The force of an ice shove is illus trated
by an incident related IN Montreal
paper, when a house and family were
swept away: "The man and woman
and their two children were in the house,
which was al old French style affair.
The house had foundations and walls
three feet Thick in places. 1t was about
IL O clock, aud the family were at their
dinner, when suddenly the iUe com.
menred to move. The upper ice struck
the sheet of shore ice that sent il like
huge knife up the bank, scraping all be-
fore it. Before the family had time TO
escape the edge OF the knife had struck
the house. 1t cut it clean away and left
not a soul alive OF the entire family.
Hardly one stone remained upon an-
other, so heavy was the crash OF the ice
upon the house.

MR. QUAY AFTER A SCALP.
A Report That He Wants the Place of
Chief Clerk johnson.

The rumor that the Senate contemplates a
reorganization of the greater portion of its
force is by no means new one. For some years
past the cry of wolf has been regularly raise D
and has generally been laughed at with con-
siderable unaninity. Somebody yelled ''wolf'
In connection with the Office of scargeant-at-
arms during the early part of tho session Just
closed aid, as usual, he was laughed at and his
warning dsregarded. Then came the wolf.
Col. Canaday was the victim and the vacancy was
filed by the election OF Judge Valentine And
now comes the story that Senator Quay, un-
daunted by his failure TO put a follower in Col
Canadays place. proposes TO make a fight for
at least one adnerent To do this with auy
show for sucress he will have TO remove some-
body, and this somebody is said to be Chief
Clerk johnson. More than one attempt has
been made during the session TO shake the
Minneapolis mans grip on the Office. but none
OF them have been anything but failures.
In a general way tho majority of Senators
are not pleased at the manner in which the
reading is done in the Senate. and with this as
lever Mr.. Quay proposes to Gus: either Mr..
Johnson or McGilfry. OF the two he thinks
MIR. johnson the more easily shaken off his
perch. for that gentleman is from the north
west, and the northwestern and western Seua-
tors, with perhaps two exceptions, have tacitly
agreed to stand by Mr.. Quay when he next tries
TO lind an Office for one OF his friends. The
Pennsylvanian took his defeat in the sergeant
alarms fight in very good part and won over
good deal Of influence in that way. Mr..
Quay will not yet divulge the name of his can
didate. He Is giving an imitation of Bre'r
Rabbit, usual. and when the Senate comes
together in December he will explode the little
