TuERE was an extra edition to our
severe winter the past week All
day Saturday we eljoyed(?) a Wild
west wind accompanied by snow.
This was continued throughout Sun
day, excepting less snow, and the
thermometer reached down 10 10 or
l2 degrees below zero I, is hoped
that is the last severe snap.
By vote Of the Faculty Of the
State University on Monday Of this
week the Mineral Point High
School was placed on the accredited
list Of High Schools whose gradu.
ates will be admitted to the Uuiyer-
sity without examination. This Is
for the general science course.
There is a tacit understanding to
the effect that at some time in the
future our school will be on the ac-
credited list for the modern classical
course.

THE dwelling house Of Mr.. John
Evans met narrow escape from des-
truction by fire yesterday forenoon.
The fire originated by some means
from the fue, and before il could be
controlled had burned a hole through
the roof. The loss sustained by dam
to building and furniture is consid
erable.
A Card.-Mr. Evans and family
wish in this way to extend thanks 10
the many friends who SO readily as
sisted in extinguishing the fire, etc.
The heavy snowstorms of this
winter will beyond doubt prove a
great blessing TO Wisconsin, The
two years of dry weather had about
exhausted the moisture of the earth,
and, as there was no frost In the
ground, the snow water az it melted
has settled into the earth and is
already filling up the wells and
springs. Another year of drouth
would have been terrible calamity,
and even an open winter, or sea
son with little snow would have left
the ground dry and afforded little
hope for the crops Of 1883. Al it
is, the streams and springs and this
entire region will be full OF water,
and every thing in readiness for a
pro.perou. year for the farm and
garden.
