AN OLD SONG IN A NEW DRESS

AN OLD SONG IN NEW DRESS
Old King Cold
Was lover bold,
And lover bold was he.
He called to the many rivers, "Hold
I've kiss for each of ye."
A kiss of ice
He gave each, twice,
And of kisses two gave he;
And he held them fast by his gay device,
And he laughed right merrily.

A Masonic Excursion.

Jersey City Lodge No. "a F. and A. M,
and Esther Chapter No. 4 0. of E. S., went
on their annual excursion on Thursday last
to Greenwood Lake. The members and
their friends, to the number of 500, com
fortably filed seven cars. After delight
full ride of three hours the Warwick Wood
lands excursion grounds were reached. The
trip on the train was enjoyed, but the sail
on the magnificent steamer Montclair, on
the lake, was more fully enjoyed. The sail
was about four miles, The boat made sew
eral trips of nine miles each, conveying
large parties on each trip. Among those
who accompanied the excursion were Mr..
I. G. Brown, Chief Engineer Farrier and
his four brothers, Mr.. w. G. Hatton. and
many others, who were accompanied by
their families and lady friends, and were
loud in their praise of this excursion. The
committee deserve credit for their efforts.

An Awful Plunge.

Mr.. and Mrs. William Cramer reside in
Hackensack. On Friday evening they
visited some friends in Hoboken having
driven there in buggy. The Paterson
Plank Road, over which the couple drove,
is very steep in one place, running along
the edge of precipice twenty-five feet
high. Mrs. Cramer was somewhat tlnid
about taking the road last night,
but as they had travelled over
it before, her husband thought they would
run no risk. just as they had reached
the stretch along the precipice the horse
became unmanageable. Cramer applied
the whip, and the horse gave one tremen-
dous jump, landing the couple on the
Erie railroad tracks, twenty five feet
below. Cramer was uninjured, but his
wife received internal injuries from which
she will probably die. The horse broke
his leg and was shot

! A Terrible Disappointment.

Three couples entered popular German
restaurant near the elevator yesterday af-
ternoon and seated themselves at a round
table. The young men were dudish look
ing. One of them, named Egan, asked a
waiter whether any ice cream could be OBJ
tanned, and on receiving an affirmative
answer, ordered large plate to be filed,
and small plates and spoons to accompany
it, at the same time handing the waiter q
note. In five minutes the waiter re-
turned with a huge plate heaping over
with beautiful, white mound and
placed it on the centre of the table, and
then ranged the smaller plates around
The spokesman for the party then ladled
out the delicious looking compound, and
the ladies promptly dived for great spoon
fuls With the first mouthful there were
three separate shrieks, and then three
young ladies were seen flying for an ante
room. An investigation revealed the fact
that the waiter had brought dish of pot
cheese, or as the Germans express it,
"Schmierkaase." It looked like ice-creanl,
but whether the note brought it, or the
waiter made a mistake, the gentlemen will
never have chance of explaining to the
girls
