FRIDAY FACTS.
Prof. Chambers has started another
dancing class.
It is rumored that in one of the geog
raphy examinations in the school this
morning , this question was asked :
"Whero is the Norfolk Insane Hospital ,
and where is it to bo ? "
Ohas. Ahlman entertained a few
friends last evening at the homo of his
parents , corner Fifth street and Philip
avenue. The time was very pleasantly
passed by those in attendance.
The person who is without coal in his
coal bin , flour in his flour chest , warm
clothes to cover his back and with no
money to purchase these requisites will
readily agree that this is an unlucky
day.

The Hayes jewelry and music store
kas been remodelled , a new lighting
generator installed and it is now a
; model of neatness and brilliancy , dis
playing a flue array of holiday goods ef
fectively.
The dance given by the young ladies
of Trinity social guild , at Marqnardt
hall was well attended last evening.
The music , furnished by Rouse's orches
tra , was excellent and so inspired the
lancers that they NSore loath to leave
thn hall until the woo small hours of
ho morning.
The impression that the Elks Honoflt
Minstrels to he given in the Auditor-
urn on the evening of the 20th is for
the Elks nnd their wives alone should
not bo received. The entertainment is
for the public generally and a program
s being prepared that will make it
worthy of the patronage of everybody.
On his way to Madison with the oil
wagon Tuesday Wellington Fox mot
with an accident that interfered with
the business of the Standard Oil com
pany , The wagon was put out of ser
vice by one of the wheels breaking
down nnd ho was compelled to abandon
ono of his teams as well as the wagon.
This morning ho started out to fix up
the wreck and complete his journeyer
or return with the outfit to town.
The dance by Norfolk camp , No. 4H2 ,
Modern Woodmen of America , given in
the Mast hall last evening was well at
tended , the hall being full of members
and their friends. Fifty couples partic
ipated in the pleasures of the dauco and
the entertainment was a pronounced
success socially , financially and in every
other particular. The Italian orchestra
furnished the music and the occasion
was thoroughly enjoyed by all partici
pants.
This is another of these unlucky days
Friday , the lUth. There were two
of those days this year and the last ono ,
September the 13thwas when President
McKiuloy was dying and the nation
was in gloom. Ho didn't die on the
15Jth , hut the superstitious will connect
that day with his death to make their
belief good. What will happen today
remains to bo seen. It is to bo hoped
that nothing serious will happen , how
ever. There will bo but one of those
unlucky days next year and that will bo
in Juno.
The fair and dinner conducted by the
ladies of the Congregational church yes
terday and today in the Rudat building
has been most successful. The ladies
had their Christmas goods displayed in
booths and they mot with such generous
patronage that most of them have been
disposed of. There was a large attend
ance at the dinners and the receipts
from the fair promise to bo largo. An
interesting feature was a voting contest
in which a large and handsome doll was
the prize , votes being cast for the most
popular little girl. The latest report
from the contest was that' Rohinetto
Bear was loading but there wore many
other competitors and the contest will
probably close with a lively finish.
When the sun rose this morning his
splendor was reflected by two brilliant
snndogs which were companions dur
ing the greater part of his majesty's
trip to the zenith. The sun ittolf was
eushouded in a golden halo of daz/.ling
brilliancy and a bright shaft of light ex
tended above and below. About 11
o'clock another strange feature of the
exhibit was noticed , being a crescent-
shaped exhibition of brilliant prismatic
coloring directly overhead. It was sug
gested that it was a rainbow , but it
wasn't there was no rain and it
must have been either a frost or snow
bow. The entire morning presentee
beautiful phenomenon in connection
with the sun and he was fortunate who
saw them.
AnyoneJ snpplied with a reasonable
share of nerves would not have to be
told that the weather was cold last
night but many were surprised to learn
the extent of the coldness. There wore
few readyjtojbeliove that the tempera
ture hadfroached a point 12 degrees be
low zero but that is the record indi
cated by Dr. Sailer's government thermometer
mometer and it is a fairly reliable in
strument. The suddenness of the drop
took many unawares and several mer
chants and citizens met with losses , per
ishable goods being frozen in cellars in
some instances. The temperature has
not warmed to any appreciable extent
during the day and it will not be sur
prising if the thermometer registers
still lower tonight.

ANIMALS KILLED IN THE YARDS.
Trail of Wagon Is Followed and Ar
rests are Made , but It Is Probable
that a Conviction Cannot bo Se
cured ,
A peculiar case of hog stealing was
brought to light nt the Junction during
; ho past 21 hours. A car of hogs con
signed to South Omaha was discovered
to bo shy two when it reached its ties-
tinjitiou besides containing ono dead
animal. The proper ofiluors were noti
fied and investigation by Chief of Police
Kane and his assistants Nhowed that the
car had boon broken into hero Wednes
day night and some of the stock re
moved and butchered in the railroad
yards.
A wagon supposed to have boon used
, n hauling the booty away was traced to
n house in Nonow's addition , und in
vestigation of u wagon there showed
; lmt it had recently been used in haul
ing hogs , ns thuro wore blood marks ,
nxir and other indications of the purpose
tor which it had boon employed , but a
search under warrant failed to disclose
the property. Therefore , evidence that
would secure a conviction was lacking.
The otllcors investigating the caoo are
satisfied in their own miuds as to who
was guilty of the theft , but they are
lacking in evidence that would convince
a court of the suspected parties' guilt
They are still on the outlook for ovi
deuce but are of the opinion that the
facts necessary have boon covered up or
destroyed and that a conviction will he
Impossible.
Henry Carson and Paul Burns were
arrested last night on suspicion of hav
ing knowledge of the theft and will bo
given a [ preliminary hearing tomorrow
morning at 0 o'clock but unless some
convincing testimony is developed con
necting them with the case they will
probably bo dismihsod.
Superintendent Reynolds of the Nor
folk division F. E. & M. V. has ener
getically endeavored to locate the per
sons guilty of the theft nnd while his
effoitsnmy not prove successful it is
notice to those who are so inclined that
stealing on his division may not bo
conducted with impunity.
