This celebrated yacht has been speeding
through the press for the past two years at q
rate Of anywhere between thirty and forty
miles an hour In fact. Brooklyn paper on
May 20 last reported this wonderful yacht as
carrying our President through the waters Of
the Potomac at the rate Of thirty-6ve miles an
