~fhihueiphla record.
AS soon as the Schuylkill fats above
the dam at NorristoWn are frozen over
again, there will be an ice boat race
between the Bridgeport ice craft, re-
Gently completed, and one now nearly
finished, and belonging to a Norris
town club. An ice boat is the fastest
sailing craft 10 the world, and, with a
favorable wind, can make better time
than the swiitest lightning express has
ever been known to make on the rails.
ice yachts are always triangular
in shape, which is the shape of the one
now awaiting cold weather at Bridge
port. Without the mast or sails it
presents very much the appearance of
a toothless farm harrow. From the
lbowsprit to the stern it is twelve feet
long and eight feet across the widest
part. Unlike an ordinary yacht, this
craft presents its broadcast side 70
the front. Beneath the triangular
frame are two steel runners, some
what larger than q skate runner,
with a very slightly convex sur.
face, so as to reduce the iric.
ton to the minimum. At the
stem there there is a runner different
from the other two, in that its surface
is sharp so as to stick in the ice, and
which serves as a rudder. Welded TO
the top OF this rudder is a small iron
rod about d foot high. This rod runs
through a round hole to the deck ofthe
yacht,and to the top OF it is fastened a
%tiller. Two ropes are tasted to this
yoke, which constitute the steering
apparatus of the craft. A mast is step
ped between the two stationary skates.
and a bowsprit shoots out out on a line
with it. A large lateen sail and a small
ilb-twenty yards Of canvas in all
comprise the rigging One man in the
stern TO work the tiller and another to
manage the sail, constitute the yachts
necessary crew. The Norristown Yacht
Club proposes to put thirty yards of
canvas on the boat. But" said the
captain Of the Bridgeport craft. "ifl
necessary we can shake out ten yards
more than that without danger" The
Bridgeport yacht was put on the ice
last Friday week, and worked SO well
that after a days overhauhng a race
was arranged for Sunday, which dem
Onstrated the boats splendid sailing
qualities The swiitest skater on the
upper Sthuylkill was given a fair
start in a two mile race. In order to
make the winning point the yacht was
compelled to make three taeks, and
really sailed four miles, but beat tue
skater fully half a mile. "At one
time says Captain Richardson, "the
yacht was making over thirty miles an
hour, and required a strong hand and
steady eye to guide her. The terrific
speed created a perfect gale, and the
crew were at one time in danger of
being swept from the deck. 1t is con-
fidently predicted that with a strong
beam, wind, and good management,
the yacht can make . mile a minute
When the Norristown rival comes
over the river thert will be fine snort

Abraham LincoIn's Hight.

Leonard w. Volk replies as follows
in the Century to the denial of his
statement 10 regard to Lincoln's hight:
| have read that communication in
the Century for October, aud can only
reiterate hal Abraham Lincoln was
iustsix feet one inch when | measured
him in April, 1860. AS before stated.
| placed him back against the studio
wall and made a mark over his head.
as | had done in Ease of Senator
Douglass two years before. | meas
ured IRON the floor up the mark
several times in order 10 be sure it
was right, desiring to know the exact
difference in the hight of these two
men, which was just twelve inches
| thought MIR. Lincoln fairly erect
when | marked the wall. Possibly
he might have stretched up an inch or
two higher, but at that date it is
hardly possible he could have expand
ed three inches in length. L am now
reminded of a story told me while al
Springfield, a few years since, OF Mr..
Lincoln sfaculty for stretching himself
out in length. | did MOI know OF t;is.
however, at the time measured ~,
or | should have requested him to I'vc
his fullest hight. The following is re
story:
A wager vas made one day in
Springfield between some friends of
Mr.. Lincoln and Of o. M. Hatch, the
late Secretary of the State of Illinois
Ia tall and slender MANI, as to Their
relative nights. Mr.. Hatch was first
placed against the wall so a mark
could be made over his head, Nj.
Lnncoln remarking at the time, Nov,
Hatch, stand fair" When the mara,
was duly made, Mr.. Lincoln was place
beside it, and at first Mr.. Hate 4
friends declared that they hadwOn E
wager. Wait" said Mr.. Lincoln,
THE mark is not yet made for me-"
Then he began to stretch himself out
like India rubber, aud went nearly
two inches above Mr.. Hatch's mark.
carrying off the stakes amid the shouts
and laughter of the bystandcrs.
In the model Of the statue | made
Of him in 1878 | represent him SIX
feet three and one half inches high,
which is over his real lie size.
Mr.. Lincoln looked taller than he
really was, owing to his thin, b9ny,
lank form.

Card to the Public.

Present unreasonable prices in the Sash &
Door Factories compel us to buy machinery
OF our own to protect us against loss on our
contracts; and while We are doing our own
work we will be prepared to furnish all those
wishing to build, all Of the material usually
found in such places, such as sash, doors,
blinds. mouldings, window frames, door
frames, and in fact everything necessary in
the finishing of a building. 1t is well known
fact that the present building boom in some
places has prompted the factory owners to
put prices where they are unreasonable and
oppressive. We do not propose to hide be-
hind these booming prices and tell you that
you cannot do any better. We propose TO
sell you goods for what it costs to manufac-
ture them here. We do not propose to buy
cedar ut from Sl2 to $50 per thousand and
ask you $75 for it. We will keep a full line
OF California goods on hand all the time.
