BEING THE ICE MAN.
One OF Them Tells Why His voca-
tion is No Perennial Picnic.


tlon is No Perennial Picnic.
A hundred members of the Massa.
chusetts Ice Dealers Association met
and dined at the Hotel Bellevue the
other day, It being their second an
nual affair of this nature. The Presi-
dent of the association, the Hon. Will
lam M. Eaton of Quincy, presided.
Speaking of the ice business, Elmer
IL. Bright Of Boston, Secretary and
Treasurer of the association, said:
The ice men differ in business
from almost any other line. Their ac-
quaintance with one another has been
limited; so last year we resolved that
1t would be benefit to all to meet
once year and discuss the ice stu.
alton. l do not believe there Is any
business done where the amount of
money invested is so large and the
profit so comparatively small as it is
In ours. The prices of iron lumber,
horses, and all the material that goes
to make up an ice plant, have had
considerable advance, but the price
OF Ice has not advanced a cent. There
are number of men In the business
who are in very good circumstances.
but you will find that they are all men
well along In years, who made their
money years ago, when profit was
greater. Conditions since then have
changed materially. The large Gus.
toners had their ice boxes on the
noors of their stores or places; now
they are so high up that where in
former years one man could do the
work 1t takes two now, and in a great
many cases more. This, of course
all means very considerable increase
in cost of putting out ice, and labor
in our business is one of the greatest
problems that we have to deal with.
The public, as a class, is very in
considerate. l do not know that 1t
intends to be but suppose it is
through thoughtlessness. II the peo.
pie would stop and think that they.
like their neighbors, want a much
larger quantity Of ice on hot mornings
IN summer, particularly Saturday and
Monday, and that for this reason It
takes so much longer to deliver the
Ice. | think they would be reasonable
and not feel abused at little waiting.
we are able to load on wagons
only about one-half of the ice that the
icehouse holds; in some places not
over 40 per cent. Our teams, starting
out very early in the morning and not
getting in In hot weather until very
late at night, make 1t a hard business
to follow and handle. The ice man
has plenty to do in the very hottest
and the very coolest weather. On the
whole. 1t is not business Offering
untold Inducements to men to go into
it.'-Boston Transcript.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1900-06-21

II Is unfortunate that Secretary
Roots legal adviser Mr.. Magoon,
found II necessary to give two contra
dictory opinions on the status OF Porto
Rico, one holding that the constitution
was extended to that island when the
peace convention was ratified and the
other insisting that Porto Rico is not
q part of the United States. Vacilla-
tion of that sort will be made the most
of by opponents OF the administration,
and already 1t is being said by them
that the second opinion was produced
under pressure exerted by the trusts
whose interests are to be promoted by
q tariff on Porto Rican products.
Supposing the first opinion to be
sound and correct. the president told
congress that "our plain duty is to
abolish all customs tariffs between the
United States and Porto Rico and give
her products free access to our mar
kets." Relying upon the superior le-
gal soundness of the second opinion.
some Of the party leaders insist that
Porto Rico should be treated like a
foreign country and a tariff be placed
upon her products. }pi
II the second opinion be correct, Il
is a great pity that Law Officer Magoon
made such mistake In the first. He
should have made sure he was right
before going ahead. His blunder is
bringing much trouble to the party
and making It difficult to controvert
those who allege that the influence of
the trusts is too potent in shaping the
policy Of the administration. The Re-
publican party has enough to do fight
ing its avowed enemies without having
to fight the" consequences OF blunders
made by maladroit statesmen In its
own ranks. Some changes in leader
ship appear to be desirable. Phiiadel-

DECLARATIONS OF LOVE,
Various Ways in Which Proposals
Were Made In 100 Love Stories.

