The arrangements for the trials are
being made by the New York Yacht
Club, and as soon as they have been
perfected the various organizations will
Ia for the honors of holding tests un-
der their auspices. For instance, botn
the Larchmont and the S~eawanhaka
clubs have announced their determin-
alton to offer prizes. These, of course,
will add to the interest in the events,
but the great prize that wnl be'striven
for will be the honor to keep the great
trophy where it has rested for half a
century, on this side of the Atlantic.
On the Same Plan.
While the details of the competition
are yet TO be arranged it is intended
that, so far as possible. the races will
be on the same general plan as the in
ternational cup races, a twenty mile
beat to wIndward and return and equii-
ateral triangular races of thirty-nine
miles, one side to windward. The half
dozen yachts hat are to contest will
be manned exactly alike. They will
also be rugged exactly alike, and the
only way to distinguish n from the
other will be by a line or mark on the
hull, the nature of which will be agreed
pom later.
AS soon as the contest is finished,
which will be early in September, the
winning owner will place his order
with the Herreshoffs for the building
of the defender, for there is no doubt
but that one if not more than n chal-
lenge will have been received from the
other side by that time. Before that
nothing can be done as the dimensions
will not be known. Of course, it is
supposed that they will not vary great
ly from those of the recent defenders.
Under the provision of the deed of gift,
however, any single-masted yacht of
not less than sixty-five feet and not
more than ninety feet on the load
water line may enter in competition
for the cup, but it has come to be und-
erstood that the competing yachts
shall be as close to the maximum
length as possible.
This rule has been observed in the
last three contests and it is scarcely
probable that there will be any great
changes in the immediate future.
Under such conditions as those that
have now been arranged the race will
be the first. ever sailed in American
waters Or elsewhere in which so many
millionaires have contested for the
honor of defending the trophy. To
carry u these plans each millionaire
will be called upon to spend a small
fortune. The building, equipping and

thrown and the risky young horses
would be galloping wildly all over the
country. This single hours walk,
however, steadies their naturally high
spirits SO that when they are taken
upon the downs for the actual work
they are fairly well behaved.
% HIS Daily Work.
The routine work of horse training
is much the same from day TO day; a
walk in the early morning, a little trot
70 quicken the circulation; then a ~Aree
furlong or half-mile canter, followed
by another canter.
The work of the morning concludes
with a short gallop, which, compare
lively slow at first, increases in speed
as the horses get mor fit. Occa-
sionally the trainer finds it possible, If
not positively advisable to vary the
monotony of the work with what the
colt probably supposes is a real race.
He is sent out to do half a mile or six
furlongs beside an old horse and he US
ually eters into the spirit OF the game
thoroughly
At the start his rider teaches him
how to get away we'll, how to start at
good speed without loss of time. The
necessity of this particular instruction
is apparent for many of the first races
in which he will be entered will be for
short distances only. and, in such
events, the start is half the battle.
In these races the young morse is al
lowed to win even if it is necessary to
hold the old horse back for that pur-
pose. 1t is surprising how much these
horses know. They quickly realize
that they have been entered in a COM
petition and that it is their business to
try to beat out their opponents. Young
horses learn this almost as soon as
they learn to run and they are so con-
stituted that they would quickly lose
heart if they were frequently made to
race against rivals who always beat
them. This, by the way, is one of the
most important points in horse train
ing, for if a horse is disheartened at
the beginning he very rarely RECEIVERS
his natural courage and spirit.
Whip and spun should be something
entirely unknown on the training
ground. 1t is the business of the train
er and the riders to teach the young
horse to do his best in obedience to
hand and heel alone. He should never
know what punishment means until
the time when he is old enough and
fit" enough to be entered for his first
struggle beneath the severe eye of the
judge.

