The mctonrolojjicul reporter of TIIK llr.K Mcondod the eighty-six weary atopB of the ( tovorniuont building to the signal ollico Una morning , to hold clofui coiiiiiutnion with the unruly clo- munla nbout. There hung atiRpondud in the shultorod north window four sensUm- little instruments , which told tlio tnlo of the last old wave. Monday was the coldest day of all , the highest ( oiupurnturo boinn only ! ! ' , the loweat I . The prevailing north gale nddod greatly to the RO verity of the woathor. Voatorday tuorning , before dawn , the minimum mink down to r.oro , but it crept up leiauroly again , and ia new on the highroad to moderation , judging from the higher tomporatiiro pruvailinp in the wott and northwest. Thus reassured , the bold reporter ventured rtckleaaly forth in hia ro- auarchea into the domain of perpetual frost , first to the npot where the bravo follows of the ill-fated Jeannette Ho waiting for succor and relief. "la it true , " ho naked of the obser ver , "that the temperature in that re gion falls to liO ° below zero , an the papers assert/ / ' ' "Very likely it does , " answered the officer. "Tho temperature has boon known to full to 7 > ° below zero in Siberia. " TIIK llr.K man shivered in wardly.

" "Isn't it curiotta , " asked the repor ter , "that so little anew bus fallen this winter , ao larl" "Not at all , " aiiBwered the officer. "This is not a great snow country. I don't think that we average moro than ono foot of snow per winter here. Now England ia tlio country for heavy snows. Maine beats Nebraska as seven to ono ; Vermont and Now Hampshire as nix to ono , and Central MiiBBnchuBotts AS four to ono.

COBHALLBD THE TEAM. A Seizure of u Pair of HorneH Whlcl Rocnllu n Curious Caao. Tuesday about noon OoiintnliI Kdgerton ajiiod u nuui and a tnun near the corner of Douglas and teenth etroutH , which had comiidoiii hlu attraction for him. Ilouoixud tin horsoH , and when the man made i vigorous protuat , took him in clmrg nlao. The Hoiiuiro of the team wa made on the utrength of a hill of Halo which wan given by the pos nor of the horses , William Duncan , to an attorney o Council Itlullk named Flickurger am Wutkins it Williaina , a legal linn ii Olonwood , Iu. , about a year ago , The circuiiiatanucH under which th bill of Hale waa given were peculia and in connection with the prcsen caau are not without interest. Tin owner , or moro properly poaneaHor o the team , formerly lived in Iowa where ho waB residing , with a iiumer ous family , upon property belongin to hia mother. Ono day the old lad. turned up misaingand Duncan and hia family almost immediately Htartud out with two ti'unm and two wagons , The family occupied ono of tlio vehiclefl , while in the other wagon waa iiiyBturioualy coveted ob ject. Finally , near ( ilumvood , the Hucond wagon waa lighteia-d of ita load , and the fumily went on into the interior part of Iowa. A day w BU after thu Duncan fain , ily had gone , Home f aimers diBcovercd ii newly made grave , which their curi osity incited them to dig up , and they were horrified to dinoover tlio par tially decomposed body of tin tigcd woman. The connection of the re- nirina with the two wagons waa estab lished in suspicion , and Duncan wan followed up nnd arrested. The body of tlio old woman proved to ho that of Duncan's mother , whom it was thought ho had put out of the way ; . Duncan was hold and indicted for inuu'or , thu attorneys above named being retained for the defence. The trial" was an interesting omTho defence did not attempt to deny that the body was that of Duncan's mother , but elaimed that ahedied from natural cauna , and thataho wascarriedaround by him for live days because ho had no miitahlo place in which to bury her. After Ruvor.il hours deliberation the jury returned n verdict of not guilty , ami Duncan uns discltnrged. Afte : the trial Duncan , not having any money , made 11 bill of sale of his Umiimuul wagons to hia attorneys , which was to take ell'cct in six months. When the date for payment , however , arrived , Duncan had disappeared and the team had gone with hint. Ho was supposed to have crossed to No- braaka , but hia exact whereabouts w.re unknown until Tuesday , when Countable Kdgerton , who had known of the matter and been authorized to look for him , naw him on Douglas street and made thu seizure referred to , Duncan is now living in a dug-out nbout a mile north of the city. Hia family has contin ued to increase and ho ia now the father of eight or nine promising youngsters. In consequence of this condition of a f Fairs he was allowed to go at liberty , but ho will probably bo obliged to make some definite arranga- inentM concerning the bill of sale be fore ho gota hia horsea back.
