ICE PRICES TO Be
ABOUT SAME As
LAST Years
HEAVY SNOWFALL INTERPRETERS
WITH HARVESTING CROP, BUT
INDICATIONS ARE THAT SUP
PLY WILL BE NORMAL.

Besides all the other Ills we know
of, this heavy snowstorm has endan-
gered the ice crop.
Ice dealers have had q great deal o.
difficulty in cutting Ice the past TWO
weeks on account of having TO scrape
away the snow. In consequence the
ice-houses are not as full as tney
otherwise would have been. Two
weeks OF clear cold weather VIII SUI

gladstone spring may come Win no
fears OF our having to drink the ien-
onade warm next summer.
But the prices are not likely 10 iaii.
even II the crop is good. Dealers say
that prices were about as low as could
be last summer and they cannot see
any cut coming.
One factor In the ice situation that
makes for stability OF price Is the
making of artificial ice. The Peoples
Ice Co. is making 120 tons OF Ice
day and has 10000 tons stored. That
is quite some Ice.
I'VE have been bucking snow and
rain" says David A. Brown, of the
Peoples Ice Co. "This week has been
spent largely in scraping the snow
away and we were in bad shape at
one time. II will be all right though
IL the cold weather lasts"
Prospects are not as good as they
ought to be at this season for a fuil
CROP" said j. l.. Miner. II think there
is about three-quarters of a crop in, al
though I haven't quite that proportion.
There is no reason why prices should
change. Last summer they were down
so that there was only a living In tho
business"
At the Beaubien Coal & Ice Co.
plant 1t was stated that the last ice
was being run Thursday afternoon and
that conditions were normal.
The Houghten-French Co. had trou-
BILE In the burning Of It's ice houses,
but is laying up as big crop as pos
sible in spite OF this setback.
Tell us what the weather will be
and we will tell you how the crop is
going to turn out" was stated at this
place But for the fire we would have
had our houses filed long ago. AS 1t
is, the weather is interfering badly"
I'VE can't cut now at ALL" was the
word from Schweikart's. There Is
little ice being run on the river. We
are about half supplied and 1t will
take two weeks more to I'LL the
houses"

DIR. MARQUIS ScORcHES
UNDESIRABLE CITIZENS

THE Board Of Commerce is Great
Ing civic ideals that are condemning
some Of the men of this city who are
falling to do their duty In behalf OF
the city as undesirable citizens"
said the Rev. 8. 8. Marquis In an adj
dress at the membership luncheon Of
the Board Of Commerce, Thursday.
He spoke OF the growing sentiment
which liz becoming tangible In the con-
domination Of the men who accumulate
property through enjoying the bust
ness opportunities given them, but
who give nothing In return; who stand
opposed to public improvements from
the selfish standpoint OF not wishing
to pay little more tax; who fail to
see the necessity of beauty In munich
pal architecture or that the striving
for civic righteousness has any part
In human life.
Thirty years hence q man might
be tried for crimes against society In
pursuing his selfish course and SEN
fenced to a reform school OF teaching
which would broaden his mind.

A Quaint Compliment.

On Mark Twain's seventy-second
birthday Hartford clergyman said OF
him:

II they were as sympathetic and kind
as he. He is continually going out
OF his way to please others. and the
result Is that he Ia continually pleas

Listen. for instance. to the quaint
compliment he paid me the last time
he came to hear me preach. He wait
ed for me at the church door at the
services end, and shaking me by the
hand said grayely:
"T mean no offense. but i feel
obliged TO tell you that the preach.

But today couldn't do It. You inter-
