way Is thorough yachtsman, which
was in evidence owing to the skillful
maneuvers made in handling the yacht
and thereby escaping what might have
been a serious collision with the Pride
OF the Harbor which was in command
of Captain Conkling marine reporter Of
the Republican. Although Captain
Conkling was commanding the much
speedier boat he was endeavoring to
pass to the windward Of the Dewey
and making a complete circle around
the above boat came up from astern
and passing to leeward and then ahead
and finally squaring off and passing
around her stern once more and then
to leeward. While in that position

the rudder filled so as to come in con-
tact with the main lift of his opponent.
Although in rather an embarrassing
position the two yachtsmen are still

SKILLED WORKMEN
ARE STILL SCARCE

Not for a number Of years has skilled
workmen and even laborers been as
scarce in this city as during the past few
months. All the local manufacturers
have been unusually busy for some time
but have been handicapped by lack Of
workmen. This is especially true at the
Pullman Palace Car Company's new
shops, where on several occasions during
the fall extra wages were offered to Sc
cure enough laborers. Many other build
ing operations have been delayed for the
same reason.
In all lines of the building trades there
is a scarcity of workmen. 1t would seem
| from present indications that there is not
enough skilled workmen of that class in
Wilmington. On several occasions those
engaged in building operations have had
to 90 ont Of the city to secure their help.
