RACING IN PERFECT WEATHER.

Yesterday afternoon the third regatta
OF the Narragansett Bay Yacht Racing
association was favored with almost ideal
weather conditions in Mount Hope bay,
the events being under the auspices OF the
Fall River Yacht club. The wind held
good throughout the afternoon. all the
boats finishing in good time, not a single
accident marring the success OF the event.
There were % entries. avery good num-
Der for a Fall River regatta, and every
boat sailed over the court. Altogether
the race was about as nearly perfect In
every respect as could be seen.
The entries were arranged in six classes,
and the winners were the Cape Cod sloop
lola (on time allowance). which defeated
both Little Rhody and Priscilla, the Bris-
tol sloop Unique. the Rhode Island and
Edgewood cats Mblem and Nobska and
the Fall River cat Ingomar. Second prizes
went to the Cape Cod sloop Eleanor NJ.
the Bristol yawl Mistral the Washington
Park sloop Terror and the Rhode Island
and Edgewood boats Elizabeth and Ina
There was a stiff whole sail breeze
from the southwest that sent the boats
over the course with life. A little before
reaching the outer marks there was a
slight lull in the breeze that continued
for n short time. and then there came
freshened force that sent the boats flying
down the wind for the finish line at a
fine clip. The course for the sloops was
from the starting line OFF the clubhouse,
southwest 10 and around Mount Hope
buoy, and return TO the line. distance
OF 10h miles. For the cats the course
was about the same. only several points
more 10 the south. 10 and around Com
mon Fence Point buoy and return. about
10L miles. This gave beat TO windward
and a run back to the line. The starting
line and the finish was between the club
house and the stern OF the naval reserve
