Now a Motor to Run Boats Hawley Proposes Erie Canal Cableway
Frank W. Hawley of Pittsford WN 4 Y vice president of Catsract General Electric discusses electrified boat propulsion using a canal cableway system. The plan employs hollow steel poles, dual cables, and a motor car to move boats along banks with no bank damage and lower costs. Electricity from Niagara Falls would power canal traffic, potentially linking Lake Erie and Lake Michigan and transforming transport and industry nationwide.

Edgemere page fragment hints at civic action and names

Spider Crabs at New York Aquarium Decorate for Protection
At the New York Aquarium a new eight spider crab decorates its back with bright marine plants snipped with its claws. The crab uses the adornments for camouflage as it moves and weighs down its body with gravel to stay anchored. The tank flow and currents influenced the crabs as they gathered stones for their shells. Elsewhere, the steamship Portia was wrecked near Alaska after a sudden fall tide, sinking on a jagged rock ridge and forcing abandonment despite most cargo being saved.
