A Note to the General Public.

Recent unfortunate references to the lib
eral church and its teachings urge me to ex-
press my regret that the cordial and frater-
nal feeling of the various churches of the
city should in such ways be weakened.
I0At such references to the church of my
ministry met with the approval of any large
number of the people present at that time, |
do not believe, and it is good to know that
these references We're not made by the pas
tors of local churches. Lest the teachings
OF my church be placed by these recent re-
Elections i'll false light in the community
add the cardinal beliefs of my branch of the
liberal church, the Universalist: / The
universal fatherboOd of God 2. The spirit
ual authority and leadership of His Son,
Jesus Christ. 8. The trustworthiness of
the Bible as containing a revelation from
God. t. The certainty of Just retribution
for sin. 5. The final harmony of all souls
with God.
Yours respectfully and cordially,
ASHLEY A. SMITH,
Pastor First Universalist Church.

THE STORY OF THE ICE.

Locally there is little to tell. Conditions
are practically unchanged. An ice bridge
extends to Islesboro and travel back and
forth is by sleighs and sleds. Following
are reports of the situation elsewhere on
the coast:
PORTLAND, Feb. % Much ice along the
coast of Eastern Maine is the report given
by Capt Archibald of the steamer Monhe-
noon about 5 O'Clock. The Monhegan left
Jonesport Monday morning and was badly
delayed in leaving that harbOr. At Greens
Landing considerable difficulty was found
in reaching the wharf and the steamer was
forced to remain there over night. So much
ice was encountered in crossing to Vinal-
haven that Capt. Archibald abandoned the
idea of reaching Portland Tuesday and held
over after reaching Vinalhaven until
Wednesday morning. While there the
crew saw two new fishing sch0oners crush
ed in the ice in the presence of a large
crowd Of spectators, who were unable to
prevent the accident. Fortunately the dam
age was not as great as it appeared while
the Monhegan was present, later reports
showing it to have been slight.
RoCKLAND, Feb. "a. A northeasterly
wind which has prevailed here the past IS
hours has had the effect of making Rock
land closed port. The drift ice from the
many of the cakes being IS inches in thick
ness. The steamer Gov Bodwell was un-
able to make this port on her return from
the islands Friday and landed passengers
and freight at Camden, eight miles distant.
On her eastern trip the BOdwelI was unable
to get into Stonington, but Swans Island,
the terminal point, was found open. AL
though navigation had been conducted
with extreme difficulty for some time, this
is the first time this winter that Rockland
has been completely closed.
ROCKLAND, Feb. q. Under the intlnen ce
OF q heavy northwest gale strip of ice a
mile in width today broke away from the
main body, which has kept this port closed
for several days, and carried with it the
coasting schooners Eugene BOrda and
Yankee Maid. The vessels were drifting
seaward and in position of much danger
when the tug Fred E. Richard rescded them
and brought them to a safe anchorage. The
steamer Gov. Bodwell, which has been land
ing at Camden since the port closed, was able
to reach her dock here today. The high
ways drifted badly today and several miles
OF the Rockland, Thomaston and Camden
Street Railway became impossible, incutl-
ing the Warren and Highland divisions.

The college was rudely awakened from
its Sunday morning slumbers about seven
a. nj. last Sunday by the repeated footing of
the whistle and ringing of the bell. A fire
got underway in the basement of Fernald
hall and when it was discovered the smoke
was so thick it was impossible to locate the
fire or determine its origin. An impromptu
fire department was organized and the fire
was finally extinguished with good deal
OF difficulty, not, however, until after the
valuable instruments had been carefully
removed. The fire was a particularly quiet
one and little damage was done to the build
ing or its contents. Fernald Hall was one
of the first buildings on the campus and
was named in honor of Merritt c. Fernald,
LID, president of the University from
1879 to 1893. 1t is two story brick build
ing containing fifteen rooms devoted to the
