THE .MARINE: RECORD • A LUMBER EMPORIUM. • _^ Corrttpontletw Mm> Yor* Evening Pott, Along while before one roaches Saginaw tho slgnfl of this prevailing Inilustry-beeume nppnreut, The streams ure clogged u lib tlir slabs, browned nnd rotting logs, unit chaotic ' mnsBCB'.of wooden debris from the size ot a match up to tho huge sawn beam which in Borne ancient flood hna escaped Its booth. In the Holds still remain the tree-slumps or - piles of sawdust a dozen feet high, niiiikltig tho old site of n wiiB-mlll now removed be¬ cause'the material, (hat fed It has been cut nway. But all these initial syniptoins of the lumbar region are eclipsed nnd forgotten when the Saginaw river is' reached, and with It tho busy center of tho Industry. For 10 miles down 10 Bay City, near Luke Hn- ■ ron, the stream, Hows between wooden' strands. The eye strains I'soll'ln. vain to seo beyond the lumber horizon that stretches oast and west. Tho yellow w;iters, perhaps 200 foot wide, pass first between continuous - booms,, each enclnslnglts army of giant logs. Thcso boimiB roach tar above Saginaw, and If we Include tributaries of the liver and coutit.bcth sides, make up a reach of'log posts 75 miles long. Next to the logs, and on tlio bank proper, rise, most Impressive of all, tho-tracts ol sawn lumber. File on pile they rise on cither side for 10 miles up and down tlio stream, covering ncre nftor ncro ' until the wooden monotony bceomeB oppres- .•sive/ Now nnd then the wooden strund be¬ comes thinner only to rise ngnln to more Imposing height nnd width nrouuil n now cluster bf.mlllB. Tlieio mills often of grand proportions, spring from their lumber heaps nan giant of fnlry Btory-looms amid the - disintegrated bones of his victims. Their tnll'lrou chimneys bcleh blnck mnokc; tho rnttllng snws cut tho air with their distant rasp, nnd the sense of Industrial actlveness Is tilled out by the hlveB of workmen swarm¬ ing over the lumber hills, nnd loading them, by slow steady (oil. Into barges whose hulls rival the cnpaclly of a Cnnilrder. Along this stretch of 10 inljes of tho Sag¬ inaw river there are cut annually a billion foet of lumber, nnd last yenr the figures went 60 millions higher than that amount, Since, to moat readers those llgures nre n vague Immensity of numbers, let us try to simplify llicm by nil Illustration. A foot of lumber, the unit of broad measure, means a bonrd one foot square nnd one lneli thick; so thnli for example, it plank two inches thick, one foot wide and ten feet long would contain 20 lumber feet. Now apply the measure to the figures of tho annual Sag¬ inaw lunrlier pruduct, us cited above. Wo shall find that the Saginaw mills turu out each-year so much lumber, large and small, that If It were nil cut In Inch-thick bourds, ench of thsrn one foot wide, nnd llicn. these boards were placed cncMo end, they would roach nbntit 200,000 miles nrdund our planet. The product, to put the Illustration n little differently, would supply lumber enough for n fence lour tlmoB around tho world, mndo of BOlId wooden posts, nnd with a ' double row of boards eacli six Inches wide. More roughly I estimate that the yearly Snglnnw lumber product In IngB flouting closely together would cover a water area of considerably more than four square miles. »LL IMPURITIES OFTHE BLOOD. constipation. sauLtaSt1-* anaiondcruoMM pit or stomach, denponiloney.

From the Jloomerang, I have just returned from a trip up from tlio ji(ortli Wisconsin railway, where I went to ontch n string of codfish nnd' nnythlng else that might bo contnglouB. ' Northern Wlm-onstn is tiie place where they yank n big wet log Into a mill and turn ll Into cash as quick us a railroad man can draw his salary out of the pay car. The log is held on u carriage by means of Iron dogs while it is being worked into luiiiber. These Iron (Jogs are not like those we see on the' front steps of a brown stone front occaslonul- ly. They nre another breed ol dogs. The managing editor of the mill lays out the log In his mind nnd works It into di¬ mension mutt, shingle holts, slabs, edgings, two by fours, t,wo by eights, two bv sixes, etc., bo us tp use the goods to tlio best ad¬ vantage," JiiHt as a woman takes « dreBs pattern and cuts It so sho won't have to piece tile front breadths, and will still have enough left to make a polonaise for the lust summer gown. 1 stood there for a long time' watching the various anws and listening to ihclr monotonous growl, und wishing that I hud .. been horn u successful limber thief instead of n poor boy without a rug to my back. At one of these mills, not long ago, a man backed up to ge,t away from the carriage, nnd thuHghilessly hacked ngaiiiSt li large saw thin was revolving at the rate of about 2(10 tlmus n niiiiuU'. The saw took n Inrgecliew ol tohucLO from the plug he hud In Ills pistol pocket, and then begun on him. But there's no use going Into details. Such things nre not cheerful. They gathered him up out of thv sawdust nnd put him In n iinll- keg and curried him away, but he did not ' speuk iignln. Life was (julto .eitir.et. • Whether It was the nervous shock that killed him or the concussion of the cold saw against Ills liver Jio one ever knew. ' The mill shut down a couplo of hours so. - that the head sawyer could tile his saw, nnd then work wns resumed once more. We should learn from this never .to lonn on H buzz saw when It mnvetli Itself nrlght_ A new crib Is building nt Dunlnp rco' lighthouse. .'•J'er/i«n» tlwmn tt JMlkit.usiy tdlhtl .mug atine In Hit ICoi'M."—The National, N, Y.
