Christuas Tide.

Christmas was heartily OBJ
served in Carson. Despite the
hard times, the liberal observ-
ances of the day were not for
gotten and gifts were disposed
of on all sides with a lavish
hand. The churches observed
the day with special services.
There was Christmas Mass at
the Catholic church with fine
music. There was a special
service at the Episcopal church
with an augmented choir and
anthems. The MethOdists had 4
Christmas log cabin attended by
a crowd of delighted children,
and the Presbyterians had a
beautiful Christmas tree loaded
down with seasonab!e fruit and
surrounded by a circle of eX-
pectant youngsters. The secular
portion Of the community spent
the day in the usual fashion,
abstaining from work and eating
and drinking literally. The
weather was like Summer and
the day was enjoyed alike by
all classes.
Dissatisfied Firemen.

tuitous labors in putting out
fires. They claim that their
ball only just about cleared ex-

they were charged with having

They say they spoil a suit of
clothes at each fire, contract
fall through roofs and
get run over by trucks and only
get cursed for their pains. A
meeting is called for this even
ing, when the subject will be
discussed. Thirteen of the |
company talk of resigning and
allowing the "feather-bed fire.

Th- pantmIOOns of p. ivate Hin.s
The pantalpons Of Baron Bredow is tn,
name Of very interesting novel by Willibao
\lexis, which was the foundation Of the fams
as a writer of VIM. Haerlng, till then hardly
known. OF course these were pants of n"
bleman and could be made the theme to write
something interesting about, but after all
pants are but pans and certain things may
happen to any man who wears them, whether
he is of noble or pebleian origin.
However famous The AIT, o Baron Bre-
dow have become through Willibald Alesi,,
the pants of the American soldier Hines art
far more famous. although they have not lound
yet either Homer ora I1aering to sing OIL
write them up.
And if slanderous world tries to behtle
the 47th Cong ess saying that they have done
alb ,outely nothing, there is the simple answer
this, what for the last ten or twelve years NJ
Congress was aller 10 d" we have done: VT
have settled the long pending question, wheth'
er Hines shall have new pants.
his ALTAR dates back t. the time Of the
carpet. bagger Private Hines, who belonged
to company of Federal troops, sta,ione.
somewhere in the south. one night lost his
pants and in due order reported his loss to his
superior, who sent the report on and in the
| he course of routine the matter reached the
office Of sthe quarermaster general. Mean
while Hines however. received new pants,
but above said office all the time busted their
minds over the thought how to charge these
pants They could not we'll be charged to the
soldier. but at the same lime the .. NJ. could
not furnish him with two pair of pants, when
he was entitled only to one pair.
Out of this dilemma congress only could
give help.
Thus it happened, that in the 39rh
or 10th congress, that is about thir-
teen or fourteen years ago, a re-
lief bill was introduced into the house to
furn.h private Hines pair of pants. The
value of the whole object is at the highest es-
innate ten dollars. but nevertheless thirteen
years and eight sessions OF congress tried their
wisdom on this bill, The greatest statesmen

occupied their time with this c,mmon soldier S
pants.
Now let anybody dare and say our congress
wastes millions. when il took eight sessions of
Congress. the wisdom vt S7a statesmen to APP
prove the expense Of $40. and We hope not to
hear any more about the 47th congress not
having done anything. 1t is true they have left
many things undone, which 'ught to have
been done. but they achieved what nine pre-
ceeding sessions were unable to do--tnev have
paid for the pantaloons OF private Hines.
What meanwhile has become of the
unfortunate Hines we do not know. Possibly
he died from old age or fell with Custer. or
deserted. or in sheer pantaoonless desperation
has Joined the Scottish fIighlanders or the
Zulus, bu, possibly he is no longer soldier
for many years. while the pants Of the soldier
Hines are busily engaging the brains of the
lawmakers of the nation.

THE STAR ROUTES.
Their Cost at Present as Compared With
That Under Brady.

WASHINGTON, July 2i.--In re-
Spouse to an application from the
Governments counsel in the Star
Route eases, Second Assistant Post
master General Elmer has prepared a
statement of the cost Of the star
Route mail service for the fiscal Years
1876 to 1882, inclusive, in the States
OF Louisiana, Texas, Kansas, Nc
braska, Colorado, Oregon, Nevada
and California, and the Territories of
Montana. New Mexico, Arizona,
Utah, Idaho and W Washington. The
annual cost at present is S2,ol S,635.
This table covers one contract term
and half of a preceding term. The
previous contract term ended June
30, 1873, when the cost was $a,944 :
O49; the new term began on the fol
lowing day, July, 1878. One year
afterwarl the cost had been raised
by Brady to $3,535,5G6, and at the
end of the second year Of the term
another million had been added. The
term OF four years ended on June 80,
1882, and on that day the annual cost
was only s2,s17,2o9, owing to the re-
luction made by an honest admins
tration. The next term began July

RIVER BUSINESS.

The navigation of the Mississippi river
closed practically on the 18th November by
the departure from st. Paul, for St. Louis,
of the Grand Pacific steamboat. The
river remained open, however, till about
the middle of December and there was
nothing to prevent the steamboats, from
running just as usual every day in the
week. So far as can be learned from the
river men the year has been a very pros
porous one indeed. Atno time in the last
eight or ten years, since the railroads have
trenched upon the business of the river
has the business been so good as it was
during the year 1882. This, toe, in the face
of the fact that owing to the late cold
spring the season was shortened up very
materially, and travel from the South
to the North did not begin till nearly mid
summer Two lines-the Diamond 10,
and the Electric line, the latter belonging
to Commodore Davidson-have been the
only regular through traffic lines from st.
Paul to st. Louis. Other boats have come
through from various points along the
Mississippi, and carried a considerable
amount Of freight and passengers. Special
mention is made only of these two regula,
lines. It is altogether probable that next
year there will be a much larger number

Como Park.

This is the only park ever purchased BY
the city. The grounds, some 800 acres in
extent, were purchased in 1873, tho city is
suing it's bonds in the sum of 100000 70,
the Same. So far no attempt has been
made to improve or adorn it, if We except
the building of the workhouse, which il
built upon the grounds. The work Of i'm
proving it will be commenced in 1883, but
it will take years to finish it up, as it ia
susceptible of any amount of improve
ment. The grounds will be laid out this
year by landscape artist under Mr.. Van
Sykes supervision. Roads or driveways
will be land out, and for the improvement
of the same, the labor from the workhouse
will be utilized as far as possible.
In addition to the above there are num-
Der of small private parks scattered in
different parts of the city, all of which are
more or less improved; among which may
be mentioned Kelly's park on Dayton
bluff, Cullen park on St. Anthony hill
Dawson's park in West st. Paul, Mayor
Rice's park, Merriam & Thompson's parl
in lower town, and some others not now re-
called. In conclusion it is safe to predict
that the year 1883 will show a wonderful
progress in the line of park improvements
and adornments.
