The 111mbermen on the Susoueha1

The 1umbermen on the Susquehanns
above Wi1liamsport have adopted a
novel method to get their stranded logs
to the sawmi11. They build temporary
dams at convenient places, which backs
the water up high enough to float the
stranded timber, and the pent-up waser
being suddenly released the logs are
carried down into the current. This
manner of making artificial freshets is
new in that region. They relieve the
lumbermen of great expense in getting
the logs to market and keep the saw
mills active throughout the upper Sus-
quehanna.

dispensed with, but Judge Emery was
on the bench at the usual hour in the

who had been gathered in by the police
drag net on Christmas eve chance to
spend their Christmas with their friends,
if they had any, and if not, to see that
they were given good dinner at the
workhouse. Twelve prisoners graced
the bull pen when the judge took his
seat upon the bench. Mary Dunn, who
is better known to every policeman in
Minneapolis as Mother Griffin, was
there again on the oft-repeated charge
of being drunk. At one time Mary was
reputed to be well off in this worlds
goods. but her appetite for liquor has of
late been beyond her control, and
for the past few years most of
her time has been spent behind the
bars. Mary commenced celebrating
Christmas early on Tuesday night, but
unfortunately for her she attracted the
attention of Officer CALVIN and finished
tile night in the central station. Judge
Emery gave her the choice of paying a
fine of 500 or of going to the work.

and the wagon went up early, taking
her along.

cradle more time than money, they will

trict station house and Police Surgeon
Matchan was sewing up an ugly wound
in his left temple. The police allege
that Charles had used knife. Both
men were charged with disorderly con-
duct, but they were allowed to go after
