LABOR SAVING.
This Port--Five Men Do More Than 81
Did Before.

One of the greatest improvements ever
made in the handling of coal at this port
is the new system of cable cars and scoop
holster introduced by Randall &
McA lister Rt their wharf. The prin-
ciple of the mud digger has been applied
successfully to the taking of coal from
the barge. and depositing it where it
can be readily taken to the pockets. A
great scoop by its own weight and by a
mechanism which shuts its jaws, takes
up ton of coal from the barge and hoist
ing it aloft deposits it in large hopper.
Four times a minute does this great scoop
bear up its burden. From the hopper
cable cars take the coal to any desired
pocket, an automatic device dumping
the load in the right place without hu-
man Intervention. Powerful engines and
ingenious devices are required to do this
work; but much labor is saved. Former.
ly to unload barge of 1400 tons of coal,
two days and 81 men were required.
Now the same work is done by five men
in day and half.

Alleged Westbrook Forger Committed to
Jail.

James L. Lockhart was before. the
Westbrook Municipal court yesterday
for forgery. E. 81. Wilson appeared for

He waived the reading of the warrant
and was bound over in the sum of $500.
Not being able to secure bail he was COM
mitted. Lockhart ordered suit Of clothes
of Mr.. G. M. Waterhouse, for which he
was to pay $25, and they were to be done
October 81. On that day he put in an APP
pearance about four O'Clock in the after
noon and told Mr.. Warehouse that he
wanted the clothes very much, but had
nothing but check for $50, with which
to pay for them. He claimed that he had
left Bar Mills that day with this check
from his late employer and had expected
TO get the money when he got to Portland
out was too late as the bank was closed
when he arrived. Mr.. Waterhouse took
the check, let him have his clothes and
paid him 1925 in cash. When Mr.. Water
mouse presented the check at the bank he
found that 1t was worthless He then
went to looking up the man and found
that the man whose name appeared on
the bottom of the check had never given
MIR. Lockhart check for any amount.
Also learned that Mr.. Lookhart had
been married on the evening of October
26 and Immediately left on a short bridal
trip, but would return in a few days.
Mr.. Waterhouse put the officers of the law
on his track and Sunday morning he was

CARD BAGGAGE CHECKS.

Gard baggage checks are rapidly super
seding the bulky brass ones which have
been used so long by the railroads com.
panies. The Boston and Maine, Canadian
and Pacific and many Of the other big
roads are fast changing over. In the card
system brass check is attached to the
strap which is fastened to the baggage
and in the case is card on which is
written or printed a number together
with the destination from which 1t is
shipped. A perfect duplicate of this card
is given to the person checking the bag
gage, just the same as was done in the
case of the old brass check. The card Is
much more convenient to carry than a
brass check, and the system will probably
prove moro satisfactory.
