A Remarkable Series.

"A III em0r rkaDle SerlcS.
The series of races just closed will
always be memorable as the closest
ever sailed for the cup, and Sir Thom-
as, although defeated, will go home
with the satisfaction of knowing that
his golden yacht is the ahlest for
eign boat that ever crossed the west
ern ocean. During both series of
races not an untoward incident has
occurred, and Sir Thomas will return
to England by far the most popular
of all the foreigners who have chal-
lenged for the Americas trophy. Fri
days race, on paper, was the closest
of the series, but because of the
flukiness of the wind on the beat
home, as a contest of the relative
merits of the yachts, it is not to be
compared with the magnificent, truly
run and royalty fought battles OF
Saturday and Thursday.
The Finish.
At the close of the race, the Colum-
bia was just underneath the Sham
rocks lee bow. It was heart-breaking,
the seconds dragged like minutes. AS
they drew near the line it was seen
that what had seemed to be safe lead
for the Shamrock had become doubt
full proposition. A second later and it
developed almost to a certainty that
even if the Shamrock should cross the
line first the Columbia was within her
time allowance and had the race. AL.
most as one boat they went across the
line, Shamrock first, but the Columbia
so few seconds behind her that it made
no difference. Thus Columbia won in
three straight races. She was the VIC
