open at o'clock in the morning were not
open until late in the day Slight accidents
were reported from all parts of the city on

surface roads the cars that did run left the
depots with six and eight horses Many
were run off the track and abandoned
Along Sixth and Third avenues number
of cars came into collision with the ele-
waited railway p liars. The snow drifed
so deep in places that it was almost impos-
sible even for pcdestr ans to get around.
Snow plows, which We're sent out to clear
the tracks, were snow-bound and deserted.

Thomas awealthy resident of this county,
living several miles out of the city, and a
man named Thompson employed on the
formers place, were in the city yesterday
and started home late IN the afternoon In
somewhat mudtled c9ndtloft. After
reaching the house they became engaged
in a quarrel, and Thompson got rope
around Thomas neck and endeavored TO
hang his employer to an orange tree, Dut
was too drunk to accomplish his
purpose. When sober; Thomas dis
charged Thompson, who felt so aS'
grieved that he procured some arsenic,
purchased few days previous for killing
rabbits; and took big dose, dying IN
few moments. Colonel Thomas, Rticrward
desiring to take a seidlitz powder, used
the same glass; and he is now in dying
condition Three other persons drank oa'
of the glass oflcrward, and two oil them
atenut expected to live. The above ln

have leaked out that will justify Close
