straint," to Henry b. Anthony or George
Rivers, and finally concludes that the thought
must DO credited TO Anthony and the Ian
guage to Rivers, the language being too brutal
for Anthony.
IL shows the change that has taken place in
Rhode Island journalism that the question
should be SO settled. The Telegram cannot
make Rhode Island history in that way.
The phrase ante-dates both Rivers and
Anthony. Ii originated with BENJAMIN
Hazard. a distinguished Newport lawyer, who
represented his town for thirty-one success

assembly. He used IL In report made by him
in 1899 to the general assembly on a proposed
extension of the suffrage, and has always had
the credit, or discredit, according as men re-
gard the matter attaching to it.
II Is true that the phrase, as often happens
with familiar quotations, has gained i'm the
mouths OF the people brevity which IL did
not originally possess, the words "men who
came uninvited" being substituted for a fuller
specification of virtually the same import.
Mr.. Hazard was a powerful and caustic
writer and speaker, and like Dean Swift,
whom he greatly admired, never sugar coated
his utterances for fear Of offending those who
thought differently from him. CIvIs.

piscovered an Ice Mine.



LyuChbUrE. Va. June 22.-ln the north
side Of Stone Mountain, six miles from
the mouth OF Stony Creek, in Scott coun-
ty. has been discovered a natural ice
house on q grand scale One of the old
settlers first discovered it about 1850, but
owing 10 the fact that the land on which
il is situated could not be bought. he re
fused to tell its whcrca bouts, and would
only take ice from it in case of sickness.
He died without revealing the secret to
even his own family, and but for a party
of "seug' diggcrs entering the region IL
might have remained "a secret for genera
tions. asst is situated in an unfrequented
part of the mountain.
The ice was only protected from the
rays of the sun by a thick growth Of
moss resembling that seen dangling from
the oaks Of Louisiana and Texas. It's
formation was after the fashion Of a coal
vein. being few inches thick in some
places. while several feet in others. The
formation indicates that it had been
spread over the surface in a liquid state
and then CONCEALED. BY what process it
freezes or was frozen is a matter of con
lecture at this stage Of investigation.
Some think that il was formed in the
winter and had been protected since by a
dense growth of moss which covers it,
while the more plausible theory is that
beneath the bed is situated a great natur-
al laboratory whose function is a fOrma-
ton of ether, and the process Of freezing
goes steadily on through the heat as well
as the cold. The bed covers one acre.
