A man was met who had made the up

Several houses were seen to be started
from their foundations, and some were
partially tipped over. Many were under

of securing some views Of the flood in that
city. Leaving Augusta about 10 O'Clock,
he plowcd his miry way down river, his
wheels sinking deep In the muddy roads.
On reaching Hallowell he pulled up at
the edge of small lake in Water street,
and was informed that he could proceed
no further in that direction, unless he

yards down the main street to the town.

Serving Wines With Dinner.

The New York Sun gives these direc-
tions for serving wines with course din
ner:
Serve sherry with the soup With tho
hsh chablis or sauterne is nearly always
served, and with entrees have claret.
Champagne, hook or moselle comes with
the roast. Port wine is usually served
with the cheese course and burgundy with
the dessert. Serve red wines at the same
temperature as the room. White wines
should be slightly chilled, but never nut
ice into wine. Do not fill glass to the
top. Serve the least celebrated wines at
the commencement of d dinner, rcseryipp

TIE NEW WAY TO TIE ! BROAD SCARF.
are probably half inch broader than tho
middle The fashion of tying them so
tightly has disappeared along with the
style that made it necessary. Tied only
tightly enough to hold firmly in place, its
effect is best
Men who wear these ties rarely take the
trouble to have them made the size OF
their necks, but this can readily be done.
The usual fault with them is their exces-
sive length. Now it is customary to have
the ties made TO correspond with the sizs
Of the collar.
These ties are made Of different colors,
and in the Spitalfield silks which have
been popular in all kinds of .neckwear for
several years past. 1t might be suggested
that they aI most effective when made
in goods ornamented with small pattern.
The birdseye, polka dot, or small figure
designs are smarter than others and those
in black, bluo and red, with the pattern
in white or any other combination of col
ors are more effective than these in the
neutral tints in gray, green or brown.
The vagaries in mems fashions are not
great but they are marked to the men
who follow such matters intent to detect
the latest wrinkle The New York sun,
the source Of the foregoing, says that the
most conspicuous style this year has come
in the manner Of wearing the plastron or
ascot scarf. These scarfs are tied now in
such way that instead of being crossed
As they formerly were the two ends fall
straight The usual scarf can be tied in
this way, and those scarfs without lining
or padding are best adapted to it.
For several years this fashion has been
popular in London, but it has been notice
able in New York this winter for tho first
time The process of tying begins in tho
usual way but tho two ends of the scarf
are so arranged that they fall parallel ana
are caught by pin.
The Ascot scarfs made in London use
an entire square of the silk, although one
quarter of that amount would be all that
is necessary These are naturally more
adapted to the new style of tying the scarf,
although any Ascot is capable of being
readily worn in this form. Ii is growing
in popularity, but has by no means sun,
planted the old fashioned Ascot, which is
as well established fashion rs the insti-
tuition of wearinga necktie. This year the
scarfs have increased considerably in siZs
and crowd the collar of the waistcoat.