Were Made In 100 Love Stories.
Some one with a weakness for sta.
tistics has waded through 100 stand
ard love stories and tabulated the var
ious ways in which lovers behave
in popping the question. In 100 cases
where the proposal was accepted no
less than 81 gentlemen kissed the
lady and began "all of a sudden"
Eighty-one declared they could not
live without her, while seventy.two
held the girls hand and thirty-six
took her in their arms.
Twenty-six lovers sat down to put
the question. four fidee.ed about with
their handkerchiefs-whi three af-
terward required to wipe away the
tears of Joy; three stood on one foot.
and the same number "reclined on
the grass" only four thought it ne
cessary to go down on both knees, but
twice as many knelt on one. In thir-
ty-two cases kissing took place. Only
four kissed the girl on the cheek, but
ten saluted the fair ones curls! Three
kissed her eyes, two her hands, one
the top of her head, one her nose
(by mistake), and one her shawl.
The behavior of the women is equal.
ly interesting. Eighty-seven knew
something was coming and sank into
the gentleman's arms, sixty-one cush-
ioned their heads against his manly
bosom, while twelve preferred his
shoulder. One sank back into a chair
and no less than eleven clasped their
arms around his neck. The eyes of
seventy-two were full of love, seven
had eyes moist and limpid, and the
optics of two were dry. Forty-eight
wept aloud and six shed silent tears
of joy.
Twenty-seven fumbled with their
gloves, fans and flowers, twelve bur-
led their faces in their hands and one
struggled not to be kissed. On the
other hand, six girls kissed the man
first. Nine rushed from the room to
tell somebody and five giggled hys.

Col. James NJ Guffey, who is at the
head OF the Democratic state organiZa-
ton. Is one of Pittsburg's most pros
porous business men and is as generous
as he Is wealthy. He Is natural lead
er, quick to perceive and prompt to
execute. When difficulties arise he has
the happy faculty of solving them so
as to strengthen the cause he desires
to promote. For several years past he
has contributed more to the Demo-
cratic state campaign fund than any
other man in the state and perhaps
more than all the others together.
Though he is very busy man, with
large and varied business interests de-
manding his attention, he has devoted
great deal of time to the cause of the
state and national Democracy.
Col. Guffey's insight concerning po-
litical events is remarkable. During
the closing days OF the Quay case In
the senate prominent Democrats al
most without exception were convinc-
ed that Quay would be seated. Col.
Quincy, on the contrary, persisted in
declaring to the last that Quay would
not get seat on the governors COM
mission, and the result showed that his
Judgment was correct.
Though Hon. J. c. Sibley and Col.
Guffey have not been pulling in double
harness since the former transferred
his allegiance to the Republican party,
yet Mr.. Sibley recognizes the colonel's
sterling qualities and in an interview
a few weeks ago paid the following
tribute to his ability as leader:
II would say that while he and l
shave differed upon some questions.
that does not prevent my recognizing
the great qualities of leadership he
has manifested, and IL his friends
would unite in his support, he could
unquestionably be made the next chair
man of the Democratic national com
mittee, and with him in that position
they would be sure of seeing the great
est national campaign that was ever
waged, so far as generalship is con-
cerned. He is a dashing, bold, and a
natural born strategist, and many in
cidents in Pennsylvania could be quot
ed to prove the latter; he has marvel
GUS ability, great organizing powers,
and has shown a tact rarely exhibited
by any man with so limited an expert
ence in public life as he has had. No
man who has watched Col. Guffey's
Noicoi Sah idii W TtCORHlZe Ine Iact
that in national as well as state poll
tics he Is man who must be taken
into account for good many years to
come. II made national chairman he
would catch the people of the south
and the swest. He is just their style
A business man, and possessing the
confidence of the east, he has also the
breeziness of the west and the good
fellowship of the south, and would be
equally popular in all sections.
should not be surprised to see Col. Cuff
fey placed at the head of the Demo-
cratic national committee"
Col. Guffey will head the Pennsyl-
vania delegation to the Kansas City
convention, and there will be no such
trifing as there was at Chicago in 1896
on the part of the Pennsylvania dele
gates. His advice is much sought by
the national Democratic committee,
OF which he Is an active and influential
member. The Democracy of Pennsyl-
vania is fortunate in having so capa-
BILE and energetic leader as Col. ]. NJ.
Guffey.
