SIrx. MKflivIINkM DIIIIUIUCM for the
Killing of Her HuNliaiiil.
Judge Green with a jury spent the day In
the district court hearing the evidence In. a
damtigo suit brought by i.Mra. Etta Mitchell ,
administratrix of the estate of John Mitchell ,
a switchman who was killed In the yards of
tub Northwestern railway company In this
city. The widow files two claims against
the railway company. The flrst Is for
$10,000 , brought In the name of 'the ' estate
and as administratrix , and the other is for
$2ROO for personal damage for the loss of
the ccnjpanilonshlp of her husband. 'Mitchell '
was one of the oldest and best known switch
men In the city , and had been in the employ
ot the railway company for many years. On
July 28 , 1SOG , ho 'was killed by being drown
I under the wheels while attempting to make
a coupling. One arm and ono leg were
crushed , and ho died from the shock. The
plaintiff contends that the accident was duo
to the fact that the track had not been properly -
orly lilted up , and that < there was a space
between the rail and the surface of the
earth , nnd that the unfortunate man's fet
slipped Into this opening nnd beoam wedged
BO that It wus Impossible to escape from be
tween the cans after the coupling had been
made. Photographs wcro Introduced which
were allege ! to have been taken within an
Lour otter the accident to show the condition
of the ground and the track. A motion was
made by the attorneys for the railway to
take the case from the jury and return a
verdict for the defendant. This motion will
to argued this morning.

The enow that poured down from the leaden
cklca for twenty-four hours was one of the
heaviest falls that has occurred In this vicin
ity for several years. People who were
obliged to bo out with teams found traveling
through the depths of the dry snow anything
but easy or pleasant. The street car com
pany had a stiff fight all day to keep Us llnea
open and found It necessary to call Into
requisition all ot the means at Its disposal
to fight the snow. The power sweepers were
operated all of Thursday night In the effort
to keep the tracks clear. This effort was
moderately successful until toward the mid
dle of yesterday , when the Increasing vol
umes of snow formed accumulations that
were lee heavy for the sweepers to clear
away. Then the big steel scrapers pulled
by horses were put to work. These cleared
away the bulk of the snow and made It poa-
nlblo for the sweepers to be used effectively.
The brooms ot the largest power sweeper
became so well worn toward the middle of
the afternoon that It became almost useless.
The other cwccper , propelled by four mo
tors , was kept flying along the tracks. At
various points In the city where the build
ings produced whirls that had a tendency to
drift the snow , gangs of shovclere were sot
to work to keep the tracks clear. The cn-
tlro line was kept open all day and the reg
ular trains operated without much delay.
Double motors were placed on the Fifth
avenue line and they were able to buck the
snow with a moderate degree ot success.
Manager Dlmmock and all of the railway
men wcro deeply Interested In the working
of the big cars on the Omaha line. Thciv
waa eoino apprehension ns to their ability
to combat the snow , but they proved to bore
ro well fitted for the work that the main
line was finally the source of the least
anxiety to the company. Stiff steel brooms
were placed before the fenders and they
sent the snow flying from the rails. All of
these trains made their regular trips and at
no tlma wcro very much behind the schedule
time. Such a snow with the old motors
would have almost stopped trafilc.
The railroads have not suffered to any
serious extent. Along the line of the Bur
lington In the western half of the state
heavy banks of snow were encountered and
enough obstruction was found all along the
line to Interfere somewhat with the speed
ot the trains. The fast mall was over an
hour late , mleslng Its schedule time at the
transfer for the first time In many months.
It came In with one of the company's heav
iest engines , which had Its pilot packed sol
idly with snow and Ice. The other Iowa pas
senger trains were from forty minutes to an
hour and a half late.
Something of a scare was occasioned dur
ing the mldd'o ' of the afternoon by the postIng -
Ing of bulletins all over town announcing
the approach of a fearful blizzard , which
was scheduled to reich hero at $ o'clock.
Telephone messages were received from the
South Omaha packers at every meat market
In the city ordering all of their drivers en
gaged In the delivery of meat In the city to
let their orders go and return homo at once.
This Information helped lo heighten the
dread of the coming blizzard and all of the
people whoso bualnesswould permit them
left the streets and hurried to their homes
to make things snug for the coming storm.
Coal dealers were overwhelmed with emer
gency orders and everybody prepared for a
repetition of the great January blizzard ot
ten jears ago. It proved to be a false alarm ,
as the day ended with an almost impercepti
ble brcezs blowing from the northeast.

