How Recklessness Was Punished on
 the Seine.
 PARIS, Jan. 13.-A terrible accident, by which nine foolhardy persons lost their lives, occurred here to-day. The Seine, with the exception of the center of the river, has been frozen over for some time. Yestesday tho whole river was covered with ice, the middle of the stream, how ever, being hidden by what the police judged to be dangerously thin ice. Con sequently the authorities forbade people to cross the river. In spite of this number of venturesome men and boys made the attempt. AS they neared the middle cracking was heard, causing a number of the foolhardy to rush back. Others, to show how daring they were, pressed on. Suddenly the ice gave way and precipita- ted 8 number of the people into the water. Many were drawn out, but nine men are known to have been drowned.

THE WEATHER IN EUROPE.

THE WEATHER IN EUROPE. Monkeys Frozen in the Geological Gardens Railroad Traffic Being Resumed in Austria-Thavv in Eng land and France-Much Suffering. LONDON, Jan. 13.-The rapid thaw con- tinues in this city and in Paris. The thaw has just commenced in Antwerp, where fears are entertained that the sudden breaking up will cause great deal of dam age to shipping. As means of protoc- tion against the immense masses of floating ice large iron plates and huge timbers are being placed across the bows of the vessels in the Schelettt. Eff teen thousand persons were thrown out of employment through the closing of the river, and their means of livelihood having thus been cut off they have been reduced to most destitute con dition and widespread suffering prevails. The charity of the numerous persons and associations which has been bestowed on these people is inadequate to alleviate all their misery. The weather which pre- vailed yesterday was the coldest yet re- corded in Spain. Many trains are report ed showed under in Galicia and elsewhere. Numerous animals, including the monkeys in the geological gardens in Madrid, have been unable to withstand the terrible weather and have perished.
 Advices from Belgium state that the seaport of Newport is still ice-blocked and inaccessible, and that the docks of Ostend are so crowded with shipping that it is almost impossible to carry on the work of unloading vessels.
 VIENNA, Jan. 13.-The storm that has been raging throughout Austria has at last ceased, and from all quarters come reports that the snow has stopped falling and that railway traffic is being resumed. Four children were recently frozen to death while on their way to school. It is be- lieved that many persons perished in the storm, and that when the snow has disap- peared startling number of victims may be revealed.
 MADRID, Jan. 13.-The country dis tricts are suffering severely from the re- cent snow storms. Snow seems to have fallen everywhere and has proved exces- sively damaging to the farms and vine growers. Heavy gales have prevailed all along the coasts

LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 13.-The state su- preme court this morning allowed the quo warranto proceedings begun by ex-Judge Thayer against Governor Boyd to go on file and summons to issue. The court an nounced that in case the lieutenant gover- nor should desire to intervene in proceed ings it would allow such jurisdiction and also ruled that ex-Governor Thayer would lose nothing by vacating the apartments he held. The. hearing may be postponed five weeks. Notwithstanding the decision of the supreme court the independents in the house stubbornly refuse to recognize Boyd as governor until the question of citizen ship is determined. It looks as if all legis- lation will be blocked until the contest is decided
