Early Morning Ice Wagons in Demand.
The thermometer having subsidized
into the "ninetios," the ice man is
thought more of than any one else
about this time. As ice is q luxury,
almost Indispensable To the house
hold, the question of its timely de-
livery has become one of apprecia-
tive Importance. Many heads Of
families residing in Annapolis have
requested us TO suggest to our worthy
ice dealers that as ice water is most
desirable at early morn, as also dur
lng The retiring hours of night, they
would perform a most gracious act if
.hey would arrange TO deliver their
ice At on earlier hour Ia the morning,
y also a later hour in the evening"

= leaa'e their patrons in the city, in
