The river is not frozen up yet strong
enough for teams to cross, but foot pas
sengers cross in safety. Some gentlemen
who had been testing the ''auids," at the
saloon, succeeded in becoming slightly
elevated, and in attempting to cross the
plank from the shore to the ice, lost their
balance and "tested' the depth Of the wa
ter, which unfortunately had not been
mixed with whisky. One struck out for
the ice and the other for tue shore, which
they reached in safety. A fat hog. Dress
ed, which they we're taking along, was fast
making its way with the current, when
the man on the ice reached out, rather
helplessly, saying: ."Can ary borry reach
'er ,og!" Tho bystanders saved Ger 'og"
and tho party went Oh their way sadder
and wetter men. XII.

successive number. Other magazines may
preserve the same tone, the same features,
the same style, (never rising above the

An exchange says :

The report of the commissioner of
internal revenue shows that over Jour-
teen million dollars have been expended
in Minnesota alone during the past year
for alcoholic liquors. This is vastly more
than the cost Of the bread consumed By
the people. Estimating our populst;on
ut 100000 large estimate-th;s
would give $35 worth Of whiskey pcr
annum to each man, woman and child
in the state, or about SITS to each
adult male.
This is certainly worth thinking
over: III r.

''Instsad Of making New Years calls,

exceedingly pleasant custom, and is quite
worthy ofNew York. We protest against
thus virtually yielding to incidence the
aratifcation Of at least one day in the

your lady friends. It is too good to be
handed over to . servant with card or to
Uncle Sans mail. There is also another
feature Of the custom, which cards never
could serve, that We need not more thus
hint at-all gentlemen will appreciate It.
On New Years day, take your cards your.
