THAT NEW BOAT
Which Is to be Built for the Kennebct
Steamboat Co.

For several years it has been re-
ported that the Kennebcc Steamboat
Co. was to build OF purchase q pro-
pellor steamerhut each year it has been
a report only.
President James j. Drake tells the
Enterprise hat it has finally been de-
cided to build at once the fastest and
finest equipped steamer on the coast,
She viii be built of wood and work
upon her will begin at nee.
She will be 200 feet long. "a feet wide
and II feet deep. She will be a pro-
peller craft and have about 200 state
rooms.
She will be modern in every respect
and will be heated by steam. lighted
by electricity and have q full system
of electric bells. She must be ready for
service early next spring. This has
been fully decided upon.
h may run directly from Boston
to Boothbay during the ummer
months and from Boston to Bath in
the winter.-Bath Enterprise.

~anternari which we have found have
been more thai so millimetrcsin length
/ and we are still doubtful whether s,,oh
individuals have reaehed their f,ll
growth and size. 1T is this singular
little fish which constructs the singular
nestp of gulfweed, bound in a bundle
| With cords of viscid secretion. which we
have mentioned as abundant in the
Faith of the Gulf Stream. Scilloee
re!agic, one of the shell-Iess mollusco
is also a frequent ~inhabitant of the
gulfweed. A little short-tailed crab
tNautilarius minutus) swarms on the
weed and every floating object, and il
is odd to see how the little creature
corresponds in color with whatever it
may happen to inhabit.
The gulfWeed animals. fishes, moi
lusks and crabs do not simply initiate
Colofs Of the weed. to do so would be
to produce suspicious patches of con
tinuous olive. They are all blotched
over with PAD white, the hlotches
sometimes irregular, but at a little dis
tance absolutely indistinguishable from
the patches Of membraipora on the
weed. Mr.. Murray. who superintendent
L surface work, brings in curious
stories Of the little crabs. lie observes
that while everything noatinS
on the surface is covered
with them. they are rarely met
swimming free. and that whenever
they are d~islodged and removed a little
way from their resting place they i'm
mediately make vigorous efforts TO re-
gain it. The other day he amused him
self teasing a crab which has estab-
liShed itself on the crest of physalia.
Again and again he had picked it off
and put it on the surface at some dis
lance away. but it always turned at
cnce TO the physalia, struck out. and
never rested until ii had climbed up in
to its former quarters"
II is probable that the Sargasso sea
will remain in it's present locality for
all time to come, or at least until the
winds and ocean currents shall have
changed their course. That a more
thorough investigation into its botany
and zoology has not been made is
somewhat strange in view of the many
peculiarities existing there. Some day
a special expedition may be made and
q more exact and scientific knowledge
obtained San Francisco Bulletin.

The girls, in their long gowns Of gold
threaded silk, with bright handkerchicfs
on their heads the long plaits of black
hair falling over their shoulders and down
their backs, their nccSs and forehoads
hung with coins and ornaments, were
scarcely more brilliant than tho men, who,
with loose, baggy white trousers and coats
Of brilliantly striped silks, with their
Jackets of white felt and gorgeous silk
turbans and peaked caps, their skillfully
wound sashes OF many oolors and their
embroidered shoes, we're pictures of ori-
entail dandyisin. How thoy all laughed
and shouted as they danced to the music
of the pipes and drums I'm the bright after
noon sunlight Magazine.
