About 11:30 a division was had, which resulted: 206 against and 258 in favor. This ts a strong example of the influence of the ministry.

But those who watch the movements of these shining wanderers will agree in placing Jupt- ter at the head of the list. Oa the 19th he reaches the most interesting point in his course, for at 10 o'clock on the evening of that day he is in opposition. A straight line drawn from the mighty Jupiter to the more through the earth, our little planet lying between the two monsters of the system.

Saturn is evening star, and secures the third place on the list in the order of beauty and bright- ness. He scarcely changes his position during the month, only slightly retrograding. His path is therefore easy to follow, for, thoazh far ex. ceeded by Jupiter in starry splendor, he is beau- tiiul to behold with his soft and serene light. He makes his transit now at half-past o'clock, and then sinks slowly to the west, | lowed by a retinue of the brightest stars that twinkle in the sky, and taking precedence of Jupiter and Mars who follow after.

He still holds his one claim to distinction, heading the procession of outer planets in the time of his appearance, and making his transit about half-past 8 o'clock. THE MOON. The January moon fulls on the 12th, at twenty-eight minutes after 10 o'clock in the morning, standard time. On the 8th, at two minutes after 1 o'clock in the mcrning, the moon makes a close conjunction with Neptune, being six minutes south. In some localities on the globe. the moon occults the planet. On the 9th, at fourteen minutes after 2 o'clock in the morning, she is in conjunction with Saturn, being one degree south. "She will occult Saturn in some localities between 25 degrees and 71 de- grees southern declination, the only time during the year. On the 13th she is inconjunction with Jupiter; on the 14th with Mars; and on the 17th with Uranus. On the 26th, two days before her change, she is at her nearest point to Mercury. Her latest conjunction is the most interesting, for, on the 30th, she will hang her silver crescent a tew degrees north of tne lovely evening star. Crescent and planet, though the approach is not near, will be fair to see. The conjunction takes place at sixteen minutes after 4 o’clock in the evening, when the moon is 5 degrees 7 minutes north of Venus. eee Making Love Many Miles by Mail. From the St. PeulPioncer Press, Orlando P. Williams and wife are visiting friends in St. Peter and vicinity. Mr. Williams is the owner of a fine farm at Lake Washington, Le Seuer county, and was a widower until afew weeks ggo. About one year ago Mr. Willlams went to Minneapolis to live, and the lady with whom: he boarded wrote to Miss Jenkins, of Manghester, N. H., and recommended Mr. Wil- liams as a suitable man for her to correspond with, A correspondence was soon commenced between Mr. Williams and Miss Jenkins, which resulted in Mr. Williams agreeing to send Miss Jenkins money to pay her way to Minneapolis, ant also enough to pay her way back again in case she was not pleased with him after seeing him. Miss Jenkins came on and was well pleased with her new-found lover, and two days after her arrival in Minneapolis they were married and are both as happy as can be. pect, and no one caa wonder tiat the th he never at distin- hes Venus ather period of greatest bril- y they | fairest of not , | lines and keeping the hole: With 60 bright a | SMELT-FISHING IN MAINE, ‘The Army of Sportsmen Encamped on the Ice. From the New Xork Times, “If any one likes fishing through the ice with the thermometer 10 degrees below zero and the wind blowing sometimes at the rate of twenty- five miles an hour, he can find nis ideal sport just now on any of the rivers and inlets along the coast of Maine,” said ‘Mort Scott, well known in Li circles in thi. who re- turned on Saturday from a week's fishing for smelt on the Maine coast. melt-fishing: is now at its best up there, but the weather is about at its werst.

But there were scores of fishermen on the ice when I left, for the smelt seem to bite better the colder it 1s, and afler this month the fishing gets poorer, the fish moving graduaily to other quarters. “Smelt-tshing throngh the tee,” continued the speaker, “does not differ much from the same mode of angling for pickerel, but the element of uncertainty is unknown in the former sport.

On Wednesday of last week I was having a busy time in my house. I had only two holes in use, for the tlsh were biting so lively that I couldn't take care of any more. It was snowing hard and blowing harder, but my | flre was roaring inside, and I was tolerably com- tortabl Suddenly, along came one of those zephyrs that love to play up and down the Maine coast. It seemed to think that I was cutting things a little too fat around there, and it stopped at my hut, got a leverage on my grapples, and the next instant hat, fisherman, stove and all were moving off at lively speed. The front part of the stove—which not much more than a toy stove, being only two and a half feet long—dropped into ene of the holes in the ice, and the whole business went down among the smelt. We were scudded along for a hundred yards, when my house came in | contact with another fisherman's house. This called a sudden halt, and I took advantage of it | to erawl hastily out. The collision loosened the grapples on the other house, and in a moment | both were flying onward before the wind. The | gale had played the same game with other huts, | and they were flying alonz over the ice in all | parts of the inlet. The gale lasted for not more than ten minutes, but a whole smelt-fishing vi lage had been moved about aiile from Its site when it ended. That little episode convince me that it would be more pleasant for me to leave smeit-fishing until next May or June, and then resume it ona convenient trout stream; so I struck my tent and cut sticks for Belfast. “I believe smelt-fishing !s becoming more pop- ular every year, and even the ladies are mani- festing a willingness to brave its risks and, sometimes, its hardships. There was a party of three ladies and gentlemen from Boston camped on the ice when I came away.” —_____-e- ____ © Polite Conductor, and the Reason. From the New York Tribune, The car was 80 full that men hung over the dash-boaras and stood on the steps, and the conductor found difficulty in forcing his way through to collect fares. But the press did not seem to affect him. He smiled sweetly on the women, and exerted himself to find seats for them. He jerked the bell strap with alacrity and gave an additional fatherly shove to those who insisted on getting into the car. He slapped the men patronizingly on the back ashe requested in blandest tones, ‘Fares, gents, if you please,” and responded to all questions in a cheerful, encouraging manner. Passengers stared at him. * “Isheanew man,” they whispered, ‘or is this his accustomed humor?” Some of the women congratulated themselves upon their good fortune in poling into his car, and dark eyes gleamed with gratitude upon him. With gentle hands he payee the way through the crowd for a tall, robust man with a gray moustache, chin whiskers and a silk hat, who came from the forward end of the car and alighted at 69th street. “Bad track to-night, sir,” he said, bowing obsequiously. every,” replied the robust man. ‘Don’t to make up your time—you can’t do it—an tell your driver to be easy on his horses.” “AN right, sir; cood-night, sir.” “Boss?” queried a passenger of the gentle conductor. “Yes, that’s the president of the company.
