WILL THERE BE A FLOOD

The ice in the river is yet very
solid and no signs of disintegration
excepting along the shores, where the
river has raised and left space of
open water in place. Here it is the
2Sth of March and very little of the
snow and ice has left us. 1t looks
rather dubious. We have every rea-
son to look for rain (of which we had
a taste last Saturday. and warm
weather, and if it should happen to
come and stay with us for few days
freshet of some proportions will
be the result. Let us hope that this
will not be the case, but that the ice
and snow will go off gradually.

SHORT ITEMS

1t seems that the same darkness,
from dense clouds on Saturday oc-
Cured pretty much all over the state.
At Stevens Point, the Journal says:
"a remarkable period of darkness, due
to heavy clouds was recorded about
7:45 o'clock, a. m" The same con-
ditions existed here at about o'clock
and was as dark as night.
Some have been exercised over the
thought that there would be no dyes
for coloring eggs the coming Easter.
Those who know, say that there will
be no shortage this year.
Robert, son of Mrs. ]. W. Coates

Went With the Load.

An Irishman, having arrived in New
York a few days ago, got employment
with lumber merchant. Later he was
ordered to take load of lumber some
distance away. Having gone half his
journey, he came to a steep hill, and
while the horses were struggling to
get to the top his boss happened to
meet him, and seeing the horses in
such a difficulty, and Pat standing on
top Of the load, he stopped him and
exclaimed:
do you think the horses haven't got
enough to do without hauling you up
this hill?"
Pat, fixing himself more comfortab-
~ on top Of the load, said:
us that what you stopped me for?'
Then, with a crack Of his whip, Pat
concluded:
Gee up, it's a poor ship that can't
carry the captain"

An amusing incident is told which
took place in one of the occupied dis
tricts of Belgium where the German
Occupier doles out potatoes to such of
the starving people as agree to work
for him. One recipient presented him

declared himself quite ready in return
for supply of potatoes to work for
the Germans and only for them. He
seemed quite decided and genuine in
his offer of work.

Changed Affections Cause
Young Men To Fight.

A young lady. unable to give her
attentions to two gentlemen admirers
at the same time. was the basis for a
rough and tumble encounter one day
last week. The details have lust
leaked out. 1t appears that young
man from Lehi was paying attentions
70 the girl when former sweetheart
came up and demanded that she quit
the Lehi man. When she refused, the
local youth used physical persuasion.
Soon both men were rolling in the
ditch. and II appears that the dis
carded lover was underneath with his
face being severity punched. Then
followed race down Main Street,
with the Lehi man in the lead and his
pursuer following with blood stream.
ng down his face on to his white
shirt. The defeated man and his pal
waited In vain at the depot for the
Lehi man to board an interurban car
but he. suspecting their intentions,
went home In a livery rig.
The other side OF the story is that
the Lehi man used a hammer on his
opponent.
