A queer looking oullil , con. isling of
two immense . nowplows , each pushed hy
two powerful engines ami n doubleheader -
header pis ' 'i > ger train , pulled in from
the cast over the Hurliiigtou Tuesday
morning nboiit It o'clock. The engine *
iiinl cars wore covered with snow , and
bore a .strong resemblance to the myth
leal Irnin upon which thn still morn myth
ical Santa Clans of modern tiini's is sup
posed to ride. When the cars came to it
mill at thu depot IDo men , women and
children stepped oil' and stretched theit
criniiel ; | ( limbs in a walk about thu plat
form. Mo t of them were from points
east of the Missouri , and bonml to
the far west. Thorn was no snow to
speak of east of Omaha , ami they left
Inert * Monday morning on time. Jn thu
parly uaiAl ISeaph. of this oily , whoso
description of the ride from Omaha west
is as good and accurate as any Unit can
bo had. He gays that with thu aid of Iho
two plows the track was cleared for the
( rain so that it reached ( Jreonwood ,
eighteen null's cast of Lincoln , about ; )
o'clock Moinluy afternoon , .seven hours
out from Omaha. Near the Colcman
farm , jut west of ( reenwood , Ihe limt
plow ran Into a drift abonf. eight feet
ilei'p and 1 , . " > GO fcot long and got .stuck.
The M'eond plow pulled it out , and
miming back halt a mile the
engineer- the four locomotives pulled
the throttles wide open , and sent the
mighty mass of iron into the snow
bank at full speed. The drift yielded a
little , but thu plows could not foreo their
way through , and after a number ot inef
fectual ell'orls , the two engines from the
tram svcre coupled on , and the six ma
chines > et to "hill-king" Iho drift. The
train in the meantime was lying at
( Jreenwood where I ho passengers amused
themselves by playing soven-up. holding
mock trials , singing songs , ami making
occasional raids oil the larders of the
bucolic denizens which produced nothing
more tempting than fro/on bologna
and heavy bread. Thus the afternoon
was passed , and as night drew on. and
the impossibility of getting through the
drift before morning was icali/.cd. the
snow-bound travelers disposed themselves -
selves as best they could to while away
the wcarv hours by paying uourt to Mor
pheus. Fortunately the temperature was
moderate , and there was no suffering.
Daylight came , and with it the death of
the .storm winds. Mou shoveled away
with a will , the engines wore kept "buck
ing" the drift , and finally a road was
broken through and the train came on to
Lincoln , reaching hero just twenty-four
hours late , and iwenty--evun after leav
ing Omaha.

City At turn or Council's Honorl Sub
mitted Tuesday N
The following is the t > xt of the report
of City Attorney Council on the gajques
lion , which was submitted to Ihe counei' '
Tuesday. It will be found very inter
reading by tlin ninny whe arc suf
fering from the pxlortionate charges o
the gas company :
He says : As a result Qf ni3inveslig.i
ton ! I am satislied that the city is poi
. ( . . ( .i ) nf ample ] iower to iiroteet INelf as
well as private cou-umers against exor
bitaut or unrea < oniblo : chargas on tin
part of the gts : company.
To ccure such protection I would sup
ge t the passage of an ordinance fixing
the price of gis : to be charged by the gas
tompanv. Such price should be fair ami
taking into account the kini
of ga- < furnished , as well as the cost o
manufacturing and furnishing the same. '
Mr. Council then quotes the ordinanci
which gives this power to the city. Tin
section is : "The mayor ami council shall
as the iisi * of ga . and the rent of gas me
ters within the cily. "
He says further , "Jn my opinion tlu
j present Gas company holds whatevei
; rights } ' or privileges it ulav possess , sub
ject to this- provision , and subject to the
power of the mayor and council , by or
dinanee , to make all reasonable regula
tions concerniutr the .sale or USD of gai-
or the rent of gas meters.
Tlie origiuaPaot of legislature , iucor
poratiug the Omaha ( jas company , ap
liave power to regulate the rate as wel1
proved February Si , JSlid , jvrovidei
tlmt said company should noi
under penally of forfeiture , o :
the charter , charge any higher .rates foi
gas than should be prescribed by onji
nances or resolutions of the city council
Tills , so fir ; as I know , is the only char
lor over granted to a gas company in this
cily , so that if any rights are elaimei
uniler the charter iy tin * ure-ent gu.scom
pany , such claim should have lo bo sub
ject to the provisions referred to.
The company lirst commencing opera
lions iu tliis city was organi/cif as the
Omaha Gas Manufacturing companyam !
probably claims whatever right.it innj . . . ,
under ordinance No. iyi ) , pas-cd January
I. ' ' . ' . 1N08.
It is wilh this company that the cily
entered into a contract September , 1SSI ,
for furnishing gas for public buildings
and lighting the .street lamps for thu term
I IV i--t 1 V. 1 I | 1I1I1 JV7L t 4U l1 111
of live years.
The eompjinyjiow opriating the mis
works and furnishing gas to the cily and
private consumers is the United Gas Liu-
pioycinent company
While I have no delimit * , knowledge
concerning the identity ot this new com
pany , 1 suppose it to do the same com
pany ( o winch thu right to construcl or
acquire gas works was granted by the
mayor and council , Jaittiaiy ' ; Jd , 1HSII ,
under ordiiiiiiice No. . "Kit. 15y the terms
of ordinance No. filll the United Gas Im
provement ' ! ' company , in order lo obtain
the privileges by void ordinances grant
ed , was required within sixty days from
the approval thereof , to lilo with the
mayor a written acceptance of its terms
ami ' eonditjons.
As t am informed this v/as never done ,
so that no rights or privileges can now
lit acquired by any gas company under
the ordinance.
The new company probably does not
claim any rights or privileges under this
ordinance , but , as L am informed , claims
to bo the suei.-e.ssor of the Oniahn Gas
M 'acturing company , and to be pos-
of all the rights of said Omaha
Gas Manufacturing company.
So fir : as the contract ot the cily with
the Omaha Gas Manufacturing company
is concerned , no rights whatever can b'u
acquired by thn new company without
the eon.sent'of the city , as the contract
expre-sl. ) " provides that il can bo as-igned
only willt the consent of the city council.
The prices at which the Gas Improve
iiieiit company propo.-od to furnish the
gas now being manufactured and known
as "water gas , " as .shown by said ordi
nance 0(11 ( , are. as follows :
To private consumers for pii , " 0-eawllo
per l.OOJ feet , not to uveced . 3 2 00
To iirlviilu consumers for ( 'iis , 'J.Vcaiidlo

