DICKINSON DRUG CO.. ,.i"% MAIN STREET |GOHEN, NELSON CO. HAVE MANY PLANS May Try Aero-Jitney Business, Sponge Fishing and Salvage Aaron G. Cohen and Nels J. Nelson ve made all preparations to leave 6 city for Daytona, Florida, on | Monday or Tuesday of next week. At the famous southern beach they will engage in the aero-jitney business and expect to have the patronage of a number of prominent New Britain people, wWho are planning to visit the resort during the winter months. { The local men already have a hy- | dro-aeroplane which is at present at | their Church street storehouse- This i will be shipped early next week to- gether with a land aeroplane. The hydro-aeroplane which the two men have is equipped with an eightq horse- power Curtis engine and will carry two pasengers. The aero-jitney is the lat- est craze at Doytona and there are al- ready several aeroplane men who are taking passengers out over the sea for short trips, Mr. Nelson txpects to give some exhibition land flights also. If business warrants it at the south- ern resort Mr. Nelson and Mr. Cohen will construct a new hydroplane in the south. It will be made of mahog- any, which for its relative size is the strongest wood obtainable- It will be huilt large enough to accommodate ten people and will be equipped with a 150 H P. motor. While in the south Mr. Cohen will take a side trip to Key West, Fla. where he will study the spone fishing industry. At present sponges cannot be obtained in water deeper than fifty feet on account of the sharks. Still enthusiastic about their submarine diver, Mr. Cohen and Mr. Nelson ex- pect to make an effort to utilize it in this industry. May Try Salvage Game, On his return to the north Mr. Co- hen plans to look over the location of several valuable wrecks with a pos- sible view of attempting to salvage them in the future. One particular wreck which will be investigated is that of the S. S. Merida. This vessel, heavily laden with silver ore and bound from Vera Cruz for New York, was sunk several years ago off Cape Henry, near Hampton Roads. Henry Lee, business manager of the New Britain Herald, was a passenger on this ill-fated vessel and vividly re- calls the disaster, - The ship was about six hours out from New York and was steaming along in the open, with a heavy fog bank rolling out from the coast, Suddenly the lookout shouted an order to ‘‘port the helm The United Fruit Steamer Admiral Far- ragut had suddenly loomed into sight. By a trick of fate the lookout on the fruiter gave the same order and the Admiral Farragut struck the Merida amidships and she sank in five hours. All the passengers and Crew were res- cued in life boats but the cargo and personal property on board were lost. Only One “BROMU QUININE" cail for full name, INE.
