by the ladies of the Rebehah lodge, l. o.

A heated discussion considering that
the thermometer registered 10 below
zero was conducted in one of the bust
ness houses of this place during the late
cold spell, on the muchly discussed sub
iectt of the moons influence on animal
and vegetable life. One of the dispu-
tants possessed head bereft of hair. It
was argued by his opponent that il he laid
boards on his head in the light of the
moon, the hair would come in again.

and its outcome will be watched with in

as he has been able to ascertain, the fruit
has weathered the cold weather in good
shape. The cane, fruit and Strawberries
are in good condition. So also cherries.
The plums may be hurt some. Mr.. Carr
, says the greatest damage generally done
to fruit in the winter time is by the warm
winds which dry the sap up. These
| winds have not been so frequent this
season as usual and hence he feels all the
fruit plants and trees are in splendid
shape.

There are vague rumors that batching

on the fact that they have become tired

large snow bank. The water from the
melting snow freezes at night, and forms
anchor ice, which makes it difficult
matter to keep the tramway track clear
for trains over the road.

The game was really pitchers battle,
both silent Harvey and Fireman

former struck out four men, While three
of the Sacramentos failed to connect with

an errorless game, with but two misplays

a circuit of the bags on wild throws Of
Stanley and Shanahan. The former en-

made connections Doyle scampered in
