1.-THE cold weather since Christmas will

Star reporter today. 1T may be that they
will be slightly cheaper, because of the
leftover stock from Christmas. Turkeys
are not SO much in demand for New Year

they are in greater demand for Thanks

along. After lunch at Camden
on nuley Friday noon, his ex-
uberent spirits asserted them
selves. and, together with several
other gentlemen of the press,
White managed to get hold of an
old bass drum, others handling
the tenor drum and cymbals. and
the jolly, ruddy-faced Kitson
blowing the cornet. Then to the
tune of martial music this cor
poral's guard of amateur musici
ans marched round the spacious
piazza, greatly to the amusement
aud edifcation of the assembled
picnicers.
A small crowd soon gathered
on the grassy. sloping hillside
in front of the building, and be-
gan to indulge IN a jumping
match, which was participated in
by Elliott, Holt, White and other
notables. This match revealed
the fact that although these grave
gentlemen were somewhat stiff
jointed, they had by no means
forgotten their ardent love for
noble athletic sports.

muzzle. The revolver went of,
the bullet entering his right eye
and bursting through the head.
