Boating on the White.

1t Is an open secret on the local
"Rialto" that Messrs. r. Hartke,
Mike O'Connell, Jim Riland, of the
Review, and others, are building a
staunch boat to be used in navigating
the turbulent waters Of the White,
and that all will be ready for the trial
trip in day or two.
Now, THE HERALD has had its Be-
cret emmissaries out watching this
boat building matter for some weeks
and we are fully advised in the prem
ises, and In addition to our old
reliable grapevine" telegraph -
longest In the world-have erected
wireless stations up and down the
river, and are therefore in a position
to give our thousands of readers full
particulars of the maiden trip of 1.-THE
Calamity Jane" which is to be the
name of the rakish craft, under COM
mand of Commodore Hartke. So
our "hated" rival at the other end of
the park needn't be figuring on a
journalistic scoop" in the marine
line. Well be "Johnny-on-the-spot"
with a full corps of lynx-eyed re-
porters to chronicle the "haps and
mishaps" of the Calamity Jane"
In the meantime, we would advise
Commodore Hartke to procure the
services of a good pilot, as we have
in mind the narrowing disaster which
befell our old friend Commodore
Harry Miner and his chief of staff,
DIR. Thornton, when their good boat,
''The Liza Jane" came to grief at
Shotgun bend in the fall of 'S6. Keep
the lookout man constantly on duty,
''heave the lead" on the slightest
provocation and keep the switzer and
Temps best in a cool place.
