The deep Bnow and the continued
below zero weather, is having its effect
upon quail as on the 2nd inst a covey
was fonnd two miles northeast of the
city under some trees and on being
flashed, two of them were fonnd to
be frozen and one unable to follow
the flock. There is one flock here that
will probably pull through, there are
about 20 in number and have taken
ap their abode in the field east of Mrs
Annie Zybach, who lives on Fred
Stenger's upland farm. Mrs. Zybach's
son seems to be friendly to the quail
and we believe tliey will protect them
until the ground is again bare when
they can hustle for themselves.

Self control or nerve force is the
great lesson of health and therefore of
life itself. To understand how to re
las is to understand how to strengthen
nerves. Hearty laughter is a source of
relaxation, as are also all high thoughts,
as those of lioiic. beauty, trust or love.
Relaxation is found in diversion. An
occasional outing or holiday is neces
sary. As there are conscious and un
conscious thoughts, there are conscious
and unconscious nerve tensions. Wom
en when shopping do not know the very
tight grip they give their parcels until,
on reaching home, their bauds fall re

to possess the power of discovering
treachery in the shape of alleged
frii-mls. The emerald is exceedingly
popular In courtships and in marriages.
After marriage it is supposcu to unng

play.
SCHUYLER MILL ChauncyAbbott
of the Wells. Abbott 8s Nieman mill
company of Schnyler. was in the city
yesterday visiting the merchants who
handle flonr. The mill at Schuvler
is a great credit to that city, having a
reputation for turning out more corn
meal than any other twenty mills in
the 6tate. The state of Montana is
almost entirely supplied in corn meal
from this one mill, and many car
loads are shipped to European coun
tries. The capacity of the plant is
1800 burets a day. This thrifty com
pany started their business with a
small mill on Snell Creek, three mil?s
north of Schnyler and have, through
their bard labor succeeded in making
the establishment what it now if.
SNOW BLOCKADE. -The rural
mail carriers have been prevented
from going their entire route daring
this last cold weather, H. B. Reed,
carrier for rente three being the only
one who made the entire trip on any
day for over a week, which he accom
plished last Friday. On Monday Mr.
Reed got as far as the Backenhaus
farm north of Shell Creek and many
farmers walked a distance of several
miles to get their mail. On the branch
roads the snow plow has gone to about
the limit of its asefulness ana pas
sengers say there are places going np
on the Norfolk branch which are bank
ed with snow on either side as high as
the engine, and the snow plows used
in this part of the country wonld be
nnabe to throw the snow any higher.
Another big snow wonld certainly be
a calamity for railroads and people
who are compelled to travel- The
Window barn people were called to
carry a physician to Oconee Sundayand
although a sleigh was meed for traas
portation, the hones went into snow
p to their necks in a few places, and

The change in postal arrangements in
New York since "the good old times"
may be seen by the following adver

from Bradford's New York Gazette of
Dec. 0. 1747:
"Cornelius Van Denburgh as Albany
Tost designs to set out for the tirst
time this winter on Thursday next. AH
letters to k by him are desired to be
lent to the iostotlice or to bis house
near the Spring Garden."
During Hudson river navigation tlie
Albany mail was transmitted by sloops,
but in the winter a messenger, as above
mentioned, was required, and it is prob
able that be traveled on foot. The win
ter average of the eastern and southern
mails is given in the same paper ami
same date as follows:
"On Tuesday the Tenth Instant at !)
o'clock in the Forenoon the Boston and
Philadelphia Posts set out from New
York to perform their stages once a
Fort'nite during the Winter months and
are to set out at 9 o'clock Tuesday
morning. Gentlemen and merchants are
desired to bring their letters in time.
X. B. This Gazette will a !.?. come

time."
An Unbroken Spell.
When we have a "spell o' weather,"
and wet weather at that, we have only
to recall the climatic conditions of
Dartmoor, in England, in order to be
thankful for a little.
The moor lias, says a writer in Corn
hill, an eternal procession of clouds,
infinitely varied in form, lighted with a
white radiance or lowering in gloom,
rent, tattered or iilmy, gathering, men
acing, creeping round to swath you in
a mist of rain or dropping one of those
silvery showers lighted with sunshine
from behind.
Of heavier rain there is no lack, and
all one can say of the perennially beau
tiful moor is summed up in the verse
invented by its enemies:
The sortli wind always brings us rain.
The north wind blows it bad; again.
The west wind faiircly means wet weather.
The east wind wet and cold together.
Waiting I'pon 111m Bride.
Two hundred years ago it was a cus
tom very general in England for the
bridegroom to wait upon his bride on
their wedding day. The following ex
tract from John Shebbeare's 'Matri
mony," a book published in the middle
of the eighteenth century, testifies to
this and refers to the popular super
stition about it: "The dinner being
served. Sir Oliver was the gayest man
In the company. The bridegroom and
bride sitting by the side of each other.
the old gentleman observed: Ods-he.irt.
ods-heart: What, dine with the bride
the first day! A line bridegroom; a
fine bridegroom! It was the fashion
when I was married to stand behind
the bride's chair with a napkin and
serve her. Serve her today; she'll serve
you always after. "

