subject of ridicule fcr their recent ac

dimension-seekers. The challenger

mast is also mad,-?, and this will De
tested on the Clyde in .the preliminary
trials when good tests will be made.
It may be used in the races, .though
in case it proves too rigid, will not

cihtain plates, the wooden mast will be
used. The challenger will have a very
large sail plan, quite 13,000 square feet
in working sails, with nearly 85 feet
from deck to hounds.

.no .information leaks out, that he will
jniake them substantial presents. The
Shamrock is building in a corrugated
iron shed, and for the last week has
been guarded by defectives both, day
and n.Wit.
I The chall-en-gsi" will net be far off in
her dimeinsions from the new Defender
and 'this is ishown by the fsw tons
difference in the lead ballast which is

be tiled cut on this side.
