She Makes the Fastest Time Known Over
the Triangular Course.
New York, Oct. 4.-Columbia gave
Shamrock ii an awful beating yester-
day, with all conditions Just to the lik-

the north northwest that averaged IL

1t was a record bf eaking race for the
trophy, the 30-mile triangular course
having been sailed by the winner in 3

sloop ever equaled this, the next best
time over the courses hours 81 min-
utes-having been made by Columbia
two years ago when the first Shamrock's
topmast was carried away.
The wind was better yesterday than
on that occasion, and the way the two
yachts lay down to their work will long
be subject for pleasant recollection to
all who followed the race. Columbia
beat Shamrock on every point Of sail

triangular course, picking up two min

Britisher in 80 miles. Adding her 43
