Among those who have been tempted to put on the treaclierous skates, witfchtn a day or two were several of the oldw boys and business men. President "Wagner, of the Y. M. C. A., is quite a.n expert on the steels, rand can cut his name on the ice without auaklng a ekip. Ex-Ald. D. Fred Schal rer is not iquite as ileet of foot as .Mr. Wagner, but he is all right on the Icircle- pTO'vkling he lias room enough. Treasuirer Soule, of the Univcisity, bo'Ught himself a brand new pair of club skates yesterday, and Avent to the river with the enthusiasm of ithirty yearB ago. He got along pretty well, I tliank you. He didn't sit down only once when he didn't want to, and even then lie was con■inced bef ore reaching itHe ent ie ing surfaie of the ice, ttoat it was the best thing to do under the circumstainces. Not one of tiieee advanced clase of boys liane brokeai a hole through íthe ice, or brokem their necks eiit-her ome, as far as O'Ur informant fcnows, tut two or tliree whose mames ■wïll not be mentioned, oait of respect to tlie ice, ca;rry upon their pereome some elegant specimens of shadimg - in black and blue. "When ome sees the kids, glidinig over the glassy suriace of tlie pond like sö majiy ispiders on a frolic, it does sort 'o make thO bloiod tingle in one's toes; but tliein, some way, the boys appear to have a cinch on the glide.
