audience last Saturday evening. A num-
Der of volunteers submitted themselves
as subjects for his experiments, one of

self into what the Doctor calls the statu-
volic state, which has been explained in
previous numbers of the GAZETTE. Two

The Snow Boat.

Two young Redwood mechanics, who
are known among their associates as Mr..
and Mrs. Gouge. are champions for the
right of their sex to emancipate them
selves from weak dependence upon
lovely woman for hash and the comforts
Of home. They have pooled their issues
and set up housekeeping in not very
romantic cot on Minnesota ave. One day
last week one of them read description
of snow boat which had been success
fully operated at Benson. and forthwith
bantered his chum to make contrlvance
of that kind for their own use. and the
idea was carried out at once. Something
less than a dollar was expended for ma
terial. they doing all the work on the
machine. and using an old tent for sail.
A trial trip was made on Monday. After
some delay in getting started, they spread
their sail from point about mile south
of town. and speeded away to Sleepy
Eye, over drifts and hills, and with utter
disregard for the roads, running twenty
five miles in three hours. We are sorry
that the boys didn't keep log book. after
the manner of experienced mariners, for
we are satisfied that they crowded heap
of adventures into their brief voyage.
! They admit that they tipped over once.
lost man overheard, who was finally
rescued, and ran into straw stack and
various other distractions on the journey.
The voyagers came back next day by
team. the wind being unfavorable for
their snow boat.
We append description of the Benson
boat, which recently vcyaged from Ben
son to Montevideo. by way of Appleton,
and returned. at the rate of about ten
miles an hour for most of the trip:
The machine has three runners like an
ice boat-two forward. one on each side.
and one in the centre behind, which is
turned by rudder in steering. The run
ners are of the Norwegian snow-shoe pat
| tern-wide, and calculate to run over the
lightest snow or highest drift, without
making more than an inch deep track i'm
preston. These runners are Joined firm
fy together in a triangular shape with 2x4
studding. About three feet from the
front of the boat frame, and directly in
the centre, the sail pole is firmly planted,
and heavy wires attached to the top of
the pole and securely fastend to the out
side of the boat-frame, adds the strength
which is required in the terrible dash
across the snow. A twelve yard SAIL used
in the same manner as on sail boat.
completes the acme of perfection in the
line of the fastest and most practical ma.
chine on record.
