pect was anything but pleasant
There was no hope of reaching safety
with our two small dories. By a
quick triangalion we estimated the
weight Of the ice barrier to be at
least ten million pounds.
l was almost ready to give up
when the possibility Of saving a way
through the narrow neck at the end
OF the barrier suggested itself. We
started desperately to work with
buck saws.t Many hours Of saving
took US almost through, when we
suddenly realized the force of the
tide would Immediately drive the bar
in again and close the outlet.
Decided to Force Passage.
1 decided the Bowdoin must buck
her way out. We cleared all but just
enough ice to hold the barrier in
place and drew the Bowdoin back
for the big smash. There were four
teen Eskimos on the deck, including
wives, two babies and 20 Eskimo
dogs. The wind was rising and the
dogs and babies were bowling. The
incoming tide was jamn ing the ice
bar into the cove like Il cork in a
bottle and other big chunks were
coming on behind, squaring away at
a good distance from the ice jam.
j gave here the jingle for full speed
ahead. We hit the ice with crack
like an earthquake. The ship was
stopped dead, apparently not making
a dent on the barrier and the Eski-
mo dogs, babies and women were

 The chateau has been in the Or messon family ever since it was built, which was in the 16th century. Part of it was later destroyed and rebuilt in the 18th century. One approaches it down a long inclined, cobbled avenue, at the end of which are two little 16th century builinsg, which form what in America would probably be called a gate.
 In front of the house is square and little bridge leading to the front door, for the chateau is entirely cur rounded by water.

 Investigating Voting Machines
 The citizenship committee, under Mrs. c. P. Beddow and Mrs. R. A. Jones, has been busy investigating the cost and practicability of installing voting machines in Jefferson county, at least in the heaviest boxes, so as to save time, labor and money at the cleo tions.- Letters have been written to New York, Cincinnatfs and Cleveland, asking for information concerning the cost and operation of the machines in those places. It is hoped that the new board of revenue will provide for these machines, if it is decided that it can be done without special act of legisla- ture. l.. K. Bowen, registrar, is also making investigations concerning them and securing data to present to the board.
