STARTS ON HOUSEBOAT TRIP.

Ed Southwick has completed the building and equipment of his house boat, and last week started on his trip down the Tippecanoe and .Wabash rivers, expecting to pass on down the Ohio and Mississippi during the fall and winter. Ihe month of June, however, will be spent on the Tippecanoe, a good portion of the time near Pretty Prairie, just north of Battleground, near where his wife lived when a girl. The boat is 28 feet long and 10 wide and furnishes very comfortable accommodations for eight or ten people.—White County Democrat.
