The largo retail dry goods, milline and jewelry houscs are rc displaying their holiday stoc having a good run of custom The real estate market is active, de- sirable property commands high' fig: ures, and capitalists are largely invest- ing in it.

Large gangs of men are daily at work placing the rail and iron yokes in_position. On Stato street three miles of rail have been laid, leaving another one to be finished. If favored by the weather clerk with open weather, the linc is expected to be in operation by Jauuary 1. The horscs, who now furnish the motive power for the street cars, will then be laid off, and the public will suffer no delays in the future from horse flesh, who are attacked almost yeatly with *‘pink- eye” or some kindred complaint, un- fitting them for service. The cable road will no doubt prove succossful, and it will bo operated on the same principle as the San Francisco lines, The war in eastern passenger rates still continues, and the Vanderbilt lines, the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern and Michigan Central are still ““on the fight” with the Pennsylvania and Bal- timore & Ohio roads. Rrtes are for- ever changing and do mot remain stationary for any lengthfof time. It is a fight of one monopoly against another, and so far has proven disas- trous to them, but of benefit to the traveling public. Chicago as an art centre is gaining a reputation that she deserves and miy well be proud of. Among our citizens aro many artists and lovers of art, and there are now here in success- ful operation two schools, the Academy of Kine Arts and the Academy of Design, the former school baving the reputation of being one of thebest west of New York, with a membership of ono hundred and twenty-five active members, and a corps of teachers in the several branches taught of ac- knowledged ability.

This was about seven weeks ago, and the couple immediately started on |a wedding trin. They went throuzh the principal Southern cities, and at last they thought, they would visit Texas, After g through a large portion of the state they came to Brownstone. As they were walking through the streets on their way to the hotel they were stopped by a lig, broad-shouldered, sun-burnt fellow, who extel 1 his hand to Mrs. Malone and exclaimed “Why, Kfttie, don't you know Ed Feel” There was hearty shaking of hands, and the next day they were all at Mr. Fee's ranch, a mile or sofrom Browns- town, and incidentally poor Ed said he hoped Maggie's husband was a good one. “Maggie's husband?” cried M Malone, *‘why, what do you mean “Ain't Maggie married”’ he an- swored, tremblingly. “Why, no; whoever put that into your head?” The party were then treated to a can-can dance executed by Mr, Fee, and soveral vory good imitations of Indian war-whoops, for he had ac- quired a rather rough way of express- 2 his feelings by his cow-boy expe- ri 1t was o very happy party though, and the next day Mr. Fee put his affairs into proper shape and started thiscity. Of course, when he got here, there was a scene, He didn’t have such great difficulty in pressing his suit, and that was the reason that there was a wedding in St. Patrick’s Church yesterdsy morning. Mr. Fee will tuke his wife to Texas with him in a day or so, and they will carry with them to their far-away home the good wishes of all therr frioude.

A Louisville correspondent says; Yesterdsy mornmg a litle crowd gathered at St. Patrick’s Church, on the corner of Thirteenth and Market streets, to see a young couple married.

In spite of all this, however, it was one of the most rc mantic woddings hat has huppened here for many a day. From the par- tiss concerned, and from?! those who have known the fuxmly intimately for years, we aro enablud to give the de- tails of a most romantio story. About ton yoars ago there hved in this city a family named Sin.Luir, consisting of a father, mothi wnd two dughters. With them thers was a young gentle man namegl Bdwarda Fee. The family had been well-to-do ut one time, but luck changed, aud at the time mon- tioned they had just enough to live well. One of the young ladies, Miss Kit- tie, was but 13 yoars, and wasa dash- ing littlo brunet, Her wister, Maggie, was fair of face and soft of speech, and between her and young Fee there soon sprang up a very close attach- ment, He was 25 yoarsold and didn't have a great deal of money, end she was just 10, ‘Chow friendship deep- ened into love as the time passed, and one fine day the yourg man told his love, His busins: was not paying him very weli, au, ufter much con- sultation with foonds, Fee left the city to make hs torione, His adven- tures for the lat vears would fill B e - The present season of navigation on the lakes will soon close.

The wheel, which throws the snow from 100 to 200 feet, and at an angle of twenty-five d s from the track, is constructed so a8 to cut the snow with a shearing motion, inetead of scooping it up like a shovel. Tt is propelled by powerful engines, constructed and ar- ranged on a car made purposely for this machine, giving the wheel the re- quired powerand velocity toenableit to throw the snow, by centrifugal force, at a great highth and distance. There are two wings projecting over the wheel from each uppe ar which break the ¢ forming two se of fo i comil ilar current, o onos at an anglo 8. All the snow with the wheel, bolow the nxle, passes out by the lower, or side, rent, and that which comes above the axle passes out by the top current, When the plow is workiye in deep suow, it will throw the upper current through snow where it is sev feet higher than the ma- chine. The wheel can be reversed, thereby taking advantage of the wind, low sides of cuts, hills, and mountains. The apron is mude of botler iron of suitablo thickness, bolted together, and so suitable that the forward end rests a slight distance above the rails, and gradually inclines upward us it approaches the car until it reaches the bladesof the wheels, where it vuns horizontally backward paralle] to the ends of the blades, which work over it. This portion of the apron immediately under the wheel, instead of lying jarallel to the track, as at the front end, is formed in the arc of u cir- cle of little larger diameter than the circumference of the wheel, thereby affording no room for the snow to be- come clogged or impacted on the apron. The siaes ascond at an angle of about 45 degress to where the rounded portion of the apron stops, and then continue vertically upward a suflicient distance to assist in forming the desired current. The plow is of suflicient width to clear the snow from the track and from both sides thereof to allow the cars to pass through, and is of such form at its front end that, after opening the passage, the snow at the sides has no tendency to fall onto the track. une 10e 8 onTLRSR S dhrmace Malye: bruises, sores, ulcers, salt rhoum, fever sores, toetter, chapped hands, chillblains, corns and all kinds of skin eruptions, This salve is guar anteed to give perfect satisfaction in every cass or mony refunded.
