A Shedding Experience.

The story comes up from below The
city about a man who attempted to cross
the Androscoggin on the ice and was
swamped, together with his team. he
had been hauling wood across the river
for several days and had just one more
load to haul
As the water was up on the face of thb
ice he first thought to put off hauling it.
but the thought that perhaps there would
not be another chance TO haul it made
him go across. When he started back.
he thought be wouldn't go in the same
track where he had hauled the rest. SO
he went little above.
The ice began to crack slowly when he
got to the middle. Quick as a fash he
unfastened the two tugs and one hold
back. Then he struck the horse violent
y with the whip At the same time the
sledload of wood went through with q
crash. He commenced to sink with it.
but when the horse had been struck he
jumped ahead, and breaking the off hold
back jerkcd the man off Of the load an6
dragged him to the shore with the reins.
There he stopped, and the man got up.
When he looked back the top Of tie
wood and the shafts could be seen stick
ing out of the hole in the ice. The water
was not deer. He says that he would
rather lose the wood than go near the
hole again. It is frozen in now Lewis.

,1N the senate, ON the 27th, majority reports
were made by Mr.. Hoar in favor of admission
to their seats Of three senators appointed by the
governors of Montana. Wyoming and Washing
ton. and soon after the senate proceeded 20
executive business.

the election for officers of the senate. W. E.
Cox of North Carolina. as secretary: Richard
d. Bright, of Indiana, as sergeant-at-arms. and
Rev. Mr.. Milburn as chaplain, coupled with
conditions that they shall not enter upon the
discharge OF their duties until the 30th Of June,
up to which time the present tncumbents are
to remain in ONCE, were offered and went over
for one day. The case Of Senator Roach, OF
North Dakota, was brought before the senate
In the shape OF q resolution offered by Mr..
Hoar directing the committee on privileges
and elections to investigate the allegations OF
criminal embezzlement and to report the facts
and what is the duty of the senate thereto.
This resolution also went over, the senate ad-
journing after a session Of only thirty-hve min
utes.
In the senate, on the 2oth. the report OF the
committee on privileges and elections in favor
OF the three senators appointed by the govern
ors of the states Of Montana. Wyoming and
Washington was taken up, and the discussion
which followed indicated concurrence with the
views OF the minority Of the committee ad-
verse to the admission Of the three senators.
The question went over, the senate soon after
going into executive session.
in the senate, on the 3Oth the session was de-
voted almost wholly to the debate on the Ques-
tion of admission Of senators appointed by the
governors OF the states OF Montana, Wyoming
and Washington, after the legislatures of those
states had adjourned without making regular
elections Mr.. Mitchell a member Of the COM
mittee on elections, spoke for nearly three

the committee, which favors admission, but
confessed in the close of his speech that the
die was cast and that the majority report
would be adopted. The senate then went into

TACOMA, Wash, April LA fore
runner OF the biggest scandal IN the
customs service that ever happened on
Puget sound was the seizure OF the
Chinese on the Haytien Republic in
Portland a few days ago. The seizure
OF the Chinese for being illegally in the
country was an important matter in
itself, especially as the removal of
two local customs inspectors fol-
lowed. This, however. is but the
beginning of the end. Within few
days it will be shown that the owners
of this steamer were in collusion with
high officials of the treasury depart
ment in carrying on gigantic SNUG
Cling business. The last time the
Haytien Republic was in Vancouver

Final Decision In the Evangelical Church
War In the Illinois Supreme Court.
OTTAWA, I'LL, April 1.-The deci-
sion of Judge Sheppard in the church
case of Schweiker VS.. Husser was af-
frmed by the supreme court. This
practically settles the Evangelical war
which has been going on for sew
eral years in Illinois, Indiana,
Ohio, Pennsylvania and other states.
Schweiker belongs to the Dubbs
faction and Husser is an Escherite, and
both have been trying to preside over
the Noble Street church, Chicago. The
Escherites, under Bishops Escher and
Bowman, who seeded from the Illi-
nois conference in 1890, have won de-
cided victory in this case, and the
many other similar cases, now pending
will no doubt be settled in the same
manner

WHY IT WAS STOPPED.

The Halt In the Gate City Bank Investi.
CATION was to Protect Depositors.
New YORK, April IA special to
the Sun from Atlanta, Ca, says: The
stopping of the investigation into the
affairs of the Gate City national bank
by order of Attorney-General Olney
has been explained. The grand jury
was about to find true bills against
two officials of the bank in ad-
dition to Defaulter Redwine.
There is now nearly $780, in the
banks vaults, collected since the bank
closed. This amount, with other as
sets, would enable the depositors to
get dollar for dollar if the business was
properly managed. The indictment of
any more bank officials would have inn
periled the banks business financially
and the reopening would have been
impossible. This would work great
injury to the depositors.
