Channels boat can spin around like a top

JOSEPH PULITZER's BAR HARBOR HOME
one of the largest and most attractive at
Bar Harbor but Mr.. Pulitzer, immediate
ly upon acquiring title, contracted for rad
ical and extensive improvements to be
completed at the opening of the present
season. One of the most important of
these improvements was the construction
of huge stone tower, 80 feet high, for his
own use and that of his secretaries. The
lawn was extended 100 feet or more to-
ward the water on made ground, and an
enormous sea wall built to protect it, The
work was mainly done during the winter
and was an extremely difficult job. The
temperature averaged 20 degrees below
zero, and the great granite blocks had to
be warmed before they could be put in
place. During the construction there We're
two strikes and an accident in which one
man was killed, but despite all obstacles
the house was completed at the specified
time.
Chatwold is some distance south of the
Vanderbilt place, being the last of the cot
tages on the Schooner head road Direct

tance, with Thumb Cap, Il rocky island, in
the foreground. To the south is the open
Sctt' lHc cAlcuSlNe liWn stretches from
the piazza to the sea wall, and is shaded
with stately trees. The place affords
magnificent view.
A notable feature of the establishment
is the baths in the basement of the stone
tower. When the tide flows in. it fills
huge swimming tank, and the St water is
then warmed by steam Besides the
swimming tank, there are Turkish, Rus
sian and indeed every known kind of
baths, and in this respect it is the most re-
markable private house in America. The
house has IA complete steam plant and an
electric plant is to be installed. Mr.. Pu-
liter proposes making Chatwold his per
manent summer home.
Mr.. Pulitzcr's family consists of wife
and five children. a tutor and govcrncss
are employed for the children and Mr.
Pulitzer has with him half IA dozen secre-
taries He rides and drives good deal,
and has % horses, most of which he
brought from New York Among them
are four pairs of cobs, handsome and cost
ly, n thoroughbred English saddle horse

great variety of vehicles, ranging from
rubber tired victoras to buckboards Six
teen men are employed about the place, in

Inventor Channel Thinks That His Shin
Would RevOIutionize Naval Warfare.
A nautical architect who bears the very
appropriate name of Channel has invented
ship that he says will slip through the
water at the rate of - miles an hour ard
fly along over good, straight country road
at "A speed of 100 miles per hour. The san
guine inventors full name is b. +. Chan
mel, and he is a resident of Cambridgeport,
Mass. He was born in England 35 years
ago, but for some time has been resident
of this country. He has been engaged in
the shipbuilding business since early boy
hood and is confident that he is by no
means a novice in the construction of wa
ter craft. The model Of his wonderful
craft resembles "A side wheel steamship, the
wheels of which are immense and very
powerful. These wheels are to be p feet
in diameter, and their lower rims are even
with the keel OF the ship. They also pro-
ject so far from the vessel on each side that
Channel is confident they will steady it
and preserve its equilibrium no matter
what speed may be attained
The wheels Channel believes, will give
the ship its extraordinary speed They are
75 feet in circumference, are operated by
two engines propelling separate shafts and
may be made to reyolye 100 times min
