Mercury Sent Down to n Point 20 Do- Rroos Below Zoro. from Batnul r' Dully ' The temperature has evidently started In to break all provi > UR records this winter and if the start ia an indication of what IB to follow during the time this auction usually experiences ita coldest wonthor it may bo taken for grunted that the record will bo badly loft in the raoo. Thursday night was generally considered sufficiently cqld for all prac tical purposes when the mercury dropped to 13 below /.OTO , but when this morning's record showed a minimum temperature of 28 below the zero point , it was notice that the previous night's work of the frost king WOB simply a starter. The maximum 6r highest tem perature for the 24 hours ending at 8 o'clock this morning was four dogreoa below y.oro and the weather has wormed but Hlightly , if any , during today. The coldest weather last winter * was during January and then It did not attain tbo degree of coldness reached last night in fact , it wan probably the coldest night in several years and may have broken the record for this early in the winter. At Omaha It was 12 below /.oro yes terday , the lowest point reached in that city for two years. The btutlon there recorded a temperature of 20 below , February 11 , 1800 , which was a record breaker , nnd binco 1800 the coldest December - comber day was in 1802 , when the mer cury went to 14 below on the 2lth. ( The temperature during the past 30 hours has raised merry Ned with things freoK > iblo that were exposed to any con siderable extent and the plumbers have boon kept especially busy thawing out pipes , stopping luiikH and making other necessary repairs.

Our < > ( tlic Ancient Sovoii Wonder * of the World. The ancients .succeeded In mnklng that alloy of copper which Is known us bronze. Among the .seven wonders of the world wua the famous Htatue , whol ly inndo of .bronze , historically known IIH the colossus of Rhodes. It rcpn1- Hcnted Pluuhus , rthe national deity of the IlhodliuiH. It wns begun by Chares n pupil of Lyslppus , the sculptor , nnd WIIB completed by Laches 288 B. C. The popular belief Is that It stood astride the harbor of Rhodes , that It was 105 feet high nnd that ships could easily sail between Its legs. Plltiy said that few men could clasp its thumb. It was cast on metal plates , afterward Joined together , nutl this process occupied twelve years. In the Interior was n spiral stalrciise reachIng - Ing Into Its head , and In a great mirror auapuuded to Its neck were reflected the const of Syria and the ships sailing to Ecypt. After It had stood for alxty-four year * this colossus vraa overthrown by an earthquake , and Its remains lay on too ahore for 023 yearo that la , until A. D. 072 when they wore aold by the Saracens to a Hebrew dealer. The original coat waa 300 talents say , ? C- 000.000 and It is not too much to say that a similar image might be con- utructcd now In one-fourth of the time and at one-third of the original cost. Rhodes , by the wny. must have had colossus on the brain , for Pliny relates that the port wns adorned with 1,000 colossal statues of the sun. Meu'i Ilntboxe * . "It might qcom , " said a trunk and bng manufacturer , "that a man's bat- box wns Just a hatbox ; but , as a mat ter of fact , men's Imtboies arc made In very considerable variety.

