YIGILAHT AGAIN BADLY BEATEN
The New Yacht Led by Over Hvo Minutes
at the Finish and Might Easily Have
Made the Distance Between the
Contestants Much Greater.
Nnw YoltK, Aug. 81. Tho third so
called trial race betwoon Defonder and
Vigilant, which took plnco yesterday, was'
u good deal of u furoo. Defender won over
n courso of ton miles to windward and ro
turn by flvo minutes nnd twolvo seconds,
when slio could have crossed tho finish
lino anywhere from eight to ten minutes
ahead of Vigilant if sho had been sallod
for all sho was worth. The magnificent
showing that Defendor mado on Thurs
day in all kinds of weather and on all
points of sailing croatod so much enthu
siasm that Mr. C. O. Isolln, tho ohlof man
ager of tho syndicate which built tho
yacht, may hnvo como to the conclusion
that the boat uncovered her qualities too
much, nnd possibly ho decided to pull
back a little. Defendor mado a taok just
boforo rounding tho outor mark, which
sho would hnvo had no occasion to do if
shohnd beon woll handled, and which
cost her a mluuto or more. In all tho
b;atlng down to tho outor mark Defender
was sailed with a rap full or more. No
effort at any time was mado t to koop hor
pointed up to tho wind. Vigilant, on tho
other hand, was sailed as sho always Is,
in the most sportsmanlike mannor.
On Thursday In a bent of eight miles,
Defendor boat Vigilant flvo minutes and
flvosoconds; on a run beforo tho wind tho
keol boat boat tho centorboardor ovor tho
tamo distance two minutes and thirteen
seconds, when tho wind was light. Yos
terdny, whou thoro was a good breeze At
tho start, ton miles an hour, which in
creased a couplo of mllos boforo tho racors
turned tho outor mark, Defendor in a
ton mllo leg beat Vigilant only five inln
utos nnd twonty-two seconds; nnd on tho
run homo boforo tho wind, during which
thoro was nevor loss than an eighteen knot
broozo, Vlgllnnt picked up ton seconds.
On Thursday tho water was as smooth as
a mill pond, whllo yestorday thoro was no
soa that could bo callod hoavy or oven
choppy.
Tho preparatory whlstlo was blown
promptly nt 11 o'clock. Tho signal to
start was blown ten mluutos later. After
crossing tho lino on tho starboard tack
Vigilant was tho first to come about. Do
fondor wunt in stays, too, nnd although
sho camo up into the wind live or six soo
onds lator than Vigilant, sho was fully on
tho other tack boforo tho contorboardor.
Whon both boats had como around to tho
port taeU Defendor was nearly a sixteenth
of a mile ahead In that flr.it flvo minutes
of tho race. At 11:33 Vigilant wont about
again, and Defender followed suit in
stantly. The broozo froshonod to about twolvo
knots an hour at this tlnio.nnd both racors
folt it simultaneously. They stood on a
long board, and it was not until 12:01 that
Defender came about. Vigilant romalnod
on tho Bamo taok until 13:03. Ten inln
utos lator Defendor camo around to the
starboard and crossod Vlgllant's bow. Sho
stood on Mint taok for throo minutes and
then camo about to port woll on Vlgl
lant's weather bow, and stood down for
tho outer mark. It looked as though sho
could hnvo made tho mark, but sho did
no. Sho mado a couplo of tucks beforo
rounding. Vigilant mado a good long
tack to port and then camo about to stand
woll ovor to tho eastward. Her noxt tack
fetched hor around tho mark with oase.
Defendor was then flvo minutes nnd
twenty-two sooonds ahead. Sho gibed
ovor and prepared for hor run boforo
tho wind homo. But that preparation,
which included tho sottting of the spin
naker and tho baloon jib topsail, was per
fected in a very slow niuunor. Then camo
tho run homo boforo tho wind.
Iu view of Defender's groat work on
Thursday, on a run beforo tho wind, mnny
people thought she would beat Vigilant
yesterday. On tho contrary, Vigilant
gained tea seoonds on l.er, und Defonder
wai the winner by lire minutes nnd
twelvo seconds, as the following olHolal
time table will show:

The raoers had not procoeded a mile on
their courso when tho lCngllsh yntmt Val
kyrlo loomed up to the northward, beat

She was nevor nearer to the Vigilant than

up a .f'ijd donl of fuss in the water. Val

Last Night.
AN OLD COMPLAINT REYIYED !
The Case of Anthony Flynn to be Again
Investigated by the Committee on
Nuisances Reports on Deaths
by Committees.
A regular meeting of the Hoard of Health
was held iu the Council Chamber last night
with tho following members in attendance :
Messrs. Malone, Miles, Jfcllale, Morrison and
President Spalding.
Anthony Flynn, of the First ward, appeared
and complained of a uuisanco caused by the
stream of water which is used as an outlet
for sewerage of the various properties on
North Main street and. other pRrts of the
town.
This matter has been before tho lioard and
Iiorough Council frequently during tho past
few months and it is understood that a con-
sulatlon of tho borough authorities and
counsel resulted in a conclusion that tho
borough had no power in tho ' matter, but as
-Mr. Flynn made a special plea before tho
lioard last night for the abatement of a nuis
ance, tho nuisauco committee was instructed
to make an investigation and sco what nuis
ance exists.
Tho epidemic committee reported that since
August 18th one case of typhoid fever, ono of
diphtheritic croup and threo of diphtheria
had been reported to it.
The committee on necrology reported that
during tho same period 20 burial permits
were issued. Nine of the deceased wcro non
residents, live from Win. Penn, and ono each
from tlilberton, St. Nicholas, Mahanoy Plane
and Yatcsville. Twenty-seven of tho deceased
were children under two years of ago and the
causes of death wcro assigned as follows :
Cholera infant! 10 ; marasmus, 0 ; entero
colitis, 3; convulsions, 2; cirrhosis of liver,
1 ; acute pnciiinnm-i, 1 ; diphtheritic croup,
1 ; accidental, 1 ; natural causes, 1 ; prema
ture biith, 1; unknown, no physician in
attendance, 1 ; still birth, 1.
Health Ollicer Coury mado an exhaustive
report on work performed silico the last
meeting and called special attention to tho
case of John Kane, of West street. Kane
drained an outhouse into a street gutter and
told the ollicer he did not think he was doing
anything wrong. Ho was so we'll convinced
he was not an aggressor that ho refused to
desist in his work and the lloalth Ollicer ar
rested him. Mr. Conry said Kane had sinco
concluded that ho was in tho wrong nnd was
willing to scttlo by paying tho costs of tho
suit. He recommended a settlement, asKano
was a poor man and ho believed tho oxamplo
set would have a good cil'ect.
Attention was railed to the case of Edward
Orilliths, who died tills week. No return, or
application for a burial permit, was made to
the lioard and the Health Ollicor was in
structed to investigate tho matter.
