A pleasure craft with all the capacity and convenience of a small steam-yacht with upper and lower decks, cabin, kitchen, lockers, and library, but equipped with wheels for land-voyaging instead of with a smooth hull and keel for gliding through the' water —seems to be the newest thing in United States transportation. With, all that it holds, such a vehicle weighs no more than the average automobile omnibus, and can go safety -wherever such a 'hus can be steered. The pioneer example of this "land yacht" type is now on its way from New York to San Francisco, where in the Tich soil of the Illinois prairies, or wrecked in some 1 canon while crossing the Rockies or the Sierras. The vehicle is owned by its designer, Roland R. Conklin. I ELECT your Pri 1 Saturday. CAMPEN. 93 Hardy street. A f\ 50 CADILLAC, 8-seater Motor _bvJ~ Car for Hire; any time or distance.—E.
