Nine Miles in Seven Min
uteS Has Been Made.
Other Records.

The ice yachtsmen are busy now, and
the month OF February Is supposed 70
be the best for their sport. Although
the yachts race year after year, II Is
strange more records are not made. The
hest records were made more than
twenty-five years ago. The Yachting
says:
There is no doubt that the iceboat
Is the fastest thing that ever moved
with its feet on the ground Racing
with express trains on the Hudson river
is an everyday occurrence. and the
Poughkeepsie men do not esteem beat
ing che Empire state noteworthy. Pro
digious speed IS no recent development
in iceboating. In 1873 Zephyr. Phantom,
Comet. and Magic. OF the Poughkeepsie,
did ten miles IN as many. or better. IN
as few minutes, Three years later Luz
ellie and Snowflake, Of the same place,
made nine miles IN seven minutes. The
same year Commodore Hiram Fuller
drove Irene twenty miles in thirty min

apolls.
Remarkable Records.
ION The Shrewsbury, scud did a mile
and a quarter In f0Tty-eighT seconds. and
later covered hVe-eighJhs OF a mile in
quarter of a minute. which was at the
rate of $50 miles an hour. She was I'M
der full Roadway when she struck the
measurer stretch. The highest speed
Tor the distance had been two miles In
ninety seconds.
Small wonder that such a rate Is kept
up when one considers that there Is al
most no friction 10 overcome. AS an
Illustration OF this, DR.. Barron can, with
the pressure of one finger, keep his

A WONDERFUL CREATURE.

means she employs f. snowslocs
This, the simplest, most scientific and
best. Is the equipment of the snow
shoe rabbit, the wabasso of IIlawatha,
wonderful creature born of snow
drift crossed with little brown hare.
The moose is like II wadlng bird OF
the shore that has stills and can wade

Wabasso has another name, the vary
Ing hare. because 1t varies In color
with the season, and the seasons In all
Its proper country are of two colors,
brown for six months, white for six.
So all summer long, from mid-Aprll
to mld-Octobcr, the northern hare is
little brown rabbit.
Then comes the snowy cold. The
