SHIPPING ITEMS 1t was currently reported
IN Portland last week that the schooner yacht
Coronet, the only craft now owned by the
Holy Ghost and Us society, will soon be strip
ped and consigned to the junk heap. On her
return last month from her memorable cruise
she was in such shape that many who saw her
wondered how she could possibly have kept
above water. No work has since been done on
| the craft, her sides are still covered with ma
| rine growth, her planks have been bored and
| bored by tropical worms until there is hardly
sound place in the hull. More than that her
rigging has rotted so that it is of little use,
| and it is thought it would cost more to refit
her than to buy new boat. The schooner
Eastern Light, Capt. W. R. Robinson, went
ashore last Thursday on Pumpkin Rock, not
| far from Boothbay, and is a total loss. She
was bound from Beverly, Mass to Bangor
with 100 barrels of lubricating oil for Snow &
| Nealley. The oil is insured. The Eastern
| Light was built at Chelsea, Mass in 1s47, is II
tons net and halls from Machias. The fish
! ing schooner Elizabeth N, one of Capt. T. M.
| Nicholson's fleet arrived at Bucksport Novem-
Der 9Th from the Banks with a good fare of
Goldfish. She cleared from Bucksport July
18th. Sch M. V. B. Chase, Capt Pattershall,
arrived at Boston Nov. 10th after a stormy
passage from Thompso1's Point, N. ]. She
| brought in cargo of about 500 tons of nitrate
cake for the Cochrane Chemical Works . Sch
Mary Ann Mccain lost her jibboom while at
anchor in Portland harbor last week. The big
six-master George E. Walcott came in for a
harbor and passing a .ross the bows of the little
two master came up into the wind. She was
not quite far enough away, however, for as
the stern swung around, it hit the jibboom of
the Mccain and broke it off. At the same
time, the stern boat of the sx-master which
hung at the davits was somewhat damaged.
The Mccain was lowed to the railway the
next day for repairs -. Last Sunday after
noon the Deer Isle schooner Clara B. Kennard
came flying up the harbor before the south
westerly gale, rounded to off Lanes wharf
and without dropping anchor ran line to the
wharf and hauled in. She is rs tons net but
had crew of only two men. She was built at
North Weymouth, Mass. in 1886, and came to
this port to load hay The ship Aryan has
sailed from Boston for Baltimore to load coal
for Seattle D. In making Portland harbor last
Sunday the fve-masted schooner Mary E.
Palmer, bound for Bangor with cargo of
coal, lost an anchor with $50 feet of chain. A
second anchor was let go and held the
schooner.
