TUESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY


A SINGULAR CAsE.-There is considerable
excitement in asuberb some miles out, over
the death of A. D. Smith Last Monday he
died, to allappearences, after calmly bidding
adieu to his heartbroken wife. he was then
dressed for the grave, and on Tuesday pre-
oarations were made for his burial. In the
midst of the services humping in the coffin
was heard, the cover was burst Oft, and Mr..
Smith sat up, causing great CONSERVATION
and dismay. He was at once removed to his
bed at home, and in few hours ne seemed
none the worse for his strange experience.
Mr.. Smith says he went to Heaven and saw
many white spirits, some of them friends
whom he had known on earth. They shook
their heads in answer to his questions, ana
pointed to big book lying open. he iooS-
ed at it and saw written there the names OF
his wife, himself and his children who we're
alive. His name, he said, seemed partially
erased He told wondrous story OF his
other experiences in that strange world, and
lis recital drew scores of curiosity-seekers to
his fone. On Wednesday night he sudden.
" called out: Il see them" and fell back
dead. His wife was completely prostrated
at this terrible ending 20 her hopes. Medi.
cal aid was sum moned and an electric bat
terry applied, but the doctors finally decided
that the man was indeed dead this time.
Last night the grief-striken wife isft her old
Georgia home near Atlanta, with the body.

ICE IN THE KENrEHEc.
And Prophecies as to the time Of it,
Breaking up.

Seeing the inroads made in the ice in the
river by the emptyings of several culverts
Wednesday, the scribe started out yesterday
in search of information.
when is the ice to leave the rivers" he
asked of we'll known citizen who was
summing himself with the air of weather
prophet. Well Tin betting the cigars twill
be all gone by the first of April"
Elm your man. was the ready response
of a gentleman standing near. You'll no,
see it broken up before the middle of April y
The next gentleman questioned was Mr.
W. j. Tuck the genial Agent for the Star
of the East
You ask question not to be answered
very satisfactorily. If this warm weather
continues it will y ork wonders The river
has risen about two feet and will probably
rise at least another foot before night.
Moreover the water will be muddy and con-
sequently will wear away the ice faster than
clear water. In addition to that item in the
journal this morning about the ice leaving
the Penobscot river in 1871 on March 18th,
you might say. that the ice left the Kennebec
fully as early. The boat made three trips
that month"
The next person called upon looked at the
scribe rather seornfully as he remarked
''You newspaper fellows may be able to
convict Stain and Cromwell and then acquit
EN- afterwards but the ice will stay in the
old Kennebec till the good Lord is ready to
have it go"
The simple faith of the old gentleman put
stop to further inquiry.
But later it was learned that the river had
worn through the ice in mid channel opposite
the Arsenal.
