Fast falls the snow, Oh ! lady mine.
Sprinkling the lawn with crystals fine;
But by tbe gods! we won't repine
While we're together.

Then stir the fire and pour tbe wine
And let those sea-green e es divine
Pour their love madness into mine.
I don't care whether
'Tis sun or snow or storm or shine,
if we're together.

There was iust snow enough fell last

to make good coasting. The weather, at
tbe same time, moderated so that the

Quite a number of persona samnled

scout an men tnics, ana this only along
the edge of tbe slough. - Still it was
skating, and so tbe boys stayed with it

A bold, bad man took possession of

brisk Christmas appearance for a while
until Marshal Blakeney was Bent for,
who took him in charge and put him in
the city refrigerator to cool off.
Florida has been visited by a blizzard

ice formed on the ponds. '
We are requested to state by several of
our business men that they will not
collect until Thnreday, the 3d day of
January, A. D., 1895. Owing to the co
incidence of tbe first day of the month
falling on the first day of the year, and
both coming before the usual collection
day, or the 2d, caused this action, which
we suppose will be made unanimous.

Miss Lilla Wentworth, accompanied
by a black eye, visited the city recorder's
office this morning and made complaint

was not actuated by malice, but moved
only by a desire to see tbe statutes of the
state upheld.

We Will Still Smoke.
Tomorrow being New Year's day, the
usual amount of good resolutions will be
made in the morning, many of which
will be broken before nfght, and all of
them before a month. When you see
Jones going around looking like his
mother-in-law was coming to visit him,
you may know that he has discarded
his pipe. By noticing his face each
morning you can tell when the unequal
struggle is lost. Jones can quit any
time, and as soon as he satisfies himself
on this point by abstaining for from 24
to 48 hours, he knows that no habit can
ever get the best of him, and so, feeling
perfectly safe, he finds his pipe again.
Smith has the same plan for rum. Rob
inson is equally successful in quitting
pool and staying out late, and so in turn
tbe whirligig turns round, and we all
pursue the even tenor of our sinful ways.
As for us, gentle reader, we have but
one really bad habit, and that is a han
kering after a good cigar. We have no
intention of swearing off, either, for we
have tried it just enough to know that
we can if we want to. No, sir, we don't
intend to swear off until we see if we
have to.
The Glorious Climate of Texas.
"Yes, seh," said Representative
Hutcbeson, of Texas, to a Washington
Post reporter, in reply to the usual re
mark; "yes, seh, this certainly is a
charming day. But us folks from Texas
don't enthuse over it, because you know
seh, we have this kind o' weather right
along down in our state. Our skies rival
the blue of Italy's far-famed cerulean
vault, and from the birth of winter, seh,
till tbe beautiful month of May melts in
the lap of gorgeous perfumed June, the
fragrance of whose roses sweetens the
breath of our nostrils till winter, those j
skies look down on the Lone Star state
and see just such weather as this."
"As good as the far-famed weather of
Florida, Mr. Hutcheson?"
"As good, seh? Better, And what's
more, we are not eternally talking about
it, either. But then we don't live
through the summers on fish and
through the winter on Yankees."
