PASSING OF A GIANT TRUCK.
And the Mist AXE or Driver Who Thought
the End OF II Was Near

About as long a wheeled outfit as any
that traverses the cty's streets is the giant
four-horse truck Of the kind used for haul
ing iron beams. One of these trucks,
with its two pairs of big horses strung out
ahead, the truck itself reaching half a
block. more or less, and the beams stick
ing out well behind, takes up considerable
space. But there are times when the
great truck takes up more room than it
does at others, as, for instance, when,
instead of load of beams or something
like that, it has a load, say, of car rails
One of these outfits with load of rails.
was encountered passing along Ninth street
across University place, the other day and
it excited wonder in the hearts of all be-
holders.
at the time down University place, above
Ninth street, there came into view, pro-
ceeding along Ninth street from the west
to the east, pair of great horses moving
with ponderous slowness, and followed
presently by another pair of the same
kind moving in just the same manner
and then presently appeared the great
trucks giant forward pair of wheels.
Then came the forward ends of the long
part OF this trucks equipment, and then
presently there came in sight the forward
end of the load Of rails slung under them:
and then for some time beams and rails
continued to pass before the eye in a sort
OF two-storied procession, truck beams
above and rails below. that it seemed
would never stop
But after a time the giant pair Of rear
wheels came rolling into sight and at the
sight of them the driver of light wagon,
an expressman. who, like the pedes rian
here mentioned, had been coming down
University place and had been halted by
the passing giant truck. made up his mind
would just drive around the end Of it now
and go on
And he started up his horse. and turned
him over to the right hand side of the
road, so as to get all the space he could,
and started ahead TO where he could look
along Ninth street to the west, whence
the great truck was coming: but when he
had got that far he halted again. with an
expression on his face that said as plainly
as anything could say:
well. III be jigRered!'
He had thought that he could drive
around the end of the outfit now, easily:
but there was so much of it still to come
that he could scarcely vet see the end of
it. So he held up again and patiently
waited, the horses of the great truck out
fit being then we'll TO the east Of University
place, the truck stretching clean across
that thoroughfare, and the rails still pro-
jectng well to the west of it along Ninth
street.
But ntime, as all things pass, the great
outfit had passed completely over. and
University place had been opened up again;
and so. al Last, the pedestrian and the ex-
pressman were enabled to proceed on their
way down University place, the express
man starting up his horse briskly to make
up for lost time.

JULIE PEASE COULDN'T STAND 1T.


MINEo, Me-, Aug. o2.--Jule Pease, owner
and commander of the Suncook Lake
steamer George A., spent part OF the
week in the custody Of deputy sheriff
at Dover, and thereby hangs a tale. In
spite Of the fact that shooting was the
cause of detention, the developments
promise to be entertaining. The trouble
is all due to steamboat rivalry.
When Pease bought the historic George
A. and lowed it down the west branch OF
the Penobscot River to Chesuncook Lake,
there was a sensation, because 1t was the
first craft Of its kind this wilderness
lake had ever known, and its appearance
was greeted with much the same enthu-
siasm that welcomed Fulton in his first
efforts on the Hudson.
For several years the George A. was king
of the lake. but recently a new boat, the
Caribou. has made its appearance. Being
a new boat, it naturally felt somewhat
above the queer craft, which was faml-
iarly known among visitors al The Bug
owing to it's resemblance at distance to
a potato bug, The George A. neverthe-
was created which did not lessen under
the soothing influence Of time.
Last week a crew of woodsmen ap-
preached Commander Pease and asked
him to tow scow down the lake He
refused The crew then secured the rival
boat and when they came To Pease's place
they lay to and numerically hooted and
ieered the owner Of the ancient boat.
Pease has some French blood in his veins,
and life in the woods has given him indie
pendence of action He stood the racket

ONE DRINK THAT FAILS HERE.
Slight Demand for Srrack. the FayOrite
Liquor Of Fast Indians.

If arrack, the favorite drink OF East
Indians justified one-half OF the praise
of poets and travellers il would not be
selling in the New York market. as it is,
for 81 quart, and the demand for
it would long ago have been sufficient to
make arrack drinking a fad Few wines
or liquors have been so often, so long or
80 generously cxtolled as arrack. but
though described as the drink of kings
and princes, Of fairies and magcians, of
warriors and wanderers, it somehow does
not seem TO take hold" in this country
and practically the only use found for it
is as a foundation for punch.
The belief is general, but, though general,
erroneous, that arrack is formed from the
fermentation Of cocoanuts and it has gained
therefore, the name of cocoanut wine.
AS n matter Of fact, arrack Is produced
from the areca nut, or the arrack tree
The word is Of Indian origin and the term
Is applied IN most parts of India and the
East Indies TO designate any sort of spiritu-
ous liquor. Arrack is distinguished from
othsr ardent spirits by It's stimulating and
narJ tic properties; It's flavor is peculiar,
and it differs considerably in consequence
Of the various articles of which it ia pre-
pared. and the unequal care taken in its
manufacture.
Batavia or Java arrack is considered the
best; it is obtained by distiation from
rice and molasscs. with only small mixture
Of cocoanut toddy, Ceylon arrack ia in
variably made from the vegetable Juice
toddy. which flows by incision from tho
cocoanut tree; after the juice Is fermented
II is distilled and rectifled; some are of the
opinion that it ia equal to the Batavia.
Arrack ia white and transparent Pine
apples stepped in it impart an exquisite
unrivalled for making punch Several
thousand gallons are sold in this country
for that purpose each year, but as a steady
drink it has attained no success. The
number Of East Indians in the United States
is insignificant. and when they drink. they
drink rum

A Fatal Accident.

Frank Reno, an old time Blackfooter
of the early eighties, but who is now
engaged in the ranch and sheep business
lea Dubois, was down from his place
to nixon, Saturday, where a wreck
occurred between freight trains Friday
night, one OF them being loaded with
sheep in which he was interested. Ollie
Spicer, a young man enroute east with
the sheep was killed in the smash up,
Strange to say, no others were seriously
injured. A second section ran into the
real of the first train. The young man
who met death had in view a visit to
his childhood home in North Carolina,
but the sad news will go to his sorrow
ing friends of his untimely end, and in
stead of the light of his presence to
bring tears of joy, the sadness of death
will now hover over the household.

The Crook County Monitor, Of
Crook County Wyoming, of. No
vember 10th. has the following con-
eerning an oldstine Pullmahite:
"Mr. w. 4. Bramel, Of the land
office, has been confined to his bed
since last Saturday evening as the
result Of a gunshot wound in the
heshy part of the right thigh. Mr..
.Bramel and Ralph Benns were at
the rooms of the former when Ralph
picked up revolver and was test
ing the modus operandi Of the
weapon, which was accidentally
discharged. The leaden missile,
from 38 Smith & Wesson shell,
entered the limb in front Of the fe-
muir bone, barely missing an artery,
the severing of which might have
proven fatal. The bullet ranged
slightly downward, psssing entirely
through the limb and terminating
when it came in contact with the
underclothing on the opposite side.
To the surprise Of Mr.. Branel as
we'll as Others the bullet was found
in his sock, one side Of the bullet
being slightly bent With the dis
charge of the revolver the light was
extinguisned and CONSERVATION
reigned for a few minutes. Medical
assistance was soon at hand, the
wound was carefully dressed and
the patient made as comfortable as
possible. Mr.. Bramel is doing
nicely"
