Inc most curious pOstOtfice in Amer
lea is the one which stands in Beebe
Plain, town half in Vermont and half
in the province Of Quebec, Canada.
The old pOstOfiice was built about sew
enty-tive years ago exactly on the line
between the United States and Canada,
so that it stands in two countries and
serves in the postal service two ma
tons, The cellar of the building con-
meets the two countries, and some years
ago, when the postoffice was general
store, whisky was known to be sold in
one country and delivered in another
without having gone out from under
the roof Of the old structure.
The combination pOstOffice is now be-
ing run by parent and child, the father
being postmaster for Canadian Quebec
and the daughter pOstmistress for YER
mont. Standing in front of this strange
pOstOffice is a large post, which marks
the boundary line, and it is said that
one time man who wanted to get a
roadway to his premises moved this
post, and many thousands of dollars
and no little time were spent to estab-
lish the exact line again.

FISHERMEN FLEE FROM PERIL.
Many of Bay City Colony Are Still in
Dancer on Ice FIoe.

Bay City, Mich, March 3.-As II
panic stricken, the fishermen on the
ice foe in the bay are, with few excep-
tions making an effort to get ashore,
while others who made a safe landing
are going back with the intention OF
saving their shanties if possible.
Thirty-tive men, team and horses
and a woman came ashore on cake
of ice at Big Creek, sixteen miles down
the east shore yesterday A farmer on
shore sent a line to them in skift.
The fishermen then cut out cake OF
ice about 100 feet square, and after
all were safely lodged on it drew 1T to-
ward shore, where a landing was made
after considerable difficulty. The wo-
man was dressed in mans clothes and
had concealed her sex for months.
She said she had been spearing fish all
winter, partly for sport and partly for
the money she could make out of it.
The main body of ice remains inn
mobile, and as the fear is growing
among fishermen that they may never
get more favorable opportunity to
come ashore than at present they are
all making arrangements to desert
their lev homes.
