N". I*io no official or agent,’ re
plied the man, in a lonesome voice j
‘I live there, and that woman was
my wife.’
A Happy Faintly.
The other evening at 0 o’clock, a
policeman found a family of five per- ,
sons and two old trunks under a shed
near the foot of Second street, waiting i
to go up the river on a wood-barge
which wouldn't leave until the next I
forenoon. The man had botli hands
pleated to his face, the woman was
wiping Iter eyes on a handkerchief and
all the children were sipialllhg.
‘What seems to be the matter?’ in
quired llie officer, as lie halted among
them.
•Oli nothing much,’ answered the
man‘l've got the jumpin' toothache,

‘What ails your wife?’
‘Oh, she’s kinder tired out and nei

It is well for his peace of mind
that our local sigottl corps observer
is located about half a mile above
the ordinary walks of life. Were

until lie was gradually killed and
buried Yesteiday furnished a
fair sample of the way most peo
ple would talk to him if they could
get at him. lie was busy with the
temiierature of the lower lake re
gion when a citizen, pulling like a
whale on a lee shore, gained the
tower and began :
•It’s snowing.’
‘Yes,’ was the quid reply.
‘lt’s snowing like Texas!’
‘Yes,’ again.
‘Yesterday we had dust two inch
es deep, and now wo have snow
enough lor sleighing!’
‘I guess we have.’
‘And it is going to snow all day

•1 think so.’
‘And we will have mud and slush
and slosh for the next week?’
'Very likely.’
‘Very likely ! Why, «;r, I—l—

He was so road lie could not fin

‘Snow! What business lias it to

and rain, and slush, arid slop over!
Hang me, hut I can stand it if Un
