For several days past there has been exhibition at

embracing many new ideas that 1t has attracted
much attention II is the result of extended expert
m, nts made by Mr.. Henry Bergh, Jr, the Hudson
River ut Statsburg. The model shows two distinct
boats, each 81 inches long, inches beam, inches

supporting rods Of the centre beams hold the
board trunk IN position, while they also form a solid
support for the aud shrouds The cabin placed
aft between the Two boats, and it contains a whcel
which operates both rudders. The cross beams
held by braccd supports that raise tho former aud also
the cabin above the reach OF the being connected
TO the supports, which fastened to the boats by
or stern oil either boat to rise Q
without lifting the other. The shroucs
pass through pulley blocks to allow Of this
tion OF the boats. while thc arrangement
and, therefore, prevents tue bow OF the leeward boat
from being forced under water. Tho m0deller of the
yacnt has found that the boats far from each
other that wedging OF the between them pre-.
vented. The rudders are provided with drops similar
the ordinary centrcboard, which gives additional
but one and quarter inches. Diagonal rods brace the
framework in manner that keeps tho boats lcvei with

Mr. Bergh has been experimenting with boats OF this

only three feet IN length It attained no high oi
speed Experiments have proven that the larger model
