makes her look clumsier, as.if she were
forced through the water, while the
slim Columbia pierces it like rapier.
Though indecisive in every respect
as to the abilities of the great rival
single stickers, Mondays race indicates
that the Irish boat, with her English
skipper and her Scotch crew, is the
ablest sloop ever sent across the At
lantic in the hope of lifting the one
hundred guinea cup, which the America
brought back 4s years ago, and which
has since been successfully defended
against the world
A Pretty Race.
During the 5A hours sail the Sham
rock was thrice ahead, and twice the
Yankee boat showed the way For the
first ten minutes the Shamrock led.
then for five the Columbia's graceful
bow showed ahead of the green boat;
for As minutes following the Shamrock,
then for three hours the Columbia, and
for the last hour and half it was the
Shamrock that led the way. The breeze
blew as high as 12 knots an hour and as
low as three, and shifted about through
eight points of the compass.
Each in turn beat the other running
before the wind and was in turn beaten,
beating against the wind at various
stages OF the race, SO that many of the
experts who saw the two boats sail are
disinclined to believe that there is pin
to choose between them, but when the
race is closely analysed, it is absolute
~ proven that the Columbia showed
her superiority at every point of sail
ing, running, reaching and beating
whenever the wind freshened, and that
it was only in the lightest air that the
Shamrock could make Roadway against
her.
Both had then. share of good and bad
luck. The Columbia had the better Of
the shifting wind on the run down to
the mark and beat the Shamrock two
minutes and IA seconds, while on the
beat home, after increasing her lead to
over mile at one time, the Shamrock
overhauled the Yankee and was quar-
| ter of a mile ahead when the time al
lowance expired.
The feature of the race which pleased
everybody most was the perfectly clear
| field which was maintained. For the
first time the government took hand
to prevent repetition of the unfor-
tunate occurrence which marred the
race when the accompanying excursion
boats in their frenzied eagerness to let
none of the beautiful spectacle escape
crowded down upon the racers, until
their backwash impeded their progress
through the water and caused Lord
Dunraven to file his protest. The gov
eminent was determined this year that
the course should be protected against
unofficial trespassers. A fotilla OF rev
enue cutters and swift torpedo boats
flying red-barred white flags, guarded
the course, keeping excursion steamers

A Cuckoo Caught in the Act.

everybody has read in the natural
history books how the ungrateful
cuckoo makes room in its foster
mothers nest by evicting the rightful
occupants, Matched and unmatched. AS,
however, few people have had the good
fortune to see young cuckoo. it has
been rather difficult to understand ex
actly how the migrate managed to turn
out eggs and squads. A patient nat
uralist, John Craig, has now solved the
mystery, and in THE Feathered
World" there are two photos. taken
under his auspices, Of young cuckoo

young cuckoo in the two pictures is
once grasped, one can see how well
suited for its fell purpose is the POSI-

legs wide apart gripping either side OF

vent any slipping back sideways, the
