A NEW INDUSTRY.
Box Board Mill Will Soon Be Built
At kennebec.

S. II. Boardnlan of the Guilford Man
ufacturing Co. of Guilford, and Mr.
Varney of the Isaac Varney & Sons
Co. of North Berwick and Fall River,
have purchased Is acres of land adj
joining on the south of the Boyd &
Harvey plant at Kennebec on the
east side of the river, few miles
north of the city, and will build a por-
table mill for the manufacture of box
boards. They are now putting in the
foundation for the mill and getting the
buoys ready for the booms, and ex-
eept to have the mill in operation by
the time that the logs come along.
The lumber to be used by the COM
pany is fir and it is planned to saw
100000 feet or more the coming sea-
son. If conditions warrant it is prob
able that the amount to be sawed an
other year will be 100000 or more.
With the new mill in operation togeth-
er with the two other mills already
located at that point, it looks as if
there would be busy times at Kennebec
the coming summer.

The Steamer City of Waterville
Last to Navigate the Kennebec
Between Augusta and Waterville

! various stopping places along the
route. The steamer arrived at Au-
| gusta at about 10 o'clock Saturday
forenoon, July u, and her coming was
one of the events of the season. AS
| she steamed up the river to her land
ing she was under the guidance of
Warren c. Philbrook of Waterville,
now an associate justice of the SUI
preme judicial court of Maine, while
by the pilot house stood Names pres
ent Governor. The master of the ship
on that memorable voyage was Capt.
Rath Warren.
The steamer and her party were
given a most cordial welcome at Au-
gusta and during the time that she
lay at her dock here she was visited
by hundreds of people. At 100 that
afternoon her lines were cast off and
she was headed for the Kennebec
dam and Waterville, and it was then
that she began to encounter some of
the hard places that come with ex-
perience, for while the trip from Ban
gor to Augusta had been an endless
round of pleasure, the last few miles
that lay between Augusta and the
steamers final destination brought
number.
Almost Immediately after leaving
the Augusta on her way up river the
steamer encountered logs, and when
after a hard struggle she reached the
railroad bridge she was caught there
between a jam of logs and the east
pier of the bridge and went ashore
and laid there for the night. On the
following Sunday morning, through
the aid of Al Hamilton of Augusta,
and a crew of river men she was res
cued from her predicament and at II
o'clock succeeded in passing through
the locks at the Kennebec dam.
And her trials did not end there,
for while the passage up the river for
some miles was made without any
thrilling incidents there was trouble
ahead Extensive preparations had
been made to give the steamer rous-
ing reception when she should reach
her wharf at Waterville. and hun
dreds of people, also a brass band
specially engaged for the occasion,
were awaiting her, but they were des-
tined to be disappointed, for instead
of steaming majestically up to her
landing behind the island below the
Lockwood mill she went ashore On
Meeting House rock near the Winslow
shore and opposite the Waterville
Plains, where she laid all night, and
finally reached her landing the next
day.
The steamers career on the Kenne-
bee river was not destined to be a
long one, for while she was operated
for the remainder of that season and
a portion of the season of 1891, at ir-
regular intervals. she never was a sue
cess, and was finally sold and taken
to Biddeford Pool. Thus terminated
what will probably be the last steam
boat service between augusta and
Waterville

That it does not take people long
to forget a certain event, or series
of events, no matter what circum-
stances may be connected with them,
is shown by the following paragraphs.
A short time ago the Journal receiv-
ed note from one of it's readers asking
how long ago it was that the last
steamboat ran between Augusta and
watervillc, and straightway prepared
to answer the question, but almost at
the outset encountered some obstacles,
for while almost everybody over 80
years of age seemed to be able to
state offhand that the steamer in ques-
ton was the City of Waterville, when
it came to saying just when she be-
gan and when she ended her career
on the Kennebec river that was an
other matter.
Answers to the latter question va
ried widely. Some who were asked
the question thought that the steamer
was on the route about 16 years ago
and not over 90 at the outside, and
the guesses varied from 16 to 80 years,
all of which goes to show that mem
ory is not always to be depended up
on, for as a matter of fact the steam
er, according to the files of the Ken
nebec Journal. began her brief and
varied career on the Kennebec "a
years ago next July.
The steamer City of Waterville was
a stern-wheeled light draft craft, not
unlike the old steamer Della Collins
which used to run between Augusta
and Gardiner in connection with the
Kennebec and Boston boats, only
smaller, and was designed to run be-
tween Waterville and Gardiner, the
idea being to make the former city
the head of navigation on the Kenne-
bee river. She was built at Bangor
by Capt S. H. Barbour of that city,
and cost between $4,000 and $4,000, the
fund necessary for her construction
being raised by subscription by Hon.
William T. Haines of Waterville. the
present Governor of Maine, and the
greater part of the stock was owned
by Waterville and Winslow people.
A company was then formed, the Of
ficers being as follows: President, l..
H. Soper; treasurer, P. S. Head;
clerk, w. T. Haines, all of whom were
from Waterville.
The length of the seamer was. 90
feet over all and the length of her
hull rs feet. Her beam on the hull
was 20 feet and on the deck "a feet.
Her depth was four feet and it was
estimated that she would draw Is in
ches Of water She had three keels
of hard pine, and her frame was of
hard wood planked With spruce. Her
motive power was furnished by two
60-horsepower engines with Pinch
cylinders with a 36-inch stroke.
On her maiden trip from Bangor
around TO the Kennebec river she
brought quite a party of stockholders
who had gone to Bangor for that pur-
pose, and the occasion was a jolly
one, the steamer and her passengers
being given a hearty greeting at the

Cards are out announcing the open
ing of the baseball season in Augusta
next Monday afternoon, Patriots Day,
when the Cony High team will meet
the Lewrence High team of Fairfield,
the game to be called at 230. 1t is
probable that the Cony High battery
will be Brennan and Calvert. Cony's
team this year includes some new men
but under the able instruction by
Coach Soule they are fast getting into
shape and there is every reason to
believe the with the practice that
comes with each game played they
will develop into team of winners.
The Lawrence High boys are said
to be snappy lot and this being the
case the game next Monday after
noon should be well worth seeing.
AS Monday is a legal holiday the at
tendance should be large, and it is
hoped that everybody will be on hand
to give the boys a rousing sendoff.
