RATHER DULL,
The Mills Suffer From the Snow
Block ade and Anchor Ice.


Blockade and Anchor Ice.
The Northwestern Miller will say to-
day: The weekly flour output continues
to hover about the 100000 barrel mark,
last weeks figures being buta few hun
dred barrels short of that. The official
figures are SO, 800 barrels-averaging 49,
$50 barrels daily-against 1OS, 400 bar
relS the previous week, and 11S,200 bar
relS for the corresponding time in 1887,
Floating ice has been source of much
trouble for several days past, the mills
at the lower end of the West side canal
being especially affected. This has
caused several to drop out at times, and
the water has averaged much better for
the rest. There were twelve mills run
ming at noon to-day, and the output was
not far from 10000 barrels daily. One
steam mill broke its engine and is tenn
pOrarily idle, leaving six now driven bv
steam power. The snow blockade of
the past week has made it difficult for
the mills to get enough wheat delivered
to grind, there being times when some
of them had used almost their last
buShel. AS result, supplies have been
largely drawn from local elevators. The
flour market is still quiet, though there
seems to be better inquiry, especially
from abroad. Some sales were made
toward the close of last week by certain
firms, one large concern selling cOnSid-
cradle patent for export. The direct
exports of flour for the week were
$4,000 barrels against $4,000 barrels the
preceding week.

BIC MONEY IN THIS.
An Opportunity to Double Your Money
Any Time Without Risk.
One of the Most Elegant Bar Outfits to
Be Sold at a Great Sacrifice.

Those who have ever visited the sam
pie room of A. III. Knowles, 81 Washing
ton avenue south, and taken note of the
bar, mirrors. sideboard, showcase,
screen and other appurtenances con-
tanned therein, are convinced that they
are the finest and most complete west
of Chicago. In minor details doubt
is expressed if any sample room in the
Lake City equals them, and yet the en-
! tire outfit is to be sold prior to Feb. l in
order to vacate the premises on that
date. The bar is tWenty-fOur feet long
and made of solid mahogany, the upper
2 part being single piece of this eXpen-
while the front is laid Off in panels COW
cred with hand-carved figures of vari-
Gus designs. The inner part of the
bar is treated in the same artistic
manner, and contains every convenience
pertaining to a frSt-claSS bar. The
mirror is the largest and most expensive
one of the kind in the country, being
divided into one central plate glass
96X120 inches, with a counterpart on
either side 72X96 inches, making a total
glass area of 2.112 square inches, and
the entire surface is SurmOunted by a
heavy, ornate, hand-carved mahogany
top with an exceedingly unique cOrnice,
artistically hand carved into fruits,
bulbs, ETC., while the ends are sup
ported by mahogany pilasters with pol.
ished columns at either side of the CEN
trail pier. The wide counter at the base
of the glass is of the same material as
the bar, and underneath are closets and
drawers, hid from view by deep, inlaid
panels of hand-carved doors, which
swing upon brass hinges and locked
with polished brass catches. There is a
sideboard of unique and attractive de-
sign of mahogany and plate glass, with
ornate cornice, base and sides, and pol
ished columns in the center. There is
also beveled plate glass screen of SIG
inches, encased in an antique oak frame
with heavy cornice and pilasters; a
showcase IL feet in length, whose glass
is solid plate without break, while
every article Of furniture is replete to
correspond with their surroundings.
The cost of this outfit was over S6, 600.
but in order to close it out by the date
specified great sacrifice will be made,
hence any one desiring the finest and
most complete bar outfit in the country
will make big money by seeing A. Fl.

The German Club.

The German club gave another of
series of social dances for the season of
'ST-'SS, at Malcolm's dancing academy
last evening.
The affair was all that could be de-
sired in the way of select party, and
was far more successful in the point of
attendance than was looked for by the
committees. About sixty-five couples
were present and the costumes of
the ladies were very beautiful, and
on the floor presented a brilliant ap-
pearance, The rich and varied colors
of the toilets formed variety of kali
eidscOpic changes during the progress
of the dances, which commenced at 80
O'Clock and lasted until a little after
midnight. There were lovely and
charming faces to be seen among the
dancers. and artistic combinations of
beautiful and rich fabrics and
bouquets served to set off feminine
charms. Every one entered into the
dancing with spirit. which gave as
surance of the fact that every one is en-
jOying most pleasant event. There
was not the usual number of "wall
flowers" which characteriZeS a large
portion of the dances, and every one
seemed to find partners readily. The
music, which was furnished by Danz'S
orchestra, was excellent, and enliv-
ened the merry dancers as they skipped
about the ball room.

DIXEY AS ADONIS.
A Hit at the Grand-Amusemen
Notes,

Last nights performance of "Adonis"
drew all immense audience at the Grand
opera and filled up foyer and aisles in
way that delighted Manager Conklin's
heart. 1t was one of the largest audi
enceS ever seen at the house. The
audience came to be amused, and thew
were, in elegant style. The play has
been one of the greatest successes of the
day and criticism is at once disarmed
by seeing the play. Tragedy blends
into comedy, light opera, ridicule, satire
and horseplay. 1t is an original COPY
of everything and nothing. A spectator
is simply astOunded at the brigh and
winning individuality of Dixey. He
infuses life and spirit in every aphorism
and imitation. In fact Henry E. Dixey
has demonstrated that he is one of the
most versatile and clever comedians be-
fore the public. The scenery and COS
tunes are of course very handsome.
Mr.. Dixey's changes, his imitation of
Irving, his song It's English, Y Know
are the salient features of his part.
Miss Somerville, George w. Howard.
the little four and Miss Tinnie are also
clever. Tonight there will be an en-
tire change of specialties.
More than ordinary interest is at
tached to the engagement of William II.
Gillette's highly successful American
play, Held by the Enemy,'' at the
Grand opera, for six nights and Sat-
urday matinee commencing Monday
evening, from the fact that we are to
see the exact original cast and all the
scenic and mechanical effects used dur
ing the recent run in New York at the
Star theater. The name of Held by
the Enemy" is derived from the scene
of its actiOn-a Southern city occupied
by the United States forces during the
late unpleaSantness between the North
and South. The scenery is said to be
very effective and is made to represent
Southern mansion, easement of a
fort during court martial, division
headquarters under fire and church
transformed into a military hospital.
The sale of seats begins this morning.
and for this company's season the usual
house prices of admission will be re-
sumed.
