"Ma," casually remarked Pinder the
other evening, as the two stood at the
front gate waiting for Fitzgoober to
come home, what relation is there be-
tween you and lane?"
"Me and a lane?" asked the lady, q
puzzled look crossing her face. "Why
do you ask such a question:"
well, nothing much" replied Pin
der, "only I heard pa talking to the
Widow Bileover about you"
what did they say? ?" demanded Mrs
Fitz, now quite interested.

Drive Wheel Flew to Pieces.

Bangor, June 14.-There was an ex-
plosion about 1.30 O'Clock this afternoon,
at the Dirigo mill of Brewer, owned and
operated by Hastings and Strickland. A
fireman had just completed oiling the en-
CINE, and left the engine room when the
large drive wheel of a $50 horse power
engine burst, demolishing the engine and
wrecking the engine room. No one was
injured. The loss of machinery and time
will amount to several thousand dollars.

THE DEAL TRADE.
Revival of a Once FIouris hing Bangor
Industry.

The revival this year, to some extent,
of Bangor export trade in spruce deals
to the United Kingdom, says the Bangor
News, has awakened great interest among
all classes in the foreign trade of the port,
and it has brought in the minds of ship
ping people and men who work along the
river memories of the days when Bangor
sent many millions of feet of this kind OF
lumber abroad, and when there was
rather more money in the business for all
concerned
Away back before the war Bangor had
a flourishing trade in all kinds of lumber
with ports in North and South America,
Europe and even Africa, and after the
war, along in the seventies, there was
revival of the traffic that brought here
some of the finest vessels ever built in
Maine, with. also, representatives OF the
then famous yards of Portsmouth and
East Boston, "s
For in those days the lumber was not
carried as it is today in British steamers,
but in the smart and handsome Yankee
sailing ships, that were the wonder of the
MOTlu dIlu bIG pIlOS AL Oil pau 4OulC
Americans.
1t was in 1874 that tho deal trade
reached its greatest Importance, twenty
cargoes being shipped in that year. The
business continued good for three years
after that, and in the four years named
there were shipped from Bangor sixty
seven cargoes. In 1878 and 1879 the trade
dwindled away to almost nothing and
from the latter year to 1886 nothing was
done. In 1896 one or two carg oes and
parts of cargoes We're sent abroad, and
now in 1897, the shipments will not be
less, probably than 10, 200, 900 feet, possibly
20, 600, 900.
Probably the finest fleet of American,
or any other. sailing ships ever gathered
together in the port of Bangor was at
High Head in 1877. In that year there
were to be seen at the Head such vessels
as the Belle of Bath, new ship just
launched; the William II. Connor, a new
Searsport ship; the L. j. Morse, then
new, she being the last ship built at this
port; the famous old ship Martha Cobb Of
Rockland, the bark Forest Belle, just
then launched at Bath and hailing from
Portland, Ore, and lot of others, whose
names will appear in the appended list
Many of these fine vessels are now
dead" as the sailors say of lost vessels
and such have been the changes of the
tides of commerce and the fortunes Of the
American merchant marine that we prob.
ably never again shall see such splen-
did sea congress gathered at the Head.
The price of lumber was higher in those
days than now, although in the best year
of all it was not very high-S12.5 So per Nj
being the quotation on one cargo shipped
in 1874. Now they are selling deals at
about So so. 1t took a long time and a
lot of work to load the old sailing fleet,
and such stevedores as James Conroy,
Ned Seaman, John G. Reilly, Bed Day
and Bob Cassidy made good money in the
business. Nowadays, the lumber is
tossed into the steamers at a surprising
rate with the help of steam winches, and
everything is different-there is not near
~ so much money in the deal ships for
anybody.
