a curious smoking pine tree on the
Vaughan estate in HallowelI, Me, is
again thd topic of discussion in that city.
\ gentleman the other day said that
the last time he saw it smoke was on
June 9th. The yapor comes fromthe ex-
IRENE top or apex and extends several
feet into the air, waving to and fro. The
column is about the diameter of a mans
arm, and sometimes divides into two
columns. Il SMOKES periodically and is
really a phenomenon.

WATER AND TRADE,
Both Bad for the MiIlers---FIour
Output Light.

The flour product last week was about
the same, being only few thousand
barrels in excess of the previous week.
There were made for the week los, 400
bbls-averaging 1907 bbls-against
100000 bbls the preceding week, and
10000 bbls for the corresponding time
in 1887. Two mills have dropped out of
the operative list as result of the in
creased shortage of water, thus cutting
off about 1900 barrels daily. This
leaves fourteen running, six of which
are using steam exclusively, while
seventh is employing water to drive
One-half of its machinery. The water
occasionally rises to fair stage, when
some of the mills standing in ldleneSs
for lack of it start up and run until
the head is drawn down again. This is
the cause of uneven and not very salts
factory work, and some millOwners
prefer to remain idle altogether rather
than to do it. The steam mills are kept
in operation at full capacity, though the
call for flour is less pressing than for
merly. Local mills are getting pretty
well caught up with orders, and their
managers feel more at ease as to being
able to please customers on shipments
than for long time. The -four market
is reported very dull, the current sales
of the mills in operation amounting to
less than their product. Buyers seem
to want cheaper prices, but the higher
cost of wheat precludes their being
granted, and SO the two sides are at

The board of supervisors of the poor
spent considerable time yesterday after
noon discussing the aid to be granted
certain of the city charges. The care of

a sewer explosion year ago, seemed
especially piteOus. He is helpless and
two members of his family are sick with
consumption, while the extent of the
aid the superintendent could grant was
IS per month for four persons. The
amount was finally increased to $12
month. A number of other cases of de-
serving poor were also disposed of.
