Inc tug Flannery, belonging to John J.
- Hare, an ice commission broker, with a depot
at Houston-st. and East River, was run into
and sunk in the North River at Seventeenth
st last evening. and her cargo Of 270 tons Of
ice was lost She was struck in the keel by the
tug Hart Of the Cornell Towing Line, which is
alleged to be controlled by the American Ice
Company.
OHare declares there was no excuse for the
accident. He says he will be unable to supply
his customers with ice, and will be unable to get
another cargo in before to-day
O'Hare owned the tug himself. He explains
that he sends the tug up the North River and
gathers up his cargo early in the evening instead
OF waiting until II comes 70 Pier No g, as many
DO, because OF the hundreds or more tugs at that
point and the consequent delay.

Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe at one
time passed her summers at Hampton
Beach, and into her room one day
came a delicate humming bird, making
himself quite at home The windows
were closed, little lunch Of sugar and
water was prepared for him, and a
line stretched for the tiny fellow to
swing upon He staid with Mrs Stowe
several days, until one afternoon, just
as Mrs. S. was going to drive with a
friend, a window was opened while the
bird was flying around, and ont he pop
ped into the open air "Oh, dear He's
gone, and l shall never see him again3
Mrs. Stowe exclaimed But her friend,
to cheer her up, insisted upon 1t that
the bird would surely come back again.
Well, as they were driving along In
the carriage the little creature came
and lowered near them, and on their
return home be few through the win
dow into the room, much to Mrs.
Stoves delight. She kept him with
her until he died later on at Hartford.

Putting Away summer Things.

In putting away summer dresses OF
lawn or other thin material or thin
silk they should never be hung or fold
ed lengthwse. If placed in a wide
drawer or trunk, fold once across the
skirt. This has a tendency to counter
act the lengthwise wear Of the skirt
when in use. In putting away dresses
shields should be taken out and the
seams Of the bodice spOnged lightly
with ammonia water on the inside and
thoroughly dried. All bits Of crumpled
lace and sOiled ribbons should be taken
,off and separately freshened. White
silk parasols should be wrapped in
blue tissue paper. A handsome para
sol can be preserved from creasing and
cracking between the ribs If, while the
parasol IS held partly opened il the
hand, the upper part inside the ribs is
stuffed full Of crumpled tissue paper.
The parasol should then be suspended
from a hook in the center of closet
and paper laid all over the outside to
shed the dust. This treatment has pre-
served a delicate parasOl for years In
perfect condition.

chip from a block of ice fragments of

there is nothing to guide the strokes,
and the user is very apt TO split Off

on the cake OF ice. In using the i'm
plement it is placed against Il cake
and struck with the hand or a ham
mer, breaking off small fragments and
allowing them to fall through the
guard into q bowl or other convenient
receptacle, thus preventing all waste
Of small pieces that would otherwise
