THE SAW MILL.

Ii was about four O'Clock of an
October evening. The autumn sun
light trickled soft and golden through
the branches of the FURNISHED trees and
touched into mellow glory the shall
low water of TeDsas bayou. For four or
five miles we drove along the wide,
white dusty road. On one side, we
saw always the narrow bayou and the
dense cypress forest; on the other
side we saw always the pillows
of the cotton plantations ripping to-
ward the dim horizon. A faint, dull
purplish mist softened the land
scape and seemed to muffle every
sound.
We felt as if we were looking at
some painted picture, when we looked
at the surrounding country-all was
so beautiful, so gorgeously colored, so
deathly still.
At last the silence was rent by the
shrillness of whistle, by the iron
changing CT machinery, and by the
ear-piercing siz, Sizing of saw. We
had reached the mill. There on the
margin of the woods it stands, sur
rounded by newly built cabins, as
august and all important as a fendel
lords castle surrounded by the homes
of his vassals.
The mill, lacking walls, is rather q
pavilion than a house. The space be-
meath the roof is long and narrow. ,On
the left hand side is furnace; large,
black, with six doors to it. The fire is
fed entirely by sawdust. The chin.
ney of the furnace is like the smoke
stack of steamboat.
One can see the process of saving
the lumbe from beginning to end.
The cypress trees are felled in the for
est, in which is situated the mill.
They are shorn of their limbs alM the
trunks are piled into an OK wagon.
Patiently the powerful teams bear them
to the dry bed of the bayou. Here,
one by one, they are thrown on the
ground. Each log is hauled up an in
cline plane, chains are thrown
around 1t, and is placed on trestle.
This then moves as like lightning, |
over little track, and each time |
the log is brought in contact with |
a large revolving saw. This saw
slices the solid wood with rs much |
ease and niceness as sharp knife |
cuts cake. The sawdust that flies like |
snow from the wood Immediately falls
into tunnel, and is carried to the fur
mace.
After the log has been separated, the

The Eads jetties, at the mouth of
the Mississippi river is beginning to
give the authorities trouble. You
may govern the channel by artificial
means for while, but in the long
run the grand old Mississippi will
have her way. Mr.. c. F. LOOMS of
New Orleans, while in Washington a
few days ago said to "Star" re-
porter: "Some of the best engi-
neers claim that the father of waters
has grown tired of the route he has
travelled for so many years and is
very likely to take short cut to the
ocean. OF these there are three,
one by the bayou Teche, another by
Lake Allemands and Salvador being
very much more direct and with a
better fall than the present course of
the river. Either route would leave
New Orleans from fifty TO one humid
red miles from the river, and the
prospects for the river breaking
through all bounds and changing its
channel in this way are growing
every year. The old time danger of
an inundation of New Orleans owing
to the city being on lower ground
than the river is not nearly so great
as that the river will desert it and
makcit an inland city"
