there When he came out Of me hospital he was
transferred 10 the reserve corps where he remained
until the end Of the war.

Royal Flush was running well, and
seemed likely to make this his fourth
stake in succession. In the third round,
however, he met Pretender, and lost any
chances he may have had. The two game
dogs coursed the hare all over the field,
the succeeding round by Wait-a-Little.
The coursing was good throughout the
day, but some of the best OF the sport was
marred by a dense fog which rolled in

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-Excursionists
came down the bay in hundreds, all
eager to get a glimpse of the Shamrock
and her owner In the latter they were
disappointed. for Sir Thomas kept close
10 the Erin during the day, and al
though many excursion craft ran close
very few were lucky enough to catch
glimpse of Upton, but they cheered the
Erin and her owner. the Shamrock and
her flag. All admired the handsome
yacht and there were some with a crit
ical eye who professed belief that when
official measurements We're made it
might be found the Columbia would
have to allow the challenger time.
Sir Thomas is less frank about his
yacht than he was during the early
hours Of his first appearance here. He
was none too discussive even then,
especially when speaking of her sail
area, load water lines and other mat
ters in which many persons here are
keenly interested. But now he avoids
the subject and deXterously parties all
questions.
The Shamrock will tomorrow at s
o'clock proceed seaWard fer a trial spin
outside Sir Thomas means to go on
the Shamrock and TO accompany her on
all of the other trials that may follow.
The yacht Erin will accompany the
Shamrock and after the trial will escort
her TO an anchorage inside the
Horseshoe" where both yachts will
anchor for the night. This programme
may be repeated many times. The
committee Of the New York Yacht
club. having in charge the challenge Of
the Roy Ulster Yacht Club witnessed
yesterdays race between the Columbia
and the Defender and was greatly
pleased with the showing Of the new
yacht. More than one of them has told
me that the result was significant, both
in matter Of windward qualities of the
new boat and of her stiffness in the
fresh breeze that was blowing for the
last seven or eight miles of the wind
ward leg. All agree it was the best
windward test the Columbia had with
the Defender and this conclusion is
shared by Mr.. Iselin and his associates.
