And it came to pass in the latter days
of Janarius, that the hetman Gideon
did summon his councillors, and men
from the igloos to come together at the
place where the walrus fat doth abound,
and to talk about bricks and into the
pavement put.
And the gathering was gOOdly one.
The storm king did howl and to away
below zero went, but these men came
together to look after the veal of the
town-cold or hot. Counsel in the heart
of man is like deep water, but man of
understanding will draw it all out.
And the men of John, of Isaiah, of
Joseph, of Charles, of James, of Samuel,
and many more were there; yea, it is an
honor for man TO cease from strife;
but every fool will be meddling.
And the hetman did tell how sundry
and divers things had caused failure
to make writings with one Young,
whose work will stand until it is old
and how th5 rains had come and made
depthless the roads,-even so that sand
was not found in the crops Of those
roosters who had erstwhile crowed like
unto the cock that had made even Peter
become mugwump and an apostate
Smite scorner and the simple will be,
ware, and reprove one that hath under
standing and he will understand knowl
edge.
And there was much counselling to
gether, and the yeomen did say that the
putting down of the bricks in divers
and sundry places was wise and good
and they so voted yea. Judgments art
prepared for scorners, and stripes fol
the back of fools.
And then with one voice did they de
mand that the bricks be placed on thu
street known as West High avenue
thence to the place where the Iowa Cen
tral snorting engine doth pass, and tn,
councilmen arose and said in one voice
yea, it is good, and so it shall be. Yea
slothfulness casteth into deep sleep
and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
And all the yeoman arose and said i
is good-very good, and that now tha
the shekels were pledged by tribesmen
therefore they rejoiced at the coming o
the sunshine thereat. They did sa,
that the commercial paths shall all b
paved before any more residential quar-
ters shall be taken in. So that the place
where the wheels go round shall b
made easy to reach at all times. An,
so all will say yea, and amen.

ARRANGED FoR.-The paving fund
Of the city is considerably over drawn,

FATAL REsULTs.-The burning Of

Hoo VALUEs.-Hogs sold / Chicago
on Friday at $S.10 gold, the highest value
known for hogs with the hair on since
the war period. AS comparison of
prices we quote from the Register,
which in turn takes leaf from Father
Clarkson's cash book: Jan. 5, 1865,
sold nine hogs at 1880 per 100 lbs.
1880" That was pretty big price
for hogs, but that the Iowa farmer who
sells his pork to-day at 81 per 100 lbs.
is really doing better than his predeces-
sor did in 1865 is evidenced by the fol-
lowing entry in the same book on the
same date Ten pounds of coffee at
soc, $3.50; ten pounds Of sugar at $3.50,
1888; twelve spOols of thread, $1.70;
one gallon kerosene oil, ,Sl.30. Hogs
then were sold dressed. 1t would be
nine mere pigs that would only bring
$3.50. Then, also, the money really
was worth only forty cents on the real
dollar. So that then the values paid
to-day are the greatest known in the
history of the land, and also, more can
be bought in the substantials than
ever before with the same money, and
Of better quality.
