THE YACHTSMAN.
The Califo rnias and the Corin-
thlans VIII Hold ReRattas To-
Morrow and Monday.

The Callfo rnias and the Corin-
thlans VIII Hold Regattas To-
Morrow and Monday.
On Monday next the Corinthian Yacht
Club will hold its twelfth annual regatta.
The owners of the different boats have
gone to great trouble and expense to put
their yachts in winning trim, and as the
interest Is unabated the races on Decora-
tion day should be the best that have ever
been seen on our bay.
On the first beat to the Presidio Sh oal
buoy it will be food-tide race, but as it
is high tide at 10 p NJ. at Fort Point the
chances are that strong ebb will be run
ming when the boats beat out for the sec
ond time.
In the first class the principal struggle
should be between the Ella and the Speed
well, as the Clara has not been sailing in
her true form, owing to the number of
alterations she has undergone
The Speedweil points higher and will
probably gain great deal on the beat to
wind ward, but the Ella should make up
the time In the run and the reach.
Ed Donohoe has lightened the Speed
well by removing about twelve hundred
pounds OF ballast, so as to give the boat
greater buoyancy and speed.
Ihe Pride's topmast and rigging have
been removed, and Eidie Lathrop thinks
his alteration will be great improve
ment. The Pride has never been properly
tried out, but Lathrop will surely get out
all the speed that is in her.
Judging from the performance Of the
boats up to date the Speed dweIl should wip.
In the second class the race will be be-
tween the Harpoon and Queen. The Har-
poon has this season shown herself to be
much improved boat and should easily
win out.
In the 3O-foot class ex- Commodore Pew
has decided not to race his Truant, but he
will sail the Eolus.
The latter boat has been fitted with a
new weighted centerboard, which it is
hoped will greatly steady her in blow
and improve her sailing qualities.
Numerous changes have also been made
ON the Amigo, which have greatly i'm
proved her. as was seen by the fine show
ing she made in the opening cruise. She
will be sailed by Frank Stone.
The Mlgnon is an excellent heavy
weather boat, and in heavy blow Will
surely give good account of herself.
The Eolus should win in her class.
In the 25-foot class the Phnnicia stands
the best chance OF winning.
In the 2O-foot class the boats are mostly

at P. NJ. and midnight. Senator George

sextuplet machine at Vallejo a sight
which alone is worth the trip.
The racers are in splendid condition for
both these meets, having had ali the
training they require. and some splendid
racing should be seen. The meeting of
Jones and Ziegler at both places will be
watched with interest as Ziegler claims
he is going to wipe out the orus of his de-

circles here by reason of his clever writ

of June in Southern California on his an

time to recreation OF course will find
many opportunities TO exto the ben efts
of the California Associated Cycling Clubs
to the wheelmen of that portion of the
State. Mr.. Clark's missionary work in
this direction will be productive of much
good in increasing the individual men,
bership of the association in the south.
The Eastern officials of the League of
American Wheelmen are not going to let
of attention if they can help it.
Captain Strong, :he new chief consul,
who bv the way has been league mem per
for eighteen years. SAYS that as soon as he
can get the run of affairs he will give his
attention to recruiting the mem bership
and making up the lost ground. He feels
confident that the league will continue
with good membership in this State. He
is not going 10 adopt a policy of fighting
the c. A. c. c., and says that many Of its
most prominent mem bers are his personal
friends. Of course there will be no race
meets, as the c. a. c. G. controls that field
now. But in the way OF roaGbooks. tour
ing, hotel rates, legislative matters and
the like there is much good hat the league
can do, and he proposes to direct its ener-
gies in that direction.

THE WHEEL MEN.
Jones and Ziegler VIII Meet Again
at the Vallejo and San Joss
Races.


Races.
There are two big race meets to enter
tain the wheelmen tomorrow and Mon
day and the prospects are that both will
be well attended by local enthusiasts
although they are held some distance
away. Tomorrow San Jose will make
the first attempt at hclding a Sunday
meet there under the auspices of the Gar
den City Cyclers. and Monday the Ariel
Bicycle Club of Vallejo will open its new
track.
For both meets there is a good pro-
gramme, long entry list and valuable
prizes, the second-nsmed feature being in
sured by the first and last. The usual ex-
cursion rate of 81 % for the round trip TO
San Jose on Sunday will induce many to
go down in the morning. though several
parties are being made up to ride down
a-wheel this afternoon on the Oakland
side.
The Vallejo excurs ion will be made by
