LARGE YACHT RACE.

TnE handicap yacht race for vessels owned by members of the Auckland Yacht Club, which was postponed from tlio 24th inst., eventuated this afternoon. The weather was not all that could have been desired, but it was good enough to insure a race, the water being smooth, and the wind blowing lightly from the southward. Captain Persson, master of the barque Easterhill, was starter and judge, and Mr H. Parker, of H.M. Customs, handicapper. The handicaps, as we previously stated, are contained in a sealed envelope, and will not be mado known until the conclusion of the race, so there is a probability of the " last being first " or the " first being last," as the merits of the yachts and the handi cappers'anticipationsmaydecide.The course w-as as follows : From a line of! the end of Queen-street Wharf, round a buoy moored off the Lake Beach, round the Hulk Clara Hargreaves, round a boat mowed oil' the Sugar Works and back to the point of start ing. The yachts entered were ; Maratea, 7 tons, H. Cramond ; Matangi, 13 tons, J. Carlaw; Rita, 13 tons, T. Henderson • Tawera, 6$ tons; J. Wiseman; Maritana, 12 tons, W. Bindon ;• Spray, GJ tons, A. Gibbs ; Wenona, 15 tons, \V. Phillipson. The Star*. After considerable delay the yachts were despatched at 12.15 under a fresh S.S.W. breeze, to a slashing start, the Maratea being to windward, and next to her the Maritana, Rita, Matangi, and Tawera all in a cluster, the Tawera leading and the Spray and Wenona being well to leeward. Cap tain Persson, of the barque Easterhill, was the starter. Immediately ' after the start the Rita and Matangi set their spinnakers, and the Matangi also ran out a \yatersail, while the Winona stretched to the wind a jib-topsail. At the Calliope Dock the Tawera was still leading the Matangi, while the Mara tea, Rita and Maritana followed in a line about 30 yards behind, with the Spray and "Wenona to leeward and slightly astern. In passing the North Shore Wharf the Mara tea sot her spinnaker, the relative positions of the vessels being unchanged except that the Spray had gone to windward of the Wenona and Rita The North Head was rounded at 12.45 in the following order: — Eita leading the Matangi and Tawera, with the Maritana and Maratea together, and the Wenona and Spray last. Tlic Bum Down. The Rita led after rounding the North Head, and until Rangitoto was a-beam, when, through getting too far to leeward, she was passed by the Matangi, which kept much closer io the wind. From this stage, the Matangi took up the running, and led the way at a merry pace down tho channel. The Keturn.. At 1 o'clock the Matangi rounded, the Lake* buoy from the western side, and' at an interval of 2| minutes was followed by tiie .Ritf).,, hotly pursued by the Mara tea. The Spray'\nd Wenona rounded the buoy fourth arid fifth, about a minute behind the Maratea. In coming up the channel again, the Wenona improved her position, but got to far to leeward. At 1.20, when nearly off the reef, the Matangi. went about, standing in towards the Lake, and in this tactic was followed by the Rita and Maratea, which were still second and third. ■ The others also went about at 1.25. The Rita was the first in stays off the Lake shore about a quarter of a mile to leeward of the IVlatangi, which held the best wind, and which came about immediately after the Rita. The Maratea followed the Rita at a distance ,of a quarter of a mile, and the.Rita in turn was about the same distance astern of the Matangi. At it 35., the Maratea and Wenona fouled off 'the near end of the Lake beach, the Wenona's jibboom being canght under the main boom and main sheet of the Maratea.

_ The pilot schooner was passed as fol lows : —

Matangi ... lh. 20m. Rita y ... .. ._. ... lh. 23-Jm; Besides being 3& minutes behind the Matangi at the above stage, the Rita was fully a quarter of a mile to leeward. The rest of the competitors were about two miles astern, and it was just as the Matangi passed the pilot schooner that the Wenona and Maratea got clear of each other, so that thy lost five minutes by the collision. The Matangi kept very close in shore to Stark's Point, and the Rita came on close - hauled. Stark's Point was passed by the two lead ing boats in the following order:— Matangi Ih. 43gm. Rita lh. 51-_m. Up the Harbour. At two o'clock the Matangi showed her nose round the North Head, and stood oyer pretty close to theTamaki beforestnndingup the harbour, At nine minutes past two, the Rita made her appearance round the Head,

and followed in her rival's wake. The other five yachts at this stage wore still miles astern. Off the Bastion the Matfingas top mast snapped half-way up, and the gaff topsail came clown at once. The Matangi passed Queen-street Wharf at twelve minLtes to 3 with a jury-rigged topsail; and the Rita passed the wharf six minutes later. The Maratea and Maritana passed the Clara Hargrayes at 3 p.m. ; Tawera a short distance behind. After rounding tlio hulk, thM her jib topsail, but, from some unseen cause, the topsail and jib topsail both got carried away.

ACCIDENT IN A SHOOTING GALLERY.

Tlic Proprietor Shot ia tlic Check.

At threo o'clock this afternoon an accident occurred at tho shooting gallery near tho market entrance. A young man named McDonald was in tlio gallery firing a few shots for pastime, when Reid, tho owner, stooped down in front of McDonald to pick up something just as the trig ger was being pulled. McDonald gave a warning cry, but it was too late, for tho shot, a small bullot, struck Reid on tho cheek, just below tho eye. He was at once removed to Dr. Tennant's, blood streaming from the wound. Dr. Ton naut advised his immediate removal to tho Hospital. It is not yet known whether tho wound is dangerous. The accident was witnessed by Mr Mendoza, who statos that no blame is attributable either to McDonald or Reid. Tlio occurrence was a pure inadvortence.
