The river at this point is frozen from
shore to shore and presented n very pictur-
esque scene yesterday. The ice was in
splendid condition and crowds ofmen and
boys dotted its CLASSY surface. Many
came early, and some often for o spin on
the ice. The Georgetown small boy was
there and stayed there all day. Some of
the larger boys struck out for Roslyn and
after brief visit returned with q knowing
''smile" and said they felt warmer. The
Virginia ferry manages to keep u small
channel open for the passage of its boat,
which is a great convenience to people
living on the other side of the river, es-
pecially at this season. An incident oc-
CURED on Saturday which will serve TO
illustrate the great inconvenience the peo.
pie on the Virginia side are subjected to
by the delay in finishing the Aqueduct
Bridge. The ferry tug had to be with
drawn temporarily for repairs and travel
was suspended entirely by this transit.
There were quite number living on the
other side whose necessities compelled
them to reach the city at given time, so
they started and crossed the bridge on n
plank only foot wide, and that covered
with snow and ice. It was a hazardous
thing to do, but they made the trip safely.
