NOT EMO UGH WIND.

No wind, no race yesterday. But when what race there was ended the Shamrock was about half mile ahead of the Columbia. This condition of things is oheerfully ascribed to the good luck which the Shamrock had and not to her superiority. It is well enough to look at it this way until there is proof that it is not the right way
 Tomorrow another attempt will be made Perhaps it would be wicked to pray for wind to blow along yachts on whose merits bets have been made, but wind is earnestly desired. It will be pity if there isn't wind enough to sat isfy the rooters for each yacht and it will be thousand pities if there isn't wind enough to finish the contest with. Probably there will be wind enough In the course or time to make the race success, but what is wanted Is howl ing success. The fact that millions of dollars can't buy wind is impressive, but 1t must also be somewhat exasper- ating to those who are accustomed to buy what they want.
