George 5. Thayer returned Tuesday
afternoon from Franklin, where he
had since May / been in charge of a
lookout station on Schoodic mountain
for the forestry department, which
station was one of the new ones es-
tablished last spring and was placed
on the summit of the mountain, which
is 1899 feet high. Mr.. Thayer states
that his job was not a lonesome one
as hardly a day passed without visi-
tors at the station. His most novel
visitor was a big bun moose which
called on him July q and remained
for an hour and half within 80 yards
of the station, where Mr.. Thayer was
sitting on a ledge. The number of Wis
itors at the lookout station during the
season was 1923, the majority of them
coming Sundays. The greatest num-
Der of visitors at on etime was 20, on
Sunday, Sept. 10. and the average
number of Sunday visitors was from
10 to 26. Mr.. Thayer comes home well
Drowned from his outdoor life and
states that on the whole he passed a
most enjoyable summer.

Work Is now in progress on upper
Water street preparatory to placing
in position the last piece Of steel work
in connection with the building Of
the new double track Maine Central
bridge, which section will be the over
head bridge over Water street and will
extend from pier No. 1 to the abut-
ment on the west side Of Water street,
connecting the main bridge with the
company's tracks on the west side of
the river. The new overhead bridge
will be quite a bit longer than the
present one, crossing the street as
1t does at a greater angle. The work
in progress at present consists at pres
ent in putting up the false work Of
hard pine which will be used in plao-
ing the overhead bridge in position,
and 1t Is now expected that everything
will be In readiness to slide the new
bridge into place Sunday, Oct. II. AS
to the time on which the change will
be made 1t Is considered probable that
the work will be commenced after
the passage of Train 764, which goes
west from Augusta at 949 A. M. Sun
days only, and will be finished in sea-
son to allow the passage of Train I'll,
which goes east from Augusta Sun
days at 2.59 P. NJ, making that train
the first to pass over the new bridge.