Under the contract with the Omaha
Gas Manuft'otiiring company the prices
are as follows :
a
As to the allowance of the bill , to which
the report of the committee relates , J
would recommend that it be allowed on
ly lo the extent that it is fair and reason
able.
In my opinion the charges for street
lumps , as well as tor gas furnished public by
buildings- , are excessive , and all should
be reduced. I think a fair basis , for thn
present , is that fnriiNhod by the compa
ny itself , and to be found in ordinance
JSo. .V.l.
For thn tntiiro consideration of the
mayor and council , I call attention to a
provision in ordinance Xo. iJO : , which
gives lo the eily , at any time after Janu ou
ary , isyl ; , thu right to purchase thugus
works and improvements belonging
therein , sit the cost thereof with interest
a reasonable rate , not exceeding tea
per cent , etc.
I do not consider that the cily is under for
any obligation to recognize Iho present
gas company , and before doing so or
graining further rights or privileges , the
rights of Iho city and its citixons should
carefully guarded and protected , not of
only wilh reference to tlio present , but
with reference to Iho fiilnro and the im
mense power tlmt may ho centered in anew Ihe
now apparently harmless compact.

the cream til right temperature ( iiie > sing -
ing ill il is a good wav In get liivd The
cream .should be put into a warm room
several hours before churning. When
the weather is fiveningand it isery cold
it must be placed by the stove ami made
'
warmer than Hie 'temperature of an or
dinary room , lu hot wwitJi'-r , of coiir.-o ,
it mii-t be cooled. The
cream may be warmed by put
ting hot water into the churn. It
.should show a temperature of about ( il
degrees a < near this us po ible. It is
so easy ' with u twenty-live cent thermom
eter t'n know Ihr * temperature of the
cream , I lint it seems ipieer everybody
don't have out * . When the cream is lee
warm tlu1 butler will come , but it will be
soft and white , and , of course , poor. Il
should be cooled when this is the ease , as
soon us it is known to be too warm , wilh
ice or cold w.uler. If it is too cold , tin *
cream will foam and swell , and it will
not come. It should be warmed as soon
as Ihis condition is found out. When the
cream 1 ( gels very thick after churning a
while and doe not churn well , it should
have si little warm water poured into the
churn.
When Ihe cream is very thick there is
so much butter thai it can not lloat , and
more liquid is rcipilred lo gel the butler
into Miape. Ctencrally then * is enough.
There is no ( rouble of this kind when
creameries are used , but when the cream
is raised in pans , and it is thick and
leathery , it is apt lo do so. Some people
rim in a lot of sour milk lo make moiv
buttermilk and lloat the butler , but t
don't believe iu sour milk in
cream. It will get rancid if the
cream is kept any time. It is bet-
lei-when the cream is lee thick to add
a little warm or cold Wilier , as the case
maybe. 1 used to u e a dash churn , but
now I have a Stoddard barrel churn , and
it f-aves a heap of work and make * the
handling of Ihe butter so much easier. It
takes longer , if CMM-J thing is all ri''ht , to
get the butter from sweet cream than
Miur. Don't mix sweet anil sour cream
together just before churning , or the
sweet cream will pass oil' iu tlie butter
milk and be loit. Miil ahead and stir
il well.
Keeping tin : Cows Clean ,
fit-eat care should be taken in bedding
in winter time , and iu cleaning Ihe
. ' tables. Unless c.xlra pains are taken
foul-smelling stables will be the result ;
consequently the milk will be morn or
less uHectcd. I am well salislicd thai
lillhy stables and lillhy habits of milking
are the chief causes ol so much poor but
ter being made in winter and in spring. J
am well aware that butter made in winter
lacks tlavor and color , but , with proper
care il can be made sweet and clean.
Very much depends upon this food the
cow's eat ; in order to have color , corn
meal with beans and ground oats fed
liberally , and a little oil wiciil added , is
aboul as near perfect rations as can be
given ni winter , with plenty of good ,
bright timothy hay and a mixture of
clover. It is quite a common sight to sec
iu this part ol the country cows in winter
time witli their hips loaded down with
immure , their bags dillo , al o their backs
covered with hay-seed and du t. The

Fatal Corn I'
The herd of a western pork-grower (

observation lead him In believe that
tcoding oiit- > , bran , pumpkins in their
season , and mangolds instead ol corn ,
providing dry , dean , warm ne.its ,
changing the hitler frequently , this dread
disease can be averted.
Mr. 15.F. Johnson cites , in Our Country
Home , the. opinion of intelligent and ex
perienced larincrs and breeders as indi-
eating that "tho so-called hog cholera" i.s
clearly traceable to prolonged and ex
cessive - , , is the
? corn-feeding as scurvy re-
of a merely e.xciusiive and protracted II
of sidled incuts. "The fat , corn-fed
