The Vyabashaw Street Bridge.

All yesterday forenoon there were good
many spectators on the Wabashaw street
bridge watching for the ice 80 move and
to see what effect its moving would have
upon the staging built up from the river
bottom upon which to sustain several of
the OGDEN spans. 1t is we'll known that
the city council has ordered these wooden
spans replaced with iron ones. During the
winter while the men could work upon the
ice these upright supports were put
in to aid in holding up the wooden
spans. At present they rest largely
upon these uprights, and Mr.. Somers
the city engineer expresses the
opinion that it is very doubtful if the
wooden spans would remain if the staging
beneath was removed. This being the
case there has been for some days a good
deal of solicltude in regard to the effect
the ice would have when it commenced to
move. Yesterday morning the sun came
out warm, and along towards noon there
was good deal of wind from the west,
both of which circumstances served to aid
in moving the ice. The wind drove
quartering across the river and generally
in down stream direction. This had
tendency to carry the ice over to
the south side of the stream,
where it lodged against the trestle work.
The wind continued to blow and the ice to
move slowly till it was for short time
stopped at the bridge. Finally the cur
rent on the north side, under the long iron
span, began to carryIthe ice through. When
it once got started it swept along smoothly
and easily and the whole river about half
past two o'clock was cleared of ice as far
up as the eye could see. After the river
was thus cleared large quantity of ice
was left lodged against the trestle work,
where it now remains, and it is not ex-
pected it will do any harm as it now stands.
If, however there should be a sudden rise
in the river, and large bodies of ice should
come down there might yet be great deal
of injury done.

Some men are born to fame and others
have it thrust upon them. Of the latter
may be mentioned the energetic and sue

We learn that Mr.. S. Spearin, of Farm
ington, recently purchased a very fine
Clydesdale stallion, one of the late i'm
portations by the Messrs. Powell Bros, of
Pennsylvania, the most extensive import
ers of this breed of horses in the country.
They rate Mr.. Spearin's purchase as one
of the very best of their impor5ations.
Such horse will be popular in Dakota
county.
NJ. T. G. and other writer's in the Breed
eT'S Gazette, have lately been discussing
the subject of the time of CESSATION in
mares. For their information we will re-
cord the fact that Lady Humboldt, owned
at Midway, has just dropped FLY to
Ravenswood, after running just twelve
months to day from the time she was
bred to the stallion.
Mr.. Henry A. Piper, the owner of a grist
mill on the Wisahicken river, near where
Commodore Kittson contemplates building
bridge to connect the Erdenheim stud

No rain, no logs. The continued alb
sence of rain is becoming a source of great
pneaslness to lumbermen who have a large
part CT their capital resting quietly on the
banks of the various streams in Minnesota
ana Wisconsin, and where it must remain
tor an indefinite period. For without an
increased depth of water in the aforemen-
toned creeks and rivers the drive cannot
proceed.
great many complaints are made to
the police by persons who claim to have
been robbed while drunk. An investiga-
ton generally elicits the fact that the per
sons have IN many cases given their mon
ey or valuabIes TO some friend to keep
until their owners become sober. An in
stance of this kind occurred last Saturday.
A young chap who had just got over

York was applied to, who. mistrusting the

A Cutting ScraDe.

Yesterday afternoon es John Smith, a
quiet, pleasant-speaking man from Mime
apolis, came up the stairs at the junction
of Third and Exchange streets he was met
at the Third street landing by David We'll
don, big colored man who works for
Hoxie & Jaeger. Weldon had his little
fourteen-year old boy with him, and had
been drinking some. He Immediately COM
menced war of words on Smith and made
an attempt to strike him. Just at that
moment the little boy jumped in and gave
Smith cat with knife across the face.
Mr.. Smith is a lumberman and worked all
winter in the woods for Frank Scott, at
Pine river. The cat was an unpleasant
one and in an unpleasant place, but was
not at all serious. The parties who were
engaged in the assault were locked up.

the horse. Mr.. Archibald has raised and
