WHEELS AND SLED RUNNERS.
A Few Facts About Their Manufacture From
Rough Lumber.

A Journal reporter stepped into 4
shop where carriage wheels, shafts and
sled runners are manufactured.
Wednesday, and learned several in
teresting things connected with that
business. Nearly all wheels are made
Of hickory or OAK, although ash is
sometimes used, but wheels made from
ash are not of a good quality, since
they will not retain their shape. A
wheel rim is in two pieces, each n
semi circle. These are made from
straight pieces of wood, which are bent
and steamed and placed in mOuldS.
After the wood is perfectly dry and is
removed from the mould. it has been
transformed into a perfect half circle.
The heavy rims such as are used for
heavy cart wheels cannot be bent by
hand, but it is necessary to use ma
chinery.
1t was but a few years ago that 4
man must go into the woods and dig
up a crooked root if he wanted Il piece
Of wood for a sled runner. 1t was
difficult to find a root that was suita-
Bile and a great deal of labor was in
Volved But now sled runners may be
made from a straight piece Of oak
with cross section all the way from
IL inches to by inches. Two longi-
tudinal cuts are first made in one end
of the beam. which makes it easier to
be bent and aids to prevent splitting
Then it is steamed and bent to the
desired curve and allowed to season
thoroughly. An iron band is bolted
firmly about the curve So that it can
not straighten out without breaking
the heavy iron. a tremendous force
IS eXerted in bending these heavy
pieces of hard wood and special ma
chinery is needed for the purpose
Small wheel rims or runners are made
in our smaller shops, but those Of a
heavier structure have to be obtained
from the large manufactures, where
there are means of turning them out

Will Stop Fast Driving.

An arrest was made. yesterday
afternoon, for fast driving and the vic
tim was fined 81 and costs by Judge
Andrews in the police court THIS is
the first of a series of arrests City
Marshal Breen will cause to be made
until the fast driving is stopped
AS soon as City Marshal Breen
was elected people from the upper end
of State street asked that he do some
thing to prevent the fast driving. y
similar request came from people from
Bangor street, who claimed that it was
menace to safety when they wished
to cross the street.
The officers have been given instruc-
lions to see that the ordinance relating
to the fast driving is enforced to the
letter and every appearance of the
people who violate it will be used in
thu same manner that the young man
was used, yesterday afternoon.
City Marshal Breen said yesterday,
that it was of no use to put on an Off
Ger to stop the driving and then let
the people commence again, but that
he intended to have a strict enforce
ment Of the law and that there would
be no change from the provisions of
the ordinance.

Octoroon. While she did not have the
opportunity she had in other plays of
the company, yet she showed her capa-
