BARGE RACE IN THE RAIN.

VIGILANT WINS A GREAT RACE.

[By Commander H. M. Daniel, D.S.0, RN, in the Daily Mail]

The Thames Balling barge match ended in the rain last evening with an exciting race between Vigilant, of the coastal class, and Portlight, a river barge. Both had a good lead of the remainder of their class, and not until the vory end was the duel between them settled. Most sailing races have only three periods of interest to specta- | tora-the start, rounding the buoy, and the finish. But yesterday was different; every few minutes there was an incident of interest and often of excitement for those who take smiling seriously.

The wind was fresh enough to make the sailing good, blowing al- most straight down the courac, and obviously nearly all the barges had decided to run no risks of crassing the line before the gun; so much so that only Cambria mado a good start.

on the

Those who were keen sailing had arranged for early lunch, so as to see the rounding of the Mouse Lightship.

The Remercie made a splendid gybe round the buoy, hauling well to windward on the port tack: The Cambria close on her heels gybed (it seemed all standing) and carried away her topsull sheet. But she was not to be dismayed. By a very smart bit of seamanship she went about on to the starboard tack. A hand then laid out on the sprit and hove a new topsail sheet in remarkably good time.

After rounding the Mouse the race became a beat to windward. The leading barges kept close to the north shore, tacking close to the Essex sand banks,

"Hanging Judas,”

Bad luck pursued Plinimmon. The sprit carried away when on the port tack. The peak of her mainsail fell forlornly to lesward, "hanging Judas," as the seaman says. The skipper got'a knock on the head, the mainsheet man on the arm, but nobody was badly hurt. In a few minutes the tug Blue Circle had her in tow for Gravesend, where she is fitting a new apa ready for the Medway races on Saturday.
