The WEATHER to-day has been
cloudy, rainy and raw. During the
early morning sleet formed and
throughout the day many pedestrians
have taken the middle of the streets,
fearing to trust themselves on the pave

ANOTHER EMPTY HoUsE.-As has
been the case now for the past four
days, there were no cases for trial IN
the Police Court this morning. This
speaks well for a population of twenty
thousand, as well as for the efficiency
Of the fifteen policemen who preserve
order in the city and in the one mile
jurisdiction without.
