The once-famous Columbia (stated the Syren of September 15 )is coming to England, not as the wonderful creation of beauty she was when defending the America Cup against Sir Thomas Lipton's Shamrock I and Shamrock 11, in ISflO and 1901, but as shot and shell. This celebrated vacht, which cost the New York Club' .£(10,000, has already been dismantled, and her steel frames, her lead keel of 100 tons, and the brass fittings will be converted into missiles of war. Who could have prophesied such an ending for a boat built for the peaceful amenities of "an international yachting competition?
