A company has been formed il
New Orleans to compete with the
ice trust, by shipping natural ice
from the north and west. Many
people declare they would rather
use natural ice than manufactured
substance for the reason that it Is
purer. This argument IS based
upon facts that are indisputabIc,
for be 1t said that manufactured
ice becomes putrid and crumbles
to pieces in time, while natural
lake or river ice can be stored
away for years and kept IN the
best condition. Ices of various
kinds, such as furnished by re-
freshment stands, and water cooled
with natural ice, are much purer
when such is used, although It is
generally accepted that the health
Is not impaired 10 any great extent
by the manufactured substance.

warmer as the day grows; the
noon recess is forgotten; the calm,
telling logic of John Adams, the
quaint clear sentences of DR..
Franklin, the impass,oned oratory
of Henry, all falling upon at
tentive ears. Never Was such a
scene witnessed as that now being
enacted here. There is no con.
fusion, no excitement, but the
gravity of the occasion rests heavl.
ly upon all. Now the hour has
arrived. The roll-call has begun.
Delaware is reached. Caesar Rod

There Is clatter Of hoofs, a clang-

and in ringing tones the reply
comes, Caesar Rodney votes aye"
The roll-call conlnues; Is finished.
The Declaration of Independence
is adopted, and the United States
