ANOTHER TOUCH OF WINTER.

The Mercury Failing Steadily Ever Since
Yesterday Morning.
At this late day Pittsburg is to have another
touch of winter. After the heavy rain of
Wednesday night the weather grew colder, and
the mercury has been falling slowly but stead
fly ever since yesterday morning. At the Signal
Service Office yesterday it was predicted that
temperature this morning would be between
l50 and zoe. This will cause overcoats to button
themselves up TO the chin.
At Fl. Buford, n. D., yesterday morning the
mercury was 400 below zero. As the cold wave
is coming east it Is probable that it will not be
warmer here for two or three days

Peril IN 2 Bows telegraph Line.

A special from Topeka, Kan, says:
Two inventive lads, Fred Baer and
Earl Mcdowell, constructed a private
telegraph wire, the wire for which was
obtained from a screen door, which
they carefully unraveled. The line
was about three blocks long, and mid
way between the batteries lived Arthur
Green. The line broke down one
evening, and the wire must have fallen
across a copper wire belonging to either
the electric light Or rapid transit COM
pany. Young Green was walking across
the aney when he raj into it and it
froze onto him like a leech. The strong
current from an unknown source made
the thin wire g. perfect saw. 1t took
the top off one ear and ate its way
straight through the other to the skull.
Catching him under the chin, it burned
his throat from ear to ear, almost sew
ering the iugular vein. 1t cut a fright
full cash on his forehead and Scared
his hands, with which he tried to free
himself, Ike g. red hot iron. He is still
alive, but his recovery is doubtful

70 Wipe Out the Lottery.

The appeal of the anti Lottery
League Convention of Louisiana to
the people Of the United States for
Aa against the Louisiana Lottery
Company will command wide atten-
ton. The Convention describes the
company not inaptly as "a powerful
gambling corporation, which sits
here among US like a giant octopus
and stretches its arms to the remot-
est hamlet in the land"
The location Of the company in
Louisiana is one of the results Of the
civil war. The charter under which
it has been operating till now was
granted by the carpet bag Legisla-
ture of 1868. It's originators and
benefciaries were men that were
foisted upon the State during the
carnival of misrule inaugurated by
the reconstruction policy Of the party
dominant at Washington. Corrupt
in it's origin, it has made SsH
Gus, business,
pby its cofTupt7ng influence in State
and local politics. 1t is always in
politics" with an eye to its COPPER
ate interests. This interference with
good government in Louisiana is the
strongest argument the anti Lottery
League argues against the Lottery
company. The net profits of the
company, as stated by the League,
are enormous It's drawing aggre-
gate, it is said, nearly s50,O0O,O00 a
year. So much goes to the mana
gers that the chance for a prize is
not over one in thirty Of the tickets
sold. The effect of <he lottery To-
cally is to demoralize thePeople and
