yacht Chispa is justly entitled to the
| distinction of being the most pro-
~ nounced 'hoodoo'' craft that ever
cleaved the placid waters Of the bay. The
latest incident that has attracted atten-
ton to the Chispa, and incidentally the
attention of the police to Dave Mcintyre,
who until last Saturday had charge of the
yacht, happened at Benicia, much to the
regret of the liquor dealers, grocery men
and livery stable proprietors of the lit
tie town.
Commodore Cutie has been extremely
unfortunate in his selection of men to
handle his yacht. When he hired McEn-
tyre two month ago he thought he had
discovered model boatman. But the
commodore was doomed to disappoint-
rnent, for Mcintyre developed into the
slickest confidence operator who ever at
tempted to sell a gold brick.
During the early part of last week Nc
Entyre suggested to the commodore that
it would be good idea to send the Chispa
to Turner's shipyard, off Benicia, to be
thoroughly overhauled. The yacht need
ed a little trimming, so Mr.. Cutie placed
Mcintyre in charge Of the yacht and sent
her up to the burg.

The revenue cutter Rush was much
more badly damaged from her collision
with the British ship Crown of India than
was at first supposed. She lost her bow
spirit and the stem was so badly shattered
that the cutter will have to go on the dry
dock to have a new one put In. The Crown

smashed in and the standing rigging con

Corkhill of the Crown of India yesterday.
