AT THE ICE CARNIVAL
A FEW NOTE* DROPPED BY A VISI
TOR ON TDK ROUTE.
Will the Repartee Mew and Hew It Stracli
Him—Fee In the lee and Hn.w.
The way to Montreal from New York
or Boston is an unbroken path of snow
and ioe, yet when the visitor reaches the
Canadian metropolis it seems to him as
though if all the snow he had passed
had been gathered np and flung into the
streets there wonld not l>e more there
than there is. Where it has not been
shoveled off the sidewalks it reaches to
the bottoms of the old-fashioned pro
jecting stone windows. It may not bo
nntil next April that the ourt>s and flag
ging will be visible. Whote it has been
shoveled to one side it rises higher than
one’s head.
There was a murderer on the train
bonnd for Flattsbnrg jail He was ex
pected, and the whole village turned
ont to see him. Pioking out a Brooklyn
contractor, who had to be steadied by a
friend, the crowd followed him until he
esoaped into a barroom.
One hundred and twenty men and wo
men sat down at the first tables at
Plattsbnrg, and were served with beef
steak that a Newark doctor said mode
him understand for tho first time why
meals are technically spoken of as
board.
The Canadian Custom House offloer at
House’s Point fonnd that every man and
woman had the biggest-sised valises antj
yet oarried nothing bnt a single change
of linen. He snid the United Btates in
spector would have a busy time looking
the bags over when they came book
again full. But the man to be pitied was
the inspector on the Central Vermont,
who would catch the Boston folks re
turning home. It seems that a special
bag, double the largest regular size, is
made in Boston on purpose for journeys
to Canada.
When tho stream of passengers is
sued from the depot in Montreal the
temperature was an inch below sero.
There seemed to be about one fur-clad
sleigh driver to each visitor. Strange-
looking policemen, in blue coats and sn-
gar-loaf fur caps, kept the drivers from
tearing the strangers to pieces. They
were not like New York policemen.
Their clubs were kept in their belts, and
they spoke in low and respectful tones.
John Keith, of New York, who had
been hustled along like a pillow in a
boarding-school bedroom booause he did
not stand in line in the Grand Central
Depot, asked one of these fur-capped
peelers how he oould get to a certain
street "Take the sleigh I show you
to,” said the policeman, "and don’t let
the driver swindle yon. Give him half
a dollar." Keith was amazed, and went
about all day shouting the praises of the
polioe until a Montreal man told him he
was imposed upon, and that the law only
allowed the driver to ohargo a quarter.
The day provod abominable. It either
rained, hailed, or snowed steadily nntil
night. The New York girls stayed in
doors, and pounded "We Never Speak
as We Pass By,” "Gobble, Gobble," and
"I Can't Swim, bnt You Ought to See
Jim,” out of the private pianos. The
Canadian girls oare no more for weather
than as if they were ducks. They have
no feathers to spoil, and they don’t wear
good clothes out of doors. They were
mot with everywhere dragging tobog
gans, swinging skates on their arms,
Bcndding along in sleighs, cheering the
brawny Soots at the curling match, stalk
ing up the mountain side like so many
Swiss, filling the air with their laughter,
decking every scene with the gay oolors
of their wraps and mufflers, and blush
ing rose red with excessive vitality. The
young men were not behindhand.
There was a hookey game, snow-shoe
racing, and the grand annual drive of
the contractors. These contractors are
the masons, builders, plumbers, carpen
ters and what not They out each
other's throats in business 364 days in
the year, and on one day they all drive
out to some country hotel to bury buB
inoss under beefsteak and drown hard
feelings in hot Scotch. They made a
big show in their sleighs, but sleighs arc
so common here they don’t count. Any
New York office boy who happened to
be here could olimb into one, havo
mm.n heap blankets and furs on him
see his driver climb up four feet above
him with a fur coat, and fur hat on, with
a fur robe on his lap, a bear skin hnug
ing from his seat, and four feet of buf
falo fur flying from the tail of the sleigh
and ride anywhere in the city for the
price of a seat in a Bowery theatre,
The ice palace is bigger end ten times
more beautiful than the one of last year.
In the day time it looked like a castle
whose battlements, turrets, arches, and
piers were hewn from a crystal. Ice so
perfectly clear is seldom seen in New
York. It is like plate glass, now that
the glare of a dozen carbon points shine
through its side. It is like a palace in
a dream of fairyland. It is as big as the
new Barge Office, off the Battery, and
its translucent walls have a creamy tone
like alabaster.
A notable event at the Montreal carni
val was an attack of the snowshoers oo
the Ioe Palace. It had been surrounded
with mimio cannon from the battlements
daring the day. At a given signal the
snowshoers surrounded the palace after
the f—bion of the aseault upon Jerioho,
pAar-hinp more than seven times, how
ever. At the proper moment the skir
mish line advanced and threw blue
like mortar battery bombs, into
the palace. The fort replied with strag
gling shots. Then the snowshoers
opened a hot fire and the battlements
soon began to reply, when the palace
blazed with repelling bine lights, and
oooasionally salvos of rookets shot from
the Long parlor, giving an idea of ex
ploding powder magazines.
In the meantime the palaoe lights
ohanged oolor, exhibiting all the shades
of the rainbow. The longer the battle
con tinned the hotter the fire became,
nntil at length, after twenty minutes of
continuous fireworks and thousands of
lights shot into the air, the fnsilade fell
off and a few dropping shots were heard
the last of the straggle. As if to
show that their ammunition was not
spent the besieged party kept np their
Are and belohed forth fireworks daring
the entire evening. Those who have
seen the pictures of the night attack
upon Fort Sumter early in the war will
have a faint idea of what the attack upon
the Ioe Palaoe wm like. The snowslioes
then retreated to Mouut Royal, whioh
they ascended, forming a three-mile line
of blanketed Canadian torch bearers on
snow shoes. The head of the line
reached the western summit of the
mountain, while tho last had not left
the Windsor Hotel. Torohoa glanced
through the trees, much like fire creep
ing in the underbrush in the Catskills,
soon from the Hudson river boats some
times.
The head of the line disappeared into
the ravine at the west end and then re
appeared at the summit and commenced
a zigzag descent. Such a brilliant pano
rama defies description. In and out
wont the first section of tho line, wind*
ing, doubling, twisting and belohing
forth, as it were, fire and brimstone.
Apparently it was a huge fiery serpent,
whose vertebra convulsed, writhed aud
emitted sparks from its joints. Each
snowsboer was well supplied with Roman
candloH, aud tlioso kept spitting away
during the whole of the manoeuvres.
For more than an hour tho panorama
continued. Forty thousand eyes of at
least twenty thousand gazers on the Do
minion sqnaro seemed never weary, and
only turned from the spectacle occasion
ally to view the specially attractive
shower from tho palace fireworks. ' The
boauty of the spectnole was that tho
Montreal Inhabitants, from one end of
the city to the other, had it in view tlio
whole time. Tho suowshoers continued
their descent, the procession passed
through the principal streets, singing
their "snowshoe songs,’’ and at length
the merrymakers sought their homos
after midnight.

