electric locomotive—the most powerful in all the
world— and that personal attention which is a fea
ture of “Milwaukee” service.

house from the waters edge, (left five
but will haVe to take them down to
make a good Job of lt.) it came with
such a rush and roar that the island
was singing seemingly,- and the drift,
that came In did some of the most
uncanny things, Jor instance, about
a month ago, I* eut a log in two on
the easterly side of the island, it
was too heavy to handle as one log,
hud started to tow the two in, one
roped behind the other, in coming
around the point I met a choppy sea
apd the line between the loga parted,
I came on with the one log, going
back for the other in about a ha.lf an
hour, I couldn’t find it, although I
rowed clear around the island, and
since that time I have kept looking
for thet log, not for the great value
but I "felt peeved that I should loose
it. in the way that I did. Well at the
high tide here came that log drifting
in, and from the wrong way, or op
posite direction from where I left it.
Another log that I had thought of
bringing ‘in, when I got to it, came
drifting in. Juet then I was too busy
to tie it up. thinking, ‘well it is safe,
and I’ll get it later on, It didn’t stop
but Just made a tour of the lagoon,
then went out and is now within twen
ty feet of where it waB before it start
ed on its journey. It is so high up
now, that it will be a long time before
another tide is high enough to float
it. I have four little friends, that are
pretty regular for their meals, two
jaybirds, and two magpies, how they
talk and scold if there Is any delay.
The magpies are getting a little fresh
tho, ,for they want to come in and
help get the dinner and I never did
'like to be watched when I was trying
to cook.