The calls for charity yesterday were more
than doubled. The homo of Henry DeLong
was the center of the rush for assistance nnd
the Good Samaritan and Ihls wife passed a
busy day. Applications were mostly for
clothing , and the little stock of old garments
that had been collected during the summer
was greatly depicted. Mr. and Mrs. DeLong
yesterday issued an appeal to the charitable
people of the city to hunt among closets and
store rooms for old garments that were no
longer serviceable for the members of the
family , and requested that they
bo sent to the Elseman building
today. The Industrial school meets
there this afternoon and Mr. DeLong
has suggested that the hundred or more little
girls who are enrolled as regular attendants
ot the school can be made messengers to
carry donations of old clothca to the build
ing. '
"Glvo mo what Is dally wasted In Council

Long maxims , and ho Is reiterating this ap
peal at the present time. "Ask your butcher
to law aside the bones he cuts from your
roaet or porterhouse steak and save 'It ' for
me , and dally I will have sufficient material
to nuiko soup eiough for more than 100 hun-
gry men. Save the ends of the bread loaves
and the crusts from the dally meals and
there will bo bread enough to make this soup
dinner complete. Hunt out the old shoes
that are moudlng In your closets or the old
garments for which you liavo no further use ,
and I will make warm feet and bodies that
are toJny suffering from cold. Charity docs
not consist In the amount you give , but in
the effort to give something. No oldi pair of
shcii , hat , coat , cloak , drees or shawl is so
badly worn but some unfortunate will find
It better -than his own. Send mo this stuff
when you can or let mo know where I can
find it nnd one-half of the problem of caring
for the unfortunate Is solved. "

