VARYING AGES.

At sweet sixteen the maiden fair,
 With many lovers busy. Will lift her pose up in the hair
 And ask with quite a naughty
 stare,
 Who is he? Oh, who is he?" At enty.fve she's more subdu-d,
 With sweetheart's not so busy; Still. doubtful men must not intrude, She asks-with no wish to be rude What is he? Oh! what is he?" But at the age of thirty-fve.
 With hopes deferred quite dizzy, She works on quite a different plan, And cries. when hearing of man, Where is he? Oh, where is he?"

CATCH DEER IN RACE ON ICE
Crowd of Hundred Take Up the
 Chase, and Kill Animal.

SKOWHEGAN, Me, Dec. 17-For ren miles on the Kennebec river the other day there was a race be- tween a buck deer and over one hundred Skowhegan men and boys on skates. The deer lost both the race and his life.
 Up the river and back again and around an island the hunters went until the animal was killed with a polo club by Myron Smith and Lyle Moore. Moore and Smith, two of the fastest skaters in town, saw the deer crossing the river far above them. He was then about two-thirds of the way across. The young men went in pursuit.
 When they were close upon the animal he turned up the river. Deer and men sped along for two miles. People on the banks saw the chase and notified others in the village. All the skates that could be found were pressed into service.

-Four great bloi re tigers, larger,
and heavier than the most sc,iesiyn
Tammany Tiger ever reared, are
being placed today On the corner
parapets Of the 10th Street bridge
across the Piney Branch, one of the
finest and most expensive bridges
within the District of Columbia,
having cost almost million dollars.
When the workmen drive home the
last spike which fastens each base or
splinth" into the structure vt the
bridge the city will see the finch Of
a piece OF work in which all the
romance Of an artists hope OF a
masterpiece is bound. These tigers
will cost the District $4,000; they
have cost the artist who fashioned
them the work of eighteen months.
A. Pl.imister Proctor Of New York
has staksd he rep1tataii IN on the
four tigers which his hands and brain
created for the Piney Branch bridge.
The tigers will sit upon parapets,
swith their tails inside. This is an
expression OF w. w. Reynolds, TIE
assistant engineer Of bridges, who is
watching carefully thewerk Of lifting
these 1850 pounds beasts from the
train to the bridge. The bronze
tigers are very nearly alike, except
that the artist has caught the weaving
motion of the tail and fastened it in
bronze SO that it points inward toward
the roai way Of the bridge. This i
a small point, hut it illustrates The
fact that most Of the detail has beer
worked out so that il will show the
most from the roadway, over which
tens OF thousands OF people pas
every time. These tiger. are said Il
be the finest ever modelled, the artis
having spent months with shows ans
in the n. Y. 200" making stud,

This year is regarded as a crucial
one in the history Of waterway
improvement and development for it
will be settled by thu 62nd Congress
whether the recommendations made
by the river and harbor committees
of the 6lst Congress, that there
should he annual river aud harbor
bills, shall become the fixed policy
of the government. For ten years
or more the National Rivers and
Harbors Congress has been carrying
On campaign of education t. the
end that the rivers Of the country
should be treated in the same manner
as the army, the navy, the post-ofice
and other branches of the govern
ment and that piece meal and spor-
sdic appropriations should be wholly
abandoned not only in the interest
of economy Lut looking to the early
completion of accepted projects along
we'll defined lines. Should the dem
ocrats, who are now on trial for the
first time in fifteen years decide upon
a policy Of retrenchment in app opri-
atoms in view Of their oft-repeated
charge of extravagaace against the
republicans, it might result in an
agreement to pass up the river and
harbor bill to the 63rd Congress.
Herein lies the danger to the realiza-
tion Of a comprehensive policy of
waterway betterments, "a danger,
according to ,fr. J. N. Teal Of
Oregon, director in the National
Rivers and Harbors Congress, s.at
once very real and very vital to the
cause of river and harbJr improve
ments which the American people

BUFFALO BILL TO RETIRE
Many interesting Features WI Be
Presented.

Considerable interest has been aroos-
ed III this vicinity through the announc-
" appearance Of Buffalo Bills Wild
West and rswnee Bills Far East at
Washington, D. C.. April 18th and IS.
Col. Nm. y. Cody, The original and
onlyi' 'Bcfrslo Bi.h'i travels with the
big exhibition spd positively appears 81
every performance, rain or shine, but
this will be his farewell appearance in
this section as he is soon to retire.
Arrangements have been made with
the railroad officials TO run excursions
at special rates from the various
stations along the line and there will
be special provisions for the accommo-
dation of those who wish TO visit the
exhibition. To the small boy and
grown-up "Buffalo Billr will be the
chief at raction, for his fame is not
dimmed by the years which have
elapsed since he helped write the
story of the West through his herioc
deeds. One of the principal contests
of the red men in which he took active
part, will be pictured in the open-air
melodrama. The Battle of Summit
Springs, an engagement in miniature
introducing more than one hundred
Indians and as many cavalrymen and
soldiers. Contrasted with this scene
will be an Oriental spectacle which
will picture the gorgeous beauties Of
the Far East, its pageantry and people,
its pleasures and pastimes, and its
strange costumes and customs. Turning
again to American history, there will
be an Attack Upon an Emigrant Train
and A Holiday at "T-E' Ranch.
Rossia's Musical Elephants will be
particular feature Of the Far East
scene, and as an individual feature Of
the Wild West section Of the exhibition
Ray Thompson,s Trained Western
Range Horses will be shown in feats Of
grace and equine skill. Sharpshooting
by johnny Baker will be a particular
attractive feature, and a bunch Of
bucking bronchos will furnish the
principal comedy element of truly
exhilarating and strenuous exhibition.

would naturally be COMPOUNDED with
the issue Of continuing a Liberal

All policies Of the Liberal party

The suggestion for an appeal
comes from those centers OF the

feeling in Ottawa that this would be
very good time in which to go to
the people, for the government is
convinced that the constituencies
generally are quite favorable to the

are many other considerations Of a
political nature which might make
