CIVIL RIGHTS.

WIN hA1hAos
The question of civil rights, promises to
become violent wrongs, and if those
whom the rights were Intended to bene-
fit, fail to act civilly under them, vio-
lence and wrong will certainly follow.
Thus far, nobody has been seriously
harmed in this city, although few dar-
kies have, at the instignatiOn of shyster
lawyers in search of case. permitted
themselves to become the dupes of these
seedy attorneys. One of these colored
men, so influenced, went into the best
barber shop in this city, the proprietor
of which is a handsome yellow fellow,
nearly the color of clay, and said to be
a near relative of one of our most emf
Inent statesmen, now deceased. He ap-
piled for a shave, and was refused upon
the ground that common white folks
can't get shaved in this emporium of art,
and low niggers can't come In no-how. -
The colored applicant for a shave, was
not gentleman likely to favorably i'm
press the tontorial artist, and he was
therefore requested to leave. 81 prose-

grieved hastily handing him % cent

About week was spent in futile ef-
forts, by our city authorities to blow up
the ice in the Schuylkill river, in order
to save the bridges from destruction. A
great many pounds of powder we're ex-
ploded in this way to the delight of the
urchins whose taste for squibs, and
crackers, and powder. seems never to
be appeased The ice gorge in our
river is above Fairmount dam. This
dam is at the head Of tide water in the
Schuylkill, and was built for the purpose
of supplying our city with water. Com
Imencing at the dam ON either side of the
giver Fairmount Park extends upwards
for several miles. The Park is managed
by commission of aristocratic nonenti-
ties, who, i'll what they regarded as an
act Of superlative wisdom, prohibited
our ice companies from cutting any ice
in the river fronting the Park Grounds.
1 differ with the Park Commissioners.
and regard their ''superlatives wisdom"
the must arrogant nonsense. It preven-
ted the employment of from 300 to 400
laborers cutting ice for month ormore,
and it forces the purchase of $500, 600
worth of ice from New England. If the
Mayor had pat pound of powderin the
empty cavities Of the heads Of the Park
Commissioners, where brains ought to
be, and set fire to it, he would have done
much wiser thing than attempting to
blow up an ice gorge with porter bottles
filled with blasting powder. BY doing
so, he would rid our city of a set of old
fossilized antediluvians, the city would
save her half million dollars for Yankee
ice, and the ice gorge would be nicely
stored away for use next summer.

PRIVATE ENTERTAINMENT,

A BAsTARDY case occupied a consider
able portion of Justice VIM. Glover's
attention during last Monday and Tues
day. Mary Tegge, g rather cookbook
ing girl of fifteen years caused the arrest,
a short time since, of Peter Peterson, a
festive youth of this city, who, she
swore, was the father of an illegitimate
girl baby which was produced in court,
said baby having been ushered into this
world Oh the 18th of December, having
first seen the light of day in Appleton,
where the mother went to remain during
her confinement.
Mary testified that about year ago
last Christmas she was asked to pass
several evenings at the house Of Peter
sons parants, the object being to pro-
vide such social amusements for Peter
as would induce him to stay at home
evenings instead of visiting saloons and
bad places, as he was accustomed to do
that while thus visiting there she was
seduced by the young man, and subse-
quently gave birth to child on the day
above mentioned.
It is not to be presumed, of course,
that Peterson's parents were DESTROYS of
providing just such an entertainment
for their son, but the facts in this case
go to show that he fully appreciated
their kindness and doubtless felt at
liberty to go his whole length on the
pleasures the occasion offered and the
same will be warning to parents not to
get passably good-looking girls into the
family as an incentive to refrain from
Indulgence in the sins Of the world as
found in saloons and other public places.
And Peter. though we have not heard
Of his writing to friend and saying
81 even wish I were dead" probably is
ready to acknowledge the truth of the
old saying to the effect that che who

The Court was so thoroughly con-
WINGED that the young man was guilty
OF the charge preferred against him that
it thought it necessary to bind him over
until the next session of the Circuit
Court, and the prisoner giving bonds
for his appearance at the time stated, he
Eas allowed to retire.

BETWEEN the hours of one and two
last Friday afternoon the story-and-a-
half frame dwelling house of Edward
Juel, on Marshall Street, was discovered
to be in flames. The alarm was sounded
and the steamer was soon in position at
the cistern in the First Ward. from
whence two streams were thrown upon
the burning building, quenching the
flames before the structure was entirely
consumed, but not before loss of $3.50
or $500 had been sustained. It is
thought the cause Of the conhagration
was the careless handling of matches by
some children in one of the upper
rooms. There was no insurance. Mr.
JueI informs us that the steamer, taken
from the engine house on the North
Side, was in working order before the
Torrent engine, which is located just
across the street from the burned pro-
perty, had got ready, which indicates q
fault on the part of some one which
should be investigated.

