YACHT CLUB REGATTA.
BOATS START ON 4 WEEKS
 CRUISE THIS MORNING.

Races on Saturday Pulled of Under
 Ideal Weather and Water Conditions
 -Fast Sailing by the Boats-Rosalic
 and Karma Win Out-Pr0gramme of
 the Cruise of the New York Yacht
 Club.
 The annual regatta of the New Haven Yacht club, which had to be postponed on the Fourth of July, was successfully carried out on Saturday. The weather was ideal for the sport, and fast time was made by many of the boats. The stakeboat, for some reason, drifted from it's original position and led the yachtsmen a merry dance until the dis covery was made. At the banquet held in the evening after the finish of the races every one voted the regatta a great success.
 In the first division for boats over twenty seven feet the winner was Ros- allie, sailed by Commodore Parmelee, and in the second the Karma, with Leo- pold at the tiller, made a runaway race and won easily.
 There was a fine west wind blowing when the launch Cynthia, carrying the judges and members of the club, reached the starting point, which lay south of the main breakwater. The course signalled was made up of beat of three miles to windYard and due south to stakeboat, then swinging to the east to round the buoy on Town sends ledge and return to the starting point, and was to have been gone over twice by the larger and once by the small boats.
 The racers were little late in start ing and it was 2:90 o'clock before the warning gun was fired and the boats began iockeying for the positions to windward of the line. Ten minutes lat CT the gun flashed for the start of the first division. Commodore Mitchelps Notos was first over the line twenty seconds after the gun, followed closely by the Rosalie, Mimosa and the Game cock. The Mimosa went at once to lee ward and began to draw away from the others, while the Rosalie and Gamecock were indulging in pretty duel for the weather position, all laying a course about southeast.
 Once the racers were fairly started, some very fine work was accomplished by the owners of the boats in the vari- ous classes. The run home was very pretty sight, indeed Every boat car ried all the sail she could, and as they glistened in the rays of the sun the pie ture was an extremely pretty one.
 The Karma rounded the second mark an hour later and trimmed her sheets for the reach home, fourteen minutes before her nearest competitor jibed for the mark, and came home a-humming. She gained two minutes on the Kitty wink, Captain Phelps, which was next around the mark on the run home, and flew across the line with bells on" just fifteen minutes ahead of the Kittywink, a Sachems Head entry. The results were as follows:

Local Growers Expect to Haven Good
 Crop and Fruit Promises to be of
 Fine Quality
 Reports which are coming in from various parts of the state indicate that the supply of native fruit will be large enough to supply the wants of the av- craze housekeeper The crop is said to be smaller than usual, but on the other hand it is given out by those who know that it will be much finer quality.
