Sea Yachts.

Yacht building has become an indus
try of rapidly growing Importance in
st. Louis and other large cities of the
central west, where the element of
cheapness in lumber, other things be-
ing equal, makes it possible to. turn
out substantial boats at figures which
would be ruinous to an eastern yacht
builder. Frederick Wood OF. Provi-
dence, owner of the Arrow, has ordered
forty six-footer from a st. Louis
builder, which will be shipped east in
sections and finished at Pawtuxet by
Capt. H A. Randall The frame will
be built in the st. Louis shop, then
taken apart and the sections so marked
that there will be little difficulty in
putting the boat together upon its ar
rival at the eastern shipyard. 1t is
said that the saving in expense is so
great that other Providence yachtsmen
will follow Mr.. Woods example.

Most Wonderful Of An.

The broomstick train, as DR.. Holmes
called it, the electric car operated by
the overhead trolley system, had just
been introduced to Aberdeen, when
two farm servants came to the Scottish
city to spend holiday. They made
their way at once to the terminus of
the street railway, and looked with
much wonder at the new creation. FL
nally they resolved to have ride. At
the end of the ride one of them ex-
pressed their united opinion. "Wull,'
he said, this is graun' invention. In
Edinburgh saw them drive the cars