shipyard as against all the shin builders
of the world.
According to the plan that has been
decided upon at least six seventy-footers
are TO be entered in this great competi-
tive test, which is to last all summer.
1t is required that they shall be as nearly
alike in hull and sail plan as it is pos
sible to get them, and the seamanship
that is displayed in their sailing is to be

70 DEFEND THE YACHT CUP.
AMERICAN YATCHMEN TO BE CALL
ED UPON TO PRODUCE ANOTH-
Err CUP DEFENDER IN
1901.

1t is now believed to be a reasonable
certainly that there will be another inter-
national cup race in 1901. 1t is known
that Sir Thomas Upton is already max
Ing plans to cross the pond" again next
year and it is believed that a German
yacht, under the patronage of the Kaiser,
will also enter the competition. AS a
result there is every prospect that the
next series of cup races viii be more
exciting than any that have been held
at any period of international yacht
racing. beginning with the defeat of the
Aurora in 1851 and ending with the
glorious victory of the Columbia over
the Shamrock in 1899.
AS it is already known that the for
eign yachtsmen are even now making
their plans to lift" the cup, the Ameri-
can yachtsmen, not to be outdone, are
also preparing for the contest. Hereto
fore 1t has been the custom to leave all
preparations for the races until the last
possible moment when everything has
been finished with a rush. A yacht has
been built and put into racing trim in an
intellectually short space of time, but next
year everything will be different and the
yachts that cross with the idea of win
ming the priced trophy will have their
hands full as they will be called upon to
meet conditions that have never before
existed in this country.
For instance, the manner in which the
cup defender is to be selected will be an
entirely novel one. Heretofore one or
two men have had all the honor. This
year the matter is TO be left to honest
competition. In other words instead of
two yachts competing for the high priv
ilebe of defending the cup against a for
eign challenger there will be six at least,
and the tests that are to be commenced
shortly will continue from now until the
present yachting season comes TO a close.
OF course. this does not mean that the
winning yacht IN these contests is to en-
ter the lists as the American defender.
II simply implies that the owner or own
ers of this successful craft arr [, have

HOW 70 TRAIN RB1E HORSES.
FAMOUS LEXINGTON THURMAN
GIVES VALUABLE POINTS RE-
iGARDING THE EDUCATION
OF THE THOROUGH
BRED.
BY John NJ. shannon.

The education of the thoroughbred
horse should begin while he is still a
yearling for if it is intended that he
shall be trained to run in the races for
~two-year-olds the Don er he is broken
to the saddle and britlle the better it
will be for him in his future work.
The thoroughbred horse is a tender
piece of mechanism, but if he is han
died properly in the beginning good re-
suits ought to be obte ined with COM
parative ease. If taken in hand as a
colt he is apt to be nc re tractable and
the elementaries of his education are
fraught with less pain to himself and
far less trouble to his breaker than if
the business had BEEN postponed until
later in life. Too much stress, there
fore, cannot be laid upon this subject.
There are many advantages to be de-
rived by following this rule, whereas
there seems to be NO logical reason
why it should be adh cred to.
The first step in ,ne training of the
race horse is to teach him to carry a
boy on his back. He is then laugh to
obey the rein and when these points
have been .digested his actual training
begins.
Someone has summa rized the prepar-
atoms for racing as 'gallop. gallop,
gallop;" but in the case of the very
young horse that phrase is somewhat
misleading. The practice of sweating
was quite general in olden times, but
it has been out of use for nearly a
quarter of a century. In the old days
the colt. in addition TO his regular
work was twice a week smothered in
rugs and hoods, and, thus muff1ed, sent
on a four t o six miles gallop. While it
cannot be denied hat such treatment
was successful in getting 'the beef off"
it is never resOrted to now except in
the case where it is necessary to reduce
a gross horse whose legs will not stand
much galloping.
Need Dsfercnt Care.
The question of the amount of ex-
ercise required to put a horse in shape
is one that must be decided by the
trainer only. No rule can be appned
in this matter as the treatment may
vary greatly in EACH Individual case.
