WILL SAIL OVER COURSE.
New Method Of Rating Power Boats
By Cobbosseecontee Yacht Club.

The regatta committee of the Cob
bosseecontee Yacht Club at a meeting
held July decided upon new method
of classification and handicap for use
in the power boat races to be held this
year; and the committee hopes the
new rule will meet with such favor
as to warrant its becoming a perma-
nent feature in the annual regatta. The
rule is as follows:
All boats competing in the annual
power boat races of the club must run
over the course previous to the race
and have their time taken by a COM
mittee appointed for this purpose. The
time of each boat will be recorded. and
the boats classified according to their
time. Then the boats in each class will
be handicapped or rated on this same
basis of running time over the stand
ard course. in such a manner as to
put all the boats Of one class on an
even footing. To allow for variation
in speed of any boat between trial run
and time in actual race, and to insure
fairness in the trials, per cent.
limit of speed is alloWed-that is, any
boat which exceeds in the race its
time in the trial run by more than .
per cent shall be disqualified. All
boats subject to the other rules and
regulations, as used by the club in
previous races
The old way of classifying by over
all measurement and racing the boats
without handicapS has proven unsatlS-
factory to many and the regatta COM
mittee has been investigating the rules
and methods in use by other clubs AZ
ter careful consideration the commit
tee has decided that the method as de-
scribed above is the one best adapted
to our use and the one which Will give
the greatest satisfaction to all This
method of classification and rating has
been employed with excellent results
in other clubs. and should meet with
much favor here.
Wednesday and Saturday afternoons
July and II, from to o'clock, the
club committee for trials of power
boats over the standard course, will
be at Hotel Pines landing. the starting
point of the course being a flag buoy
directly in front of hotel. All launch
owners are requested to report here
on one of these afternoons to sail over
the course and have their boats time
recorded by the committee.
1t is hoped that every launch on the
lake will report for the trials, in order
to be listed for the races of this sea-
SON The dates for races will be an
nounced very soon, and this years
races should prove to be very inter-
esting, and draw good sized attend
ance of OnloOkers.
Every boat please report to the COM
mittee on one of these afternoons for
trial time, thus insuring a large entry
for the races.

The Fourth in Augusta was very
quiet ana almost without sufficient in
cident to designate the day. Tho day
was ushcrcd i'll with the usual hula
baloo of horns, revolvers and fire
crackers on the night before but the
dav itself was very quiet. Large num-
bers of people went to Gardiner or to
other places where celebrations were
held, as we'll as down river and to the
lakes, while the few who remained at
home seemed contcnted to get into
some comfortable place away from the
heat and stay there. The only excite
ment of the day was a baseball game
in the afternoon on the Reuel Williams
field which called out a good attend
ance and furnished no end OF fun. Inc
game was between the Edwards team
and the FirCmen, and although the
former won by a score of IA to there
WAS not so much difference between
