STREET SAYINGS.

The north wind plped adOwn the vale
And whistled Ger the lea,
Dancing mid the leafless boughs
With wild and careless glee.
With it's trailing skirts the north wind swept
And whirei the silent snow,
From the grim and cherries mountain tops
To the sombre dells below.
And it laughed and it chartered over the
plains,
An icy gruesome laugh;
''I'm as happy to-day as they it sang,
who the tears of the wine-press quaff.'
'Im happy to-day" sang the wild north
wind;
'For as 1 wandered Ger the lea
met maid with golden hair
And face that was fair to see.'
Sand 7 kissed her," laughed the wild north
wind,
II kissed that maiden fair;
She turned to me her rosy cheek,
And left an imprint there

''The number of people waltzing around
this city and violating the law and never
being punished is wonderful" remarked a
policeman yesterday. 81 don't believe
there are twenty men in hundred who
don't carry a revolver in their pocket and
yet there is a law against carrying con-
cealed weapons. If this law was enforced
there would be fewer shooting affrays, for
when man gets mad he don't stop to think
but naturally reaches for his gun and before
he knowns it almost he has shot somebody
or tried to. I suppose it is a pretty hard
matter to regulate, but believe if a law
was passed prohibiting the sale of revolvers
to persons who couldn't show permit to
carry them from the proper officials it
would do a great deal of good. A good
many of the buns who are taken to the
police station and who have hardly clothes
rusty revolver slowed away in their pock-
ets." .-..-.

''Women are very peculiar in their
IDEAS" said Third street furrer. ''Ths
year they are buying sealskin cloaks, and
are very particular that they are specked
with gray hairs. Heretofore these skins
have brought less money than the perfectly
colored skin, but this year they are in
greater demand at higher prices, and it is
all on account of the great number of plush
cloaks that are being worn. Now fine
plush cloak, trimmed with otter or beaver.
at short distance looks just like sealskin.
and in order to prove to the people that
they are wearing sealskin and not plush the
ladies demand those skins with the white
hairs, as 1 have told you. This enables
them to walk by plush-cloaked woman
on the street and give her a disdainful and
provoking smile. Truly, woman's pecu-
liarities are legion"

''St Paul can boast of her pretty
said visitor at the French fair
evening, land right here are some
OF the most charming types. l have never
been in an assembly so marked for the
beauty of face and grace of form of its
ladies as at this fair. There isn't girl or
a woman here who hasn't an attractive
point about her. Even if her face is rather
ugly, you are almost fascinated the moment
she moves, by the gracefulness she dis
plays. But, ahem; can't say as much for
the men,"

The GLOBE this morning publishes an
abstract of Rev. Clay MacCauley's sermon
on The Real He'll. Readers will look in
vain, however. for any allusion to the prob
able locality which Riel will occupy after
to-day.

Not much pity will be felt for the poor
fellow whose i'll luck in allowing conf
1ence man to ''do" him out of $50 by stale
rick yesterday is chronicled this morning.
The knowledge he has obtained by his eX-
Derience will be worth as much as that to
him. He could have obtained it much
cheaper, however. by subscribing for the
GLOBE some time ago. We print stories
ike that about three times week.
