made last week at Lebanon.
The three heats paced by Peter
Stevens average we'll below 2.06,

and 2.04 "a. G. Ray Snedeker, of

by George P. P. Bonnell, of Hillcrest,
formerly of Port Chester, n. Y,
which rode out the recent heavy
storm while moored at the Whining
ton Yacht Club. has been hauled out.
repaired, renovated and again is
moored at the yacht club. She was
the only boat that stood the tempest.
Every other craft at the yacht club
either sank or ran aground
The Old Glory was built by Mr.
Bonnell at his home in Port Chester
and he came from there in her arriv-
ing two days before the storm. She
is "a feet long and has a speed Of
rs miles an hour. Her owner says he
is willing to race the Tech Jn. for
90 miles with honors even or will
take a short course race if the Tech
will run two miles to his one.
The boat is equipped with a Loew-
Victor 40-horse-power engine. She is
an open boat with a finely fitted out
cockpit having wicker chairs to seat
eight persons. During the storm sew
eral planks in her bow we're stove in
and Mr.. Bonnell had her hauled out
ard taken to his home at Hillcrest
where he made repairs and reprinted
her before again placing her in the
water.
One of the greatest river events
pending at this time is the long river
and bay ride Of the Irish-American
Association, which will be taken on
the Sylvan Dell, September u. Cape
May. Lewes and Bowers Beach will
be the stopping places during the
trip.
The river carnival Of the United
Boat Club, which was TO have been
held on September IS, has been post
poned until September rs. This was
decided upon on Tuesday evening at
a meeting of the carnival committee.
The reason for the postponement is
that the race of the Camden Boat
Club from their headquarters at Cam
den, n. J., to Ship John Light for the
dupont trophy will be held Septem-
Der Is and the local club does not
want to conflict with other river
events. Subscriptions for the prizes
are being received by the carnival
committee and the success of the af-
fair will not be affected by the
change of dates.
The United Boat Club tomorrow
will entertain the members of the
Knickerbocker Club of this city by a
run to Salem, where they will visit
the Salem Rod, Gun and Yacht Club
The party will number about one
hundred and they will leave the Or
chard at Eleventh street bridge at
o'clock in the morning.

boat c. c. c., enjoyed a successful
