PROSPECTS OF PLENTY OF WATER.
Logging Situation According to Lumbcrmal
Recently Returned from the Woods.

w. j. Lanigan, who has charge OF
the logging for the Hollingsworth 4
Whitney Co. was in Augusta, Friday
on business with Elias Mllken. Esq
and on various other matters.
Mr.. Lanigan has recently returned
from the Moosehead lake section, and
his reports of the years prospects fol
log driving are most encouraging.
There is going to be plenty of waite,
said to Journal reporter. Friday. il
answer to inquiries. "And. from the
present condition of affairs. think it is
perfectly safe to prophesy that there
will be no logs left in the yards. as the
work there is nearly completed. with
plenty of snow still left. In fact, il
doubtless is matter of regret to Ahe
lumbermen generally that they did not
enter into the season with more conf
dence. The light SHOWS during the first
and middle of the winter was very dis
couraging. and shortage of cuts all
around was the natural consequence. -
What will the average shortage be
from last years CUT" was asked.
About 10 per cent. should say that
there was certainly no more than that. -
AS for the water Mr.. Lanigan con-
tinued. There will Undoubtedly be
plenty, as Moosehead lake is now SO
full that it has been necessary to raise
two or three of the gates to prevent
overlooking along the shores. The low
lands and ponds are we'll stocked, and
there is still some three feet of solid
snow on the ground which will be con-
verted into much water. The small
brooks and rivers are in good condition
and when the work begins of floating
the logs down to the main rivers. |
think, there viii be an abundance of
water
What time will that be, from the
present outlook?"
From the 10Th to the last Of the pre-
sent month. About as soon as the ice
breaks up
''As to the supply there will be none
too many logs on the market. and the
mills are making good hustle for ma
terial for cutting. The prices will be
high in all probability; but will depend,
as usual, on the New York and Boston
markets

A DISASTROUS STORM.
Heavy Snow CrippIes Telephone Service and
Damages Trees-Bad Walking.

Augusta felt herself almost isolated,
Friday morning, when she arose to be-
come aware of the fact that her tele-
phon service was badly crippled. but
the central Office on account of the
wires being broken by the weight of
the snow.
Years have passed since so disas-
rous snow storm as visited this sec
ton, Thursday night, has been known
hereabouts, and there was no end of
trouble on all sides.
The walking was deplorably bad. but
this was an easily surmounted obstacle.
as bad walking is pretty much to be
expected.
The loss to the telephone company will
be considerable, as after the storm had
passed there were only Is connections
which could be made about the city,
and none with any of the other cities.
Manager O'Brien was out early with a
crew of men fixing the wires about
town as fast as possible. 1t was a
great day for linemen, and the morning
brought in many who were looking for
job
The snow was of the unusually tena-
cious variety having been very wet when
it fell, and on freezing it became stiff
and hard to shake off. Much atten-
ton was given to it, as it was naturally
necessary to to relieve the weights i'm
posed as soon as possible.
Walking about the streets was inter-
esting work, in the morning, as
punches of snow We're falling on all
sides, from the wires about enough to
fill ones neck; while from the build
ings there were snowslides without
number Many of the citizens had
their roofs shovelled off, to prevent
trouble both from snow slides and
leakage.
The trees were a beautiful sight, dur
ing the greater part of the day. The
air being cold and still, the boughs re-
tanned their vesture for many hours.

generally used by the officials and all

w. w Stetson, State superintendent
of schools, returned, Thursday night
from a visit to the Madawaska Train
ing school. He reports that that insti-
tuition is in most flourishing condi-
ton and doing great good in the edu-
cational line. The annual report of 1898
of the superintendent will be soon be
ready for publication.
Hon. S. w. Matthews, State labor
commissioner, returned. Friday. from
his home at Caribou. He there at
tended the annual town meeting. and
was appointed moderator of the meet
ing. He found on the desk Il dainty
little gavel, which he naturally used
for the purposes for which it was in
tended. and, quite as naturally left il
where he found it. when the meeting
had adjourned. He was soon assured
by his friends that the gavel was for
him, for keeps" He has it in his desk
at the State House. and says he highly
prizes it.
The officials at the State House felt
with some force. the deprivation of
their telephone, on account of the
storm. They realize that they never
really know how badly they need
thing until they have to get along
without it.
The following corporations filed their
papers at the secretary of States
