Picks Up Packages and Discharges
Them at Any Height.
A machine which picks up barrels
and other packages from the ground or
door and automatically elevates and
discharges them at any desired height
has been invented by a Florida man.
Such a machine should prove almost
Indispensable for storing or stacking
barrels and similar receptacles.
The machine IL mounted on a frame
work provided with wheels, whereby
II can be readily moved about. On
the framework is an incline, up which
the barrels are pushed. the Incline ex-
tending from the ground to landing
on which the barrels are discharged.
The barrels are pushed M the incline

markable case of piracy has occurred on

o'clock in the morning the captain
heard footsteps outside his cabin, and
opening the door. found himself con-

MUST CLOSE SUNDAY.

City Marshal Instructed to See That
Stores are Closed.
At recess meeting OF the city govern
ment Monday evening, it was voted to in
struct the city marshal to see that Els
worth stores are closed Sundays.
The meeting was calle0 to act on the
petition for the laying out Of . winter road
over the route Of the proposed new section
Of the Shore road on the eastern side Of the
river.
Street Commissioner Hurley reported
that the road had been laid ont as petit
toned, and as soon as snow came would
be passable g winter road. The way as
laid out was formally accepted.
The petition signed by all the clergy
men Of Ellsworth asking for the closing
Of stores on Sunday, was then taken up,
and discussed informally at some length.
Rev. R. B. Mathews and v. F. Hendee were
present, and spoke in favor of the petit
tion. On motion OF Aid. Alexander, it was
Voted, That the petition as presented by the
clergymen Of the city in regard to the closing
Of business places in the city on Sunday, be
SrauScus as pEOVluCu IN ecCtloA xosA Cu8s'Nsf
l2s of the revised Z. e ii Hsine and that
JsIe City marshal be instructed to enforce the
| above statute.
The ass sssors had asked for the sense O!
the aldermen in regard to the collection OF
tax assessed against the Ambursen
Hydraulic Construction Co. It seemed
the sense Of the board that the assessment,
which is nominal, should stand, though
no vote as TO the sense Of the board was
taken. The aldermen, in discussing the
matter, referred to damage done to roads
and concrete cross-walks by the heavy
loads hauled during the summer by the
construction company, cost for the repairs
of which the tax against the company
would not begin to cover.
The meeting closed with q lively tilt
between Aldermen Curtis and Stuart in
regard to the use Of the city team for
hauling wood from the city wood lot at
Hancock.
Aid. Curtis said the wood was cut and
ready to haul as soon as Snow came. He
did not feel like hiring teams to haul the
wood when the city's money had been
spent for city team, the use OF which for
hauling wood was one Of the things con-
sidered when the team was bought.
Aid. Stuart said the hauling OF wood by
the team was not considered. He thought
the fire underwriters and insurance men
would discredit Ellsworth if it sent its fire
team into an adjoining town to haul wood.
The discussion bid fair to grow warm,
but Mayor Greedy interrupted and the
meeting adjourned.

for home missionary work. This is to be
expended as reimbursement to those
whom they may secure to come and

RODERICK M'DoNALD MISSING.


River Woods.
Roderick Mcdonald, one OF Ellswoeth,e;
best-known elderly residents, has besn.
missing for three weeks, and little hops H.
entertained now that be will be found
alive. He was last seen three weeks ago.
to-day on the main road near Middle
branch bridge, Aurora, after coming out
from the Mace and Crosby camps, which.
he had visited.
Mr.. Mcdonald was for many years ono
OF the best-kJiown mon on Union river.
For years be worked in the woods, and i'm
the spring was boss Of the Union river loG
drives. Failing health the past few years
has compelled his retirement, but each
fall and spring the call Of the woods was
strong upon him, and it was his custom to.
visit each year the numbering camps in
winter and the river drivers camps in the
spring.
Though urged not to rake the trip this
winter, he persisted in doing 90. He viz
tied the Crosby and Mace camps as stated.
He left the Mace camp Monday, Dec. q.
saying he was going to the Nahum Jordan
camps BY way Of the bark road. instead
Of going to the Jordan camp, he cams ont
to Aurora, reaching Joseph Ritckfssss
Tuesday in time for dinner. II II not
known where be stopped Monday night.
After dinner Tuesday he went to thes
camp Of Henry Chatterly near Middle
branch and stopped there Tuesday night.
He wss advised there that he had bettex-
60 home, and when he left Wednesday
morning he sAid he would 60 to Aurora
and take the stage for home. He was last.
seen near Middle branch bridge, presum-
ably on his way to Aurora with the inten-
tion Of coming home. It is presumed that
he again changed his mind, and started
for the Jordan or some other camps and
r IosL In,s vi. st-st ,.,nrteaae and
Mr.. Mcdonald was an experienced
! woodsman, but was not equipped for even
ka short stay in the woods alone, and there;
Is very small chance that he will be found
alive. He had really been missing two.
weeks before search was made for him, as
his relatives and friends here believed he
was still at the camps, and in the camps
he had visited it was supposed he had
gone home or to other camps.
Another searching party will 60 into the
woods this afternoon.
