A New KIND OF BoAr.-Capt. John Cunning
ham, Of Paducah, proposes to build hre and
waterproof boat. The Paducah News says:
81 His plan is to build the hull containing six
water-tight bulkheads viz: two at the bow, two
at the stern, and tw O in the middle; her tlmbers
TO be lined with galvanized iron, and what may
be called extra guard rising about the hull,
,nd in line with the same, to prevent the water
int no hnll nv a..
the outer guard should be sunk below the water.
He proposes 10 build the cabin and all OF Its
attachments out Of galvanized iron, which can
be finished up with as much elegance and taste
as woodwork, and with but little more Werk and
little more cost. Capt. Cunningham wants to
| build safe boat-safe from the terrible dangers
of fire and water. To attain the two important
points we believe that Capt. C.'s model is simply
perfec ;ion. We earnestly desire that the captain
| NAV induce some enterprslng steamboat firm to
build boat after the plan above mentioned
and that it may walk the water full Ct life Tor
| hundred years.
