Most of his time was | spent along the Susquehanna, near which his parents lived When the June flood came, people ym all parts of the country hurried to | the river to see the sight Mary Yerge: | and a boy, son of the farmer v m! she lived, loitered on the water's edge the day when the water had reached its highest mark. Few per. | gons had tarried so long. but she and the bov forgot the time while looking out on the swift waters at a boom log| catcher.

Prosale Facts About Logs. Two hundred million feet of these huge boom logs are now lying along the banks and are covering the islands of the river | from Williamsport to the Chesapeak, bay. Each log contains the privat mark of its owner, and agents of the exchange have been out since the high water receded identifying them and tak ing account of stock. The “‘Algerines’ | and those on whose land the logs lodged | when the flood went down, are holding them for the salvage money which an! old state law allows. In the courts of | all the counties bordering on the river the Lumberman's exchange has entered ¥uits against the persons to recover theh Properly upon the payment of ten cents or each log, but the *““Algerines” are making a hard fight against the ex change, on the ground that the law gives them authority to claim fifty cents, In one of the counties 175 log catchers are | included in one proceeding, and they have engaged all the lawyers in tha! county to defend them. In some of the counties the exchange has made amica- | ble settlements, and portable saw mills | are now going up at different place | along the river to cut the logs int | lumber, i Reminiscences of the Flood. It was a novel sight when the log: | came down the river, and they causec untold destruction in their passage They carried with them bridges, fences | houses and barns, and many of the larg: island farms were so completely covered | with the piles of logs that one conlc! not touch Bis foot on a spot of ground. | The owners’ marks are branded on them as they are on Mexican ponies and oun | the ranchmen’s cattle, On Monday following the Saturday when the flood was at its height and | after the bridges had been swept away two big logs came down the river, un molested in their couse and with a. much speed as a steam yacht, At thi! lace thousands of persons lined the nks of the river, but their attentior was not especially attracted by the log until an old riverman called out | “There's a pig in there.” All eye turned toward the scene, and sure enough in about the center of the big! boom was an old pig pen. The old fish erman’s cry was taken up by hundred. of people on the shore, and two young log catchers headed their boat towarc ithe log. When they pulled up alongside of the logs one of the young men jumpeo over the side of the pen and awakened a jug poricer from its peaceful slumber Its loud squealings were heard by those on the bank of the river, and a long anc cheer went up from the multi : . The young men landed both log and pig about a mil. below the point where the riverman started what he t was a huge joke, and they stil hold their prize, | logs NEWS BREVITIES The * Paris, The Black Diamond's ownar is pre- ring a claim for damages against the Tnited States Miss Maggie Kuhl, of Scranton, Pa., was married on what Is believed to be her death bed to William Griftiths Four dead bodies were found in Bitter Root valley, Montana, with no further their taking off tham bullet i their backs Noble passed Friday in Philadelphia, going thence to where he expects trial of Boulanger commenced mn Be night che to spend retary week In the yacht races at Newport Sea Fox won Katrina in the sloop class The funeral of Felix Pyat, the cele- brated Communist, took place at Paris without especial incident, Fanny Davenport and George Alfred Townsend, known to fame as /'Gath,” arrived in New York {rom Europe, The Fenian Leonard, is dead in Paris.