Conference on Stewardship and Evangelism-This
was one of macy conferences
held throughout the state under the
direction of Rev. C. J. Pope of Grand
Island, chairman of the Etato committee
on Stewardship. Evangelism was
considered only in so far as Christian
giving is a necessary factor in the
evangelization of the world. The
meetings began in the Baptist church
Wednseday evening. The Lonp& Elk
horn association was represented by
six delegates from three of the churcheB
Rev. Herbert Kyder spoke on "Con
secrated Hands." showing by numer
ous illustrations that succofb is poss
ible only as we consecrate the talents
and means in our immediate postes
sion. Rev. Henry WilliauiF, D. D
of DesMoines.Iowa. tbe Baptist Miss
ionary Onion's able secretary of this
district, delivered a stirring address
on' Giving and Receiving."
The day sessions on Thursday were
given over to discussions led by Dr.
Williams. Revs. Benjamin and Ryder
and Dr. Proper. These discussions
revealed a strong conviction that wo
are not absolute owners but merely
the stewards of what we possess. It
matters not in what profession or
occupation man mav be engaged, the
raw material with which or upon
which he works is from his Creator.
And if all Christians would give their
proper share, the interest due God on
the borrowed means, thero would be
no need of looking hero aud there for
special schemes to cover the church
expenses. Dr. Williams spoke on
"The Sin of Covetousnass. "
The goodly number who turned out
to bear Dr. Cook, the superintendent
of the national committee on steward
ship, were destined to be disappointed.
After the song and prayer service, led
by Rev. Heide of Platte Center, it
was announced that Dr. Cook could
not be at the meeting. He was due
on No. 2 yesterday afternoon, but ow
ing to 6torms the train was 8 hours
late. Rev. D.D. Proper of DesMoines.
Iowa, district secretary of the Home
Mission society, spoke instead on" The
Missionary Spirit."
A good interest in the conference
was shown ty the other churches.
Revs. DeWolf and Halsey led the
piayer services on Thursday, and the
prayer services in the other churches
were omitted in favor of the confer
ence. Mrs. Elizabeth Kummer.

THE COAL QUESTION The cold
weather has been a matter of much
concern to the man who shovels cual
and to the man who pivs tho bills. It
may be of interest to onr readers to
know that the small sizes of hard coal
aro running short in the western stares
as well as in the east. Columbus is
not in any immediate dancer, how
ever, as the coal men seem to have a
reasonable supply on htind. Weaver
&Newmau have bad one car of haul
coal on the road from Chicago for
three weeks. The samo firm has had
as many as sixty rails in one day for
coal and have run as many as five
wagons delivering to customers. At
the IT. p. coal chutes there was only
t5 tons on hand this afternoon, and
the epgines use from 1"0 to '."0 tons
a day.
BRAVE SCHOOL TEACHERS
Among those who deserve credit for
bravery and pluck durieir tlys cold
weather, nono deserves more praise
than the country school teacher who
faced the storm and risked being stuck
in a snow drift on her vvny to her
work. Among the bravest cf the Co
lumbus teachers is Miss Anna Hoehen
who teaches about twentv-two miles
northeast of here in the Boheet neigh
borhood, and Miss Bertha Schupbach
who teaches across the river. Miss
Hoehen engaged a liveryman, John
Egger, to take her out yesterday and
for nearly a half mile, at one place J
in the road they were compiled to
shovel 6now in order to get through.
The road to Bobeet is considered one
of the worst in the county. Miss
Schnpbach tried to reach ber school
Snnday bnt be: horse got stuck in a
snow drift and farmers near by bad
to dig the snow out in order to relieve
them. Seta Braun will not teach nis
school north of town this week, his di
rectors notifying him by telephone
that they thought it unnecessarv to
try to have school.
Tourist Gars Popular
The idea that an inferior cI;ifb of" )io)Io i:itnni.

means necessary for tho travelor to spend a larjr
