A WONDERFUL TRIP.
FROM BUFFLo. TO DETROIT AND RE-
TURN BY ICE BOAT.

I
TURN By ICE BOAT.
The Silver Greek (New York; Lo.
cal publishes the following interesting
story:
When Captain J. B. Window o.
Buffalo invited us 10 accompany him :
trip per ice boat around Lake Erie
nothing was left for. us to do but sub
init, 1t was a novelty, and that's
what we are on the look out for; so we
took the accommodation to Buffalo
last Friday morning, and on our arri.
val in the city were conducted by the
jovial captain to his handsome little
boat, the kris Kringle," which was
anchored just outside the breakwater.
Captain Window built the "Kringle',
for his own pleasure and comfort, and
1t is fitted out in elegant style, having
all the conveniences of the summer
excursion boat on a small scale.
At p. m. Friday word was given
to haul in the gang plank, and min
utes later, with fair wind, we were
whizzing over the frozen surface of
Lake Erie with the rapidity of a pro-
fessional base ballist trying to reach
the home base. An hour and ten
minutes by the time piece in the cabin
OF the ''Kringle" were consumed in
in making the ''only city" in Caautau-
qua county-a distance Of forty miles.
Remarks on Dunkirk are unneces>
slry.
An hours stay in the hayssed city
and we were again on our way, and it
was a hard road to travel from Dun
kirk to Erie. Rough ice and battling
winds, with binding snow storm,
perplexed us, and made the captain
use words that we were not in the
habit of hearing. He made his devo-
tions very emphatic at TIMES. 1t was
unpleasant. But Erie hove in sight in
due time, and there we put up for the
night.
Eight o'clock Saturday morning
found us again ready to start. The
storm had passed over, and the sun
shone brilliantly, while a stiff breeze
from the southwest sent the little boat
Tying before t IN way that would
astonish the fleet footed quadrupeds
driven by the mythical old gentleman
after whom the boat was named. 1t
is truly wonderful what time can be
made by an ice boat. An idea can be
formed when we say that the time con-
sumed in going from Erie to Cleveland
a distance of ninety five miles, was |
hour and % minutes.
Toledo we gave the go by, and land
ed safely in Detroit Sunday afternoon
Monday at noon we started for home |
along the north shofe-Canada. All |
the way along it locked as if the pee
pie could find nothing TO eat but iclcles
and blizzard sauce. We don't want
to live in Canada. After an eleven
hour sail the clock in the city hall at
Buffalo was sighted, and at precisely
,welve o'clock Monday night the Kris
Aringle was again at her moorings in
he Buffalo breakwater having made
me of the fastest trips-actual running
j iIne--on record.

In our daylight world. Owing to the
warmth of the old levels and TO the
presence Ia them of a certain amount of
moisture, the timbers have been made to
grow some curious crops. Some of the
fungi in the old cham bers are several
feet n height aud being snow white, re.
sem ble shested ghosts.

representations of goats with long boards

The GREAT FARM.-The famous
Dalrymple farm of $4,000 acres in Da-
kota, is really made up of smaller
farms, with separate ownerships; but
all under the management of Oliver
Dalrymple, who owns 1000 acres out
right, and is likely to soon become a
half owner of the rest. When he as
sumed charge the proprietors of the
various tracts put in the land at fair
valuation and money enough to improve
it, charging eight per cent. on the whole
investment. The important provision
was that wherever the profits reached
over and above the eight per cent. a
year, a sum sufficient to repay the en-
tire outlay, half the land should be his
At the time it was not supposed that
much, if any more than The promised
percentage could be derived from the
farm, but the crops have been heavy,
and nothing but serious mishap will
prevent DalrYmple from realizing his
hopes within two or three years.

He Saw the Difference.

When Mr.. Topnoody came home the
other night he noticed that his wife was
so unusually polite and nice that he
wondered if he hadn't got into the
wrong house. After supper she called
him upstairs and said:
"Mr. Topnoody, / have a serious
matter to present to you this evening,
and at the same time one not unmixed
with JOY"
"Great Caesar |" replied Mr.. T.,
"what's the matter? Have / forgotten
anything?"
"No, not that, Topnoody."
"Well, then, be quick, and tell me
what's come unfastened."
"Why, Topnoody, you see our Oldest
daughter is just twenty now, and she
told me that Mr.. Jones, the rich mer-
chants son. had asked her to be his
wife, and you know they love each
other and want us to agree to it. What
do you say, Mr.. Topnoody?" and his
wife looked pleased all over at the fine
prospect. But Topnoody was grave.
81 see, Mrs. Topnoody; but after all
your experience in the married life with
me, and your evident sorrows of house
keeping and all that, L am surprised
that you should be willing to LET your
daughter get in the same box"
"Pshaw, Topnoody," answered his
wife, bracing up and getting mad,
"don't be fool. The cases are not
similar. My daughter is marrying a
Mr.. Jones, while 1 married Topnoody.
l should think you could see the differ
ence at once without making such q
foolish suggestion to me. Now, if
were"
"Hold on" broke in Topnoody, 81
grasp ii; go and tell the girl to marry
just as often as she pleases and who she
pleases. Jones is getting Topnoody
anyhow, and I guess the reputation OF
the family will be kept up" The cards
will be issued in November.
