THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. History ol Ice Palaces. ONB HKAltM) I1T A RUSSIAN KMt'HKSS A CENTUnV AND A IIAI.P A10. Tlio oonstructioii of ioo pnlaccs goes back to the timo of tlio Empress Annie, of Itiissia, who had onu built in St. Petersburg in 1739. From nu account of it published in 1751 the following is extracted The manner of building was very simple j tho purest and most transpar ent ice was selected ; it whs out from tho Mcva in !arjjo blocks, which were then squared with rulo and compass and carved out with all tho rogular architectural embellishments When eaoh block was ready it was raised to its destined placo by cranes and pulleys, and an instant before letting it down, upon the block which was to support it a little water was thrown between tho two, tho upper block was immediately lowered, tho water froze and tho two beoamo literally one. Tho wholo build ing, in fact, appeared to bo and really was all of 0110 single piece, "producing, without contraction an effect infinitely more beautiful than if it had been built of tho most costly marble, its transpar ency ond bluish tint giving it rather tho appearance of a precious stone." Tho dimensions of tho building were, in English measure, length 50 feet, depth 18 icet and height, including the roof, 21 feet. This is the body of the house : tho palisading was 87 feet in length of tho front view, including tho pyramids at tlio corners, was 144 feet. When tho work was completed tho publio were allowed an unrestricted possago through every part of tho building. This at first caused a good deal of confusion, which was, however, obviated by surrounding tho entrance with a wooden railway, and stationing police officers who allowed only a cer tain number of persons in at one time. EFFECT OF ILLUMINATION. Tho facade was plain, being merely divided into compartments by pilasters, jn each division there was a window, the framework of which was painted to represent green marble. It was re marked that the ice at the low temper aturo which prevailed, took tho pain perfectly well. The panes were form ed of slabs of ice and transparent and smooth as plalo glass. At night these windows were generally lighted up, and most commonly grotesque transpa rencies, painted on canvas, were placed in the windows. Tho effect of the illu mination is said to have been peculiar ly fine, as tho light appeared not only at tho windows, but, from tho trnuspnr enoy of the material, tho wholo palace was filled with a delicate pearly light. Tho contro division projected, and ap peared to be a door ; but it was in faot a large window, and was illuminated like the others. An ornamental balus trade surmounted tho facade of tho building, and behind was tho sloping roof with chimneys, in tho usual style of Russian Architecture. A handsome ballustrado all of ice, rau round the outside of tho building. A largo apace was left for a promenade be tween the ballustrado and tho palace. There wero also two entrances behind with gates handsomely ornamented with orange trees in leaf and flower, with birds perohed on the branches, all ' of ice. ICE CANNON OISCIinOKU. Six cannon, regularly bored and turn ed, with their wheels and carriages, stood before the balustrade, three on each side. These were of the calibre of such as usually receive three pounds of powder, bat being of so fragile a ma terial it was not considered safe to put in more than a quarter of a pound ; the ball was of hard tow, well rammed in. Two or three times iron balls wero fired from these cannon without bursting them. Tho experiment was tried in the presenco of the Court, and tho ball pierced a strong plank,two inches thick, at a distance of GO paces. Two mortars stood on each side of the cntiatice. These were tho size of those which carry a shell of 80 pounds. When fired the charge of powder was the same as that for the cannon. On the same line stood two dolphins, which were made to throw a stream of inflamed naphtha out of their mouths by means of con cealed tubes. Anecdotes pf Ben Butler, Here is an anecdote that was told mo at tho table the other day by a lady who said that her husband, though a Republican, was going to vote for him because ho wanted to "give the old man a chance.'1 A plainly dressed woman, evidently in mental distress, presented herself at his law office one day, and his secretary, in the outer office, told her that tho General was engaged inside and could not possibly seo her. "May I come to-morrow, then V slio tremu lously inquired. "No ; ho is going to Washington to-morrow." She sat a few moments, with evident reluctance to yield her hepe, and presently Mr. Butler camo out and passed through tho anti-room to go to luncheon. One of his shrewd eyes caught tho timid figure, and ho paused bofore her and asked her in rapid but kind words, if she wanted to see him. "That is what I came for,'' she said whlstfully. "State your business very briefly, and I will see what can bo done," he said, usher ing her into his consulting room. She told him a sad story of conjugal sorrow through a selfish and tyrannical hus band, who had gut from her tho little fortune left her by parents.and not only did not support her, but abused her. He said: "Vow, madam, if I inquire into this case, shall I find that you, af ter all, Q.ro the ouo to blame T Are the facts oxactly as you represent them to me, aud liavo you been to him a good and true wife "God knows I havo tried to be, and that all I have told you is true," she answered fervently, and drawing out $50 sho said : "I have, bor rowed this, to como to you with, and I'm sorry it ia not moro j but do take it, and seo if you cannot set me free from him." The General waved buck tho hand which offered the pitiful sum, and said ; "I will undertake your case, but your money is no object to me. I am not in need of it, but I would like to help you." Ho returned in duo timo from Washington, took hold of her case, which was so clear that he easily secured tho divorce and recovered 10, 000 of her patrimony for herj and even then ho would accept no fee, neither did ho make any overtures even of friendship toward her, boyond mere business-liko humanity tho humanity of a busy, absorbed,but not ungenerous man. I havo heard several anecdotes of him hero as favorable as this, and in Washington he is known as a man of great kiudness to tlio poor and tho de pendent. Zetter in Jlotton Journal. The following explains the difference betweou " luck " and " chance." You tko a girl out to tho theatro and dis cover that you haven't a cent in your pocket. You are, of course, compelled to invito her to au oyetor supper after tho performance. Sho refuses for somo reason i that'a "luok," but tho "chance" it a million to one that she will accept. He Saw Life. ltl'.MUtKAllt.E ADVKNTURKS OF A YOUNO MAN. Tho following is recorded in the Uos ton papers ! Iho hero of tho adventures recorded below arrived in this city a few days ago as a stoker on an English steamer, but his caso having becomo known to tho captain of the vessel, ho was dis charged hole, and doubtless is now en joying the comforts of his father's homo in Central Now York. It seems that this young man graduated from a prominent law Bchool in Now York City in tho fall of 1881, mid, with amnio funds, furnished by his father, ami in the company of a number of his schoolmate?, who were quite willing to help him spend his money, started on an extended tour among tho " dives '' that abound in tho metropolis. To tlio best of his rccoollcction, their tour oc cupied several days, and tho last thing that the young man remembers of lifo on shore was a low resort in South street, Now York, where tho company wa, in great part, made up of those who go down to tho sea in ships. His next sensation was that of being tossed and knocked about in a 8 mall bunk in tho close forecastle of some vessel. Starting to his feet and working his way slowly on deck, he found that ho was indeed at sea, no land being in sight. Sick, witli the unusual motion of the vessel, and weak from n long debauch, ho endeavored to find out where he was and how ho camo there. The first mate told him that ho had shipped on the vessel in New York as a common seaman, and that, if they had good luck, ho would find himself at Fort Said, in Egypt, in about sixty days. He endeavored to reason with tho officer ; told him ho was not a sail or i that he knew nothing of the sea, and that ho had never voluntarily signed the vessel's papers. His pro testations were of littlo use, however, as tho bark, for such the vessel proved to bo, was short-handed, and every man on board was needed to work her. Knowing nothing of the workings of a vessel, his position was a horrible one. The trip across proved unusually stormy, and by tho time tho vessel en tered the Mediterranean tho abducted man was in a sorry condition. Arriv ing at Port Said, ho was taken violent ly sick with a fever, and was placed in the hospital, whence ho came forth in about a month almost a skeleton. Having uo money, no friends, and not knowing what to do, ho wandered about tho streets ,of this desert city by day and nt night ho lay in his hammock, listening to tho strains of strange mu sic as they tloated from concert hall and cafe. Finally, driven to despera tion, ho managed to secure a berth as stoker on an English steamer, hoping almost against hope that something would turn up that would enable him to reach his home and friends in tho United States. About this timo tho war between England and Egypt broke out, and the steamer on which the young man was employed was engaged in transporting refugees from Alexan dria and Port Said. Shortly afterward he was present with his vessel at tho bombardment and capture of Alexan dria, and, with true Western enterprise, he secured many valuable relics of that historic struggle. At the close of tho war his ship was ordered to England and thence to this port, and, after an enforced absence of over a year, ho landed in Boston. His reception at the house of his father, who long since gave him up as lost, may well be imagined. A Dollar Profit on Eaoh Hen. Fannie Field In Ohio Farmer. Somebody wants to know if one dollar per year profit from each hen is a good average. Where hens are kept as tho majority of farmers keep them, one dollar per head is quito as much as the owner ought to expect and I don't believe that tlio average farmer can make one hundred dollars easier than by keping and caring for a flock of ono hundred hens. If he will do a lit tlo extra in the way of housing, caro and feed, the hens will add at least fif ty cents to the average dollar. Why, we have pullets that at present writing (December 11) havo laid three dozen eggs apiece sinco they commenced laying tho first week in October, but they didn't roost in trees and live on sawdust and gravel ; they had a good, warm house and plenty of food and care. If those pullets don't earn con siderable more than their "average dollar " per head, before next spring, I'll cut theio heads off, every last one of them. And I may as well tell you that when I fail to make at least three dollars profit for each hen, duck and turkey kept for breeding stock, I don't brag much about ray success in poultry raising. Dry Cows. yonthlr Jersey Bulletin. It is a common practico among somo dairymen to give their cows, whilo dry, but scanty living. When a cow ceases to give milk, or is dried up, any food is good enough for her. I think that this is a groat mistake, and the result is a diminished product of milk, both in quantity and quality, when sho doe come in, There is a large draft on tho system to sustain tho oalf whilo the cow is carrying it, and to keep tho cow in good condition, good feod !b as im portant at when she is giving milk. It is the opinion that Si worth of food when the cow is dry is worth SI. 50 when she comes in. An animal in poor condition uinnnt digest as much food as an animal in good condition. If tho cow is poor when sho comes in she will rot digest enough food to support the syftem and, at tho samo time, to make a largo quantity of milk. System is buio to tell, nnd heavily, too, in farming, and the successful farmor is the one who maps out, in the winter, his whole campaign for tho ensuing season. When spring opens he knows just where and how to cum inruce, and it is not at alt pushed with hi work. If all our fanners, who now "take things as they como " would only look ahead a little, they need not be continually behind hand with their work, as they often are when the spring lias only fairly commenced and all through the subsequent season. It may setm impossible to some to do this planning successfully, yet a littlo experience will enablo any ono to do it, with varyinir degrees of success and we sincerely hope that our readers will at once net on our suggestion, and thus save themselves much annoyanco nnd trouble, as well as considerable useless expense, Maitin S.
