EXCITING TRIP,
Stage from PlnttsburRh to Grand Isle
Found Thin Ice.

The stage coach between Plattsburgh
and Grand Isle driven by w. Il. Hooey
had an exciting trip from Plattsburgh to
Grand Isle yesterday morning. At the
New York State port seven passengers
wanted to take passage. The driver hest
tated to make the trip with "A heavy load
Of passengers, owing TO the condition of
the Ice. His forethought probably saved
some lives. or at least "A most uncomfort-
able trip as some Of the passengers would
not have been able to reach Grand Isle
had they taken passage.
Mr.. Hooey, however. took three passen-
gers, c. G. Burritt OF this city. c. r.
Mehan of Pattsburgh. vino was en- route
to this city. and another man. The three
rode along the shore to Cumberland He'd
POSSIBLE to cross the lake with the heavy
stage and the coach and horses We're put
up In stable. Two light cutters and a
horse weighing about $50 pounds were Sc
cured and the party started on the trip
across the ice To Grand Isle Every time
the horse slackened his speed the ice
leaked and if at any time the cutters had
stopped the party would have gone to the
bottom of the lake. The ice was honey
cOmbed and large cracks were in cvi-
but the party succeeded in reaching Grand
Isle. No more trips will be made until the
ice is better.

tho amount will be paid is Il certainty

This whole amount will not bo used t.
retire the water bonds but it is expected
that from so, 90 to $50 900 OF the bonus will
be retired and that bids will be calicl foI
TO provide for a reissue Of tho remaining
amount. The water department each year
provides an amount for the sinking fund
and has thus far proved paying invest

Additional water bonds TO the amount
of s65. goo will fail due in 1919. $50 600 more
will be due in 1914. 1t is not probable that
the sinking fund will retire all these bonds
when they become due but they will be
materially reduced.

Deyos will receive financial backing in
New York for the purpose of developing
the ground. Little more thar the nee

lodes which is called the Joe Patchen a
big cave was discovered in doing a lit

surface the cavity was found and it is
estimated that it is at least 200 feet
deep. For several hundred feet around
the opening the Gaping. when struck
