genuine Mr.. Barrett, however, called on
Saturday to say that he was still in the
flesh, and in the enjoyment of excellent
health, albeit he was not greatly enter
tanned at reading his own obituary. The
letter it turns out was shabby hoax.
He forgot that Wabashaw street in spots
was clad in a macadamization of liquid
mud and started over, hazard to over
haul his friend Perkins from Duluth, to
ask him when he thought navigation would
open on the Superior. He struck the CEN
tersbut stopped to reconsider, while Per
kins sped on out of hearing, and he sor-
rowfnlly came to land with bedraggled
rubber in each hand looking anxlously for
boot black to make him again presenta-

Clerk of the Supreme Court Samuel
Nichols, just returned from the funeral Of
his father-in-law at Byron, in the southern
part of this state, says the Northwestern
railroad is so thoroughly employed in put
ting through its emigration freight and
passenger trains loaded with multitudes of
people bound to Dakota with their houses
in frame, furniture, agricultural imple-
ments, horses and cattle, that the running
of their regular passenger trains is badly
interfered with. He reports the season
very much earlier in st. Paul than in the
southern part of the state.
The ice in the river above the Wabashaw
street bridge moved great deal yester-
day, and during the afternoon drifted
against the staging built up from the river
bottom, upon which the frame work of the
bridge rests. For many hundred yards
above the bridge there is an open space,
but there is good deal of ice still further
above that is liable to come down at any
time. If it should come with a rush it
would be likely to carry away either a por-
ton or the whole of the staging. In case
the staging should be carried away the
bridge would be greatly weakened, and it
Is the opinion of those competent to judge
that some of the spans have not sufficient
strength to hold themselves in their place.
Through the charitable efforts of Adjutant
General Hawley he has procured free
transportation to, and an entrance into the
Milwaukee Soldiers home for Andrew St.
Jean, of New Canada, a poor, homeless,
broken down in health soldier of the old
Fifth Minnesota regiment, who was IA
miliarly known in the ranks as 'Old St.
Jake" Since Gen. Hawley has come into
Office he has procured the entrance of eight
Minnesota soldiers into the home, where
but three had previously been thus pro-
vided for, and in this has been doing a
work for which he is entitled to public
thanks. Application has also been made
to secure retreat in this home for Selig
Philipson of st. Paul.
