ADRIFT IN GRAND CANYON.
Two Miners Tell of Experience il
Awful Rapids Of Colorado River.

The Needless. Cal, Feb 19.-Charles
S. Russell and Z. r. Monet, who
came all the way through Grand Car
yon of the Colorado in a sixteen-foot
rowboat, have reached here. Not
since 1889, when Robert B. Stanton
landed here after a successful fight Of
752 miles in the river. has any one
made the perilous voyage.
In telling of the trip Russell said:
The river below Bright Angel for
40 miles was SO rough that | never
expected to get through alive. If
Magyar is worse than Diamond Creek
Rapids it must be more than rocks
and water. After the damage to the
boat in Hermit Creek Rapids we did
not dare to try to lower boat through
this fall Monet managed to climb
down the side of the long rapids, but
l shot them.
THE BOAT capsized half way
through and l was unable to crawl
out from underneath until we had
shot down into the big eddy at the
bottom Monet helped me get the
boat ashore and we found it was all
right.
"Monett carried all the exposed
camera plates and thus saved our
photographs. We ended the trip with
about two days supply OF provisions
pretty close figuring
Russell refused to tell what success
he had found in the way of mineral in
the second granite sorge-where it is
generally supposed the richest ore in
all III" length Of the canyon exists.
Starting on September 20 at Green
River. Utah. the men have covered 192
miles in Ill days. The last 332 miles
from Bright Angel, they made in
thirty-three days.

Wolves Are Seen In the
Town Of Gray.
Animals Kill a Deer at Little
Sehago Lake.
Interesting Figures Regarding Ken

STATE HOUSE CALENDAR.
Next Meeting Of Governor and Council
Tuesday, Feb. Is, at 10 A. M.

From reports received by the Com
miSsioners of Inland Fisheries and
Game it is learned that there are at
present roaming about the forest fast
nesses in the vicinity Of the town of
Gray, in Cumberland county, two
large wolves, and not little concern
is telt by the farmers of that vicinity
for the salty of their flockS of sheep
and young stock. These are the first
wolves that have been seen in Maine
for a long time and it is understood
that means will at once be taken TO
encompass their destruction The law
provides for the payment of a bounty
Of IS for every wolf killed in any town
in the State, the payment being made
by the treasurer thereof to the person
killing the wolf.
OF the presence of the wolves in that
locality there is not the slightest
doubt. Ex- Senator Matthew &. Nor
ril Of Gray writes the commissioners
that On Monday, Feb. Il. Two wolves
ran down and killed deer near an
island in Little Sebago lake, and that
he got close onto them before they ran.
That they killed the deer there is no
doubt, as when Mr.. Morrill, reached the
tdICdSt IL W;tS SUN warm. 'cpu mum
ters are now securing the country in
search of the marauders and hope to
exterminate them.
It is believed that the wolves seen ut
Gray are tl:o which are said to have
escaped from 4 park near Deering, al
though in his letter to the commission
ers Mr.. Morrill, states that there has
been one wolf in that vicinity for the
~,
the two above referred to seemed to be
lighter colored than those at the park.
although it is said that this difference
i'll color might be accounted for by the
presence of snow.
Every effort will be made to eXter-
inmate the animals and Commissioner
Carleton has suggested that the hunt
be taken up by an armed posse, as it
is particularly desired that the wolves
be killed before they have a chance
TO breed, as should they succeed in
raising young a great amount of dam
age would without doubt result to the
deer and sheep in that section.

New York men have justly earned
the reputation of being less polite in
their treatment of women in publc
convayances than are the men of other
cities. Figures obtained from other
cities. including Boston. Philadelphia.
Washington. Chicago and San Fran
cisco. show an average of Is per cent
OF men seated while women are stand
ing, and New York city shows about 20
per cent. New York men say that if
they gave their seats to women during
rush hours they would always have to
stand.

TCLEANWALK
Laundryman Bsm SiUg Thinks
 Tenant Should Do Il.

