of western Maine. also, where the in
dustry is important There are num-
eroHs saw mills in that part of the
state which are kept busy all the year
round saving white birch logs into
strips -four feet long and from one
to two inches wide and of the same
thickness. These strips are sent to
the spool factories, where they are
quickly worked into spools by the
most ingenious labor-saying machin-
cry.
The strips of white birch are fed
into one machine, and they are not
touched. in fact, are hardly seen again,
until the spools. all finished for mar
ket, except polishing. drop out by the
bushel from another machine several
rods away from where the strips
started in. The spools get their gloss
by being rapidly revolved in barrels

last year for goods.
"A curious and profitable business
has grown up in the Maine woods near
the saw mills in the utilizing of the
immense quantities OF sawdust by COM

waste material are bought for mere
nothing, and are pressed into compact
blocks and bales, and in this form is
finding ready market for kiudling

Tightly Little.

We learn through reliable source
that on Monday evening about us
o'clock, that two men threw an
other one out of a certain saloon in
town and theu hit and kicked him.
The victim of the assault was too full
of intoxicants to defend himself from
the attack of the two-one the clerk
and the other a changer on" around
the place, where he had evidently got
his drink. Several of our business
men witnessed the occurrence and ex-
pressed great disgust at such actions
and said they thought it was about as
little thing as one could do.

Snow.

Mother earth was completely cover
ed in robes of white Monday morning
the first snow Of the season. Quite
a number of sleighs were soon on the
20, even while the snow was still
falling. There was about two or
three inches of snow in all. Traffic
on the streets soon put the prospects
OF sleigh ride to aside as the dirt in
turn covered the snow, and thus van
gushing what promised that evening
to be a harvest for the liveryman.
Cold weather followed, the tempature
dropping about 20 to 80 degrees.
Three inches oil ice has been cut from
the ponds. The cold weather is gene
raj and many places are experiencing
the severest weather in twenty five
years. The young folks had another
opportunity to use their skates and
despite the cold weather did SO. The
coal dealer rejoiced at the snap that
struck us, while the plumber has lots
of work to do.
