YELLOW PINE LUMBER MAY BE
EXPORTED FOREIGN.

Demand May Take 1t Ont in large
Lots in Foreign BottOms-Steamer
Now in Port to Take sample
CrOssties TO HoIInnd-Crev of Bark
Antonio Heard FrOm-Of Interest
to Seamen.
Local lumbermen are interested in
exporting the yellow pine to foreign
countries in its manufactured state,
that is, as sawn lumber, crossties and
all the sizes usually turned out by the
mills.
In both Holland and Germany there
is a prospective demand for American
pine lumber. The most encouraging
development for the lumbermen was
the purchase by a firm in Holland of a
sample lot Of American crossties to be
shipped on a steamer now in port. If
these ties are found to be what the
Dutch want for the building of rail-
ways, trade development of the most
satisfactory kind for Savannah are ex-
pected. Baltic and White sea ties are
now used in Holland, but they are said
to be inferior to the yellow pine tie
of the South.
The crew of the bark Antonio, which
sailed from Palma Feb. II for Savan-
nah, and was later lost, as reported at
the time, has been heard from through
the captain. Writing to a firm of local
exporters, he states that the Antonio
sprung a leak and was fast sinking
when the crew abandoned her on Feb.
10. She was not heard from again, and
the supposition Is she went down
shortly after being abandoned.

SKILL IN NEEDLECRAFT.
beautiful Pictures in Embroidery
Worked by 81 Gifted French
Woman.

A marvellous example of what the
needle of one woman may accomplish
in embroidery has lately been exhib-
tied in London. 1t consists of a series
of panels, II in number, II by 3 feet.
embroidered on cream satin.
In this work some 1870 different
shades of silk and chenille have been
employed, all being exquisitely blend
ed to produce the soft subdued tones
peculiar to the Louis XIV. period. The
subject of the panels, 1.-THE Months"
is borrowed from celebrated Gobelin
