COLD WEATuER-l.ast week the weather
prophets predicted the approach of cold wealth.
err and for once, at least, their predictions came
true. The rain and snow of last Saturday were
followed by weather cold enough for mid winter
and colder, perhaps, than any weather expert,
enced during the whole of last winter At
Deadwood, Dakotah, the thermometer, on Sun.
day, was Is degrees below zero. From seven to
ten inches of snow fell in New Hampshire last
Saturday, and at Brussels, Ont, two feet of snow
fell.
AT Dunkale Mills near Bel Air, which is prob.
ably one of the coolest places in the county, the
thermometer marked ten degrees on Monday
morning, four degrees on Tuesday morning and
two degrees on Wednesday morning
The ponds and streams were frozen over, on
Monday morning, and by Tuesday morning the
Canal was locked in ice The Susquehanna
river was so full of ice, on Monday and Tuesday
that Capt. IIohns ferry boat, at Lapidum, could
not cross. The cold snap found many of the
ice ponds without water, but from those which
we're filled clear and solid ice, about four inches
thick, was cut and hauled to ice houses on Wed
nesday. 1t is somewhat remarkable to be filling
ice houses in this locality so early in the season.
There may be plenty of opportunities to get an
unlimited supply Of ice before the buds again
bust in the spring, but prudent people are dis.
posed to take advantage of the first freeze, even
though it may not turn out to be the best.

dream was verified, for on digging down it
was found that the casket had been smashed
to pieces and the body was gone. Mrs. Join
er then insisted that the grave of Miss Smith
should also be re-opened. This was done and
II was found that the casket had been opened
and the body also taken away. On the day
Miss Smith was buried man was seen steal
thily to follow the funeral procession and en-
terthe cemetery. tits supposed that this man
was one of those engaged in robbing the
graves. Another strange circumstance ofthe
case was dream experienced by Mrs. Kate
Smith, also sister-in-law of Mrs. Joiner,
which occurred some nights before Mrs
Joiner had her remarkable dream. Mrs.
Smiths dream also suggested the idea that
the remains had been removed. 1t is believ-
ed that Mrs. Carriers grave was opened by
mistake, and the ghouls found it easier to
take the body away than to RENTER it.
The affair created great excitement in the
city and much uneasness is felt by those hay
ing friends buried in the cemetery 1t is sus-
pected that the body of Miss Smith was taken
to a medical college in the city and dissected

DESIGNATION AND ROBBERY OF GRAVES
"A horrible dissertation and robbery of two
graves in Baltimore Cemetery, Baltimore
was perpetrated last week. Mrs. Annie Car
ter died of consumption and was buried on
the Goth of September. Her daughter, Jane
Smith, who also died of consumption, was
buried by her side on the 18th of November
Both ladies were members of the Catholic
church. On Sunday, November 18th, Mrs
Joiner, n sister-in-law of Mrs. Carter, had ar
ranged to visit the graves, but was prevented
by some slight indisposition from so doing
That, night she was troubled by strange
dream, in which she saw her sister-in-law's
grave, and itappeared that the earth had been
disturbed AT the same time she saw several
men walking towards the fence of the GENE
terry The men were crouchcd down and APP
peared to be bearing something that resem-
bled body between them. They passed
over the fence and placed the body in cart,
that was first driven cautiously and then rap
idly away.
She paid no attention to the dream, but
soon afterwards visited Mrs. Carriers grave,
forthe purpose of planting flower upon it.
The grave appeared to be sunken in, and
while planting the flower she found hanging
on the ratings of an adjoining lot a scapular
which had been placed around the neck of
her sister in-law, after death. She was then
convinced that the grave had been opened,
and obtaining permission from the cemetery
authorities, had the grave re-opened. Her

OLEoMARGARINE.-The manufacture of
oleomargarine has grown to large proper
tions in Philadelphia. Fully 100000 lbs. of
the compound are weekly produced in that
city. This is at the rate of 100000 year.
The demand is said to be i'm excess of the
supply. From $4,000 to 10000 pounds of
beef fat, 1900 quarts of milk and 500 to
1000 pounds of dairy butter are daily con-
sumed at the works in the manufacture of ar
titicial butter. Two-thrds of the entire
amount of oeomargarine made ut West Phil
adelphia is sent to Europe. London, Liver
pool and Glasgow are the principal markets.
A few cOnsignments have been sent to Italy,
China and even to Calcutta, India, but the
Europeans do not take kindly to the Ameri-
can article, A good trade is growing up with
South America. Some of the West India isl
ands are also consumers In this country
the bulk of the supply is sent to New Or.
leans, although shipments are occasionally
made to New York and Boston. The Hol-
landors are large consumers of oleomargarine,
but they do not get the manufactured pro-
duct in u complete state. Instead they take
the oil before it is churned and complete the
process themselves.

FALSE REASONING.
