Among the business men there has
been more or less wonderment why TIL
name of the company which is to build
the Waterville & Wiscasset road has
been changed. The contract for build
ing the road was thought to have been
made with the Kennebec Construction
Co. by the majority of people. When
,he company advertised for bids it was
in the name of the Richmond & Poto-
mac Construction Co. The change IN
name same about in this manner.
When the company was started it was
thought best or organize under the
name of the Kennebec Construction
Co. As the company was about to or
ganiZe. it was found that the charter
of the Richmond l. Potomac Co. could
be purchased at a much lower figure
than new company could be organ
lied. For that reason the company is
doing business under the new name.

Ice Men Are Happy.

The ice men are more than please d
with the outlook for a good and abun.
dant crop. When the summer season
closed nearly all the houses in the city
We're empty. owing to the unusual de-
mands during the hot weather. The
expense in harvesting the ice has been
comparatively small. Those who have
put up ice houses find that they can
have them filed for 2ls cent cake.
The men are now busy on all The ice
fields. and as a result it is harl work
to find labOrers. The weather cOndi-
tons so far have been almost perfect.
In consequence the season will be
comparatively short. The ice houses
are we'll filled already.
