LIPTON’S CHALLENGER IS SPEEDY

Shamrock IV, Sir Thomas Lipton’s new America’s cup challenger, is proving Itself very speedy in the trial sails. It is here seen,' at the left, racing with ■ Shamrock 111 in the Solent to determine its comparative speed and other sailing merits. The design of Shamrock IV is decidedly peculiar, especially the shape of the hull. In a light breeze, it is predicted, the yacht will easily outsail any of the American defenders.
