In 1893 the Wausau land district
contained 100000 acres of vacant Gov
eminent land. as much as the recent
annual report of the Commissioner of
the General Land Office shows that
there are now in the whole state OF
Wisconsin. At the present time the
Wausau district contains only about
10000 acres, showing that the average
disposal of Government land per month
for the past four years has been about
1000 acres Should this continue at
the same rate, in less than three years
every foot of Government land in the
district will be homesteaded or sold,
and it is very probable thatal desira-
BILE land will be gone in a comparative
ly short time and all U. S. Land Off;

The power of endurance, both ply

characteristics Of the late John r. Eel.
lows, District Attorney Of New York.
The sensation Of weariness, even after
he developed the malady which finally
ended his life; was a sensation pfacti-
cally unknown to him; as it is known
to the ordinary man. He could travel
for days and nights, with little or no
sleep, and retain his bodily vIgot with
out the slightest apparent diminution.
Colonel Fellows possessed q memory
that can only be described as pheno-
menal. In the most involved and in
tricate mass of evidence, abounding
in citations from authorities, and filed
with profound legal problems, he took
no notes, but depended entirely upon
his power of absorption to review the
testimony seriatim when the time
came, and this he did with the most
marvellous accuracy. His memory for
quotations and their authors was
equally wonderful. Scott WAS his
favorite, and there was scarcely any
thing in SCOTS poetical works that he
could not recite offhand, and CONT nue.

winter had arrived strictly on time.
The weather along the jersey n
Long Island coasts was the most severe
known for many years. Added to the low
temperature there was n high wind that cut
to the bone. Life savers had TO cut down
their beats along the frozen sands and seek
warmth inside the stations, or themselves
prove victims OF the frost. Ocean liners came
into port coated with ice.
The Thermometer during the day ranged
from 8 degrees above zero at 7 H. m. to IA
degrees above at Up. m, the warmest hour.
At night 1t fell steadily, marking 6 degrees at
midnight, and touching the zero mark be-
fore morning. There was much suffering
