THE HOUSEBOAT
SOLD BY AUCTION

The houseboat built for the Y. M.
@. A. swimming class was sold at pub
lie sale at the water works Saturday
afternoon, the purchaser being W. V.
Oglesby, Esq.
The house boat was built couple of
years ago and it was thought that it
would prove great convenience to the
swimming class, the intention origin
ally being to take it away from town
to some spot along the river where all
the conditions were favorable for good
bathing and there anchor it to be used
as shelter and place for dressing.
The plan did not seem to work out
rightly. For year or more past the
boat house has lain along the river
just below the water works, where it
has been used indiscriminately by boys
swimming.
1t is claimed that no just apprecia-
tion of the house boat has been shown
by those who use it; that ON the con-
trary it has been very much abused ;
also that it has been impossible to get
any one to assist in securing the boat
when winter arrives or when floods
occur in summer. On several occasions
it has been saved by the employees mt
the water works. 1t would have been
carried off by the ice Friday night had
not Henry Jones arrived on the spot
in the nick of time and towed it into
shore.
These facts were adverted to by W.
V. Oglesby preceding the sale on Sat
urday. The main reason adduced foI
selling the houseboat is the fact that
of the money which Mr.. Oglesby ad-
vanced for building the boat some tif-
teen dollars still remains unpaid him.
With no one personally responsible fol
the boat the chances We're considered
slim that it would survive the winter
and it was, therefore, decided to sell
it. 1t was put up at auction so that
all would have an equal chance to OBJ
tain the boat, if they cared to posses:
it.
The sale took place ? at o'clock,
Some twenty persons were present in
culding the proprietors of the seyera
coal dredges, who might have use fol
craft of that kind. Constable W. f.
Young was auctioneer. Bidding wa'
slow and the boat was knocked down
to W. V. Oglesby for ten dollars.
Mr.. Oglesby announces that if any
one will reimburse him for what
he advanced he will relinquish claim
to the house boat, provided that it be
used for the purpose for which it wa:
originally intended-as IA boat for the
swimming class of the Y. NJ. @. A.
