Davenporters are paying dearly
for their skating parks. Il will be rememc
bered that these parks were constructed on
the river BY clearing away the snow and
flooding the ice with water when it becomes
rough. Repeated foodings and freezings
added to the thickness Of the ice, and me
consequence is that it is now so thick it is
difficult to break eup. The, whole mass,
about ten acres in extent, foated off in
body, lodging on an island below the city,
and completely blockading the channel. It
now remains i'm that condition, and from
present appearances navigstioH will open. to
that city sometime before the first of. July.

had foolishly hidden his money Is, 20O) in q
wheat bin, and having bargained, for, the;
mill went to get it, but found it missing.
His grief was frantic, but awaited nothing
in the recovery Of this treasure. He hur-
riedlys sent to Maj. EWagoner an, offer Of
ST 900 reward if he would get the money,
for him; but before any action in the pre-,
misses commenced, the mills were seriously
by the food, and Mrs. Eadyy's ap-
prehensions about the proposed bad trade
having vanished, the money came to light,
not dollar missing. And this is one in
stance where q woman's curiosity and med
ding did some good. ~, ..,;, -.
