THE PATTER OF THE sHINGLE.

THE PATTER OF THE sHINGLE
When the angry passion gathering
In my mo-her's face | see,
And she leads me to the bedroom,
Gently lays me on her knee,
Then know that will catci, it,
And ms flesh in Iancy itchcs,
As | listen for the patter
OF the shlnglc OH my brecciics.
Every tinkle of the slingle
Has an echo and a sting,
And thousand bnrninn fancics
Into active being spring;
And thousand bees and hornets
Meath my coat tail seem to swarm,
As listen TO the pattcr
of the Single, oh, SO warm!
In sudden iutcrmisSiou,
Which appears my only chance,
] say: "Strike gently, mother,
Or you'll split my Sunday pants"
Size stops moment, draws her breath
The single holds aloft,
And says: 81 had not thought of that
My son just take them off,"
Holy Moses! and the angels,
Cast thy plying glances DOWN.
And thou, o, family doctor,
Put good soft ponltice on;
And may with fools and ounces
INCREASINGLY mingle,
II ever say a word, when
My mother yields the single.

A SPLENDID EXHIBIT.
BEING ONE THAT THE LADIES WILL BE IN
TERESTED IN.

Torrison's store will be center of at
traction for the next few weeks to those
ladies who, even if they do not purchase,
take pleasure in looking over and admir-
ing the most beautiful display of Cloaks,
Dolmans, Paletotts, Russian Circulars,
etc., ever shown in Manitowoc. The
stock embraces about three hundred and
fifty garments, all of the latest STYLES,
with plush, satin marveilleaux and fur
trimming-an assortment to please every
taste and at prices ranging from the low
est to the highest priced. Mr.. Torrison
accounts for the large number purchased
on the very common sense principle that
by such large purchases he is enabled to
secure much lower prices than when only
few garments are taken, a circumstance
which he is willing to give his customers
the advantage of. He has taken partic-
ular pains to select stock which will
please his trade and invites an examina-
ton, feeling confident that he can save
purchasers at least 25 per cent. in price.
He claims to have the largest and finest
stock in the city and to see them one
readily admits that finer goods for the
price cannot be manufactured. He also
has stock of childrens' clothes to which
attention is invited. Call and examine
these bargains before purchasing. 10

NELSON-MARTIN.--O Thursday evening in
this city, by Rev. j. II. Craig, Mr.. julie Nelson
and Miss Carrie Martin,
If heaven be place where good counsels pre-
vail, then the marriage announced above is proof
that matches are made there. Each of the parties
to this contract is deserving of an excellent life
partner and consequently in the consummation
of this event each is admirably suited. Mr.. Mel
son has grown up IN this city and in his growth
to manhood has built up his fortunes until now,
possessed both of youth and manly vigor, he en-
joys competence, the result of his own labors
His bride is young lady as richly endowed
with excellent traits of character ss with personal
attractions. She has won the friendship of her
every acquaintance by her amiable disposition
and genuine kinuness of heart. When we wish
them happiness it is not mere dismissal formul-
ated by the editorial pen, but sincere express
sion of hearty good will,

THERE was but very small audience
at the concert on Friday night. The
entertainment was not properly adver-
tised. The local papers have always
manifested a willingness to do what is in
their power to further the interests of
the library and the present Instance was
no exception. But for some reason all
knowledge of the concert was kept from
them. The Hittner family are certainly
very talented and capable of entertaining
cultured audience.

A South side man got on cargo of
north side whiskey on Tuesday night
and set out for home. He thought if
there was not bridge on 9th street
there ought to be, or perhaps he had
enough of ''spirits made perfect" in him
to attempt miracle. At any rate he
essayed to cross the river there and
tumbled in. His south side slogan rent
the sky and brought a party to his
relief and he was dragged out thoroughly
sobered and soaked.
We understand some law officers are
going to proceed against the rescuing
party for unwarrantably interfering with
their legitimate business in rescuing the
man. An inquest was spoiled by the
inopportune arrival of Pat Sullivan with
posse. 1t would be no easy matter to
determine in what ward the fellow met
his death, as the river is an uncertain
boundary and every justice in the city
might claim jurisdiction and .swhoop it
up" right lively on the body.

A POSTMASTER and his wife Julia,

are on trial before the United States
District Court for opening love letters
passing through the mails. Now if the
postmaster was young fellow and had
burning desire to learn in what language
he could best express his love, the
learned judge should forgive him and
present him with letter writer. But
he had been there and had all the ex-
perience his necessities demanded and
he had no business to peep into other
peoples love affairs. A young lady
mighty demure in most things will kick
like q roebuck if an attempt is made to
catch her fellows sweetness on the fly.

GEORGE END of Sheboygan says he is
personally and strongly in favor of the
nomination of Mr.. Luling by the repub-
icans for congress. Mr.. Luling, we
believe, would offer the same objections
TO being candidate that Mr.. End does,
lack of time. Besides he never took
kindly to running for Office and prefers
to make politics an amusement rather
than business. Mr.. Luling is too
good a man to make the leader of a
forlorn hope against an adverse majority
of 5000.
