The Ice Business.

AUGUSTA, Oct 2.-The injury to the ice
business on the Kennebec river occasoned
by the remarkably cold weather of. this sea-
son is matter for serious consideration. AT
this time there are only some half dozen
vessels loading on the river being at the
Cedar Grove, Knickerbocker and Haynes g.
Dewitt houses, whereas in average years
there should be thirty. Several firms which
had contracted for ice early in the season
countermanded a portion of their orders.
The outcome will be that cold weather will
find more than the usual amount of ice

Gains in Connecticut.

HARTFORD, Conn, Oct. 2.-The returns
from the town elections were watched today
with no little interest by politicians, as indi-
eating in no uncertain way the general drift
of sentiment around the State. The Repub-
licans have right to feel highly encouraged
by the result of the days work. Such
changes as have taken place are in the great
majority of cases favorable to them.
The city of South Norwalk heretofore
largely Democratic, elects a Republican
mayor and five Of the six cOuncilmen. The
Democratic majority in Meriden has drop

was small throughout the State, owing to
the bad weather. In most of the towns the
chief contest was on the license question. A
large majority of the small towns, under the
local option law, voted for no license.
The Telephone Case Too Pressing.
COLUMBUS, Oct. Alt seems probable that
Judge Thurman will issue no letter Of ac-
ceptance owing to his speech of acceptance
ID the notification committee and the ex-
tended expression Of his views In his
speeches during the campaign. The Judge
has for long time had in mind what he
would say In case he should write letter,
but his time has been so fully occupied it
has been impossible for him to put it on
paper. He has had considerable business to
attend to and all his other time has been
taken by his callers. who keep coming
steadily at all hours. This week the Judge
has, to some extent, shut the door on his
callers to give time to complete his prepara-
tion of the argument in the telephone cases
and while he has not stated that he would
not write a letter of acceptance, Judge
Thurman has frequently remarked that be
does not see the necessity. The statement
of the early publication of such letter has
been made several times but in no case has
the Judge stated positively when it would
be ready.

Cleveland Knew it Last May.

Major Leydecker accompanied the inyesti-
eating party ON the inspection tour Of the
new aqueduct. AT every point was found
evidence of bad work. 1t is said that $780,
900 was needlessly expended for a new reser-
voir, owing to the incompetence of the army
engineers.
A charge has been made that Major Ley
decker's father secured the rejection of the
lowest bid, and had the contract awarded to
bidder whose estimates were $4,000 high

The President is severely criticised for his
inaction in the matter. A committee of citi-
zens called on him last May, and protested
against continuance of the poor work, but
he paid no attention to them.

President Linculn's Rehearsal.

President Lincoln felt very awkward when
he first began to receive ut the White House.
He had no heart for feasting and dancing
when the millions of both north and south
were mourning their dead. His wife, how
ever, dressed in the height of fashion, and
she wore her gown at the lowest decollete.
President Lincoln went through rehearsal
tho evening before the reception and learned
where he was to stand, who were to come,
and how he should receive them. He was
much oppressed by the diplomats when the
reception went off, and the army and navy
officers rather overpowered him. MIR. Watt,
then the White House gardener, says that he
came to his wife before the public were ad.
mitted end asked her for bite of bread and
bowl Of milk He took one of these in
each hand, and partook of them standing,
before he returned to his handshaklng.
When he back to the Blue room he said:
Snow let the people in. The state ceremo.
MES are over, and ave will have good time. =
And the people did come in, for they liked
no one better than Abe Lincoln and at one
of his receptions it is said that teamster,
driving an army wagon, stopped his mules IN
front of the White House and rushed in past
the guards His muddy boots came up over
his pantaloons, and he wore a faded blue
army coat and carried whip in bis hand
He got to the door of the Blue room and said;
81 want to see Old Abe. Where Is heF'
The president heard him and cheerily re.
piled: Here am; come right in" And
with hearty shake CT the hand he gave q
more cordial greeting than had been given
to either officer or diplomat.-Frank G.. Car

were exceedingly tame on the other islands,
where perhaps no man had ever been seen
before. Having reprovisioned the store on
the main island, and provided the
two inhabitants with all things needful,
and having thoroughly explored this part,
the ship sailed for the southern harbor,
called Carnley harbor 1t has an entrance
between magnificent cliffs, over 1000 feet
high, and about mile apart. 1t was not till
the ship had steamed five OF six miles in that
she could get soundings, and then it was
in twenty fathoms; here she anchored in
perfectly land locked harbor. The next day
they visited the cairD, which they found by
beacon on it, about mile and half from
the ship. All the stores deposited in the
cairn were spoiled; the blankets were in small
pieces, the cookies pills were in CONCEALED
masses, the biscuit, sugar, tea and coffee all
spoiled. They repaired the cairn and replen-
ished it with stores and provisions; having
finished their work, they started once moro
to Campbell island, southeast of the Auck-
land Islands Here, again, they replenlshed
the stores, and left a notice in a bottle to
| record their visit; this had also been done ut
the other cairns. The ship then returned to
New Zealand, having performed her mission.
The Auckland islands were first discovered
in 1906, and were named after Lord Auck-
land. The islands were granted to the Messrs.
| Enderby, who obtained charter i'll lS49,
but the company was broken up in 1852. The
soil of the islands is very productive, but
their remoteness from civilization prec' DIES
the possibility of their ever being inhabited.

When Ferdinand Ward was sent to Sing
Sing for ten years there were scores of per-
sons, among whom were some intimate
friends of Ward, who said that he would not
live year. Wards appearance favored this
prophecy, for he was thin, with colorless face,
round shoulders and narrow chest.
"He has been used to high living" it was
said, land luxurious quarters, and rough
prison fare and confinement will kill him."
If Wards friends knew as much then as
they have learned since they would have re-
ceived the news of his conviction and SEN
tence with joy. 1t was his high manner OF
living that was proving disastrous to his
health. Ward now looks as well and strong
as any man of his slender build can look.
There is uster in his eyes that is new to
them, and "a lightness in his step that he did
not possess when no was free.-New York

Only q moment more
Shall feel the trembling kisses
OF the lips that adore.
Once again with tender passion
Thou wilt press me TO thy breast,
Then leave me to my sorrow,
Because thou deem'st II best
Oh. In this hour could wish
Thy noble strength would fail thee;
For then, perchance, my wanton heart
Less truly might bewail thee.
And even though knew that then
Thy faith and trust were broken
The shattered relics still would be-

in riding up and down past Lincoln park,

always some one gazing at the Lincoln mon
ument, no matter whether it is fair or a
blizzard prevails. Sometimes solitary per-
son only is to be seen, but rarely less than
three or four are present Whether it is ad-
miration of great work of art or homage
to the memory of Americas greatest man, l
don't pretend to say; but am certain that
no. other monument possesses the same inter