The question of who is responsi- ble for cleaning the sidewalks of snow is again before the public, and Ham Sing, who runs laundry at $50 South Main street, with his counsel, Attorney Russell, are the instruments of publicity this time. Attorney Russell holds that Sing S tenant. an Italian cobbler, is re- sponsible for the job.
 Sing is tenant of some one else, and he sub-let portion of his prem ises to the Italian. After the recent snowfall he lost no time in clearing the snow off the sidewalk directly in front of his laundry, leaving the re- mainder for his sub-tenant, the Ital- ian, to clear off. The subject of King Victor Emanuel paid no atten- tion to the sidewalk and in time it became quite dangerous to pedes- trianism. Ham Sing, his landlord, told him to clean !t off, but the Roman still refused. He held, as wiser heads have done, that as Sing, his landlord, lives on the premises, it was his duty to clean off the snow and ice. Sing on the advice of his counsel held otherwise, and mean while people were falling on the sidewalk, making business for doc tors. Yesterday Officer Wagner, tired of telling both the Celestial and the Roman, acted upon common sense and in theory arrested the Celestial on the grounds that he being the landlord of the Roman and living and working on the premises, he was responsible for the state of the sidewalk. The matter was to have been heard in the city court this morning, but Sings counsel was not ready to proceed so 1t will be heard tomorrow, that is if Sing in tends to fight. In general way the sidewalks of the city were never in such bad and dangerous condi- tion.

SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.
Important Event to Take Place on
 February 18th.

Some knowledge of the busy life of Mime Lillian Nordica, who is coming February 15 with Walter Damrosch and the New York Symphony orches- tra, may be gained from study of her repertoire, list which indicates that she has learned and sung not only one but some times two roles ill the same opera, memorizing the text in French, Italian and German according to the demands of the cast presenting 1t. The operas in which she has achieved success number thirty-one and while her fame, per haps, rests largely upon her achieve ments in Wagnerian operas, her Car men and Juliette, her Aida, her Mar guerite and her Lucia, are scarcely less famous than her Representations of the wonderful women of Wagner. In reference to her Wagnerian roles it Is interesting to note that Anton Seidl, whose death was such serious loss to art. was the first to encourage the singers aspirations in this direc- tion. He had full faith in the out come of her high Ideals and assist ed her greatly in directing her stud ies. Either Mime Nordica alone or the New York Symphony orchestra under MT Damrosch's leadership, will be an attraction far out of the ordinary but jointly their appearance is an event whose importance can hardly be oyerestimated. The tour Is under the direction of Loudon Charlton the well known New York impressario. Seats will be reserved for the concert when ordered by mail. accompanied by check or money order Tickets may he claimed at the Buckingham phar- macy on February 10. The public sale will be on the eleventh. Prices are as follows: First two and last two rows in body of house, second, third and fourth rows in first section bal cony. $1.

 Sent to Brookside.


 Tn the city court to-day before Judge Peasley Peter Violet was fined s10 and costs for intoxication and misconduct on Canal street last ev- ening.
 Michael Pontivello was picked up on Chatfeld avenue this morning famished with cold and hunger. For some weeks he had been sleeping in a barn but the owner saw there was no prospect of things improving for him and he did not like to permit him to loaf around the barn. The man said he had not partaken of food for two days. He was tied up in knot with bad cough and rheu- matism and when he was taken to the station house he was given a meal that frightened him up. but he is far from a we'll man. He was com mitted to BFookside for thirty days.
 Another man who was given the name of Louis Doe, 1t being impos- sible to ascertain his proper cogno- men. came up from Seymour a few weeks ago to get work. Evidently he had been unsuccessful for his sleep ing quarters have been hallways. He was picked up on East Main street this morning at 1 o'clock. He was committed to jail for ten days
 James Hurley was given thirty days for intoxieation. and David Miller of Wood street was fined sIO and costs for intoxication and making trouble at his home. It was his first experience in court and hIs wife cried bitterly after reluctantly telling Of the matter.

SUPERIOR COURT
Beach Divorce Case Had IoBg
 Rearing To-Day.

The superior court. Judge Joel H Reid presiding, opened here to-day for civil business. The first case set down for hearing was withdrawn with the understanding that there was prospect of a settlement. This was the case of Daisy L. Hudson's ap- peal from probate, in which she claimed $4,000 against the estate of the late Robert Leach, who kept a rubber goods store on South Main street. Miss Hudson lives in Water- town, N. Y., and claimed she gave this money to MT Leach to invest for her and he never gave her cent back.
 The next case was Elmer J. Beach's s divorce suit against his wife, Mabel Gray Beach on the grounds of cruelty and infidelity. Beach testi- fled that he was married to the de- fendant in June, 1891, and that four children ranging in age from 8 to 13 were born to them. Both parties live in Bethany and the court room was fairly we'll filled with their wit nesses. Beach left his wife on Aug ust l., 1905. and he based his claim of Ynfidelity on the grounds that a child was born to her last February Since their separation they met twice. As to the claim of cruelty Beach said that his wife once struck him over the eye with a yard stick and once or twice she went for him with her finger nails. Another time she lamed his arm for a week with a blow from chair and he said she would not take care of the house or cook his meals. The hearing was good for the whole day.
