SPEED OF THE SHAMROCK
HER TRIAL SPIN YESTERDAY NOT
 A SUCCESS.
In n Light Wind She Does Not Develop the Speed Credited to Her in Previous Trials-Her Sails Fit SuperbIy-Her Trim Altered by Addition of Moro Ballast.

New York, Sept. 7.-In breeze rang ing from five to eight knots an hour the | Shamrock took her third trial spin to- day off Sandy Hook. When the yacht
 left her moorings in the Horseshoe at 10 o'clock the wind was light from the northeast. After noon it freshened and shlfted to the southeast. During the
 trial, which lasted about six hours, sev-
 eral new features were noticeable, The yachts trim had been altered by the ad- dlt1on of more ballast aft, raising her bow out of the water, and she set her clubtopsail for the first time in these
 waters. It is very large piece of can vas, fitting splendidly and apparently doing excellent work in light airs.
 As soon as her mainsail was bent it was hoisted and the Shamrock slipped her moorings and was lowed out past the point of Sandy Hook conveyed by the steam yacht Erin. For some thirty minutes after the tug let go the yacht lay in the wind with mainsail and club topsail set. boat was lowered and Sir Thomas Lipton transferred from the Erin to the Shamrock. Then the Sham rock proceeded to try her new mainsail. about which there are all sorts of ru- mors, regarding it's size and weight. a3reaking out the jib and forestaysail the Shamrock was headed to the south- east for about thirty minutes, first with baby jibtopsail~set, and then with a larger one. The sheets were trimmed down and she was hauled close to the wind. This was at noon.
 The Shamrock stood off to sea for nearly an hour, easing sheets at times and shifting light sails, but at no time did she develop the great speed credited to her in former trials. In fact, she seemed not to be a success as light weather boat. During the trial Captain Hogarth had a superbly fitting balloon jib topsail set, also a new lug foresail that sheets aft at least fifteen feet. The yacht returned to her anchorage some time after o'clock in the afternoon. Designer Fife watched her from the bridge of the Erin.

A LIME DEPOSIT.
Santa Barbara Press: The Lewis
brothers, owners of a claim en- the sum-
nit near Painted cave, expect to fire
their first kiln of lime about May 18th.
The discovery of an inexhaustible ledge
of lime rock in the mountain back of
their cabin was made about two months
ago, and tests proved it to be the finest
quality Since then they have built a
road to the ledge, erected kiln to hold
about 100 barrels and on last Saturday
hauled the first load of the rock. They
expect to be able to supply the entire
local demand for lime. This will be OF
considerable benefit to the city, as here
tofore the greater part of the lime need
ed in Santa Barbara has been shipped
from a distance at an expense of about
81 per barrel for freight alone.
Another incidental benefit of the dis
covery will be the building of a new
wagon road to Painted Cave, as the
present one is too narrow and too steep
to be used in heavy hauling.
