Practical Telegraphy.
The climate is certainly one of the most bracing that I ever was in. When I was in Chicago on my way up her I was told that when I got here I would want to double up my fist and knock down the first man that I came to, not out of mean motives at all, but just for the amusement and personal satisfaction that one gets from, exercise when he feels like moving around. When I got here I found there was a deal of truth in what the man had told me. I put in from an hour and a half to two hours and a half a day wearing out the side walks, never take a street car unless I am in a hurry, or going 12 or 15 miles. I have been up to Minneapolis twice since coming."
Speaking of his work he says:
"Up here we have a 12,000 to 15,000 word report and some times more, to handle in the same time that I used to handle the Kansas report. They abbreviate and "cut it up" all that is possible. When a first class operator gets behind the key and begins to pound it into you and uses abbreviations at the rate of 240 a minute, you can just better believe there has got to be some hustling done.
They use "Jx" for "it is;" "Tx" for "this is;" "Pr" for "president," "Aut" for "adjourned until tomorrow;" "Yam" for "yesterday morning;" "Pem" for "presented a memorial;" "Td" for "treasury department;" and a few more about as bad and then try to see how fast they can crowd a man. It is sweating work even during a blizzard."

CROWN AND SCEPTER.
The full name of the Princess Victoria May is Victoria Mary Augusta Louisa Olga Paula Claudine Agnes.
Leopold II, the reigning monarch of Belgium has no son, and the heir to the crown is his brother, Philip, count of Flanders.
Osseur II of Sweden married Princess Sophia of the mediatized duchy of Nassau, and has four sons, the eldest of whom is the prince royal, Gustavus.
The month of January is always regarded with the most gloomy anticipation by the queen of the Belgians, who believes it will inevitably bring some misfortune.
The German empress is in the habit of writing for a few minutes daily in her diary. A lady who for years has had the honor of her majesty's friendship says that the contents of the diary, not even the emperor.
The King of the Greeks has no lack of direct descendants. His heir, Prince Constantine, is the eldest of eight children, and has a son, George, born in 1800, the offspring of a marriage with Sophia, third sister of the Kaiser William.

Our Athletic Grounds.
Money to loan on personal property at Passon's Bazar,723 Mass. st.
At last the contract for grading the athletic field has been let, and active work will soon be done towards fitting it up for immediate occupation. Prof. Marvin has been appointed by Chancellow Snow to oversee the work which assures good results. When completed, the grounds will be the finest of its kind in the west. Besides the base ball, tennis and foot ball grounds which it will include, there will also be a spacious grand stand and other necessary buildings. But there is one thing lacking which would be conducive to convenience as well as a good bank account for those immediately concerned—The extension of the Lawrence Street railway system. It would not cost a great deal to extend the Tennessee street track west to the engine house, southwest of the University, and then north to the grounds and on to Massachusetts street by the best route possible. The grade is a splendid one and the results realized from a financial standpoint alone would compense those concerned. Why not investigate this matter Mr. Athletic Association?
Field Day.
By all means let us have a rousing field day. Let us shake the dust off our shoes and go in with a hurrah for one day of sport. We have plenty of good material to make it successful. The merchants would only be too glad to contribute to its success. They have manifested a most liberal spirit in the past toward helping such an enterprise. Then why not have a field day? Why not have a most enjoyable contest just to find out, if nothing else, who is our champion foot racer, who can jump the farthest, who can throw throw the farthest and etc, etc There is Dobson, an all around athletic, and who they say can run like the wind, and there is Sherman and hosts of others are willing to go into the arena if only an opportunity is offered Of course this is a little early to agitate the question but if we are going to have an early one, say the first week in May, then we must make early preparations. Let us have a field day.

After the milk-and-water society melodramas which have been running here all winter it is refreshing to see one of the old-fashioned realistic dramas, such as 'The Bandit King,' which was produced at Niblo's Garden last night. With live horses on the stage and hairbreadth escapes from death, its attention is constantly riveted upon the actors.—New York Graphic They are here next Wednesday,

SO IT IS TRUE.
Here's a friend who says that sorrow
Comes today or comes tomorrow;
Here's a longfare to you is moaning!
Tell a friend you love me!
Let dull age go weep and pray;
Heed not grief, the ghost there, greening.
Who would cloud the journ day!
Ah, they say that anguish found them,
Men cut down with battle round them—
(Hear the boys there gayly singing!)
In some region far away!
What lunge care on earth today?
Bring no tears, what'er you're bringing;
Honor to the journ day!
What's that sound that cools our laughter?
What's that form that follows after"
Funeral music sounded so-
One more man is turned to clay.
Let dull age go weep and pray!
Lying there in breathless blindness,
Death is never far away.
Even youth can weep and pray!
I suspect that loved have lost their kindness;
Daughter is never far away.

Returned the Papers.
moved into a house that had been previously occupied by another gentleman who was a subscriber to one of the evening papers. The carrier of course continued leaving the paper for a space of a year, never having been notified of the change. The collector recently went around to collect for the paper, the bill being made out in the name of the gentleman who had subscribed. When the collector presented the bill the gentleman of the house said:
"Why, my dear sir, that man has not lived here for over a year. You are at the wrong house."
"Well, has not the carrier been leaving you a copy of the paper all the time?"
"Yes, sir. But I did not subscribe and I told the boy to quit leaving it But he never did so."
"You have received the paper every day, haven't you?"
"Yes, sir."
"Then you ought to pay for it."
"Well, excuse me a moment," and the gentleman went into the house. Returning in a moment he lugged out a stack of newspapers half as tall as himself.
"Here are your papers, sir; I have no use for them."
He had read them and carefully filed the collector sent a transfer wagon to anail away a year's accumulation of papers, the pay for which he failed to get, because one man returned them and the man never received them.—Chattanooga Times.
Not the Worst Girl in the World.
Not the Worst Girl in the World.
Professor Chapman, of Bowdoin college, told the following story at an alumni dinner: "I feel like the little girl of a mine in Portland. She just must know about expressing herself in intelligent sentences. One day she had done something for which her mamma had to reprove her. The lady gave her daughter a sound lecture and then told her to go up stairs alone, in her room, and ask God to forgive her for her error.
“In a few minutes she was surprised to see the baby come down stairs again. appear in the sitting room and stand back with a great deal of seriousness. “‘Well, did you go up and do what I told you?’ asked the fond mother. ‘Yes,’ replied the guilty one, ‘and God said, ‘Great Scott! Elsa Murray. I've known a great many worser girls than you.’” “Boston Herald.”

Reliable experts claim this is today the richest camp in colorado. Assays average $100 per ton, and have run as high as $5,000. One hundred people a day are now rushing to Fremont, chief town of the district.