MARDI GRAS.
M0MUS TO HOLD HIGH CARNIVAL
Turner Hall, next Tuesday night,
will be the Scene of Fun, Frol-
io and Glorious Mystif-
cations.
You Must All Go and Help the Fun
Along.

from the immemorial it has been Gus
tomary to crowd pleasure and amuse-
ment into the period of time between
New Years and Lent. The lenten sea-
son of forty days before Easter, has
been appointed by the, church as q
period of abstinence and prayer, IN COM
menoration Of the Savior's fasting, and
temptation by Satan In the desert, as
well as His passion. Considering then
that church SIS well as custom has made
it necessary to "keep low regarding
amusement and pleasure generally, for
forty days, nobody is blamed for having
all the fun they can, prior to lent.
The acme of the fun, however, is
reached On the Tuesday, or the last day
before lent, which commences OF Ash
Wednesday. The French call that day
Mordt Gras; the Germans Fastnacht !;
the ScandirIavians, Fastelavn the Itali-
ans, Cormascia1e; and it is celebrated
with all Kinds Of fun, ioity and num-
merry. Great license is allowed on that
occa sion. Men and women of high and
low degree meet on an equality. Cos
tdmes the most elegant and absurd are
seen. All, Or nearly all are masked or
disguised. Grand preparations have
been made in New Orleans and Mem
phis to make the day one to be remem-
bered till arrangements for the next
celebration drive all thoughts of the
past out of mind.
The Turner's and Sengerbund have
made arrangements for celebrating
lordt Gras in Manitowoc on quite an
extensive scale, next Tuesday. Great
fun Is anticipated. Only a small por-
ton Of the programme is published in
another column. It is impossible to
learn any particulars of what they are
going to do. They are awful sly about
the matter. We have tried threats, coax
ing, bribing, even gone so far as to kiss
babies, and make love to young ladies,
to get the coveted programme, but with
out success. Something big is in pre-
paration for next Tuesday night at
Turner Hall. We know from expert
ence, that there will be very demure
nuns performing the scalp dance with
Modoc Indians, flower girls with arti-
fetal flowers, the inevitable Uncle Sam,
negroes, peasants, priests drinking
lager beer, brigands, old ladies dressed
as little girls and uice versa.
We can promise every one who goes
a Jolly time. The expense will be light
only so cents. The livery men have
agreed to run buses for accommodation
of the public that night. By getting an
omnibus ticket at Klingbeil's book store,
the bus will call at any residence in the
city. Supper will be provided for by
F. Becker, the well-known caterer.
Everybody can expect grand and jolly

This January has been month Of
extreme severity, its average temperature
being only sc degrees, being 1873 de-
grees colder than Jan. 1874. The cold
est day was the 9th, which averaged 90
degrees below zero. The five coolest
days in the month were the 4th, 5th,
9th, 14th and 18th, having mean tenn
perature of between II and II degrees
below zero. On nineteen days has the

CLARK's MILLS.
The house just north of the post of
flee in this village, owned by Spencer
Clark and occupied by Knud JOINER,
was burned to the ground Sunday
evening, Jan. 31st. The fire originated
il the upper part of the building, from
the stove-pipe. Mr.. JOINER, with the
assistance of his neighbors, succeeded
in saving the most of his household
goods. The abundance of snow on the
roofs of adjacent buildings prevented
the fire from damaging other property.
The house was insured.
MIR. William Gary is suffering from
epileptic attacks.
The stage driver on the route from
Manitowoc to Kiel has proved himself
to be not exactly square-dealing man.
His manner of doing business is not
very convenient for those who may find
it necessary to deal with him. Mr..
Baldwin, of this place, sent money by
him last week to Manitowoc for sugar.
He returned with only part of the
bill, his excuse being that there was no
more sugar IN the store, but he would
bring the remainder the next day. Mr..
Baldwin sent bill for more groceries
by him, but he came back without any
thing, saying he had lost the letter but
if Mr.. 3. would give him another order
he would purchase the goods with his
own money. Mr.. Baldwin's suspicious
being aroused he wrote the proprietors
of the route, Messrs. Klingholtz & Co.
When they received the letter the stage
driver had been discharged and was
waiting at the station for the cars. He
was arrested and a watch taken from
him which was sold for the purpose of
paying Mr. Baldwin, but the watch has
since been found to be one sent by him
to Manitowoc for repairs.