INHUMAN TREATMENT OF OOAU
BT THF.IB COMPANIONS,
The details of barbarous and cruel
practices indulged in by miners near the
town of Kirksville, in Adair county, Mo.,
have oome to light. In the locality
mentioned there are some cool mines,
but owing to tho out of the way situa
tion regular miners rarely go there in
search of employment, benoe the men
who work the mines ere called "green
horns.” A few weeks ago the operators
of the * mines employed some experi
enced coal diggers, among them being a
man named Chaney. These men soon
discovered that their associates were
greenies,” and resolved to have some
fan with them. Chaney accordingly an
nounced that lie was the Grand Centre
of the Grand Lodge of Miners and had
oome to organize them. The "green
horns" were all eager to beoome mem
bers, and the next night was appointed
ns the time for the organization. All the
niners wore present, and the "Grand
Centre” informed them that only one
candidate wonld be initiated that evening.
Tho candidate selected was then blind
folded and led into the shanty by two
men. He was required to take an oath
not to make known by word or sign any
thing he might see or hear while the
work was being performed, nnder the
penalty of death. He then received the
signs, grips and passwords. The candi
date was next informed that in order to
oomplete the initiation he must be
branded with the grand seal. The man
was then made to partially undress,
when he was branded on the back with
an iron form of the figure 8, made red
hot by a stove in the shanty, thus mak
ing a mark whioh he will carry to his
grave. He was then told to pnt on his
olothes and leave, not, however, without
being reminded of his oath. This per
formance was repeated every night for a
week, each time one of the ignorant
men being mode a victim in the heart-
loss manner described.

