The leap year ball
Was a grand success,
Which made it quite treasure
To store in memory and recall with pleasure.
The gentlemen were deliciously shy,
Asto play the lady they did try;
And really asking them to dance,
Seemed such a splendid chance,
For you might ask just whom you would,
Because you thought them best was understood
wonder il many a little compliment
They did not store In their heart,
When from the party they did depart;
imagined they wished leap year would come
again,
But we don'tfor it's hard for ladies to play men.
1t is always so nice to meet new faces,
That come to us from other places;
Thus strangers were welcomed to our ball,
Who came to our quaint little city for call
The pretty floor managers" did so well,
I'm afraid gentlemen tried to sell;
For they displayed tact
A gentleman would lack,
In making everyone have good time.
Till another leap year will end my rhyme.

The Leap Year Dance.

On Monday evening the commodi-
Gus dining room of the Morris Hotel
was filed with happy young people,
nearly fifty couples having responded
to the invitations sent out by a num-
Der of our enterprising young ladies.
At 9 o'clock dancing began to the
beautiful strains of Prof. Watzkes
excellent orchestra and continued
until about 3 in the morning. De-
licious refresh. Aents were served at
11:30 under Il direction of mine
host" Dusheck, and corps of able
assistants. The young ladies acted
as floor managers and proved them
selves thoroughly efficient as such.
On the whole it was one Of the most
enjoyable dancing parties held in
Morris for many moons, and from
this time forward the young men
will be longing for leap year to come
again.

Reports from the country give an
account of a new swindling scheme.
This time it is wheat the slick swindler
wants. His plans are as follows:
He makes a contract with each farmer
for his wheat, agreeing to pay S1.O5
a bushel at the nearest station when
ever he desires it. In order to bind
the contract he pays little down and
agrees to pay the remainder when the
wheat is delivered. He OILY
approaches those who have large
amounts. After he gets the contracts
he will hold them never calling for
the wheat, and worry the farmer into
giving him nice sum to release the
contract. He is a smooth one and it
would be we'll for our farmer friends
to keep on the lookout for him.-Ex.

On returning from Minneapolis
after Christmas, we found Xmas
presents awaiting us which would
place us under obligations almost
sufficient to sink a ship, but for the
editorial doctrine, that it is more
blessed to receive than to give; this
enables us to bear up quite cheerfully
under the load, and something's we
shall never be short of again. Among
the multiplicity of gifts, we are the
recipient of twenty krchfs., some silk
and some fine linen; but as the articles
are too numerous to mention, and as
they were almost all of a private
nature we forego saying anything
about them, except one beautiful re-
memberance from the ladies of the

highly esteem. They will please to
accept our thanks, and best wishes
for abundant success in the noble
work in which they are engaged.
