BUILDERS OF
SHAMROCK RIDE

New York, Sept with her
owner, designer. builder, manager and
sailmaker aboard, the Shamrock II
sailed the seventh trial race yester-
day There was a light breeze from
the east and northeast Of sufficient
strength to give a very satisfactory
estimate of speed in light weather.
Although at times there was not more
than a three-knot air, at no time did
the yacht act sluggishly She slipped
through the water at an amazingly
good rate of speed under the influence
of her great mainsail and light sails.
The water was smooth, but even.
When pressed to a speed of nine
knots the yacht made very small
wave at the bow, and left an abso-
lutely clean wake.
Trimming the sheets down fiat after
passing the hook the Shamrock step
ped off at an S-knot clip at once, work
ing her way out to sea with a fair
tide under her lee. 1t took her only
nine minutes to sail the full length
of Gedney's channel rs miles. OF
Sea Bright she was put about and
series of sail drills began. Changes
were made with extraordinary rapid
ity and without error The yacht re-
sponded promptly and maintained the
high record made on previous trials.
At $50 she returned to her
mooring in Sandy Hook bay.

Some Propositions That 1t Is Safe to

There are many things which at first

strong enough to break a new laid egg
if the hands are clasped and the egg
laid endWise between the palms. 1t is
said that the pressure required to break
an egg in this manner amounts to tons
Among other safe bets is a wager
that a man cannot rise from a chair
without bending forward or putting his
feet under the chair or outside of it.
Many a man will back himself to give
another a start of 30 yards in a dash
Of 100 provided the man having the
start hops all the way. But no runner
however swift can give that amount Of
start to an ordinary man. For the first

same pace. NIDeTefore the runner, to go
50 yards whit& the chopper" goes 40,
would have to T6u more than twice as
fast. and it would lba-ayeak man who
could not hop Is yards at a pace equal
to 20 seconds for 100 yards and that
would mean that the runner in order to

records.
