NOTES OF THE RIVER.

The speed of the launch, Gene Bris-
toll, owned at New Boston by Z. NJ.
Bristol and recently taken down the
river past here from Clinton, where it
was constructed last winter, has at
tractei considerable interest. 1t was
stated at the time of the trip that a
speed of 10 miles an hour was made
on the trip down. Now the owner in
a letter TO the Burlington Hawk-Eye
claims to have made the run from
Oquawka to Burlington with six PEG
pie. distance of Is miles, in 40 min
utes. The motor was not running at
full speed at that he says.
The steamer Sidney leaves st. Louis
on her first round trip of the season
May 4, and will arrive in Rock Island
May 6. The Diamond 10 line business
between st. Louis and St Paul will be
handled during May by the Sidney
alone. The steamer Dubuque is at
present operating in the packet service
between St. Louis and Burlington. and
will not be put in the through business
until later in the season.
The Eclipse and Columbia were in
port. The Isaac Staples. George s..
Mac Bedar. b Hershey and Phil
Scheckel went north.
