Big Steamer from London.

The largest vessel of any class that ever
came to Bangor arrived June 9th and is
now at Ayers mills, South Brewer, where
she will take a cargo of deals for port
in the United Kingdom. The Jacob
Bright is a new vessel, having been built
at West Hartlepool, Eng, in 1896, by
Irvine & Co., and launched in December
OF that year. She is of about 1900 tons
gross, |, 734 tons net, and far exceeds in
capacity any other vessel steam or sail,
that ever came here. She has had 2, $780,
900 feet of hard pine under her matches,
and should carry over 5000, 600 feet of
spruce deals. In the old days cargo of
ZOO, 600 feet was considered large, and
the ship Conqueror of Boston, which
loaded at Bangor in 1874 and was called
big ship, took only 1850, 900 feet. The
Jacob Bright is one of fleet owned by
William J. Bright of Manchester, Eng,
and halls from that port. She left London
on May %, arrived at Fort Point at 8 D.
M, June Sth, and came to Bangor in
charge Of pilot John Mcconnell Of Bucks
port. She carries crew of 26 men, all
told. On the passage, when nearing the
Grand Banks, the steamer passed III ice
bergs in one day.

The New Yacht Indra.

The new sloop yacht Indra, built by c.
F. Brown of Pulpit Harbor for W. S. Hill
of Boston, sailed last week for Marble
head. A correspondent of the Rockland
Daily Star gives the following description
of the yacht:
She was designed by Brown on lines verv
similar to those of the Surf &c. E. McIn-
tires boat except that she is inches
higher sided and has 20 it. waterline,
She is sloop rugged and has topsail, bal
loon jib, jib topsail and spinnaker, besides
her three lower sails, all of which were
| made by Brown. The interior arrange
ments are marvel for economy of space
and were largely designed by Mr.. Hall.
There is commodious cabin finished in
light and dark woods, the sides of which
are entirely made up of lockers, There is
linen closet, silver closet, one for glass
with plate glass door, one for toilet articles
with plate glass mirror set in door, two
large coat lockers, and Others The cush-
ions for the transoms were made by
Hovey of Boston. They are of hair, cover
ed with brown velOuis. The transoms are
also fitted with miniature spring beds
There are silk pillows which on examin
alton prove to be the blankets neatly fold
ed and slipped into silk case left open at
one side and provided with buttons and
button holes. The hangings are of brocade
silk in olive tints and the floor, which is of
oak, is neatly covered by nice rug. Aft of
the cabin is the toilet room: on one side of
this is the china closet, and on the other
gasoline stove and the cooking utensils
are located The opening to these com
partments is concealed by a silk portiere
while the cabin steps are ingeniously
hinged at one side and swing around like
a door to admit one. Forward OF the
cabin are two large berths and more
locker room, this space being separated
from the cabin also by portieres. There
is folding mahogany table which occu-
pies space of about the thickness of a
board when packed. Then there are brass
lamps and brass fittings everywhere that
they are needed. The deck is entirely
smooth except for the skylight and gang
way, which are of mahogany. There is a
small cockpit but no coaming around it.
Mr.. Hall was out sailing several times
here and expressed himself as highly sat
istied with the sailing and working quail
ties of his boat. She will belong to the
Eastern Yacht Club, of which he is a
member. He will spend most of the sum-
mer cruising and expects to visit Maine
with party later in the season, stopping
at Pulpit Harbor, which he affirms is the
prettiest place on the coast of Maine.

means of drummers is a curse to the

merchants are led to buy a little more
than they otherwise would and perhaps
more than they should; but by this

degree that no upheaval of the universe

to promote the sale of his particular
brew, can buy up liquor store on two

appreciate the qualities of Jones beer.
No, Mr. Jones, the world cannot get
along without the drummer. He is, if
