OF the executive committee of the centennial

not. il appears, characterized by the greatest
harmony. There was quite discussion upon
the question of the interior management OF
the exposition, and il looked as If the whole
commission would be called together to set

taken was the limiting OF authority placed

made subordinate officer TO Gen. Hawley

10 the exposition must be submitted and
without whose approval in everything the

NOVEL PRoPFLLER.-The New Haven
Palladium says that mechanic In that city,
named Jardi1e, has invented a method of
propelling boats by atmospheric pressure,
10y which he claims To be able 10 attain a
speed OF five miles an hour Tine boat which
he has taken for his experiment was a two
masted sharpe. Two kees have been placed
on the bottom, parallel with each other. The
motive power lies in a small engine, run by
a small boiler. This engine runs a blower,
which forces the air into an alright box
built in the bottom of the boat, little TO-
ward the stern. Three iron tubes lead from
the box through the bottom of the boat. being
flush with the outside. These tubes are in
clined TO the stern, and convey the COM
pressed air 10 the top OF the water. This air,
pressed against the surface of the water,
forces the boat forward without any swell.
The keels keep the air from spreading before
IL does its work. The inventor claims TO
have a very valuable invention and some-
thing that might be used TO advants ge, espe-
cially in canals. Mr.. Jardine has been ex-
perimenting with the boat for the last three
weeks. Its first trip was for a distance OF
several miles. The horse power needed as
propellipg power is very small indeed.

There are among the North American

There are among the North American
Indians some most curious accounts of
the creation, none more 30 than that of
the Utes of Colorado. Here, in brief,
is what they say: In the beginning the
earth was covered with mists. You
could not see before you. The Great
Spirit took his bow and arrows and shot
shot SO we'll that he scattered the mist.
The earth became visible to him, but
there were no men upon it. Then he
took clay, fashioned man and set him
to bake. Man came out white; the fire
had not been strong enough; the Great
Spirit began his work again, and this time
the man came out quite black; he had
remained too long in the oven. It was
necessary to try third time. The ex-
pertinent at lenght succeeded, and man
came out done to turn; he was a red
skin, the most perfect of human type.
