Weather Men Say the Cold Wave
Has Re-enforcements.
Another Good Drop in Temperature
Is Looked for Tonight and 1t
VIA Continue.

The cool wave arrived on time this
morning, and suffering humanity has to-
day enjoyed a relapse from the .'sizzard''
of the past week. l..Ts f.
If the weather man does not fail i'm his
predictions, there is something better IN
store for tomorrow, as the thermometer
is expected to drop from five to ten de-
grees tonight. t.7~i'f'D
The temperature to-day has fIuctuated
from seventy to eighty degrees, and at
no time has 1t gone higher than the latter
figure.
All OF the lake region is enjoying cool
wave, and the temperature at Bismarck.
Dakota. to-day Is at the freezing point.
Northeasterly winds and fair weather gen
orally is predicted for the Atlantic. States,
and, of course, Washington will come in
for its share.
Everybody is wearing q happy snfiie to-
day in consequence of the remarkable
change in the weather, and ii is TO be
hoped that the Weather Bureau will let
the good work go on
II predicted on yesterday" said Maj.
Dunwoody TO a Times reporter, that We
would have a fall in the temperature. and
sent out over two hundred special bull
letins to that effect based my ealcula-
tons on the cool wave reaching Us last
night, but 1t did not get in until early
this morning.
II naturally expected that the Eastern
States would derive greater benefit
than that which is apparent to-day, but
the wave is n little delayed, and don't
think anyone will have right to COM
plain by tomorrow morning
THE backbone of the heated term has
been broken for good, and while We may
have several hot days in October, the
people OF Washington can rely upon il that
the day OF the wiited collar is over"

NAY KEEP ITS TROLLEY
Charter Of the Great Falls Road
Cannot Be. Disturbed. -,
Abolition of Georgetowp by Act Of
Congress Does Not, Affect tho
Rights Previously Grained.

/ The application Of the Great Falls Rail
way Company, based .spon its charter
rights, to maintain trolley poles, for one
square and a half within the limits of
Georgetown at the completion OF its sys-
TEN to the Union passenger station, was
heard by the Commissioners this morn
ing.
There is NO doubt OF the pght vested
by the charter, but it was believed that
by the merging of Georgetown with Wash
ington the prohibitise eEactinent would in
terfere
1t is the opinion of Attorney Thomas that
underthela W thecompany has theundoubted
right TO continue the trolley system, there
being nothing whatever to disturb their
qua ranteed privileges, and while the
question is still undecided, IL Is generally
conceded that the Commissioners wiil
finally coincide in this View 40
The space to be traversed by the trolley
within the city limits is from Thirt y-sixth
street west.

A Wonderful Invention.

The latest and most remarkable
improvement in food products is the
new Horsford's Baking Powder,
which has attained such enormous
sales in this vicinity during the past
few months. and which promises to
displace the old-fashioned kinds be-
cause of the greatly superior results
obtained by its use. This powder
excels in three different particulars,
viz: baking strength, healthfulness
and purity. One-and-a-half tea
spoonfuls will produce better results
than two full teaspoonfuls of the best
OF other kinds. All other baking
powders are composed of either alum
or cream Of tartar. both of which
leave physic in the bread. while
this powder is strictly pure phos-
phate powder, and is of itself a nat
ural healthful article of food, bene-
fetal to all. Every ingredient is
strictly pure. 1t contains no alum,
cream tartar or ammonia.

think turn about's fair play, and the
other fellow can afford to do without
it. " And. lifting himself to his full
height and hC.toning his coat across his
chest, he continued: mo. gentlemen,
never intend TO wear a shabby suit. A
man just can't afford to do it, Nobody
has any respect for shabbiness. Why. l
colldn't gain a case if l wore shabby
clothes il I had the eloquence of q De-
mosthenes or Cicero. not if all the law
and the prophets were ON my side. A
jury just wouldn't respect me enough
10 listen to ME, and the judge himself
would give his decision according to my
outward appearance. No, sir. q man
cant afford to wear shabby clothes. -
