BIDDY,s CHARMED LIFE.
Hens Exciting Ride on Ice Cakes
In the Maine Freshet.

Hens Exciting Ride on Ice Cales
In the Maine Freshet.
From the Lewiston Evening Journal.
One Of the most exciting things that oc-
Cured recently was the going over the
falls Of hen on a cake of ice. Probably
1900 people saw the hen in Auburn and
Lewiston.
1t was in the forenoon and the ice was
running in large cakes over the falls. As
cne cake approached the dam a living
object was seen moving on It. Some one
cried out that it was baby. others that
1t was a dog. When 1t sped. eddying and
turning. by Little Island, those on the
Auburn end Of the Maine Central railroad
bridge thought that they discerned a hen
sitting on the ice. and as it drew nearer 1t
and seemed rather to enjoy life. As the
cake on which she sat went over the first
undulation Of the west end OF the dam che
cast her weather eye up at the folks on
the pier as much as to say: why don't
you folks come and take a ride with me?"
That hen is a goner!' said one who saw
the cake Of ice strike another and go to
pieces In the rips below the falls. 80
But Biddy calmly futtered ever onto the
bigger piece and rode on. A great crowd
came rushing down to see her fate In the
thrasbing caldron OF West Pitch.
Nov she's as good as dead" and it did
seem to worry her. for when the cake OF
ice rode up over the top Of the Old Gentle
man of the Falls end plunged downward
into the mass of flying spray and foam the
hen gave surprised sort cf call and spread
out her short wings and flew cackling over
the dashing waters and seething foam. out
and down into the eddy below the falls.
where she lit on the nearest ice cake and
sailed calmly on Right under the Grand
Trunk bridge. says Mr.. Nelson A. Dodge
of Whipple street. she lost her footing on
the cake she was on and got into the water.
but she fluttered and foundered on to an
other cake. and in a minute or two dis
appeared below the island.
THAT hen will live" said the man who
saw it go over the fails. 'If she doesn't
go near enough to the shore to get off she
will be picked up at sea by some passing

As Foe.
The offensive phase Of the ship will con-
charges. The main battery is composed of
four twelve-inch and eight eight-inch
breech-loading rifles mounted in pairs in six
turrets; the secondary battery consists Of
six four-inch rapid-fire guns, while twenty
six-pounder, four one-pounder and two gat-
ling guns constitute an auxiliary force.
The BUR twelve-inch guns are housed in
their long bodies out through walls of
hardened steel fifteen inches thick, while
the mechanisms that turn the turrets
through their arc of 80 degrees, load, de-
hind the protection of the barbettes seven
teen inches through. Concentrated upon
a foe on either side, the four great guns
would send forth a mass of a ton and a
quarter of hardened steel driven by 1,72O
pounds Of powder, leaving the rifles with
q pent-up force equal to the energy needed
to raise the whole ship, crew and all, to
a height of eight feet In one second
From the four smaller turrets five inches
thick, firing through an arc Of 40 degrees
and revolving within barbettes three inches
heavier, the efght-inch rifles can fire shell
of 25O pounds, capable of passing unde-
formed through eight inches of steel four
thousand yards away and with a possible
bombarding range of one mile for every
inch of caliber.
Four of the four-inch rapid fire guns are
placed on the main deck, sheltered by arm
ored sponsons and thick steel splinter bulk
heads, while the two remaining are mount

these rifles and the smaller rapid-fire guns

But the Rules of the Store Were

From the Chicago Daily Tribune.
A man with bundle under his arm made
his way to the gas and oil stove counter in
one Of the big department stores the other
day and addressed the young woman in
charge:
Here is a ten-foot piece Of flexible gas
pipe got from you last Thursday" he said.
Il would like to exchange 1t for longer
one and pay the difference"
There's only one longer size in stock"
she replied. land it's only two feet longer.
What did you have to pay for this?'
Seven cents foot"
well, It's two cents cheaper now. We
reduced the price this morning"
''Then a twelve-foot piece would be only
sixty cents?"

We'll. ought to pay the ten cents differ
ence Just the same. All want is"
That's all right. Just take it to the ex-
change department. on the next floor, and
they'll give you an exchange check

you got it and the young lady will make the

He took it back
The saleSgirl at the gas pine counter
wrapped up the tWelve-foot piece. made out

sent the two slips of paper to the cashier.
