buy a new bridge at oace to cover the gap.Up at Skerry there was a huge slide ofsnow and ice from a steep hill down uponthe residence of Newell TarbelL which wasmore or less wrecked, partitions beingwarped and torn and floors covered withice and Snow. The wall of snow was tenfeet high and struck the dwelling withoutwarning, tearing away windows and cas-ings, and leaving nothing in the houseundamaged. A table and stove weredriven through one of the partitions, anda carpet and bed were carried to the ceil-ing and fastened there. Strange to say,Mr. and Mrs. Tarbell were but slightlyhurt. The tool house on the place was de-molished, and hen house, weU house andshed were pretty thoroughly smashed up.At Ft. Govingtonand Dundee waefeseriousdamage was anticipated there was littletrouble. The water backed up and enter-ed some houses along tbe river and therailroad bridge was covered, but the floodquickly receded and left no permanent in-jury. Three private bridges were carriedaway by the river at Westvffle Corners.Near Alburfeh, on the N. Y. & O. R. R ,there was a considerable washout whichstopped ali trains, though there was noaccideut. At South Bombay the newdam ereeted by George W, Russell for hisgrist mill last fall at an expense of nearly#1,000 was washed away. In eome sec-tions the horses got into water so deepthat only by great effort were they keptfrom drowning. One horse was drownednear Chateaugay, ami at another pointnear Malone after hours of work a horsehad to be left in the Icy water over night.Part of the apron at Ladd & Smallnaan'sdam in this village was taken away by ice,

Wallace H. Jones, for many years awell-known and respected farmer of Ma-ione, died at Bustle Lodge in the Adiron-dacks, the home of his danghter, Mrs. C.H. Wardner, on Thursday last, aged nearly76" years, after an. illness extending overseveral months. Mr. Jones lost his wifelast May, who had been his companion formany years. The loss broke his spirit audhis health and he failed rapidly. LastOctober, being quite feeble, he went toBustle Lodge to spend the winter. Lateron he took to his bed, to which be hadbeen confined for the past three months.A paralytic shock a few days before hisdeath was undoubtedly the cause of hisdemise. He was born in Westville butmoved to Malone early in life and hadever slnee resided here, making him oneof the oldest of the town's remaining res-idents, and until very recently bis remem-braDce of tbe early history of the placewas clear and vivid. It was a pleasure tolisten to his recital of events occurring inthe early history of our village. He wasa man of keen judgment, prudent, frugaland honorable in all his transactions. Inpolitics he was an uncompromising Be-publican and held the office of highwaycemmifisioner for two terms about 20 yearsago, in which he made an excellent record.He personally conducted his farm in theBassett neighborhood for 40 odd years,only a few short time removing to this vil-lage and establishing his home on Duanestreet.

exhorbitant rates for an exceedingly poorwater supply, but have imposed an addi-tional and separate tax on the taxpayersevery year to pay bonds, interest and otherexpenses of maintenance." Says thatpaper, "This is one concrete and forcibleexample of municipal ownership which weall know about." Herkimer tried themunicipal lighting experiment in a mo-ment of temporary insanity and it has notonly proved far from being a success, butinstead of providing cheaper lights it coststhat place about $80 per light for itsstreets. Malone's rate is $50 for all nigfitand every night service. In the city ofSyracuse they are investigating the coet oflights and gathering figures from some 50cities in the United States preparatory tomaking next year a new lighting contract.Syracuse is now paying $85.78 per arclight for its streets. It has found that bythe statement of the Detroit municipalplant, which seems to be very completeand covers depreciation of investment,:discarded machinery and Interest, as wellas operating disbursements, tbe rate is§61.65 per arc light. The Baltimore rate iis now ?<>7.49. It was formerly f 127,73.The city is undoubtedly lighted by con-;tract, but, however that may be, Malone'S jrate is not only far below the average, but!is among the lowest quoted in the whole ;United States either from municipal or jprivate ownership. Public managementis expensive and improvements come slow- \ly, so that, whether it be water or light,;municipal ownership is not desteable for !two reasons^ viz: It "is expensive if proper- Ily conducted, and the tendency is to proveboth expensive and poor in service. Privatecapital is always ready to install improve-ments that will bring dividends. Thepublic is generally willing to suffer many, ^breakers alone, while whatinconveniences rather than fish down intu-its pockets to pay taxes. That accountsfor t he failure of many Northern NewYork towns to get rid of a disease-infectedwater supply and secure water by pipelines from the fountain heads ot thestreams/- Though it is cheaper in the end
the plant, the public, horrified by fear oftaxation, is bound to temporize and keeppatting money into purapiog stations audfurafehing water for domestic purposes

The man who did it was a six footer.broad shoulders and with a slender waist.When he removed his hat it was seen thatthe scanty fringe of hair remaining wastinged with gray, and below this was acolorless, thin face, but with a bulldogchin, thin lips only partly concealed by ablack moustache and through all shone apair of opaque blue eyes.

Hi? voice as he speaks over the tele-phone is level aDd unemotional. He doesnot waste words, bnt everything is pre-ceded by 'Now you,' and it is 'Do this'and 'Do that.' Farley took his seat at hisroll top desk Monday night about 10:00o'clock and, except for a flying trip overthe subway and 'L' systems, he did notleave it bat for four hours until the fol-lowing Thursday evening. The four hoursrepresented the sleep he took in that time.He took his meals with one hand ^vhiieholding a telephone receiver with theother; he changed his linea iu the sameway. From one corner of his montb h&would give directions to the three officeassistants while he talked over the linewith the other.
