LEARY HAS A RIVAL.
They Are Rafting Logs In a New
Way on the Pacific.

SAN FRANCISCO. September pa curios-
ity that is attracting the close attention of
nautical men at present is huge raft of logs
brought down by the steamer Noyo from
Noyo. The Noyo arrived here in command
of Capt. Drisk from Noyo. and having in tow
no less than 100000 feet of lumber. The
enormous size of this raft can be judged
when it would take at least eight schooners,
carrying 10000 feet each, to bring this load
in the ordinary manner. This raft is built
on patent owned by the Fort Bragg Red
wood Company and Noyo Lumber Company,
and was used for the first time on this occa-
sion.
Unlike the famous Joggins raft, these logs
are not strapped together. They are con-
tanned within huge boom made of number
of smaller booms Of peculiar construction.
Each boom is 80 feet long, and composed of
seven pieces of timber Four of these are 12
inches square and bolted at the ends to four
foot pieces 16 inches square and projecting
sufficiently to allow of the attachment of a
cable by which the booms are Joined. These
booms are joined and so arranged as to form
a pear-shaped figure, into which are placed
the logs, all loose. The whole is towed by
2000-foot tow line. On the passage down not
a single log was lost. Average trips are
made in two days. while the Noyo was only
four daYS.