A QUESTION OF TEETH , Did the Immnrtnl Oeorice Wcnr Ar- tlflclnl or Natural Onmf "George Washington' * fnlao teeth , which were supposed to have been made of Ivory , are giving a certain class of frenk historians about as much trouble ns they must have given the venerable patriot who wore them , " nnld one of the professors of the Bnillhrtonlau Institution to n reporter recently. "Many times n year for several years this Institution has been celled upon to produce these mysterious teeth for the Inspection of persons who Insist that they arc here. "Our matter of fnct answer to these Inquiries that Washington had no false teeth , or at least if he did , that they are not In the possession of the mu seum , seems only to stimulate the In quiring mind to protest our statement. They proceed to give us authentic ac counts of these teeth and always con clude with expressing the belief that they must bo In the museum some where. "Where or how the Idea that Wash ington had fnlse teeth originated Is an unsolved mystery. That It Is firmly be lieved by ninny Is certnlnly n fnct. There seems to bo no authentic record of the Father of Ills Country possess ing Ivory teeth , and by a study of the bust we have of him , which was mini" but n few years before his death , there Is no Indication of an Indentation alon- the line of the gums such ns can be notlcpd In persons who have had their teeth drawn , even though they wear artificial ones. However , we will coiiJ tlntie to answer the same question In the same wny probably many times In the future , " According to some biographers Washington lost his teeth during his service ns commander In chief of the Continental army nnd had n set of Ivory ones made. These teeth , It Is nlso stated , gave him much trouble because - cause they did not fit. Washington Star. RAILWAY RUMBLES. Ireland claims the honor of the first electric railway In the United King dom. It Is said that the cheapest railway fares In the world are to be found tit Hungary. Denmark has a government railroad system of 1,107 miles nnd OL'o miles of private railroads. The Servian , Roumnnlnn nnd Bulga rian railroads are owned exclusively by the respective governments. Travelers n Prussian railways whose baggage , through no fault of their own , fnlls to arrive with them can now hnvo It sent on request free to their houses. The difficulty of railway construction In some pnrts of Africa Is Illustrated by the fnct that on the Freetown-Mat- tru line , In Sierra Leone , cloven steel bridges had to be built In a distance of only thirty kilometers. A representative of the Pnrls Temps has been examining railway stations In Germany , and be declares that those of Dresden , Cologne , Hanover , Frankfort , Bremen , etc. , are far superior to any of the French except the Parisian. Pnylnir n Creditor. Like many another famous man both before his time and since , Talleyrand exhibited , at least In early life , a great reluctance to settling with his credit ors. When he was appQlnted bishop of Aiitnn by Louis XVI. , ho considered n fine new coach to be necessary to the proper maintenance of the dignity of that office. Accordingly a conch wns ordered and delivered , but not paid for. Some time after , as the newly appoint ed bishop was about to enter his conch , be noticed a strange man standing near who bowed continually until the conch was driven away. This occurred for several days until at length Talley rand , addressing the stranger , said : "Well , my good mnn , who nre you ? " "I am your coachmaker , my lord , " replied the stranger. "Ah , " said Talleyrand , "you are my coachmaker ! And what do you want , my coachmaker ? " "I want to be paid , my lord. " "Ah , you are my coachmaker , and you want to be paid ? You shall be" paid , my coachmaker. " "Hut when , my lord ? " "Hum , " said Talleyrand , settling hlrnfielf comfortably among the cush ions of his new coach and eying IIH ! coachmaker severely , "you are very Inquisitive ! " Salad Eating Good Seme , Even men are progressing gastronom- Icolly. Scientific dietetics has at last revealed to us the fact thai ; the woman who cats salad on a hot day In July. August or September Is displaying nound gastronomic sense , says What to Kat. The long haired dreamer In the restaurant may have been nineteen dif ferent kinds of a fool upon every other proposition In life , but ho knew what to cat on a hot day. The human ani mal needs grass or Us equivalent In summer. With their oil the salads sup ply everything a man physically needs In hot weather. All the civilized races of the world are salad eaters , but Amer icans cat less than do any other people. It Is not a sign of mental decay or mor al degeneracy for a man to cat salad ; it is gastronomic sense. Harper * Ferry. Harpers Ferry was named after Robert Harper , an architect and mill builder , born In 1703 In the town of Oxford , England. He came to Amer ica In 1730 with his brother Joseph and located In Philadelphia , where for a time he prospered but , falling later , concluded to Join the Friends of Lou- doun county , Va. En route to his ncv home he came upon the gup In the Blue Ridge mountains , wbero ho made bla home. Drain Food Nonsense. Auothtr ridiculous food fad has boon branded by the most competent of authorities. They have dispelled the Hilly notion that ono kind of food ifl needed for brain , another for muscles , and still another for bouoa.
