THE SHAMROCK IFS TRIAL.
To DismnntIe the Challenging Yacht
on July IL.

ROTHESAY, July 2.-The Shamrock II
will remain in Rothesay Bay until Thurs
day. when she will so to the Bamash for
a weeks trial She viii be dismantled on
July 13. and will at once be fixed up with
her ocean rig for the voyage to New
York
No matter what the result Of the races
for the Americas Cup may be Sir Thomas
Upton will build a big racer of the
Britannia type for British yachting
Both of the Shamrocks were anchored
in Rothesay Bay this morning. with their
head sails in stops waiting for a modera-
ton of the easteriy wind.
In an interview today Sir Thomas Lip
ton said that he would pay no attention
to the challenge of Kenneth NJ Clark. to
pit the Shamrock ii against Kariad and
let the winner compete for the America s
cup Sir Thomas said that tie scheme
was impracticable. Mr. Watson and Mr..
Jameson regard the proposal as amusing.
They say that there is no possibility of
ii through, but If Mr. Clark is
anxious. Mr. Jameson says that he can
arrange match between the Shamrock
II and the Kariad after the chalIenger's
trial races, for the best three in five
races at forty-five miles. under American
rules and for $500 a race Sir Thomas
Upton is willing to lend his boat to Mr..
Jameson for this purpose.
No one here believes that the Kariad
would have chance against either of the
ohamrocks. Emperor Williams Meteor
ana Whitaker Wright's Sybarita are both
faster than Kariad.

AN ICE FAMINE AVERTED.
Timely Arrival of n Schooner From
Maine Dispels Thnt Fenr.

The Great Falls lee Company received
large shipment Of ice yesterday and late
last night. and a schooner from Maine is
just outside the bridge at the mouth of
the Georgetown channel bringing another
large supply. For some days past the hot
weather has made great inroads on the
stock Of ice held by the various local
ice concerns. and for a ti..le il was feared
in some quarters that an ice famine might
possibly add 10 the suferings occasioned
by the hot weather But the arrival of
the ice schOOners in the Potomac has re
lieved any anxiety that may have been
felt.
The ice men have been among the great
est sufferers, physically, during the torrid
wave. Although they handle the cold

Delightful Trips to Mount vernon

The cool trip to Mount Vernon via the
swift and convenient electric trains of
the Washington. Alexandria and Mount
Vernon Railway Company is without
doubt the most refined and enjoyable
manner of spending the day so beloved
by all patriotic Americans. The beautiful
shaded lawn famed by the cool breeZes
of the Potomac, will afford a delightful
retreat from the picnic crowds and OBJ
jectionable features of noisy excursion
resorts. Then. too, the many historical
and traditional points Of interest along
this popular route are all located and
ably explained by competent narrators,
thus making the trip instructive as well
as the most fascinating in the country.
Those avaiIing themselves of this trip viii
return well satisfied that the day was
not wasted. The trains, which leave the
station at Pennsylvania Avenue and
Thirteen-and-a-half Street every hour
from 10 Il. m. until 3 p. m. are the fastest
in the world. and the ride alone is well
worth taking.
