The city jail yesterday had it larger number of boarders than usual lately. The unlucky number , thirteen , took their dinner in the jail but thev did not .sit down to a duo spread ; they were satisfied with one course anil the whole of that served on tin plates. There wax a report around yesterday Ihal early yesterday morning a colored man had been .shot and killed. Heforo Iho day was out the report became quite general but it no doubt arose from the .shooting of Hums by Woodburn lale Christmas night. The mercury wa down in the mouth yesterday , registering Irom 8 to 1(1 ( de grees below all day. Snow fell from imrly morn until late at night. It is sel dom that one sees snowfall here when the temperature is so low , and the old btittlors declare they never saw the like before.

Kennedy , of Dus Moines , has a son , Kobnrt , about nine years old , who is one of ihc brightest and best ctu- drills in the deaf and dumb school here. Hi ; scut to the institution hero to huvo Iho boy sent home tor Christina * , and the family prepared for that day a royal feabt to which they invrled a large num ber of frimulb. A buy bj HID name of Douglas , whose parent ) Jive in De Solo , i.s a boon companion ot Captain Kennedy' * boy , and the parents had arranged to huvo both boys come home at the same lime. The captain inudu arrange ments with the conductor on the Hook Ihland , who would leave Council lilulls on the 24th , to bring the boy , and wrote to the Miponntcndcnt to have him at the train. When Friday afternoon came the boy was not on the train , and the conductor reported ho hud not M-'cn him. In his stcau Iho captain received a letter from the superintendent otfUing that lie would put the boy on the train on .Thursday. The captain and luuil : } were at a losto explain the mys tery , or content themselves with any theory , but still hoped Robert would bo .sent on the Saturday tiialn. The Christ mas dinner was kept waiting , with the guests all trathered , until the arrival of the afternoon train Saturday , when the carriage sent to Iho trainreturnod empty. The family was so broken down over the sad disappearance of the boy , and the sorrowful mystery as to what had be come of him , that they had anything but a merry Christmas. Inquiry at the tnstiuilion hero led to the ruvelution that in accordance with the request ot the parents , the superin tendent had the boy taken to the depot to go liomo. The parents sent no money or ticket , nnu the boy had no money with which to pay Hie transportation. From thr letter received from the parents it ap peared that probably the conductor had been given llie money , or other arrange ments made with him , bill Ihc conductor did not understand it this way , and would not take the boy without a ticket , so Robert was brought back to the Institu tion , there to . * pend his Christmas , safely and happily. The anxiety of the parents was great , anil oven after the relief com ing from hearing that the boy is uf , the disappointment Is great at not having him nt home for the Christmas doing * . Test mi : oil. There has been a good deal of diffi culty in enforcing the oil inspection law in this stale. Among the causes of dissatisfaction - satisfaction now proves to be the dis crepancy in thermometers u < ed. L. F. Andrews , the assistant secretary of the board of health , in a Christmas talk on the subject of thermometer's , of wl-ich he has made quite a study , says in this con- neelioir. "A a rule , the thermometers sold at the stores are practically worthless , they are only approNlmately correct most of them not even that. Some of them may be nearly correct at low point- , but at 100 deg. and nhovi , be 15 to 20 degin error. Another thing , the mercury by constant expansion and contraction in a thermometer tube like an claMic rubber band by repeated Wretch loses its strength o to pealc , and the /.ero point , which is the starting point of a thermom eter , change * , or is displaced as to the scale. This variableness in thermometers became a souico of trouble very soon after the law pnnmlng for HID inspection of pulrolcum went into effect. All the apparatus for the testing of oil is furnished by the "tale board of health that is , it must first be approved by the board. At lir-t inspectors were supplied with tlio bct thermometers thai could be got Irom an extensive importing houe in .New York. It wa soon discovered , for instance , that live barrels of oil drawn from a car tank , and sent to a northern point would be approved by an inspector , at , we will say , 105 degrees ( the standard thermometer being 101) ) degrees. ) Another five barrels from the same tank sent south would be rejected bv another inspector ul 0(1 ( degrees. Another fi\e barrels sent west would be approved by another inspector specter at HO degree" . Now , there is a difference of fourteen degrees in three tests of the same oil. You can readily apprehend the result of such an inspec tion. Incompcteiicy and even dishonesty were charged to the inspectors and deal ers became dissatisfied.

On Saturday afternoon about o'clock quite an excitement occurred on Plainer slrcet. A strange accident occurred lo Mr. 11.
