L,sns6e77nen's Excursion.

LNNt5e73le1l'S Excursion.
The lumbermen's excursion Sunday on
the Penn Wright to the Falls, for the pur-
pose of examining the condition o. the
booms, sloughs, etc., along the river, and
what repairs, if any, We're needed, left the
lower levee at 9 O'Clock NJ. The trip proved
an enjoyable one to those who participated.
The beautiful scenery along the st. Croix
appeared to the best of advantage, and was
thoroughly appreciated by all. The number
of excursionists was small, owing to the in
fuence of the unpleasant weather. The trip
to the Falls was made in five hours, the
number of logs running retarding the
speed of the boat. The two hours allowed
to visit the places of interest at the Falls
were employed to advantage.
Above Taylors Falls were found Tom
Dunn's Jibbenazie drive of 100000 feet;
Jackman & Pleas Clam river drive; Ed. St.
Johns Lower Snake drive; and VIM. Perkins
Sand Creek drive. It will take these drives
at least two or three days to clear the
Falls. The logs now running into the
boom are principally from Lower Snake,
Moose, Sand Greek, Jibbenazie and Kettle
rivers. There is now in the boom d jam of
ming in freely. Pages slough is fQll of
logs.
IMPROVEMENTS NEEDED.
East Cedar Bend slough is full of logs,
and quite number on the island, which
should be taken off. There are also large
amount on the shore at the old mill which
should be sacked off. There should be a
number of spiles driven at the boom above
Arcola, to keep the logs from running into
Rice lake and on to the low grounds at the
mouth of Apple river.
The boom on the west bank above Marine
and the boom at Silver creek need repairing.
A number of spiles should be driven at
the head of East slough to prevent logs run
ming in there. The logs now in the slough
should be taken out before the water falls.
The boom at the piling at Congloneraticn
Rock is gone, and should be replaced.
A lot of logs on the Wisconsin shore above
Osceola should be taken off.
These repairs are necessary, and should be
attended to immediately.
The St. Croix, it is thought, is in fair
way for driving the logs to the boom.
