marine railway Tuesday the three-masted
schooner Theoline The keel was laid and
the vessel built on the railway. The nten-
ton was to use the railway at a season

ceiving lumber kept the work along until
the rush of repairing was over for the sea-
son. The vessel is very thoroughly built.

stays enough to make the masts safe for
launching. She went off without incident
or accident, the process being the same as
the launching of a vessel which has been
hauled out on the railway for repairs. The

docked the schooner at Pendleton & Co.'S
wharf, without anchoring.

with merry jokes, singing and merry
laughter. After refreshing themselves
and also receiving trophies for the
coming High School museum, they
started for home. Arriving In town in
good time and being determined on
having a full day, they decided to call
on mine host and hostess on the Short
ranch. Then they made call at the
Monte ranch thinking of those water
melons.
Among the days doings was a vot7

the contest was lively one the Nc

to spare to friends, but had they seen

would have thought they had some

mouths. ..
Their driver was very careful and
capable and no accidents occurred,
