bound" the high-speed mOtorboat
Challenger has been placed aboard al
fiat car and sent to New York by her
owner, w. Gould Brokwaw.
To know that the Challenger was
going away was like parting with a
good friend, but Mr.. Brokaw will have
his boat at Palm Beach again next sea-
son for the water carnival and motor
boat races.
The Challenger, established a splen-
did record here during regatta week,
making a mile in 2:04 2-5, a record
which was received everywhere with
enthusiasm. Since that time the boat
has done better. This was Tuesday
morning, February s, when she made
a record of a mile in 2:02 in a trial
speed on Biscayne Bay, at Miami.
Mr.. Brokaw had the Challenger out
on several speed trials on Lake Worth.
In one run the boat made a mile IN
2:08 2-5, and another in 2:03 1-5-the
best of these two records being 1 1-5
seconds better than her former best
record here. There was also a four
lenger averaged 1903 3-20 to the mile,
the four miles being covered in
S:12 3-5. The starters were Captain
Seorge E. Andrews and A. D. Proc
tor Smith, the other friends of Mr..
Brokaw interested in the record being
Ed. R. Bradley and John Moller, Jr.,
who acted as timers.
Mr.. Brokaw stated that at Miami his
boat had made the phenomenal record
OF mile in 1:41, but that this run.
as also the one in which she made a
mile in Las, was not official He will
remain here for some time longer be-
fore returning north.
Tuesday night Br. Brokaw received
telegram stating that his town house
in New York city had been destroyed
by fire, none Of the valuable collection
of curios, oil paintings and art treas
ures being saved. The house was To-
Gated at Madison Avenue and Sixty
