DAKOTA NEWS.
"a Dakota BLIZZARD"

An Eastern editor sat in his lair
With grinv look and disheveled mar,
Weaving Munchausen tales of dispalf
With tiendish gee.
He armed his pen with drop of gall,
And coniured the imps both great and small
To move his wits in a free-for-all
Sort of Rhenish spree.
He wrote of hundred degrees below,
OF fifty foot drifts of hlinding snow,
OF legions of victims Death laid low
On the driven plain.
The babe frozen stiff in it's mothers arms,
The gay school lass with her winsome charms
Old Boreas claimed for lis ice-locked arms
Among the slain.
The editor halted and bit his pen.
Looked up-the Devil was with him then
And smiled with n smile not born of men,
And courtesied low.
"Ah there" snid the scribe, are You here too"
I'm in search Of Il name for awordy STOW
That's tissue of lies-can't you give NE cue
It's o lake you know"
The Devil smiled the smile of q wizard;
He scratched his head from A to lizard;
Then said Yes. call it-A Dakota Blizzard
and the lie went FORTH
