BOATING BRIEFS
BOAT SPEEDMETER.

Everybody who moves wants to
know how fast he is going. There's
deal of satisfaction in sitting in
an automobile or power boat and
saying: well, we're moving at
the rate of so many miles per hour"
Also it is well to know how far one
has gone. The Nicholas Ship Log
company, Cleveland, Ohio, has
taken heed of this natural desire
and has constructed instruments
to record speed and distances.

The State OF West Virginia to-day

to be in very serious condition. de-
spite the encouraging reports of his
convalescence
Senator SCOTS condition shows
some improvement to-day. In his case
there Is no Immediate danger, but
the possibility Of complications causes
apprehension. 1t IL not likely that he
will be able to attend the opening ses-
sion of Congress.
In Senator Eikins' case the reports
are conflicting. His physicians say Of
ficially that he IL improving. but 9TH
ers in a position to know Of the SEN

mistic view. They sa ythat improve

out by the fact that protrncted con-
