PLENTY OF ICE FOR SKATERS AND DEALERS
COLDER WEATHER COMING.

Inere was a sort OF an Ltold you-so expression
1oout the way IN which the clerk of the Weather
bureau on top OF the Equitable Building told Trib-
uhe reporter yesterday what cold weather the West
oin m people had been having during the day. Up at
'nheoosa. Manitoba, for instance, the mercury had
gone down to 5o degrees below zero. and that kind
vi weather. he said, galloping along Eastward

'nls morning The keen edge. however, will prob
aoy be worn of during the long journey, but II Is
predicted that tho mercury Will be somewhere near
zero about the time when the morning papers are de-
hvered TO Ncw-Yorkers
Early yesterday morning the temperature stood at
II degrees above zero. and although the sun coaxed
" up little during the day the mercury refused 10
come out OF Its hole any great distance and only got
up energy enough to go up two three degrees dur
ing the day. When the disappeared behind the
New-Jcrsey hills It had depressing effect on the
thermometer, and the mercury gradually fell until
u registered 12 degrees above zero and was falling
throughout the evening
At midnight the mercury stood at degrees above
zero and was still slowly falling. The northwest
"ind was blowing, not quite so hard as It did carly
IN the evening, but the sergeant in charge Of tho
weather bureau predicted that It would continue in
mat direction for several days and when It stopped
inc weather would grow warmer There wesc no
lhdlcauons Of snowstorm reaching this city for q
day or two
Keen northwest wind was blowing at tho rate Of
twcnfy miles an hour all day. II blew the dust clean
ffom tho pavements and lodged IL in peoples eyes
anh on their clothes. The ice on the lake in the
pask had become thick that the Commissioners
allowed skaters 70 beg heir sport and about p.
there were fully 5000 people the fee. The weight
OF Tho crowd became great u at tho ice began TO
orcak In places and several persons narrowly escaped
falling into the water. In other places the water
began 70 food the Ice. AT 3 80 o'clock the skaters
were all driven of the fee. and were told that II the
weather remained cold there would probably be good
skating to-day

ROCK ISLAND AHEAD.
The Latest Thing IN Tour
tst Sleeping Cars.

The Rock Island has inaugurated
new feature, which promises to Gre
ate considerable interest In railway
Improvement, it being q free tourist
car service, with nearly all the con.
veniences of the palace car, includ.
ing colored porter in attendance, fine
hair mattresses, pillows, blankets,
soap, etc. When made up for the
night, the fourteen sections are par.
titioned off with sliding pannels, and
curtained with heavy damask draper
les. Tables, attachable to the sides
of the interior, are provided for each
section. The cars are heated by
steam, the aisles carpeted, and GUS
pidors for the cleanliness of the cars,
are added. The duties of the porter
accompanying each car will be SINH
lar to those of the palace car service
to look after the wants of the pas
senger and see that the car is kept
perfectly clean. In one end is the
ladies' lavatory, and in the other, one
for gentlemen, which are as nicely
appointed and furnished as the most
fastidious would desire. The inten-
ton of the Chicago, Kansas & Ne
braska is to furnish these cars free
of charge to tourist or excursion par
ties when the number of persons is
sufficiently large to justify the use of
a car or cars. With such accommo-
dations, and without change, there is
no further necessity of western tour
without sleeping accommodations,
nor is it necessary to make suck a
trip expensive. 1t is great induce
ment for parties, clubs, or any con-
siderable number of persons contem-
plating trip to the Rocky Noun
tains, for instance. And, too, the
Denver & Rio Grande has adopted
the same scheme, and as the Rock
Island connects with this route in
Colorado, the free tourist car system
will no doubt be generelly adopted
by those in search of the pleasure
and health. giving regions of our con-
