Boom in Schooner Yachts,

NEW YORK, October 29.-There will
probably be boom in the schooner class
of yachts next season, and this boom is
to be credited to the successes Of the
Westward in European waters That
yacht has shown that ito have speed
strength and seaworthiness need not be
sacrificed: and an owner can have a
first-class schooner which he can race
successfully, and at the same time have
a good comfortable cruising yacht The
British rule has been tried and proved
a good one and there is little doubt that
the American rule can be proved to
be good just as easily If some yachtsman
will take the trouble to have a fast
cruising yacht built In the first class
there are today the Elmina, Queen,
Corona and Ingomar These We're not
all built to the same rule and they are
not as stanch and seaworthy boats as
the Westward. and the British rule must
receive credit for the splendid schooner
Westward. which has had nothing but
praise from European critics.

A question which has been argued pro

and last. too. for that matter. is whether
or not base ball is going back.
Appearances at present are very much
in favor of the affirmative side of the
question: there can be no doubt in the
mind of the close student of the game
that Americas national pastime is SLOW
ly but surely deterorating; not necessa-
rily a permanent deterioration, but one
which will manifest itself for several
years TO come. The present-day galaxy
of stars reached it's zenith four or five

continue for several years until the
standard of perfection which prevailed
several years ago will have been attain

is evidenced by the mad scramble being
made each year for promising G. looking

that one out of every ten or eleven of
these bushmen is able to make the big
