Seautlful Orunae-Growlna Weather

North and West.
Four inches of snow lay upon the ground
When Omaha awoke Monday morning. It
Was by all odds the deepest snow of the
Mason. By noon the precipitation bad In
creased by another half Inch. And then
the fall ceased. A more picturesque sight
could scarcely be Imagined than that which
greeted the people of this city as they
braced tho fresh breeze of the morning;
the ground, under Its thick coat of im
maculate white, and the flakes falling In
thickest shower, made a pretty picture.
The wind had subsided arid the tempera
ture had dropped slightly, so the work of
art could be more appreciated than It
might have been the previous night. It was
below soro at 1 a. m. and 1 above at
I p. m.
Street cars were not running very regu
larly early in the day, owing to the snow,
and ' they had to proceed with unusua.
Mutlon, but ao far a reported no serlout
accidents transpired. Nor do the railroads
' seem to have suffered as much incoitven- !
lence as they frequently do under such cir
cumstances. Telegraph and telephone wires
also have been fortunate. '
Snow Is general over Nebraska and
Kansas. Railroad reports show it Is cold
to North Platte and warmer at Denver
and Cheyenne and 3 below at Kansas City.

the trains from the west were quite late,

Blockade la the North. ,
Because of the blockade on the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific all the

been coming over the Union Pacific via
the Oregon Short Line for the last three
days. A telegram was received Monday
saying the blockade had been broken and
the malls would be sent through via the
northern routes after today.
The Burlington road has arranged to
liandle the immense volume of freight
which ordinarily would go west over the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
routes through this territory. Tho con
gested freight at Minneapolis and 8t. Paul
will be brought via Sioux City and taken
west via the Billings route, and all heavy
freights for the west billed through Min

Chicago and handled direct from Chicago
to BllUngs over the Burlington.
Although the Billings lino of the Burling

REGULATING JHE DRUGGISTS
Zlmman Haa New Ordinance Got
erning; Sale of Liquor hy
Them. .
Councilman Zlmman Jias had prepared
an ordinunce to cover the sale of milt,
vinous and spirituous liquors by 'druggists.
This ordinance is to succeed a more drastic
measure recently introduced at the request
of W. J. Broatch, but considered too harsh
by the council general committee.
The new ordinance prohibits druggists
from displaying or advertising liquors or
allowing them to be used on the premises.
It 'also confines the sale' to medicinal and
mechanical purposes and requires that pat
rons Blgn a book In the presence 'of the
druggist who shall file with tho Board of
Fire and Police commissioners monthly
statements of such sales. " ,
A penalty is provided for , the violation
of -the ordinance and 'makes the offending
druggist liable to revocation bf his "pertntt.
The Broatch ordinance required "that a
physician's preuerlptlon but required In all
cases of sale of liquors try druggists and
contained other features which the council
did not deem wise. ' -
Tho new ordinance probably will be In
troduced this evening.
