The Water Bicycle.

Thursday, Mr. Lamson's new water bicycle
was exhibited at the Union Rowing Associa-
TONS boat house. Wallace Ross, the oars
man, went out in the harbor on it, and was
much pleased with its working. The boat is
built like catamaran, and is 20 feet long. The
two boats are about two feet apart, and are
held together by four bars. Raised about three
feet from the water, and between the boats
sits the rider, upon bicycle, which is worked
the same as bicycle upon land. Attached to
the pedals, and worked by cogs and shaft, Is
the screw propeller, which is made of sheet
brass. The propeller has but two fans. The
driver steers the craft with the bar in front of
the bicycle. When there is wind the pro-
peller can be lifted up out of the water, and a
mast stepped in the place provided for it, in
tho center, between the two boats, and the sail
is managed without the driver leaving his

The Peaks Island Shooting Club met Fast
Day for their regular Fast Day shoot at glass
balls for the club championship badge. Sides
were chosen by Henry e. 81. Bracket and
Elias P. Holbrook, Jr.; the side of Bracket
was one ball better than Holbrook's, breaking
159 to the other sides 1853. There were seven
men on each side, shooting at 30 balls each, a
very fair score for men who have not shot
since Christmas. A. G. Sterling and III. A
Jones tied on 81 each for the badge; tie was
not shot off. In the afternoon the contestants
INDUCED in an old-fashioned game of ball; at
o'clock the Club and their friends met at the
Bay View House for an oyster supper given to
the winning team at glass balls by Holbrook' .
side, after which all adjourned to Island Hall
where they "tripped the light fantastic" till a
late hour.
