City Editor McWade's room is a
perfect gem. 1t is carpeted with a
beautiful Administer and hung with
old gold tapestry curtains, suspended
on brass rings from bars of beaten
copper the folds being caught up with
massive brass rings. The chairs are
Of Austrian bent wood, and the
rocker is wonder of ease and ele-
gance, The city editors desk, ex-
pressly designed for its purpose, is a
marvel OF drawers, pigeon holes, etc.

Mukeuge, while wlssmann With soms
difficulty succeeded in making his
way to the East Coast. He says.
From the Lubi as far as Lake Tan
ganyika | met with remains of the
Batua, whe seem to be the real abor-
igiues. In tiny and ill-constructed
straw huts, despised by the Baluba
tribes, these small, ill.shspen, attenu-
ated, dipsy and wild looking people
live. They do not grow anything, nor
do they keep pigs or goats, hut only a
few fowls, living for the rest upon
wild fruits and the game they kill.
They have a peculiar language, and
their weapons and instruments are of
very inferior kind. Iron arrow
points are, however, sometimes found
in their possession, and they train a
kind OF greyhound for hunting.
Wissmann formed a very good opin-
ion OF the warlike King Miranda,
whom he visited in August, after a
pleasant stay with the Rev. - Grit
fifth at Ruanda, near Tangahyika, and
who treated him to two bottles VI
champagne. After a visit to the
French missionaries at Tabora, and to
DR.. Bohm and DR.. Reichardt at
GOnda, he enjoyed soRe good shooting,
and on November II, 1882, be EN-
barkei for Suez at Zanzibar.
OfDr. Pogge's safe return to King
Mukenge we have heard nothing as
yet; but the Berlin Geographical
Society is in hopes that he has founded
a station there. and that we NAV any
day hear of his arrival at Loanda on
his way homeward. Wissmann ar
rived at Cairo on New Years Day, on
the very same day as Mr.. Joseph

toba." Oh course you don't. When
you see men shutting along Main
street as fast as they can shuttle; their
fur caps pulled down over their eyes
and ears; their faces covered with
mufiers; their bodies wrapped up in
heavy furs; warm moecasins on their
feet, fur gloves on their hands, and
for all that, with a huge hump on their
backs, you are not to suppose they go
about like that because they feel the
cold. Not bit of it. It's the won
derful enthusiasm produced by the
ozone in the air of Manitoba which
makes the people just a triAe eccen>
tric. When you see man leaning up
against fence or the side of house
to thaw out, ne isn't cold. It's
nothing but that COMPOUNDED ozone in
the air stirring up his enthusiasm
again. No one ever feels cold here,
the atmosphere is so dry, so kracing,
so exhilarating, SO utterly too too in
its vigor, that people merely light
stoves and burn Goals out of pure
compassion for the coal dealers, who
have got to live just like others.
When the mercury goes below forty
degrees below zero, as it did last night,
it isn't cold. It's only just beginning
to feel warm then, and all this talk
about frozen ears and noses, blistered
fingers and hands, is only INDUCED in
by spiteful people, jealous of the ozone
in our atmosphere. You don't feel
the cold in Manitoba. Never lose sight
of that one solid fact. tits truer than
the gospels of Ecclesiasticus, and
when some poor fellow gets frozen to
death on the prairie rest assured that
he never felt it, but just laid down out
Of pure spite and died When you
are told over fifty times a day on the
street, by passing friends and acquaint-
ances, that tits singer" you must
remember that they are referring to
some by.gone event, which happened
before you we're born, and means no
reference whatever to the wonderful
ozone of Manitoba.
Last night was the warmest expert
enccd in Winnipeg for a century. The
fact that the mercury froze in many
thermometers was nothing but the
mean, wretched spite which effects
even thermometers. They knew it
was warm, pleasant night, but the
ozone affected even their enthusiasm,
and they had to do something eccen.

winter yet. Nothing but ozone and
enthusiasm.

Judge Higley Yesterday morning
considered the cases OF Katie CASTILLO
and Clara Haney, aged respectfully
fifteen and,sixteen,years who went to a
disreputable ball Saturday night with
their escorts, James Quinn and fel.
low By the name OF Vouderheide
Mrs. CASTILLO had her daughter
arrested on the charge of inoorrigibil-
ty and the man of seduction. 1t ap-
pears, however, that she has no re.
dress. Adultery in this State is not
a crime on the statutes, and there can
be no seduction, unless it is accom-
panied by a promise of mar.
riage. Judge Higley advised
the mothers Of the ruined girls to
have their sons or husbands force the
men to marry their victims by the
moral suasion that a cowhide or a pis-
toll exercises, or take the Jaw in their
own hands and give the despoilers the
thrashing they ever had in
their lives. For a week the CASTILLO
girl will be in the House of Refuge,
then she will be brought back to the
Police Court to have her case finally
disposed of. The other is in her
parents charge.
In speaking OF the case, Judge
Higley said: II have found, in my
experience as Police Judge, that han.
dreds of the depraved women who
have been brought before me have
been led astray by these means. They
are excited by the movements of the
waltz, impassioned by the music, all
sense of what is proper has been re-
moved by what they have drank, and
before they know 1t they have fallen,
and the worst of it is that it is some>
thing which the law cannot at present
touch"
