The prospects on the Hudson are
always carefully watched by the Maine
dealers; and with a light crop there. as
sometimes happens. there would. of
course. be a rush in this State to put up
ice as there is a demand for just about
so much each year, and somebody must
supply it, Harvesting has been going on
on the Hudson this winter and the out
look Is that there will be no especial
shortage. The ice on the Hudson is re-
ported to have attained a thickness of
twelve or more inches and the experts
say they don't want it any thicker for
expeditions and profitable gathering, nor
for handling and marketing. The quail
ity at most points is said to be excellent.

Inc proposed ordinance relating t.
contracts with the city was taken III
and indefinitely postponed. 1t is al
follows:
Be 1t ordained by the city council of the
| city of Augusta. as follows:
| CHAPTER IL 4
section s-No member Of the city coun-
eli. no subordinate city officer and no
member of any board charged with eX-
| penditure of any money appropriated hy
| the city council. shall be Interested d.
rectiy or indirectly. In any contract en-
eered into by or in behalf of the city of
| Augusta. and all contracts made in vio-
iation hereof are void. The city treasurer
Is hereby expressly forbidden to pay any
| money out of the city treasury on ac-
| count of any such contract made after
the approval of this ordinance.
This ordinance was introduced by
the alderman from Ward at last
months meeting and took its frs,
reading. When the vote was taken on
indefinite postponement. Alderman
Lane was not present. When he came
in. about o'clock. he moved to re-
| consider the motion. He stated that
the proposed ordinance was an exact
fccpy OF one Portland found it neces-
sary to adopt about a year ago. and he
had received letter from the city
| clerk of Portland. recently. in which
| it was stated that the ordinance
| proved satisfactory in operation. The
speaker said there could be no reason
why it would not work as we'll in this
| city. He thought 1t needed. He be-
lieved there was no necessity for say
| ing more for the members seemed to
understand it,
| The alderman from Ward 2 said he
had consulted a lawyer and found that
a man could not under that ordinance
sell a. cask of lime to the city if he
were a city official. The city didn't
need any such ordinances. The people
were honest. he believed. -
Alderman Lane had called for the
yeas and nays. but the motion was not
seconded. The vote stood: Opposed.
Dudley. Lewis and Curtis: in favor
Lane.
The alderman from Ward presented
an order. which was passed. to abate
he assessment against w. H. Turner
on account of the Winthrop street
sewer. as previous payment of assess
ment on Court street had been made:
also that any payment Mr.. Turner
may have made on Winthrop street
sewer be refunded. -sfssr
A communication was received from
City Marshal Morse presenting the
resignation of James f. McGuinness
as a member of the police force. and
appointing in his place Edwin l..
White for the remainder of the year
Alderman Dudley moved that it be
accepted. Alderman Weber made the
motion that one of the special officers
serve out the balance of the municipal
year, but the motion was lost. and the
former motion prevailed. Following is
the communication in full:
City of Augusta February H. 1891
TO His Honor. the Mayor and Gentlemen
of the Board of Aldermen of the City of
Augusta: s- s

board. the resignation of James f. Nc

His Record Kept Clean.

A few days ago tramp called at a
well known home in the city at about
breakfast time and asked for something
to eat. The gentleman of the house in
formed the tramp that there was pile
Of wood in his back yard, and that If
he would saw up quantity of it he
would give him breakfast. The tramp
agreed, and the gentleman of the house
forthwith conducted him to the pile of
wood, and, after pointing out to him
the saw, retired into the house.
A short time thereafter, wishing to
see how the tramp was progressing, he
went out into the yard. The tramp had
disappeared and not a log of wood had
been sawed. AS he approached the pile
of wood he noticed piece of paper fas-
tened to the saw, and on it were written
these words:
Just tell them that you saw me,
But you never saw me saw.
