EFFECT OF COLD WEATHER ON MARKETS
Omlr reople with Millionaire Pann
Caa Afford to Invent la Freak
Coantrr Produce at Pres
ent Figures.
Thirty-five cents wholesale!
This Is not diamonds or even hard coal.
It la the present day price of 'a doxen of
beat grade domestic eggs.
There Is no duy to make the egg the
exclusive diet of the wealthy except the
duty of the hen, which Is being shirked
this cold weather.
The supply of eggs of every sort and
variety In Omaha Is almost exhausted. The
price, however. If the produce men may be
believed, wtll go little If any higher. It
can't. With the egg now costing the grocer
practically S cents each, there are only a
score or so people In town who have the
ready money to Invest In a whole dozen at
any one time. For this reason, when eggs
reach the price they are now bringing, the
markot for them suffers a sudden frost.
A few establishments must have them for
the eggnog and the Jaded palate, but they
are few, so that fifty cases of eggs brought
Into the city today would be hard to sell
at the present price. This Is the reason
none are being brought In by the produce
men. They say a sharp drop In the market
will be necessary before the egg eaters re
cover from the chill which has blighted
their enthusiasm. When . people are de
prived of the egg for a certain number of
daya the habit Is forgotten and even when
the egg Is again obtainable It takes some
days to create a desire again among those
who have learned In the mean time to sub
sist on other allumlnolds.
Other Effects of Cold Weather.
The cold weathei has not alone stopped
the local wlr.ter crop of eggs, but It has
stopped the farmer from driving nine miles
to market with those he has. 80 fresh eggs
are In demand by Omaha dealers, but are
hardly to be had because there are almost
none In town. Adding to the desolation. Is
the fact that the entire clan of egg pack
ers started In the winter with less than
their usual stores. Eggs were compara
tively high In the fall, so the produce men
feared to get loaded up with the point
lace diet, so they only put away about half
the customary pack. The South Omaha
houses did the came thing. Now packed
eggs are very scarce. There are plenty of
packed eggs In the east, but It will not
pay to bring them In because they will not
be bought. The produce men seem to think
the price will go no higher with continued
cold weather. The. figure reached this
point for a few days last February.
Chicken meat la dear It costa as much
anyway as venison. The wholesale buying
price Is now 10 cents, whereas the usual
winter price la 8 or 9 cents. The cold
weather, which prevents the farmers from
coming out. Is the excuse. Turkeys, too,
are expensive, being 16 cents a pound with
the produce jobbers.
If anyone should come here and offer or
dinary Port Arthur prices for cream, It Is
there that he would get the laugh. The
creameries are paying 28 cents apound for
cream at the stations. This Is about the
highest price In the memory of man.
This Is why butter la so scarce and hard
to buy in the country. The farmers can't
afford to make it when they can sell their
cream. Good country butter when It finds
I Its way Into the city at all la sold by the
; arroeera and others at 80 cents. Process but
ter is now doing business at 26 centa and
beat creamery atock at 32 cents. Thla ought
to help to clear the mortgage from the
farm.
ENGGASS WANTS THE RECORD
Chleaa-o Ma n Anxlons to Learn About
Ilia Wife's Former Marriages
and Divorces.
Albert Bnggaas of 1M South HalRtead
street, Chicago, writes to County Judge
Vlnaonhaler to say that he married a
woman about aeven years ago and now un
derstands that she has three or four other
husbands living from whom ahe haa not
been divorced. He asks for Information in
order that he may get a divorce from her.
In his letter he mentions one "Alexander
C" as having been married to a Miss Jennie
Williams in Douglas county some years
ago.
Examination of the records of the county
court shows that a Miss Jennie Williams
was married to Alexander Cattain on April
16, 1887, by Judge McCulloch. The witnesses
were Llzsie and Frank MInahan. The
groom waa a resident of Omaha, 22 years
old, while the bride waa a Wisconsin girl,
whose age la given as 18. Her mother ap
peared In court and gave her consent. The
bride's father waa dead, according to the
record. Mr. Enggass will be informed of
these facta, but no one here knowa as to
whether or not the pair married by Judge
McCulloch were ever divorced or not.

are to Glass.
An exciting runaway occurred on Doug
las street when a team of horses owned by
the Nebraska Telephone company and in
charge of A. D. Cooper brtke away at
Fourteenth and tore along the afreet until
they reached the Fry shoe store, where
they wrought destruction to the extent of
$200. The animals sustained numerous cuts
and bruises, while Driver Cooper escaped
without Injury.
When the horses reached Sixteenth street
In their wild race west on Douglas they
swerved to the right and into the large
circular plate glass shoe case, which was
shattered. Several other panes of glass
in front of the store were broken, while

animals.
In their efforts to extrloate themselves
from the entrance of the shoe store Into
which they plunged, the horses scattered
blood In every direction. The blood quickly
froze to the shoes, sidewalk and front of
the store, and with the broken .glass and
other evidences of violence, the acene sug

The horses have been attended by a vet
