SPEAKING OF WEATHER.
Thoughts Suggested nv the SnOx
That Fell Last Night.

That Fell Last CSt&ht.
The deepest snow Asheville has had
this winter fell last night, and when the
town awoke this morning it found near
ly three inches of the beautiful on the
ground. Snow has been blowing during
the day, but not enough has fallen to
add to the depth Of that which fell last
night. Today was the first time there
has been an opportunity for good sleigh
ing, and it was taken advantage of, a
number of cutters appearing early and
making the streets lively with the jiug-
ling of sleigh bells.
The yoang man who began the recital
of Beautiful Snow" this morning as he
was passing Powell & Snider's store,
immediately saluted the pavement
with his ear and has promised to go and
sin no more.
The wise man cleaneth off his sidewalk
and sprinkleth ashes thereon. The
thouShtless one doeth nothing, and
paws the damages to the brother that
falleth thereon and breaketh his neck.

GERN1ANV'0 TACTICS
Caprivi SAYS 0he Must Take The
Offensive.

BERLIN, Jan. 13.-Chancellor Won Ca
priyi last night attended a meeting of
the Reichstag committee of twenty-eight
appointed to consider the army bill and
made an important statement, letting
forth the necessities for the adoption of
the bill without change or modification.
Referring to the relations existing be-
tween Germany and Russia, the Chancel-
lor declared there was no enmity between
Emperor William and the Gar, and
neither was there any enmity between
the two governments. With regard to
the relations between France and Rus
sia, von Caprivi said That probably an
entente in regard to military arrange
! ments existed between those two coun'
| tries. He then referred to the possibility
| of an attack being made upon the ma
1 tions composing the triple alliance.
/ Germany, Austria and Italy, and said
| that if such an attack was mad the chic
1 onslaught of the attacking forces would
doubtless be directed against Germany
as the strongest member of the alliance
Experience had shown that when a wal
was threatened it was best for Germany
to take the offensive.

TWO OF a KIND
The Latest Joke Told On w
KGidxe1ev PennHInan.

Everybody who Knows w. Ridgeley
Penniman an jr., land who doesn't p knows
that he just dotes on rabbits. He would
make friends any day with the most
forlorn specimen of rabbit imaginable,
but when it comes to real fine thorough
bred rabbits, and he has a chance to fon-
die them, he is tickled almost beyond
belief.
Some time ago a friend who knew Mr..
Pennirnan's liking for what the South
erner calls "cottontails" sent him two
fine specimens of genuine English rab-
bits, really beautiful animals. Mr.. Pen
nimau at once set about properly caring
for them, and sent them to his fathers
home west of the French Broad. There
a very expensive warren was built for
the ra bbits, and Mr.. Pennirn an began tell
ing his friends of his handsome gift. Incl
dentaIly, or course, he promised every
friend to whom he mentioned the matter
a pair OF fine English rabbits. He kept
on this way until he had promised no
less than twenty-seven pairs OF the little
Dummies"
Everything moved along smoothly tor
a while, and Mr.. Penniman was happy
thinking of his latest pets. But yester
day a cloud came over the sunshine o.
his dreams, and he sings no more. The
cause of it all was the receipt of mote
from his father which read something or
this order:
"If you expect to furnish your friend:
with rabbits. YOU will have to add tc
your stock in the warren. There doe:
not seem to be the diversity of sex nee
esSary to insure an increase"
And Mr.. Penniman, they say. will moi
now go near the market house, for fea1
he will have to look rabbit IN the face

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 12.-Accord-

weather bureau, the present storm
started in northern Montana Tuesday,

Officials of the weather bureau say this
is the deepest snow that has fallen in the
sections indicated for several years, and
they anticipate much interruption OF rail-

The snow is four inches deep east of

ST.. MARYs, O., Jan. 12.-With the

there came the startling report that the
main which leads into this field had
burst from intense cold yesterday after
noon, and shut off the supply altogether,
thus leaving the inhabitants OF this city
at the mercy of the frigid weather. The

wood nor coal in sufficient quantities to
be had in the city.

purpose of untieinssAhe tangle in the
House, adjourned at midnight without
having formulated any plan to present
to the two Houses today. The Populists
demanded that three Republican men'
bers, who were postmasters at the time
of their election to the Legislature,
should be unseated and the Populists be
given their seats. This would, of course
place the Populists in control of the
House. The Republicans refused to con
sent to this scheme, arguing that the
postmasters could serve legally as mem
bers Of the lower House, they having re
signed their positions as postmasters
since their election to that body.

A MYSTERIOUS BOX.

appeared in the Night.
The Sheridan, Wyoming), Post tells
of a mysterious occurrence at that
place. A box about four feet long by
three feet wide, consigned to John D.
Boiles, Sheridan. Wyoming. and
shipped by Charles Jones of Omaha,
Nebraska, was unloaded from the ex-
press car and stored in the depot at
that place, as all express matter is,
and locked up without attrcting any
attention. In about half an hour
Agent Woods discovered that the lid
had been forced from the box and
that the contents were gone. He at
once notified the officers, and a
thorough investigation was COM
menced. When the box was critically
examined there was found to be no
evidence on the outside that any tool
had been used in loosening the cover,
but on the inside, at one end, were
plainly to be seen the prints of man S
feet. Further investigation revealed
the fact that the sliding door to the
express room had been unfastened
from the inside. and stood ajar just
about enough to allow man to
squeeze out. That the box contained
a live human being on its arrival there
can be no doubt, but no trace of
where he has gone to, who he was or
what his object could have been, has
been obtained. There are many the
cries, however, and the true facts in
the case may yet come to light. Some
think that the occupant of the box
was an escaping criminal; some be-
lieve that it was simply an ingenious
plan for beating the railroad COM
pany out of the fare from Omaha to
this place
