marvin and Kline may replace BenJa- min and Kiefer as halves in the second half.
 A large crowd of Harvard men are expected to attend the game, It will be the first time Yale team has play ed in Boston or vicinity for several years, and the supporters of the crim- son will get a chance to judge Of Har- yards chances in the coming, game with Yale october 13.
 1 Prospects for q winning baseball 1 team next spring are at present quite promising. Of the Varsity team oi last spring Keator, I.etton, Reed and Fincke graduated and their places vii 1 in consequence have to be filled witf new men. Among the new men out practicing this fall who played 1T championship games are Greenwas '9SS., Hagen '9S, Camp 1900, Goodwin 1900, Feary '9s, Wallace '99, Hecker '99 Farnham '9s M. S., Hamlin '9S M. S.. and Sullivan 1900.
 The incoming freshman class during their two weeks of practice had some very good men out, but it is not policy to count upon their ability to play fast enough ball to keep up in the race fol positions on the Varsity nine
 The Yale crews took their final prac- tice for the annual fall regatta at Lake 4 Whitney. It will be held at pm. to-day The crews have been coached by the veteran trainer, Bob Cook, and are ir better rowing condition to give a fine exhibition or oarsmanship than any Yale class crews have been for three years. The heats have not yet beer decided but the two freshman crews will race against each other, and the Juniors will meet the sophomores. The Varsity will not appear.
 A squad of about twenty men from
 the Yale law school will begin practice tomorrow afternon at the field in prep aration for baseball team from that department of the university.
