COLUMBIA WON FIRST RACE
CONSTITUTION WAS DEFEATED.
Last Years Winner Won in Trial
Race-Forty-Tsvo Seconds Ahead
Went over Thirty Mile Wind
ward and Leeward Course.

Bateman's Point r. l., July 2.-When
the Constitution and Columbia hoisted sail
for the first ace of the season between
the Americas cup defender yachts the
breeze inside the bay was very light, and
the yachts had some difficulty in getting
out of the starting point. The contest
was a windward and leeward affair of 30
miles. By the time the yachts had reach
ed the hghtship they found a good breeze
from the southwest, and at 1890 there
seemed little chance for a postponement
Both yachts came out of the harbor with
large clubtop sails set. The Columbia was
the first out, but she was only few min
utes ahead of the Constitution. The boats
were almost identical in appearance. After
waiting at the lightship for about 10 min
utes the judges apparently decided that
the wind was too near the southwest to
risk starting from the lightship, 50 the
whole fleet started off to the eastward.
On the way signals were hoisted ON
the flagship for a windward beat for 10
miles and return.
The preparatory gun was fired at IL 80
Five minutes later the warning signal
was given.
Both yachts at the time were on the
leeward of the line, the Constitution being
farther away. Both yachts at once be-
gan maneuvering for position. The start
ing gun was fired at IL 40. The Columbia
crossed the line first and to the wind
ward at IL 40:22 and the Constitution
right under her lee at ii :23 Both boats
went over the line on a starboard tack,
the wind being about southwest. In the
first half of a mile the Columbia pulled
up a bit on the Constitution. Later, how
ever, the new boat drew up on her, so
that she was almost on even terms,
though still to the leeward When the
yachts had covered about mile of the
course they were still standing out to sea
on the starboard tack. The Columbia,
from this point, seemed to have gained a
bit to windward. During the next five
minutes the Columbia outpointed the
Constitution and was apparently gaining
to windward.
AT l2:40 p. m. the Constitution was sail
ing under fore staysail and baby jib top
sail. The Columbia was running away
from her and was almost mile ahead of
the new boat, going very fast.
At l2;4e the Constitution reset her jib,
but was over mile astefn of the Column
bia. 1t looked as if the new boat had
her iib halyards carried away, as she was
sailing without a jib for more than 10
minutes.
The Columbia turned the outer mark at
:05, the Constitution at l:27: 10.
The Columbia crossed the finish line at
2;32:35, the Constitution at 2:33:lS

The Woman and Her Clothes.

when woman devOtes one-half OF
her life TO thoughts Of dress she abso-
lutely takes the whole question out Of
its proper relation to her life. and be-
Titles the talents which God gave her
FOR far greater things" writes Edward
Box, in reply ia a woman correspond
ent. in the Ladies' Home Journal. 1T
is. indeed. grave question whether
she does not debase herself. Nor will
she be well drcssed;' the chances are
far greater that she will be over
dressed No woman who has any re-
gard for what is worth while in this
world, and for what will bring her the
surest and fullest happiness in the
long run, will so dissipate her ener
gies and vitality. The right to dress
prettily and becomingly belongs 10
every woman. Ii is her birthright and
her duty. A disregard of dress, or the
affectation of queer or freakish dress
ing. does not belong TO a normal wom-
an. But TO make dress one of the vital
things Of life is carrying IL beyond the
ridiculous point and close to the Grim
inal. And ii is just this rightful ad-
justment of the things in life which
simplicity does for us. 1t gives a right
full place and a rightful value to each.
1t doesn't belittle the one nor distort
the other"
