An article in this paper last wock
stating that no losses weto reported
from the blizzard seems to have boon a
littlo preinrturo from reports heard on
our streets last Saturday. Almost uv.
eryono seems to have met with a loss of
some kind through tho storm, oithorof
hogs, poultry or cattle, uudsomoaio
reported ns losing as high as sixty
head of hogs, not ftom freezing, but
from piling up ai.d smothering, A.3"w
gouoial thiug the farmers woro uapro
pared for so severe a a Aim, houue tho
loss.
Why don't somo ibvontlvo genius
rig up a snow plow suitable for clean
ing sidewalks. This is something that
could 'bo rigged up with littlo expense,
and ono man with the assistance of a
hoiso could make u good thing out of
it by cleauing tho walks.over tho city
both iu the business and lesidouce por
tions, after each snow storm. There
tiro very fow business men or citizens
but what would sooner pay a small
sum to have their walks cleared than to
have to got out and shovel it off them
selves, and especially so if the ther
mometer stands about the zero mark.
Prof. Kuowles and wife, hypnotists,
with their assistants have held the
boards at the opoia houso siuco Wed
nesday and the attendance nightly has
been phenomenal. They have fully
satisfied tho public that they make no
claims in thoir art which they cannot
successfully carry out. Most of tho
situations in which tho subjects were
placed were comical to tho extromo
and promoted much aieiriment. While
tho hypnotic power may bo all right in
tbe possession of honest poopio for tho
purposo of entertainment it looks us
if it could bo usod as a powerful weapon
by tho unscrupulous. Entortainmonts
will bo given throughout the week.

out some timo previous to tho construe
tlon of the road, It was allowed that nil
funoral'processlons should bo allowed
to paifl"along tho latter frco of toll. Ono
day, as a woll known physician who
was driving along tho road stopped to
pay his toll, ho obsorved to tho keoper :
"Considering the benevolont character
of our profession I think you ought to
lot us pass frco of charge." "No, no,
doctqr,"said tho gatekeeper, "wo can't
afford that, you send too many dead
heads through as lt is." Tho story
traveled around tho country, and tho
word "deadhead" was eventually ap
plied to those who obtained frco admis
sion to thojthpatio. Ex.
Ai sooq as an attraction is booked
at tbb opera house It is tho customary
question for tho public to ask: "How
many nro thoro in tho company?" Tho
question that should bo asked is: "Who
are tho aotois or artists, and aio thoy
go?d?" It only requires n inuinont's
leflcction to. realize that no nmtuccr
can carry a company of ten, lifteeu or
twenty artists and have them till lit st
ulass, for good artists not only tlutnand
a largo salary but iustat on Its being
paid. Mr. Hey wood bollovos that tho
general publiu prefer to sec six or
eight first cla"? city artists to a whplo
stage full of "burnstoi mors" und has
surrounded himself with artists as lino
in thoir.respectlvo linos as Hey wood is
in his. Tho result is a porformanco
that from riso to fall of curtain is foil
of pure fresh fun, popular music, on
tertainlng specialties and beautiful
women. This atti action is to appear
hero on tho evening of DoeomborOth,
1808, at the opera house.
