right back to me. If you want my business
you must wake up and dust and get the top
price. I've come to stay and propose to do
large business. Nothing less than Is
cents will do' This bird has not at any
time this season commanded 1S cents, and,
owing to the large stock Shipped here within
the last week or TIVE, has dwindled down to
5 or cents, so that the owner OF these
turkeys may be thankful if he gets one-third
the price he demanded. 1t will be interest
ing, though, to learn what he thinks Of the
sale of his turkeys. It is thought. though,
that he will say something entertaining In
his own peculiar and forcible style.

Central park is not the proper place fol-
the ice palace" remarked citizen yester-
day.
''Why not9"
SIT Is not a convenient location. It's too
far up town; 1t ought to be nearer the bust
ness portion" 1880
':Where would you have it?"
81 don't think better location for it
could be found than Smith park, between
Sibley, Waeouta and Fourth and Fifth
streets. That in my estimation is the moss
convenient place where it could be built.
The Seventh and Fourth street cars run
within two blocks of it. and it is near the
union depot. The material for its construe-
ton can be easily and cheaply brought
there; it could be Illuminated without much
cost of stretching electric light wires, and
it is in the midst almost of the wholesale
district and would bring visitors to that
neighborhood and give them some idea OF
st. Paul as wholesale point. The ground
there is prominent and the palace would
show Off at splendid advantage. L had
much rather see it built in West ST. Paul
than in Central park, but Smith park is the
best of ALL"
1t was intimated by citizen yesterday
that Walter B. Smith was not very far from
the city. Il believe" said he. that he is
within twenty-five miles of St. Paul. Ii he
had intended to go very far he would have
left Saturday night and got two days
start instead of the fifteen hours that he
did get"

When Mayor Pillsbury of Minneapolis

him: Ibid you bring that whitewash brush
along with you, Mr.. Pillsbury?''
''No, 1 left that" said the mayor with
smile, [ couldn't use it III this city, you
know"
Mr.. G. A. Pillsbury had heard the re-
marks and he said in his Quick way:
'.TEere isn't so much whltewash going
to be used in Minneapolis as some people
seem to think there is, all the same"

For the first time this season the ground
in st. Paul was white with SNOW. 1t was
not very white and in most places the flakes
had melted by night. Nobody seemed
inclined to make much objection to the

thankfulnesS that there was no more and
that it had come no sooner. The Snow
shoe club regards it as a favorable omen.
