ONE WEEKS WEATHER,
SATURDAY DECEMBER 10th, 1s9

SATUhpAh brChMbrh lObhY loOS.
This was a very pretty day. The sun
was out bright and early and staid out
with its over coat off all day. Many
good people came to town did their trad
ing and went home happy in the knowl-
edge that they had secured many good
bargains. Especially was this the case
with those who read the lNTELLIaENCER
and had been guided in their shopping by
its advertising columns. 1t is the liberal
advertiser who gives the best bargains
always bear that in mind.
SUNDAY.
This day promised better than it full
filed. The sun came out all right in the
early morn, but got behind the hazel
brush before the noon hour and stayed
there the balance of the day, affording
about half as much shine as we all
wanted.
MONDAY.
Cloudy, yet doubtful whether it should
snow, rain or sleet. A few goslings were
picked early after breakfast, then the sky
begun peeping through the cloud in spots.
At noon the cloud curtain increased in
thickness. The weather clerk had heard
of the recital" at Hagen's opera house,
had not been invited and was mad about
it. He fro Rned and fumed all afternoon,
then sent a drizzle upon us all that froze
as it fell making the roads and sidewalks
one unmitigated banana peel.
TUESDAY.
Things were "slickery," you bet Tues
day morning, and it took a fellow with
the sure footedness of a mule to stand up.
Soon after breakfast it begun showing
and by moor enough white truck to cover
the earth to a depth of three inches had
precipitated. Then it quit showing, but
pouted out the balance of the day.
WEDNESDAY.
Sun came up from clear water, but the
days beauty was but skin deep. All the
cuticle got rubbed off before the middle of
the afternoon and not many fellows you
met blasted their reputation for veracity
and penetration by saying, "fine day
strip The world looked sad, sloppy and
uncomfortable and the sun went down in
a fit Of genuine sulks.
THURSDAY.
Would pass for a very fair winters day.
1t was not warm enough to go swimming
nor cold enough to cut ice. Between these
two extremes the frozen ground thawed
out, the snow in exposed places was
melted, and a little dry begun to show on
the high points in the roads. Barometer
marked 30 inches-which is normal and
the day passed off with incident.
The INTELLIGENCER's aneroid barom-
eter denoted fair weather this morning,
but, like Biela's comet, it was a campaign
lie. Snow began falling at 8 O'Clock a, IN.
and continued until ii n. m. The ground
was frozen, the temperature was below 30
and conditions good for a heavy fall, but
it got tired and quit. The day was I'M
eyentiul.

An Italian newspaper reporting Ameri-
a political news, says the democrats
have 500 majority in congress, and that
q c0unt,a democrat, killed another count,
who was a republican, during the last
campaign, who himself had mortally
wounded three men. No wonder those
fellows over there think they could lick
the United States.

other Democratic leaders who can be elect

lion TO Republicanism. The Horld will be
formost in his support. The nert President
must b. a Democrat.
But while doing this The World viii give

Republican meetings and speeches in the
