Famous Women.

1t is a significant fact that most of the
women who have achieved fame In art, litera-

health. This shows that the mind is never
capable of the severe and continued applica-

body is at its best The woman who aspires
to All an exalted place among her associates,
must be free from nervous debility and fe-

gong toHl-tom. near Dy was uncIr camp,
the thin blue smoke curling heavenward
from the tops of their tepees. Champion
skaters were gliding with amazing skill
over the CLASSY surface of the inclosed lake.
A great crowd blocked the way to the to-
boggan slide, which begins at the top OK q
high hill and crosses trestled valley for q
distance of almost mile.
The blanket uniforms Of the different to-
boggan clubs are gaudy and jaunty and are
worn by both ladies and gentlemen. To-
bogganing, at best, is a ferocious sport. The
human freight goes whizzing down the long
chute with the velocity almost of cannon
ball. Woe betide the unfortunate who
meets with an accident ON this inclined
plane of pleasure. Thus far this year there
has been no serious accidents 1t is true a
few people have had an ear scraped OF or a
finger or two ground to powder, but little
things of that kind don't count Last year
most deplorable accident occurred to mar
the festivities. A young man and his wife
started down the slide on a toboggan. The
end of loose board few up in front of the
toboggan. A great silver struck the man
and ran clear through his body, killing him
instantly. 1t took the united force of two
or three to pull il out. The dreadful sight

is now in a mad-house-
1t is probably unnecessary to say that
everybody in the twin cities, st. Paul and
Minneapolis, takes part in the carnival
The Governor and other State officers, all
OF the county and city fathers, court digni-
tarles and pompous old merchants, lay
aside the dull cares of State and business,
and frisk around as gay as the gayest.
During part of the days of the big demon
strations business was practically suspend
ed, and everybody turned out to enjoy the
sport. The snow shoe clubs carry what are
known to the initiated as "bouncing-
blankets" The " blanket'' is regarded by
all as a relic of barbarism but it is toler-
ated nevertheless for the rare sport it af-
fords to every one except the unwary vic
tim. A dozen brawny fellows will take
hold of the ends and sides of the blanket
and stretch it to its utmost tension. Then
accomplices will grab some unsuspecting
party and bodily land him on top of the out
stretched blanket, and the fun begins. The
victim is tossed and tossed sometimes eight
or ten feet in the air, until he is finally land
ed out in some friendless snow bank more
dead than alive.
The snow-shoe races, the curling con-
tests, the skating and the various other so
called official sports attracted many experts,
and the long list of beautiful prizes and
medals hung up by the Carnival Associa-
ton were hotly contested for, and were
awarded after exhibitions of wonderful pro-
ficiency on the part of the different contest

posing force. The King, with his trusty
adherents, took possession of the trans
parent, but seemingly impregnable, for
tress. The outside force, numbering several
thousand, armed to the teeth with sky-rock-
cts, roman candles and red fire, boldly as
saulted, in the early night, the King and his
followers. The storming was furious-the
scene sublime. For several hours the
heavens were brilliant with the charges of
the pasteboard artillery. Long lines of
scarlet, blue, purple and yellow flame dash
against the icy walls. Again and again the
forces rushed to the very doors of the pal
ace only to be repulsed, with great loss of
powder and few toboggan suits. The
sight was one never to be forgotten-the
picturesquely-garbe army rushing madly
against the walls of the icy fortress, the
furious pyrotechnic display from without
and within, the glittering outlines of the
white structure 'gainst the blue back
ground of the heavens, and the wild and
deafening huzzahs of the thousands who
were thrilled by the mock charges and re-
treats.
On the night of the second charge the
scene was re-enacted on a grander scale, and
the outsiders finally captured the palace,
melted the Ice King and dispersed his frost
bitten forces.
The ice carnival is indeed destined to be
q mighty institution. 1t is to the North
what the Mardi gras is 10 the South. 1t Is

grows the = Legend of Hiawatha' has been
riddled to find names for the different
clubs, and the wooden mills have been
driven to desperation trying to supply the
demand for blankets for uniforms. There
is no kind of an open air game that is not
encouraged by the carnival. Every thing
goes. The great pile of ice will stand until
the spring thaws come. Then it will tune
