AQUATICS.

The total araouDt of prize money (! n ad dition to trophic*) offered for competition by tho Auckland Kegatta Club on January 29th is £401. V. j The brothers Blott, of Lincoln-street, i Punsonby, hunched a nice 3-ton pleasure ■ yacht oa Saturday afternoon. She is not 1 built for rac'ng purposes, but will probably prove a go<d sailer. ! Mr Aft. Warbrick his been requosted tp retain thi whaleb'-at he is now building for Napier for enfry in the Auckland Regatta. He intends to try and arrange with the owners accordingly. The boat ia a likely looking crafr,3ltt. 6io. in length.and would be enteied for both all-comers and junior compete ions. .* A tie* 13ft. boat for the Auckland Regatta is in course of construction by. Mr C. Bailey, junr. The fiist and second prizes in the cutter race at the forthcoming regatta have each been fixed at £25. This is with tbe object ot introducing greater competition tnan formerly, and because the rangatira is considered almost certain to «arry off hr«t honours as usual. Several new vessels of this doss have recently been built, and this should bo a lame field A sttgge tion \v?s made to the Auckland Regatta Committee that the laree yachts should ba sent roand Tiritiri ', but in con- Bidcraiion of the fact that such a cour c takes the vctse's for some tinae away from pubic view, it was resolved to keep them as much within the I arbour as possible The competitors will probably include Mr Street's new ya-ht the Arawa, Jiita, Christiana, and others. The Waitara fc owing Club r. cntly »r.)te up to Auckland o< quiring panicalars respecting the wfcalcboat laces at the Ausk« | land Kegatta, their b ate being differeot from tb.i>so described in the programme. At a committee meeting, he!d later, the question of making another race* to permit of their entry was considered, but in view , of the large number of events previously atranged for, it was decided to make bo fresh arrangtments. * * During the Neir Year's holidays the yachts Kita, Miux, Vestal, Jessie Logan j and Quaker visited Kawau. On oew Year's eve eiic volleys were fired by the yachtsman as a welcome to the New Year, wbile '■ God Save the Queen " and " Auld Lang Syue" we:e sung to the accompa ni ment of two violins »nd a f pair of bones. The pa'ty on board tbe Jossie Logan, wbioh comprised Messrs Binge, W. Jones, aad A. Strettoirj had very good spoll, They shot o»e deer {* handsome buck), a largo "old man" kangaroo, and ten wallabio*. The Jfi(sie, which was iv excellent sailing tiim, made the home trip from Waiwera in two and a half h»ur«. ¥ It may not be generally known that we have now in our midst a most distinguished exponent of tbe natatory art in the person of Mr Joseph G. Pannell. This gentleman tor two years held the amateur champion ship of the Mersey (2i miles). Since his arrival in lfew Zealand he won tkc chal lenge championship of Wellington, aid the half-mile championship ot Taranaki. Ui Pannell is a ipleadid swimmer, and per forms vari«u» difficult ana amuting feats in the water. For the yacht rac« at the 1 yttleton Re gatta tlmre were threeentiiw : The 'ihatis (Utc of Auckland, a»d now owned in W»l ---lini;to«) ; the D»ve, of Cytt'cion j aid the Zephyr of Akaroa.

" Heuld "—let imings, 51 j 2ndinnin»s, 13 for tue loss of 3 wickets. The batting of Rowe (18) and uwen (15) for the Pousonby, and GilUspie (16) and Bruce (10) for tho " «erald," was very good.

ALPHA V. UNITED SECOND ELEVEN.

The United Second Eleven emtained what was probably the most di'giaccful defeat of the season on Saturday last at the linndt of 'he Alpha Club. The latter went in first, and scored 120, C. Abel getting 36, tioodacre 12, Jackson 11, Nesmt 11, and Done 11. The United team collapsed utteily, the whole eleven only pnttiug to gether 5 runs in their fiist inningt, and one. of the*e being a tiye. Goodacre bowled splendidly, getting 7 wickets for 2 runs, while Kiipatrick got two at the cost of only two run?. la the second innings, Unltwl trot 10 runs for the loss of 8 wickets, Kiipatrick this time taking 5 wickets for 2 tuns, and Goodacre 2 for 7 runs. The match was thus won by Alpha o« the result of tho first iu«i»gi, with 115 runs to spare. T. & S, Moerin v, j£. Pouter & Co.

Perhaps the most interrsting match in the Domain cricket ground on Jjatorday was the annual contest between the em p'.oyds of Me>srs E. Porter and Co. and T. and S. Morrin and Co. Messrs Porter's men took tho first ionin;s with Moginie (captain) and Nelson handling the willow. Moginia was tne first to go, being bowled by Clayton after a oplcndid innings, in which 20 runs were placed to his credit, melson, whose running had beon much admired, soon after retired under the bowling of Colbourne — two wickets for 24, The majority ef the rest wore contented with " duck eggs." Mr Gummer played a long and very care ful innings, carrying oat his bat, the total score for fi. Porter and Co. being 30. Mr Cole proved an excellent wicket-keeper for Morrin and Co., and Co'bourne's bowling was most effective ■ Morrin's team then went in, and though no one did anything brilliant, seemed a much better average than their rivals. Messrs Colbournß, T. S. Drummond, Swanson, and Farquhar were the best contributors to the score. The fitlding of Porter and Cos. men was very creditable, three of Morrin'a being caught out nearly in succession,- Mosinie's bowling was very effective, but the want of a good wicket-keeper was felt. The match re sulted in a victory for Morrin and Co. by one run.

PONS INISY V. AUCKXASD 2ND ELEVEN.

This match was played in the Domain on Saturday and resulted in a victory for Auckland in the first innings, iioldsbip (25), Webster (18). and Williams .(18) were the largest contributors to the Auckland scurc, four wickets going down for SI runs, while tho Fonsouby eleven were all out for 41, of which J. Hall made 13 and Andrews 5. •

The match will be continued next Saturday. The lushest Fcoreis were : Woods (of Waikato) for * uckland, and Lankham and Swanson for North Shore. W. Lankbam bowled l taking 7 wickets for 14 runs.
