TREE-sAwING MACHINE.
Lumber and Labor-Saving invention
of Machias Man.

Lumber and Labor-Saving invention
of Machias Man.
Daniel ". Smith, OF Machiss, we'll
known lumberman, has invented tree
saving machine, and has filed application
for patent on it in the United States and
in Canada.
1t is machine for saving down trees,
particularly in the woods. The main OBJ
Jet of the invention is the economizing OF
lumber The machine, it is said, will saw
down at the bottom, or near the root, and
save a foot usually left on the stump. Tbs
machine is designed TO get the extra foot.
and the best and most yaluab bic part OF the
tree.
1t also economies la Dor, and Is operated
by one man while standing up 10 his
work. The work is done easily and the
extra effort usually required to operate a
eross-cut saw is unnecessary. Besides, the
lumber jacks don't like to operate a cross
cut saw close to the bottom of the tree,
because il necsssitstss their getting down
on their knees, often time in wet snow,
and in the mud and slush.
The machine is operated by one man.
1t is light and compact and folds so that q
person can easily transport it from place
to place, without the assistance of a
second hand. 1t is folding adjustable
contrivanee, comprising metal frame, at
taehed 10 a tree by clamp and supported
by adjustable legs to conform to the even
ness OF the earth's surface. On this ma
chine is mounted q sliding carrier, feed
for the same being furnished by an adj
Unstable spring and ratchet attachment.
The carrier is fitted with adjustable roller
and saw guides, and guide bar with roller
and power controlled by a folding brake.
A demonstration was made on the
Penobseoi river recently, and all present
pronounced the machine a success. Tree
after tree was cut down while watches
were held. AT the conclusion OF the test
il was decided that the machine would do
more work and do 1t more satisfactorily
than two cross-cut saws requiring four
men. There would be little or no expense
in swapping roads, because the cut OF the
tree is On a leyel with the earth and no
stumps protrude to affect hauling out the
timber.

THE BRIG SULLIVAN.

OF the brig Sullivan, the loss Of which
was reported in THE AMERIcAN last
week, our Gouldsboro correspondent
writes:
The brig Sullivan, wrecked at Fayai q shor,

years ago for the John s. Emery Co., of Bos-
ton, Darius Tracy was master builder. and
she WAS one Of the finest OF the many vessels
built in the Gouidsboro yard.

voyage was made the winter OF 'ss and 81.
She vent from Gouldsboro to Portland in
ballast. From Portland she sailed 10 savan-
nah, Ca, with hay. AT savannah she took
a load Of cotton Tor Liverpool, Eng. At Liver
pool she loaded with salt and made the re-
turn voyage TO Boston.
The sullivan's hrst crew consisted of Capt.
Jesse Perry; drst mate, William Handy.

Capt. Perry was in command of the sull-
van for about twenty-five years. and was
succeeded by Capt. Higgins. One year, In

old brig earned Der owners something over

The attitude 81 President Huerta,
of Mexico, seems 10 be ''come and
put me out". From the Mexican
sense of honor, he would be disgraced
by peaceable abdication, while forci-
BILE eviction would be retirement with
honor. Hence his attitude is the
natural one. Just now Uncle Sam is
considering the best method OF put
ting him out. The roundabout way
suggested 10 to raise the embargo on
arms and ammunition, thus giving the
revolutionists the means to over
throw Huerta; the direct method is by
Invasion. Now comes a third sug-
gestion the starving cut OF the

ing of financial aid by this govern
meut and the European powers. II
