WEATHER VERY
GOLD AND CLEAR
Last Night Colder Than Night Bclore.
Is Very Near Zero.
From Wt'iliu'mlrty'i lhilly,
The Cold weather of the past few
day has resulted In a big flow of Ice
In the river and the continuance of
the snap means an early closing of
the channel. As It is the ferry Is
out of commission, the boat not hav
ing operated either yesterday or
today and of little prospect of again
resuming Its trips for some days to
come. The Ice Is running very
thick and at times seems to Jam. The
Jama do not hold long however, but
soon break and the flow Is resumed.
It Is so thick now that the continu
ance of the freezing weather over an
orther night or so, means the freez
ing of the mass Into a solid body.
This afternoon the weather Is some
warmer than for the past two days
and the sky Is t loaded over with In
dications of snow.
Reports from the west and north
indicate very cold weather last night.
In this city the thercmomtters this
morning registered from two to six
above zero. Reports from points in
the Dakotas, Minnesota, and the
Canadian northwest indicate that
the temperature last night readied
considerably below the zero mark as
It was colder than the night before
when the mercury got down to one
below at St. Paul. Minn and twenty
below at Winnipeg.
Owing to the suddenness of the
change the weather has been severely-
felt and reports on the cattle range
where the snow fall was heavy. In
dicate great suffering among the cat
tle. Reports from the cities do not
indicate unusual amount of suffer
ing from the cold, owing probably to
the brief time the snap has been on
Trains through here today were on
time and the snow and bad weather
has not appreciably affected them, so
far as their schedule Is concerned.
The floods In Oklahoma and Kan
sns have greatly subsided the cold
Weather helping In this respect ma
terlally and It Is believed the worst is
over In these sections.
A Fine Steam Table.
From Monday' I nll y.
J. E. Daniel this morning received
a fine steam table which be will In
stall In his place today and which he
hopes to have In flue working shape
tomorrow. The table Is all copper
and has three receptacles, two of
which can be used for serving chill
sauerkraut and the like while the
center one will be used for hot
roasts of different kinds. It Is
handsome piece of furniture and as
Is usual with everything Mr. Daub
buys, It Is the very best money can
purchase. The primary object of the
table is to serve hot free lunch upon

Narrow Ksciipo From Hunting.
From Wedni-mlay' Pally.
Last evening t). P. Monroe was the
probable cause of saving the paint
shop and probably other buildings
of the Burlington from destruction by
fire, by his prompt and vigorous
work. Mr. Monroe had been to the
city and was driving home past the
shops when he noticed a light in
the paint .shop, he paused and
watched the light and presently con
cluded that It was a fire. He at once
tied up his horse and ran Into the
shop yards, going to the door of the
paint shop and trying It but finding
It locked. He then ran down to the
boiler house where he found night
Watchman Oliver Gllson, and to
gether they hurried back to the shop
hlch Gllson opened. They dlscov-
red one of the large closets In the
building in flames. The two men at
once turned In and by dint of hard
work soon had the water upon the
loset ami the flames under control
and out. It was a piece of good
work well done and Mr. Monroe de
serves the thanks or the company
for his forethought and observation.
It Is always a good Iden for a man to
notice nnythng unusual such as
this light was and to Investigate It.
The loss had the flames been allowed
little further headway must have
been heavy.
Their Marriage Legal.
Krom Wednesday's llly.
Yesterday at Nebraska City, Judge
Travis handed down a decision in
case Involving the legality of a
marriage between a white man and
ingress. Some time ago James
Hand, a white man was arrested for
living with a negro woman and held
for trial In the district court. The
facts as developed in the case went
to show that the two had been mar
ried in Council lllufl's, la., In No
vember by a Justice of the
peace and had been living together
since that time as man and wife
at various places. As the Iowa laws
do not make such a marriage Illegal
the court held yesterday that the mar
riage must be recognized as a legal
one mid discharged the parties from
custody. I'nder the laws of this
state such a marriage would be
illegal and the parties could have
been prosecuted but the laws of a
sister state must be recognized as
binding. The case developed great
Interest In Nebraska City where
strong prejudice against such an
union existed.
Good Cougli Medicine for Children
The season for coughs and colds
Is now at hand and too ruich care
cannot be used to protect the child
ren. A child Is more likely to con
tract dlptherla or scarlet fever when
he has a cold. The quicker you
cure his cold the less risk. Chamber
Iain's Cough Remedy Is the sole re
llance of many mothers, and few of
them who have tried It are willing to
use any other. Mrs. F. F. Sturdier
of Ripley. V. Va says: "I have
never used anything other than
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for
my children and It has always given
good satisfaction." This remedy con
tains no opium or other narcotic and
may be given confidently to a child a
to an adult. For sale by F. G. Frlcke

In a I'e.'trfiil Condition
From Moiulav'H Imily.
The condition of Main and Sixtli
street today is something fierce
There Is n coating of mud over the
pavement to the depth of several
inches which makes It nearly Impos
sible to get across the street without
recourse to waders and the center of
the streets is taken up by a stream
of water several inches In depth.
At the southeast corner of Main and
Sixth streets, the mud has blocked
the water up and a fish pond of sever-
al feet in length and 5 or fi Inches In
depth has formed, almost cutting off
communication btween the different
sides of the streets except by boat.
It might be Just as well for the city
authorities to let this water out even
If they do Insist In having the mud
cn the streets. Along north anl
South Sixth streets the water stands
