treal are the more popular, as they
are easier of ascent and can be
made so as to avoid ''bumps." Every Wis
itor to Canada and every inhabitant goes
crazy on the subject; and men, women and
children revel in the dashing flight. The
hills are lit by torches stuck in the snow
on each side of the track, and huge bon
fires are kept burning around which gather
picturesque groups. Perhaps of all the
sports of the carnival this is the most gen.
orally enjoyed by visitors. Some of the
slides are very steep and look dangerous,
and the sensation of rushing down the hill
on strip of Eastwood is one never to be
forgotten. had the pleasure once of steer
ing one of the most beautiful citizenesses of
the United States down one Of these slides,
and asked her how she liked it. 'Oh,' she
said. L wouldn't have missed it for hun

"'Not for thousand dollars!'"

can be invented and carried out which is
appropriate for the winter season. Some
of these are new in st. Paul, and it is for
tunate that we have in our midst number
of Canadian-born citizens. whose passion
for snowshoeing, tobogganing and other
forms of sport still clings to them, and who
can lead the way i'll planning for them.
One of them was asked yesterday to
DESCRIBE THE SPORT OF TOBOGGANING.
Said he: IF you go to any of the Mon
treal toboggan slides, you will witness a
sight that thrills the onlooker as well as the
tobogganist. The natural hills were for

and by that time any false impression so
created will be thoroughly dispelled.

Since the project was first mooted, the
outside world seems to be as much enrap-
tured with the idea as ST. Paul herself. and
newspapers all over the country are con-
graduating st. Paul on its enterprise, and
warmly commencing the plan and predict
ing its success. Every days mail brings
to our exchange table newspapers having
some allusion to the matter. Here is a
specimen from recent number of the Mon
treal Herald:
Ottawa, Burlington, VT, and st. Paul.
Mimi, are taking measures to hold carnival.
Ottawa usually has more or less interesting
carnival every year in the parliament build
ings, but if ambitious to initiate Montreal 5
winter fete it doubtless possesses the mater
ial for doing so. A carnival, to be good one,

curling society. The rink would be one of
the best places that could be found for this
sport.
The carnival will be permanent under
taking. If it is success this season, and
there seems to be no doubt it will be, it will
be kept up from year to year.
A Northwestern curling tournament is
talked of and correspondence has already
been received On the subject from clubs in
Wisconsin and other states.
Visits to st. Paul are proposed by men,

of peculiar advantage to the enterprise. I
tell you, as I said before, it's a splendid
board of officers, and with such men behind
it, it is impossible for the carnival to be
anything but success"

A ~erious Accident.

On Monday last, while Mr.. King,
who recently moved to Johnson City
from Va, was talking to Mr. J. L.
Grant, in the sash and blind factory
he put his hand On running circular
saw, which made a dreadful wound
severing some Of the fingers, and ter
ribiy 'lacerating the whole hand. II
seems that Mr. King did not see the
running saw, which was more than
half concealed.
