Prospects for an Early Open
ing.

An outlook from the north shore
81 Lake Elie does not present any
Publications Of al early opening Of
that lake With the aid Of a tele-
scope from . high bluff near Port
Stanley DO water j. visible, and the
ice FIVE miles from shore i Of great
CT thickness than ever previously
known. The average month for
the lake opening between Buffalo
and Chicago is April, II hariD., oc-
CURED during that month since
ls"1 forty-iOur time. Tie past
vinter compares favorably with
tLo-e q ls43, ISIS and l>72.
Navigate opened at Buffalo IL
thOse years Nay 9Th, May "a and
May 9Th, respectively. There have
been tn-O instances where the OPEN
ing Eas deferred until June, yiz.,
1907, June Ilth, and 1911, June
4.
On Lake Ontario the movement
Of vessels invariably takes place at
q much earlier period than on the
other lakes. To the westward Of
this point Lakes Huron and NicLi-
gan are more heavily encountered
with ice than ever previously
known, from which il may be in
ferred that the passage through the
Straits need not be looked for al
certainty no earlier period than last
year. which was on April 2sth.
Within the past twenty years there
ha4 been but little difference be-
tween Buffalo and Mackinaw
Strait a. regards the opening Of
navigation, although during that
period Buffalo was more often the
first point which was open.
In rs both points were accessi-
lie 20 vessels on the same date,
May ~. Until the ice becomes
weakened by warm rains and mild
southerly breezes, the heavy March
winds, such as recently swept over
the country, have bat little or no
effect towards breaking it up.
From the above facts lake ineD
may draw their own inferences.-

A MaDistee correspondent of the
Free preSs, under date Of March
9Th, writes as follows: Youi cor
respondent occupied the same seat
in the stage from Pentwater 20
Manistee yesterday with Capt. Da-
vid Cochrane, Of the propeller Mes
senger, concerning which Of late
there has been 20 many stories
going the rounds Of the papers.
The vessel is now off Little Point
Sauble some ten or twelve miles,
in solid field Of ice extending ia
all directions as far as the eye can
reach. In fact, Lake Michigan
appears 10 be almost entirely COW
cred with ice. The boat left Grand
Haven on the 10Th Of January, /
think, with weather fair. The
captain says he had gone but a
short distance before the ice be-
came too solid to break through,
and the boat was put about TO re-
turn 10 Grand Haven, but a field
al ice bad pushed in along the
shore and the boat was soon sliut
in on all sides. They had on board
coffee, sugar, tea, rice and dried
apples, and fuel enough to do their
cooking and keep them warm.
Completely shut IN, they drifted
with the fields of ice for several
days, in sight of land, going ashore
for what they needed. Once the
ice broke off from the shore, and
hoping IL he could get into the
open water once more he could
reach Muskegon or Grand Haven,
the captain and all the crew set to
work cutting n channel into her
stem. For fofty-eight hours they
wsrked inres~antly. and finally
