The Founding Of Frankfort


The beautiful German commercial
city Of Frankfort on the Main is said
to have had a curious origin.
When the Emperor Charlemagne
contended with the Saxons the for
tunes Of war were often against him
On one occasion he was forced to retire
along the banks Of the Main. At the
time there was thick fog, and he was
unable to find his ship or any place
where his army could cross.
He was almost In despair when q
doe, carrying a young one, sprang from
a thicket in alarm, leaped into the
stream and swan over. Charlemagne
followed the example and crossed al
the same place. The fog concealed the
army, which escaped detection.
When the emperor reached the shore
he stuck his spear into the earth and
exclaimed:
"Here shall a city arise. to be called
Frankenfordr'
In consequence Of crossing the
stream he overthrew the Saxons. BE
then built the town, which afterward
became the scene Of imperial corona
lions and later Of great commercial

The German name for the game Of
checkers or daughts b "damenbrett"--
ladies' board-probably "damen" fol
short Some form Of dame" IL used
In almost every country where the
game Is played, except the English
speaking countries, and the Scots still
speak of the "dambrod." "Dames'
was the name In England for time,
and we find it In an English book to-
ward the end Of Elizabeth's reign.
The first use Of the word draughts In
existing literature Is about 400 At q
later day checkers" became another
name. and this went to America with
the early English emigrants and there
became the usual name. In England
In the sixteenth century the game had
three names-"dames," "draughts" and
checkers" At an earlier period "check'
erie,"5 "chekar," etc., had been English
names for chess.-London MirTor.

Maine. An extract from our weather
record for February 1898, may call to
mind the conditions of eighteen years
ago. On Feb. the great snow storm
occurred, and the roads were impassable
until the 4th. During this time the mer-
curry registered SO and 80 below. No
such blizzard since the seven days. bliz,
zard in February and March, 1896, when
there were no trains or mails for . full
week.
On Feb. 10, 1898, came another big
snow storm, when 20 inches OF heavy
snow fell, followed by high winds. The
roads could not be opened till the 10Th.
This storm and blow caused the greatest
amount Of labor to render the roads
passable ever known here after one
storm. During the gale on Tuesday, the
18th, occurred the death of Joseph Rus
sell, and the burial caskst could not be
brought from Canton until the 19th.
Rev. P. E Miller, who oficiated at the
funeral, was obliged to travel some three
miles on snowshoes to the residence.
The great blizzard of thirty years ago
will be well remembered by all middle
aged and old residents as unparalleled In
history. This began its fury In Febru-
ary and continued In March.
OF late years the winters in Maine do
not compare with those of half century
ago for severity and amount Of snow,
say our old residents.
This winter with its mild weather, fine
shedding and the numerous ways Of en-
joying 1t, with dramas, sociables, circle
dinners and social gatherings, makes one
feel that Maine will do for him. But
oh! what must II be In Europe! Such
conflicts, such anxiety, such devastation
and suffering, and all for what Yes,
what?
Let us hope that our peaceful land will
continue In peace. Mexico is pest
enough for US, and blot on our ooun-
try's map.
