We hope that the Crowninshleld mode
for the Lawson-Boston Cup defender will
be a wide departure in lines from the oft
copied productions of IiERREsHoPP. Nobody
can dispute for a moment the fact that HERE
sHorPs triumphs have been phenomenal
but there are many yachtsmen who fancy
that even he has not yet reached the limit
OF a yachts powers up and down tho wind.
They argue that he has simply outcuttered
the cutters in depth Of keel. and they dominate
tho light hull burdened some twenty odd feet
below with a huge bulb keel Of lead.
In old times when clipper ships used to
race. some shippers got splendid results from
raising their cargoes. In other words. when
they found their vessels sluggish in a sea,
they employed some OF their men to bring
up the heaviest portions of the cargo. The
effect was with most vessels 10 give life 10
their movements. and beat the other ships
whose captains cautiously kept the weight
down below But there Ia no room for eau
ton In n yacht race. That must always be,
like a football game. a break-neck. sink-or-
swim rlcket from start TO finish. Otherwise
they don't get there.

what Was Done at Annapolis.

The announcements are gratifying hat
a Congressional investigation INTO the
death OF ex-Cadet BooZ Ia probable and
that the Superintendent Of the West Point
Academy is himself ,onducting a rigid In
quiry into the affair. We are bound to
give Col. MILLS. who came to his post
In 1893, due credit for stopping In very
great degree the hazing and fighting there
which in the years Immediately preceding
his official term seemed to run riot; but IL
Is as wrong for any one assuming to
be a friend Of the Military Academy
To maintain that something Of this sort
Is needed to make young men " good
soldiers as II Ia Idle to say that II
cannot be suppressed In so large a body Of
young men. A regiment OF toushs "
recruited during the Civil Wa made the
worst and weakest-hearted soldiers In the
army.
We have never understood that bravery
and ability to serve ono's country nobly
and faithfully was any less priced at An
napolis than at West Point, and the num-
bers at one place are as large As al the other.
But there Is no hazing at Annapolis. that Is
to say, none Of the brutal hazing which has
brought scandal upon West Point.
For some reason which we leave to stu
dents Of human nature to determine, the
officers OF the navy have never seemed
TO put value on these practices as part
Of their professional education as have the
officers Of the army, and hazing at An
napolis for over thirty years. at least. has
been punished with invariable and ex-
IRENE severity. BY reason OF the recon-
mendation made TO Congress by Commo-
dore WoRDEN. when superintendent Of the
Naval Academy. every form Of hazing at
that place was made a court-martial offence
punishable by dismissal. The last out
break OF hazing at Annapolis was on the
cruise Of the Constellation. the naval prac-
tice ship. when Capt. SAMPSON. now Rear
Admiral. was Superintendent Of the Naval
Academy. Capt, SAMPSON ordered the
cruise stopped and convened a court-mar-
tial, which dismissed nine men. There has
been no hazing at Annapolis since.

Point there would be no Whitaker case,
or Albert case. or Booz case there every
few years.
