Snow BALLNG. G.-The boys have been
snowballing every body almost, regardless,
ofage or nationality using little discretion
in the matter, among others having an
extra dose for the Cinnamon. Last night
q Mongolian went along the street with
his hand on a revolver with the avowed
purpose Of shooting il not let alone. He
was not disturbed. Snow baliing is all
right, in the right place when the fight
is even, and the contest fair; but it is
cowardly to hit any one in the back, or
older men, and Cinnamon. anywhere.
Several boys this forenoon attacked a
Cinnamon belonging to the Ferry Street
house, and it is claimed broke one OF
his ribs. An attack On Prof Torbeti, OF
the College resulted in the Professors e
glasses being broken. Complaint was
made for warrants in each case; but it 10
always difficult to place the offenders,
and no arrests had been made at press
time.

California, where he gave up a contract
10 do so, and will go to work shortly on
the extension of the Oregon Pacific which
is TO connect with the G & O. He says
IL Is business this time and no mere fool
ishness. This Is told for fact and II not
funny item. In the mean time the road
will not be sold until the Ist of March.
II Is probable that then there ill be but
one bidder, and 1t is possible that now the
m after is all fixed up and contractors are
being negotiated with; but not probable.
