YACHTS, ON FINAL RUN
Of NY. CLUB CRUISE,
HEAD FOR NEWPORT
With Hatches Battened Down,
They Get Away From Vine
yard Haven in Fine Wind.

VINEYARD HAVEN. Mass, Aug. IL.
The New York Yacht Club fleet start
ed back for Newport to-day on the NTH
and final run OF the annual cruise und ar
conditions that indicated 4 thrash to
windward Of thirty-seven miles. The
wind hauled well into the west during
the night. and this morning was piping
ND to ten knots and seemed to have
power enough behind 1t to reach fifteen
or twenty before the day was over.
Small lib topsails were hauled out for
the FIRST time on the cruise. and on the
small boats the matches were battened
down, for IL looked like a day OF flying
spray.
The start was OF West Chop, the small
yachts leaving at 1913 and the large
sloops FIVE minutes later. Many Of the
racers we're bothered somewhat by the
spectator fleet. for there must have been
hundred Cape cats and powerboats
buzzing about the line. The large
schooners went away at 1915 and then
came the Elena, Irolita, Sea Fox and
Endymion at 1880.
The Elena caught the start In fine
shape hard on the starboard tack. bu,
tackled Immediately to port on gettins
over. BY II o'clock all the yachts were
beating down Vineyard Sound with a
favorable tide, but against a twelve.
knot westerly breeze, and 1t looked like
late afternoon finish for the small
sloops. The Elena was leading wher
the fleet passed Tarpaulin Cove.

County Clerks throughout the state
have been advised to place the desig-

where the designation follows the

People Generally do not

Not very many people as yet seem
to understand the new income tax law
and great deal of difficulty in MAX
ing out proper returns is !had. In
order to be of help to as many as
possible Income Tax Assessor Lam
draint will hereafter spend one day
each week in 4 this city, : one day at
Bayfield, and three days at Ashland.
Already Mr.. Landraint has a large
stack of returns at his effice but
many will have to be returned for
correction.
In answering the questions on the
blank the amount should be put down
after the question in each case and if
you will read the blanks through
carefully very little trouble will be
experienced. Very few people in this
city will have to pay an income tax,
but nevertheless all persons receiving
a salary amounting to over $500 will
be compelled to make out blank.
