MEALS TAKEN IN DRINKS.
People Who ntrOn the Soda FOun
tains Want Either Something Sub
stantial or Something Novel.

Everyone interested in the matter OF
sane living must wonder at the things
the average person drinks. It's a ques-
ton whether people seek to saw time
by drinking foods or are merely crafty
ing their taste. Half an hour passed al
any well-patronized soda fountain, says
the Philadelphia Record, will show the
great majority to be indulging in egg
mixtures, or others in which fruits, ice
cream or other food is placed.
A cup of rich chocolate is a small
meal. It's a wonder people live at all,
considering the insanity displayed in
eating and drinking. AS for the cray
ing for novelty, the average person will
eat or drink anything he has never
seen, tasted or heard of before. Elk
pert and lightning mixers of drinks
count that cay lost whose low descend
ing sun sees no new drink achieved,
They add the name to their list. and
every other person jumps at the chance
to taste this new mystery. The good
part of it is that SO many live

The surveying of the P. r. r. COM

the dredgers. The company have
thought of bringing a dredging ma
CLINE and four dumping scnws of their
own around from Philadelphia, but
they may contract with parties IN New
York or jersey City instead. The
improvements have begun, but it will
probably be a year, or nearly SO, be.
fore all is finished. They cannot be
complete without the machinery told
of in the News some time ago and
upon which story so much has been
built by Others, that it has reached al
ahsurd amount. The sum of So, 600,
COO will far exceed the amount to be
expended on improvements by the
Pennsylvania Railroan Company, and
when stretched to $15, 600, 900 is ridic-
ulous in the extreme. The cost OF
dredging, new machinery and ever
new docks. will amount to probably
less than 81, 900, 600.

After being broken the bronco's
real education begins, writes Minnie ]
Reynolds, in the Four-Track News
He must learn to wheel or to stop in.
stantly, while rushing al full speed, By
the gentle pressure of a finger on his

and stand stiff when a COW is roped that
she may not pull him. He must learn
to skillfully avoid an enraged Cow
brute rushing full at him, intent upon
impaling him upon her horns. Many a
man who can break a horse has not the
sense to educate him afterwards; and
some %broncos, left too long upon the
range, until their wicked ways are
fixed by age, can never be broken.
Bronco busting" is a fascinating occu-
patton, and the best mar at the trade in
a COW country is something such a hero
as the king of the ring in bull-fghtine

SOUTH
STORES CLOSED
Some Of the Merchants Locked
up al 8 O'clock Clerks
ON Lookout.

When s O'Clock came last night it
found some of the stores closed mp as
tight as a drum, while others, with
a small crowd of would-be purchasers
in their stores, were trying to close.
Max Kaufman, who inaugurated the
early closing movement, was away, as
before stated, for his health, but his
clerks we're out on time and constitut
ed themselves detectives for the occa-
sion aud not only made all excuse to
enter u store to see if they were clos
ing, but stood in n row on the street
watching another store, the proprietor
of which had signed the petition, ex
claiming loudly, 1--WE will watch
every night. We will do this every
night. Honest-etc.
The thought entered my mind that
if the clerks were going to spend the
time in that way they were not bene-
fitting much by the sacrifice Of their
employers, some IF whom very reluct-
antly signed for early closing, because
they knew they were losing dollars by
SO doing. One merchant said by the
time the men get home and get their
supper it is nearly y O'Clock. A mum.
Der think that a few days will settle
the matter and have no idea that the
early closing will be of long duration.

ST. VALENTINES DAY.
Was Generally Celebrated by Both Young
and Old.

Yesterday being the 18th of Febru-
airy Sc. Valentine came in for his
share of attention as the 18th being
Sunday, there was no chance of cele-
brating. AT the post Office the chill
dren kept the pot boiling. Every two
minutes the postmaster said they were
on hand. The mails were, of course,
heavier than usual and valentines
came from far and near and were sent
out too, in all directions, giving pleas
ure to many people, for v e though
horrid caricatures were received, il
would cause a laugh.
This week still belongs to the Saint
and the work of sending and receiving
will still be kept up more or less, but
it will be hard to find many in the
local stores as they we're very nearly
sold out Monday night. It is a pretty
custom and many years old and when
carried out in the right spirit, it is
all right, but there are some who in
vest in the horrible caricatures in q
game making or malicious spirit with
q view to annoying those whom they
do not like. Where the satisfaction
comes in though, it is hard to tell, for
it generally falls fat, as the receipt of
such valentines is seldom told or com
mented on. AS early as Saturday
night little children were seen run
ming away from doors, after placing a
comic valentine. addressed by an older
person, by someone's door, and rap
ping on it. So the idea is instilled
in the minds of sweet little children
who ought to be taught to respect the
feelings of others, so they will grow
up to be charming and pleasing young
women and men.
