OVER THE SNOW.

Sweet Milicent put on her furs,
Nor cares how hard the north wind blows
so many hearts would capture hers,
She has no lack of anxious beaux.
Now jingle, jingle go the bells,
Past burdened fields, past wood and
shore
With joyous hope her bosom swells,
And all the world is fair before.
One summer day she chanced to meet
Her escort, near the oceans tide
But now he comes with coursers fleet
And asks her to winters ride.
Jingle, jingle go the bells,
AS off the happy couple starts
But only Cupid's record tells
Theunion there Of hands and hearts.
30, let the north winds roughly blow,
Nothing shall cool their deep desire
For love can melt the cold and snow,
And needs no outward flame or fire!
Jingle, jingle go the bells,
Until the merry trip is done;
The frosty road no secret tells
Oftwo fond hearts that beat as one.
Joel Benton.

The vaunted protection of the seals
in Alaskan water is myth, in the
opinion of the New York Mail and Ex-
press. Secretary Carlisle reports that
121, ,143 were killed by pelagic sealers
last year. This statement has caused
a suggestion to be made in Congress
that the Government undertake the
slaughter of the remaining seals, esti-
mated to number $50, 900, aud sell the
skins, which would be valued at S10,-
600, 900 ii properly cured. 1t is
strange that the two greatest Govern
ments In the world cannot protect the
seals. Possibly there is some reason
not apparent on the surface why this
is so

Scotch banks will at an early date
reduce the interest on deposits to one
per cent, the lowest ever paid. The
managers state that they are COM
PEELED to take this course because the
English banks are only paying one

they never experienced such difficulty

The sensation attendant upon the frs
report of the elopement of Miss Maggie
Smith and DR.. John V. Gaff, of Alhina,
has subsided, particularly as the affair
turns out not to have carried with il so
great 4 degree OF enormity as was sup
posed at the first blush. Miss Smith s

doctors's treatment of her while they
and simply CT pla:onic nature, has had
the tendency to ease the minds of his
friends, and divest him of the odium or
iginally attached to his conduct, which,
however, TO say the least, was very ILL
advised.
The further fact, which is pleasant
for the girls sake. is that when
ever the eloping couple halted while on
their flight from this city they invariably
passed as brother and sister, and occup-
iei separate apartments. This certainly
goes a great way to establish the purity
of Miss Smiths character, and also exon
crate the doctor from such charges rs
adultery or seduction.
Some prominent lawyers today ex-
pressed the conviction that DIR. Gaff can
| not be held on the charge OF kidnapping
under the provisions the statutes. He
did not forcibly seize or inveigle Miss
Smith; no. did he confine or imprison
her against her will nor did he forcibly
and secretly take her out OF the state,
which offenses constitute the crime oi
kidnapping.
| A gentleman who claims to be familiar
with the case, said today that If it were
necessary DIR. G aff might be able to prove
| that it was not he that was infatuated
with the girl, but that he merely acted
in the interest of another, with whom
Miss Smith was in love.-Telegram.
