Tuesday morning our good citizens were
not Intle surprised at the arrival in orr
porto water craft of rather novel char

IN width. She is driven by Ericson's
propelIers. and will make eight or ten
miles an hour with ease. She has rather
tasty cabln,fited for about thirty cabin pas
gers. On her first trip, she had about for
ty tons offreight for ST. Johns, with which
she proceeded on her tip. stopping only
shorl time at this place. |! is said she
will carry ninety tons with ease and safe.

We understand the company to which
she belongs have several similar boats ia
readiness, which will follow her in few
days. tits intended they shall ply regn--
larry between St. Johns and New York,
without breaking bulk or dischargin pas
sengers. The fare has been fixed at 81

from st. Johns to Whitehall, and 1926
from ST. Johns TO Burlington. The fare
from Burlington TO New York is to be