IOWA AT TIIK HMMISITIOX.
Des Molnes Leader : Those who repose
> otty , narrow-minded objections to n crcdltn-
l > lo representation of Iowa at the Transmls-
slsaopl ! Exposition show little pride In IOWA'S
present or appreciation of her future. They
bed ay ft spirit that certainly cannot be com
mended for brcad-mlndcdncss or llbcialtty.
Per oxorrole , wo are told by the Des Molncs
newspaper that wcnts to have nothing more
than a "shack" at the exposition , that It
doubts whether the $130,000 expended at the
World's fair ever brought ten additional per
sons to the state , the Implication being , ot
course , that the World's fair expenditure was
exttnvagant and unprofitable.
The large expenditure of Iowa at Chicago
n 1893 was profitable even though not one
person ratno to the state because ot It , Man
Iocs not live by bread alone. There are In
terests beside directly material ones. Every
great nation or state feels them , The gen
erous prldo that enriches every department
of a state's existence Is a possession as
precious as fertile acres or smoking factory
stacks. This dies unless It has something to
sustain It. It Iowa had not been represented
it Chicago , creditably and befitting the stand-
ng of the slate , In Indirect but nevertheless
loworful ways , all Iowa would have suffered.
At Chicago were gathered the things typical
of American achievement since Columbus first
iresscd his foot on the soil of the new world ,
f whcro the Iowa Columbian building stood
iad been a vacant lot It would have been a
uimlllatlng advertisement that one ot the
states making up the great republic caroJ
neither for past , for present , nor for future ,
and was so atupld and narrow that It regarded
lot general opinion. The effect would have
reacted and would have loosened the bonds of
affection knitting lowans to their glorious
commonwealth. It pays a state , as It dots
an Individual , to put the better toot foremost ,
: o meet her sisters In friendly emulation , to
jo orcsont In the attire ot dross parade when
: ho general roll Is called. So , even though
t be true that not a person came to the state
because of the $130,000 cxocnded , neverthe
less the money was wdll spent. lowans who
jcheld how Iowa had held up her head among
the forty-four came back better lowans and
more determined to push the state forward
In everything that was best , and those who
wcro not there In person took a proper pleas
ure In the same pride-developing fact.
The same roasii3 and more that called for
an adequate representation of Iowa at the
World's fair call for an adtxjuai'o representa
tion of Iowa at the Omaha exposition. It Is
true that It Is not a world's fair , 'but ' It Is u
transmlkslsslppl fair , representative of the
great area with which Iowa's future Is In iU-
solubly asscclated. What the fair laclts In
scope and conteivt it makes up In intent. Per
lew a to have a mere clapboardcd cottage , va-
ccnt and umlccoratod , In its way would too
as sorry a spectacle as would have been pre-
E'Mitcd In 1893 It those who opposed the Co
lumbian appropriation had succeeded. The
other Transmississlppl states will bo there ,
and Iowa cannot afford to confess In their
presence her meanness and parsimony. The
man whj Is so mean as to refuse to pay his
share of the assessment for sprinkling the
streets , declaring that sprinkling the streets
Is a nonsensical extravagance , usually does
not stand well In the community ; every day ,
in front of-his dear , 'the 'watc.r ' Is cut off , nnd
a-3 his neighbors pass and perceive the dry
and dusty spot , they nud e each other and
icmark how stingy an eld curmudgeon is
niank. Per Iowa not 'to ' be represented at
Omaha would provoke the same sort of com
ment , and woulS react to the disadvantage
of the etate.
It should also be remembered that Iowa is
not always to ue merely an agricultural siuiu
with merely Incidental manufactures and
Interstate trade. The coal Is here , ths
caplt.il Is here , the enterprise , we believe , Is
hero to oarry Icwa's name and Iowa's goods
far beyond the state's borders. Far reasons ,
It la not necessary to point out the trade of
the state , except for its agricultural staples ,
must be west of the Missouri river. Ueyond
the state's western boundary Is the natural
market for the manufactured goods lowu has
and wilt have to sell. Our jobbo.s and man-
ufaoturors already have their ager-its auJ
traveling men In this great territory -ami the
movement has only begun. Is it peed busi
ness to affront , by a stupid and Insultli ; ;
neglect these who are our customers and
who are likely in the near future to be our
customers In a still greater degree ? Will it
help the agent of the Iowa manufacturer or
jobber as he seeks to do business in 'Ne
braska to meet the prejudice that would cer
tainly be aroused by what would bo consti
tuted as an Insult to an enterprise In which
Nebraska 'takes ' great interest ? It would be
a shortsighted business policy for Iowa to
say to Nebraska , "We don't care enough
about you to attend ycur big party. " The
Missouri river lr not the western border of
this country by any means. There are many
bridges over the river , and over these 'bridges '
Iowa goods 'Will yet go in great abundance.
Creditable representation at the Tmnsmlssls-
slppl Exposition is certainly ono step toward
making Iowa to Nebraska and 'the further
west what Illinois has been to Iowa.
Cedar Rapids Republican : The question
of Iowa at the Omaha Exposition Is getting
tiresome. There Is little to It. The man
who does not advertise does no business. The
merchant who turns everybody down who
proposes public enterprises soon sells outer
or goes Into the tiands of a receiver. If thu
Omaha Exhibition Is goingto be one worthy
of patronage Iowa must do her part decently
and generously or be classed us a state that
would bo on a par with the nonadvertlsiug
business man , and the village croker.
Avoca Journal : The Council Bluffs Expo
sition association , composed of fifty repre
sentative citizens , was Incorporated In Sep
tember and is doing valuable work to the
end that lowu and Pottawattamle county
shall bo creditably icpresented at the great
Transnilsnsslppi Exposition. The associa
tion Is subdivided into committees of seven
members each on finance , literature , solicita
tion , legislation , exhibits , transportation and
printing. As meat of tlioto who visit t'ho '
tranEmlsslssippl Exposition will come from
the east , they will pass through low j , with
her fertile fields , her matchless orchards ,
vineyards and magnificent cities , and hence
till. ) state will be seen and talked of by the
millions that will throng the great Interna
tional exhibit. T4ie Council Uluffs associa
tion lanot confining Its labors to the city
alone , but has turneJ Its attention to Potta-
wattamlo county and its work Is most com
mendable. Let ua make a grand exhibit of
our products , > is there will be none to surpass
Pottawattamie county , the Eden of Edens ,
fho richest spot In all that fertile expanse
known as the Allasourl valley.
De.s Molnea Capitol : The Omaha Exposi
tion bids fair to bo a live Issue before the
Twenty-seventh general assembly , A reason
able but not an extravigunt EUIU should bo
appropriated for the exposition.
Davenport Republican : The De-s Molnes
Register thinks that If after the state debt
! has been paid there Is any mil-plus left In
the treasury , there will bo no objection to
making an exhibit at Omaha. This Is not
exactly the principle upon which the McKln-
Icy administration proceeds with reference
to the Paris exposition , Of course. If there
was any doubt of the United States being
able to pay Its debt , or of the state of Iowa
being able to piy its debt , then the whole
question would undoubtedly bo viewed from
a different standpoint. Hut BO far as Iowa Is
concerned , Senator Punk has elated the case
well. Ho says , "as a matter of cold figures
this debt IB of little consequence , amounting
to only a few cents per capita , Placed over
afaliiHl the resources of the etate , It Is a
'mere ' bagatelle. As a matter of principle ,
however , It Is of Importance. "
President McKlnlty In the face of a largo
Increase In tlio public debt within the last
two years has sent a special representative
to Paris to secure opaco and make other preFer -

The flrst duty of the legislature which will

If an exhibit Is to be made at Omaha It will
have lo bo determined upon at an early

elate. The opportunity to advance these
Interests , or at least to prevent their InJury -
Jury through n more far-sighted policy on the
part of Illinois and other states , Is one that
Iowa , cannot Ignore and cannot afford to neg

the state nor the chief one , but It Is nn Im
