The ice boat shown in this sketch
runs directly before the wind, with a

A three-cornered sail may be used,
but It Is harder to manage. The
frame work OF the craft consists of
two two-inch planks, which are laid
across each other az In Fig. 2. Fig.
shows the under part Of the top plank
at the rear end Note how the planks
are jointed and bracked with wire.

The mast Is three inches In diameter
by six feet long. The sail Is six feet
by four feet. The mast Is braced by
running two stout wires from the top
to the cross plank. The sail Is con.
trolled by a wooden handle bar. For

MUST BE POLITE TO POLICE
Visitor to Montevideo Finds II Neces
sary to Take Of His Hat When
Addressing PatroIman.

The policemen of Montevideo are
mostly of Indian origin They are al
ways courteous and polite, but they
are great sticklers for etiquette.
Through ignorance of their customs,
foreigner sometimes finds himself
In an embarrassing situation.
One day last summer a welldressed
American stepped up to policemen
in the Plaza Independcia and said In
very Good Spanish:
will you please tell me where the
Gala Rincon is?"
The policeman looked haughtily at
the stranger and turned away.
The American tried again with still
more courtesy:
Would you be so extremely kind
as to very accommodatingly tell me
where the Gala Rincon is?"
To his astonshment, the policeman
retorted:
You have no manners, SIR"
Needless to say, the American was
quite abashed, but he had to find the
Gala Rincon, so he put the question
TO a Spanish youth who was standing
near. The youth answered very cor
daily and went some little distance
to direct the stranger properly. After
the American had thanked him he
asked:
why did the policeman refuse to
answer me?"
Because" replied the youth, when
you addressed him you neglected to
take of your hat."-Youth's Compan.

Surprises come often when the wind
wagon performs. It has now been
equipped with runners and has been
driven at high speed over the snow
covered roads and the Ice OF the river

wind wagon is driven entirely by the
wind resistance created by the revolv-
ing propeller In the rear. The differ
entail is not connected with the drive

the sketch, and are shod with strap
iron. one inch wide and one-quarter-
inch thick. Round iron or half-round
iron should not be used, as these are
liable to skid The square, sharp
edges Of the strap iron prevent this
and grip the surface just as a skate.
The top is board six feet hong and
II inches thick, securely fastened to
the runners as follows: Blocks are
nailed, or bolted, on either side OF the
upper edge Of the rear runner and the
top is fastened to them with scNews.
The runner is also braced with strap
iron, as shown. The same method ap-
plies to the front runner. except that
only one pair Of blocks are used at the
center and thin piece OF wood fast
ened to their tops to serve as the NTH
wheel, writes Harry Hardy Of Whitby,
Ont, in the Popular Mechanics.
The hole for the steering post should
be six inches from the front end and
little larger In diameter than the
steering post. The latter should be
rounded where it passes through the
hole, but square on the upper end to
receive the steering bar, which must
be tightly fitted in place.
In coasting, the rider lies full length
on the board with his hands on the
steering bar. This makes the center
OF gravity so low that there is no ne
cessity for lateral steadying runners,
and aside from the exhilarating glide
OF the ordinary sled, the rider expert
ences a buoyant sense Of freedom and
zest peculiar to the monorail type.
Then, too, the steering is effected
much more easily. Instead OF drag

CHARGES ARE
BOILED DOWN
To ZOO WORDS

City Clerk Homer II. Edwards
this morning made up the synop-
sis of the charges against Conn
missioner A. U. Mills and Com
missioner Owen Woods for the re-
callers.
Each is boiled down to less than
200 words. With this synopsis
the petitions for recall will now
be printed and will be ready then
for the signatures of citizens who
think the city would be better off
with these men out of office.
1t will require 4,526 names OF
registered voters on a petition to
demand a recall election. No one
can be paid anything for circulat-
ing the petitions. II the names
are secured then the election must
be called and the question will be
simply, Shall Mills be recalled?"
Shall Woods be recalledf" IL
the people vote "yes." then the
officials are out, and the city
council will have to appoint new
men to take their places until the
next general election.

The Carriers, with their two
children, were rescued from the
Titanic two years ago. Carter es-
capped in the same boat with j.

of the White Star line.
For some years the Carriers
have maintained homes at Byrn

entertained lavishly and have
been prominent figures in many
notable social events.
Utmost secrecy attends every

grounds have not been made pub

ASKS THAT co.
KEEP STREET
IN REPAIRS
|" liz "I"

Charles B. Hurley thinks Com
missioner Woods Is letting the
Barber Asphalt company slip out
of a lot of hard work and ex-
pense the city is entitled to re-
ceive at the hands of the COM
pany. Hurley sent letter to
the council today complaining of
the condition of North Yakima
avenue from Division to Steele.
He says the Barber company is
obligated by contract to keep this
street in fine repair. But 1t is
going to pieces and nothing done.
But the city is paying for the re-
pairs anyway.
UNLESS repairs are made with
out delay, the property owners
will be called upon to resurface
the street, which would be en-
tirely due to the neglect of the
prpper officers of the city to en-
force the agreement with the Bar
Der people," says Hurley.
