fearful that sudden tllaw' might at
any moment break up the ice and ruin
their pastime.
There were no particularly funny
scenes on the ice yesterday. One chap
who was skating without his overcoat
slipped and slid in sitting posture Tor
some twenty feet. 5c4 1og F.,
"Hey, mister, You're losing your
pocket handkerchief" called out q
youngster to the slider, as soon as he
picked himself up. The victim OF tho
fall turned his face toward tho people
on the bridge, backed over to where his
ovcrcoat lay; and silently put it on; he
then sat down, removed his skates and
walked away. In about half I'm hour
he returned, this time with another pair
OF trousers, and skated merrily away.

Skates are somewhat scarce this sea-

BUTCHERS ASSOCIATIONS BALL

Good Time.
The butchers ball, given last night at
the Arion hall, was very pleasant
affair. Much credit is due for the ex-
cellence OF tho arrangements to tho
committee in charge, consisting OF
NIessrs. John Dunkel, chairman; Gus.
tave Medick, Andrew Korn, Charles
Rohrig, Otto Schcnll and William
Mayer. George Weimcr acted, rs floor
monager and was assisted by Otto
Schenk. The hall was tasteiully deco.
rated with evergrcens.
Every one enjoyed the dancing, the
old vying with the young in the general
merrimcnt. Messrs. William Bsyha and
William Rohrig who danced a "stag"
polance, were much admired by all the
spectators for the grace and. ease with
which they danced. At twelve o'clocl,
a,splendcd supper was served by Caterer
kraus, the association having given
this experienced suppor-giver carte
blanche.
p One well-known county official noted
for his generous treatment to all the
boys created much laughter by asking
all present to nave pleasant smile
with him, and insisted on having sew.
eral moro with him ut his expense, un-
til he thought he had about struck his
limit. Looking around with dubious
countenance, he began to countup the
damage, and, wondering if hc could
settle, pulled out all he had and offered
it to the man in charge, when he was
met with the answer: Everything is
free" amid roars OF laughter. He felt
so crushed that he went out and hired
q policeman to club him. Jokes and
pleasantrics were the main features OF
the whole evening, and everyone went
home feeling tired, but happy, over one
OF the most enjoyable balls OF the sea-
son..

Only to weep for her tears

How soon the link was broken
Which helped us to drown our care,
And left not even a token
OF the treasured. golden chain
That bound us two hand and heart,
Leaving behind SO much pain
That must bear as my part.
Your letters love to recall
I'll miss from my life forever.

Our fond, loving hearts to sever!
Waiting and watching: But no
Message will ever come, dear one.
