Dewey Celebration Diverts
Attention From the
Fast Clippers.

New York, Sept 3O.-Because of the
welcome TO Admiral Dewey. the two
yachts that will do battle during the
week were visited by comparatively few
sightseers today. The crew of the Co.
lumbia completed the cleaning of the
underbody and spent the greater part
of the day painting her topsides. This
work was performed with the greatest
care. After the color was applied, it
was rubbed smooth with water, and
then with pumice stone Afterward the
men went over the entire hull with cot
ton waste and removed any particles
of pumice stone that adhered to the
metal or paint.
Ringers in the meanwhile were at
work fitting a brass cap on the top
mast in order to facilitate raising and
lowering the spar. A rumor was in cir
culatian during the evening that the
Colur1 bia will be measured in Erie pas
in alongside the Shamrock on Monday,
instead Of in the navy yard dry dock,
as previously reported. Owing to the
instructions relative to the passes, few
persons visited the yacht in her dock.
but OF the Erie basin, where a view of
the Shamrock could be obtained With
out formality of yards of red tape,
many visitors gaZed at the Irish ooat
and commented on her appearance.
The crew there was also finishing no
the polishing process, to which the
yachts underbody had been subjected
1t shone like gold in the sunshine, and
formed pleasing contrast to her green
topsides. The work of overhauling the
yacht is about completed, the last thing
being to put an extra strut on the mast
in order partly to relieve the strain OF
the heavy sail.
This strut was holted in place during
the afternoon, about Is feet below the
spreaders and stay was then passed
over It. leading from the masthead TO
the Geek, where it sets up with a turn
buckle. Captain Hogarth said that the
usual Scotch Sabbath would be OBJ
served on the Shamrock, and that the
boat would be floated out of the dock
early Monday morning preparatory to
being measured by -Ir. Hyslop.

Halifax, N. S., Sept 30.-Mark Lynch,
the Halifax champion sculler, defeated
James A. Ten Eyck of Worcester and
James Norris of Halifax in three
mile race in single SOULS today for a
purse of $500. Betting was slightly in
Ten Eyck's favor on account of his vic
tory over Norris a week ago.
Lynch had the advantage of the start
and was never headed. Rowing "a
strokes to the minute, he forged stead
lily to the front, and at the turning
boat, which was reached in 1926, was
leading the American by four lengths,
who was a length ahead of Norris.
The race between Ten Eyck and Nor
ris for second place was great strug-
gle, particularly at the finish, when
their boats were almost tapping. Lynch
had crossed the line two lengths ahead
of Ten Eyck in the fast time Of 81
The race was three miles with a turn.
