' We called in at the athletic club
building Monday to see how Capt,
Skinner was progressing with his
new boat, and find it to be already
assuming symmetrical proportions.
It is 55 feet in length and slightly
over 8 feet in breadth, and compe
tent authorities think it will not
carry over 10 inches of water.
The boat is to be called the "Inde
pendence," and the lovely silk
pennant will fly thio name from
the masthead of the vessel. It is
purported that the boat will make
the trip in about one and a quarter
hours.' Contrary to general under
standing Mr. Skinner does not se
cure one single cent as bonus, and
the building of the praft is simply a
business proposition. He has sold
a certain amount of tickets in ad
vance which he will redeem as soon
as tne ooat is running, ana tins is
the bonus the "liberal" citizens of
Salem are boasting far and wide
about. Mr. Skinner has operated
a boat between here and Salem pre
viously and made it pay, and there
is little reason to doubt but : what
the new proposition will be pav
ing one to him.
