FELLING TRERs BY STEAM
The Invention of an Englishman.
Which Is Finding Favor Abroad.


England comes to the front with a new
invention .of value. \ Chelsea manu-
tacturer has brought out an improved
form of steam tree telling and crosscut-
ting machine. The Duluth Nel9S saws
that since the original patent was taken
out for these machines a number have
been sent to all parts of the world, They
are mounted upon strong axle, sup
ported on pair OF wheels OF such a
diameter as to enable the saw to cut
through the tree at the hight of about
three feet from the ground. This skele-
ton carriage is fitted with a pair OF shafts,
which renders it readily transportable
through the forest. After the tree is
felled the entire machine can be partially
rotated upon its axis SO that by simply
turning hand wheel The saw can be
angle between the horizontal and vertical
position. 1t generally happens, when
a large tree falls, that il does not lie flat,
as its branches ho-d the upper part Of the
trunk off the ground, and so, in order to
crosscut trees lying i'll such positions, it
IS necessary TO incline the saw somewhat
from direct vertical line which is read
lily done by the adjustment. Again, in
order to crosscut through high-lying
trunk, il is necessary to elevate the saw
or, on the other hand, in the case OF a
low-lying log, to depress it. TO effect
this slotted stays are attached to each
shaft, being pivoted to short stakes
driven III the ground. A strong bolt
passing through the shaft takes into the
Slot in each stay, 20 which it can be
instantly set fast by means OF a
nut furnished with handle, and
thus, by raising or depressing the
shafts. the saw can be set at the
required elevation to suit logs
lying in any position. The machine, as
originally constructed, would fell an oak
tree ten feet n girth in three or four min
utes and crosseut it afterward in about
two minutes, but it is expected that in its
improved form even quicker work is pos
sible

voting by Electricity.

Japan is making rapid progress in vari-
Gus lines, and the natural ingenuity Of
the people is making itself felt even in the
electric field. n Japanese has invented
an electrical device for recording the votes
cast by the members of the native Parlia-
ment. Each member has push button
and wire locked with his own key. An
electric current releases a red ball, ac-
cording to contact, in two directions, and
when the names are noted the balls are
ran into rows of ten and counted up. by
an ingenious electrical device the balls
are then sent back to their places.

THEY CAME FOR OUR SCALP AND
GOT 1T.

Shreveport Wasn't In It With Camden.
We are sorry to have to state it, but
it is fact, that our home team was
gobbled mp and swallowed without
seasoning by Camden. The visiting
nine greatly excelled our boys in bat
ting, base running and fielding, being
far superior in the two latter very
necessary adiuncts to successful base
ball playing.
Our team was strengthened some Sat
urday by putting Baldwin i'll left and
Foster III center fields, but even then
we could not compare with our oppo-
nents.
OF course the reason of our infe-
rior' playing is the lack of practice
which cannot now be remedied. In
fact the season began with us in late
playing time when, as matter Of
fact, practice should have begun in
April or May. We have already
stated how Shreveport came to be
playing ball this season and it need
not be repeated here.
For the coming season, if present
intentions and purposes are carried
out, we will have a splendid team, be
cause an association will be formed
now in a short while, and ample pre-
parations will be made for good
nine or two of them from which to
select one excellent team.
But we are off the subject; Camden
came here with the declaration
"Shreveports scalp or bust" aud as
she didn't bust of course she took
our scalp. Camden won all three
games. not allowing our boys to get
one, or at least they seemed unable
to do so, although they had it in their
power more than once.
But nil desperandum has ever been
the motto of Shreveport and her team
will give Camden another trial Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday next
and we predict that they will make a
much better showing then.
McGinnis' departure weakened our
team considerably, but Pender will |
try to interest them in his stead

This will be one of the hardest fought

A friend asked us what we thought
about the prospects of our coming fail
being a success, we replied that we
bad watched the progress very closely
since. the meeting held at the Board
of Trade by the citizens for the pur-
pose of determining whether we
should tsy, in view of the many OBJ
staclcs in the way, to hold our annual
faiK From that time it was assured
that fair would be held and the exc
cutive committee was elected and
Secretary Horan was named to take
the matter in hand. We have been
confident that this would be sue
cess.
Don't you think the stringency of
the times will affect it? No doubt it
has TO some extent, yet that is all
being overcome by increased energy
put forth by the committee and sec
retary. Everything has been moving
ON so nicely, and everything necessa-
ry up to date has been done, not the
slightest detail being omitted, having
arranged every thing for proper ex-
hibit, classification and premiums fix
ed. With the different departments
all under excellent management moth
ing can hinder it being a success.
Then there is another feature that
is calculated to attract the masses
who attend the Fair, Secretary Ho-
ran tells us that our speed ring and
racing is going to be excellent. This
will be worth going long way to see
Some of the best racers and trotters
known to the turf aud speed ring will
be here, and rare sport in this de-
partment is in store for us.
Another feature that always at
tracts will be the curiosities in the
way side exhibits. These may cost
you few extra nickles, but you will
be more than repaid 1t will take us
too long to tell you Of the many
things that go to make up grand
fair, all of which we will have at the
coming October November exhibi-
tiop.
