BOATING THROUGH SOLID ICE
The Ice-Crushing Steamboats, That
Cross the Straits of Mackinac.


The most wonderful ice-crushing steamboat
in the world is built to carry trains Of cars
across the Straits OF Mackinac, from Mackinaw

tho Duluth, South Shore and Atlantic Rail-
road, along the southern shores of Lake Sli.
periOr. In those straits the Ice in winter is
piodigiously thick and when there is not
solid bridge Of clear blue ice over the water
there Is apt to be wedge OF drift ice. The
ferry boats that carry the heavy trains across
this piece of water are obliged to he powerful
icehg htrrs and they are built in peculiar
way to do their fighting. Their bows, which
are as solid and strong as naval ram, are built
to slope inward and downward, so that The
boats climb up on the ice and beat or crush it
down. The enormous weight Of the newest
boat, the Ste Marie. which is 100000 pounds.
Will crush any Ice that 1t rests Upon. Under the
bow Is a propeller screw, which not only pulls
the boat ahead, but sucks The water out from
beneath the ice in order that the ice may be the
more easily broken. Then again. the screw
sucks the broken Ice away and casts 1t behind
as the boat pushes its way along.
ms new boat cost more than a third of a
million OF dollars. She can carry eighteen
loaded cars on her three tracks, and can ma e
15 miles an hour. Her side planks are six
inches thick, and the sides of the vessel are
nearly three feet thick toward the bottom of
the hull. She is all coated with qnsrter-inch
steel except at the bow and stern where the
ends % the boat are almost solid timber TO
make batierlne-ram OF her. Her bow screw
Is smaller than that in the stern, but with both
at work she can make eight miles an hour
through solid blue ice two feet thick, and when
she encounters soft or drift ice ten feet thick
hurl II out of the way without it greatly imped-
Ing her progress.

Chapter of Accidents.

Two accidents happened in Paint town
snip, last Thursday, a coincidence Of which
was that the persons affected were both at
tending the same religious meeting Jacob
Blough was on his way TO the loye-feast at
The Dunkard church, al Berkey's. and stopped
awhile 10 look al the men at work at Daniel
Holsopple's saw mill. While standing there
a pulley broke, throwing a piece of the
machinery in such a way as 10 strike Mr..
Blough on the eft hand, nearly cutting the
member off.
In the evening, after the services we're over
at the church, Mrs. Samuel Knavle, with
Others, was walking along the road to her
home, when her husbands brother, jacob
Knayle. came driving along with his wagon.
The night was somewhat dark, and for that
reason, probably, Ms. Knayle did not notice
the approach OF the team until it knocked
her down, when the horses tramPed over
her and the wagon ran over her body. She
was quite seriously hurt, but is recovering.
Another accident happened in the same
neighbOrhOOd on Tuesday of this week.
Joseph +. Miller fell through a shed on his
farm and alighted in such y manner as to
break his right arm. A coincidence in his
case is that q year ago he met with similar
accident and broke finger on his left hand.