A Determined Governor.
The following story is told of Sonato.
Groome, of Maryland: "When he was
Governor he ran np frequently from
Annapolis to Baltimore. One evening,,
just as the train approached a station
half way between the two oities, Groeme
noticed a large orowd standing near the
station; they seemed very muoh excited.
When the train reached tho Htation
Groome saw a colored man tightly held
by two nervous-looking white men, whiio
the orowd danced around him. Groome
jumped off as soon as tho train stopped.
Tho nervous-looking white men told him
that they wore peace officers, that the
negro wns a murderer, and that tho
crowd were lynchers. Groome ordered
the officers aud their prisoners on the
train; told the lynchers that ho wus the
Governor of Maryland aud that they
would stop him at their peril, and then,
getting on the train, forced tho negro
through tho ears up to the engine. Put
ting tho prisoner, now half dead with
fright, into tho cab, he ordered the
eugineer to cut loose tho engine aud run
back to Annapolis. This tho engineer
did, leaving the crowd howling in tho
rear. At Annapolis the Governor turned
his prisoner over to tho Sheriff and then
returned to Baltimoro. I am sorry to
say, says the correspondent who tells
the story, that three nights after that
tho lynchers oame into Annapolis, took
the negro out of jail and hanged him.
All the same. Groome is a plucky man."
A Leap Year Story.
Miss Susan Aramamha Sears did love
aud woo a comely lad; but, all despite
her plaints and tears, a most distressing
time she had—she did not suit her lov
er’s dad. The old man locked his lovely
boy within a dark and lonesome room—
which did the gentle youth annoy and
plunge his soul in dismal gloom, likewise
retard Miss Sears’s boom. The old man
bought a pair of shoes, which, by the
gods of war, he swore he would for
dreadful purpose use if e’er ngain, ns
heretofore, tho girl hung ’round his manj

SuBan crept in through the gateway, un
dismayed, and, while the father soundly
slept, beneath her lover’s window played
and sang a dulcet serenade. Aud as she
sweetly played and sang she had no
thought of harm, I ween; when, lo!
from out the darkness sprang unbidden
to the festive scene, a bulldog of fero
cious mien i The sight of that ferocious
brute made Aram an th a Sears turn pale.
She, shrieking, lied; he gave pursuit;
tho fence, a leap, a growl, a wail—but
why prolong this piteous tale ? Yet, to

and his experiences are given to the publio

“ I bad been having most peculiar sensa

heavy; uiy eyesight did not seem so clear as

was unaccountably tired. It was an effort
to arise in the morning and yet I could not
sleep at night. My inojth tasted badly, I
had a faint all-gone sensation in the pit of
my stomach that food did not at sfy, while
my hands and feet felt cold and clammy. I

“Having the affliction caused by kidney

Mr. II. W. Pnyno, manufacturer of har
ness, saddlery, trunks, \alises, etc., No.
477 Main street. Springfield, Mass., writes us
under date of April 111, lsmt:
“Gentlemen—I have used Hunt’s Remedy,
the b-’st medicine for diseases of the kidneys,
liver, bladder and urirnry organs, mid have
reco.ve 1 great Ixmetlt to my health from its
use, and I find that it will do just what is
claimed for it; it will cure disease and r*-

generations of sufferers, and
so will you say when you hate
tried the “ Mas tang.”
When I was in tho "Dead Letter”
Department the other day, says a Wash
ington correspondent, one of the clerks
engaged in opening letters—at a table
near by—called to tho gentleman who
was entertaining me. He went to him
and immediately bcokoned for me to
follow.
"Now, what oan be done in this
ease ?” he says. "Here is a letter this
instant opened, and yon see what it con
tains?”
There is a clean, new twenty-dollar
oill, neatly folded and wrapped in a
piece of perfectly blank brown paper—
not a mark of pen or pencil to show
from whom it was sent. The letter had
been advertised as unol aimed and was
dead, and the examination of its contents
made it more completely dead than
before.
"We have nothing but the postmark
and ovon that is almost obliterated, bnt
onr expert will take hold of it and do
the best he con with it. There’s a pretty
slim ohanoe in this oase. I guess Uncle
Snm will get that money. This re
minds me of something in my own
experience. A few years ago, when
I was opening letters, I found one
jnst like this, except that the amonnt
wns 830 and on the paper wrapper
around it was written in penoil, ‘A
friend, Matthew vi, 3.’ I looked that
np and fonnd it to be : ’But when thon
doest alms, let not thy left hand know
what thy right hand doeth.’ The letter
wns addressed to a woman and it was
clearly a case of charity. I really felt
had that we oould not suooeed in finding
either partxff and that money is in the
Treasury to-day.”
The number of letters opened last year
containing currency, checks, drafts and
negotiable papers was over 34,000. The
amount of actual cash taken from letters
was nearly $39,000 and the value of
checks, etc., representing money, about
$1,600,000. Daring the last year the
number of pieces of mail matter that
reached the Dead Letter Office was
nearly four and a half millions! The
exact number was 4,440,822. This is
about 14,600 for every day.
