THE STORM LOCALLY.

Thermometer Shows Temperature Fall
ing Rapidly-RAilrOads Have Trouble.
People on the streets are we'll muff1 ed
up today to keep from freezing and the
trolley cars are having trouble in getting
along on time.
1t started out so very calmly this morn
ing for February weather that the Kan
sas public was just little bit surprised
at the sudden acting up it has been do
ing since O'clock.
Mr.. Jennings of Topeka is the only
one of the weather officers who made :,
correct or half way correct guess on the
them said it would be warmer, and it
was this morning, but it changed its
mind soon after breakfast and spoiled
the charm.
The temperature was lowest last even
ing at s o'clock, when it was eleven de-
grees above zero, and it rose to twenty
above by 6 O'Clock this morning. 1t was
a little breezy but about the same tenn
perature at s. By 10 o'clock regular
blizzard was in progress, the streets
were a sweep of binding flying snow,
and folks went along with their faces
screwed up into innumerable knots as
though that would help them see any
better.
The wind was from the northwest and
by noon it was ten degrees above.
1t had quit showing this afthernoon,
but the thermometer had reached points
as low at some places as four degrees be-
low zero, and is still tumbling. The
wind has not yet applied for lay off
and the prospect is that the snow will De
deeper and drifted, and it will be much
colder by light.
Mr. jennings says it will be colder
and fair tomorrow.
The railroads are not experiencing a
great deal of trouble near Topeka today
but are getting their snow plows ready
for tomorrow.
Along the Santa Fe.
The weather along the line of the
Santa Fe was reported to be cold anC
cloudy at a. N. this morning. Before
noon the blizzard broke, ahd the weather
is now very much the same all over the
system that it is here.
| he wind is drifting the snow and the
cuts are rapidly filling with dirt and
snow. At p. N. the running OF train:
had not been retarded by the storm, but
if the snow and wind continues the
trains will not be running on schedule

IN CARE THE STATE.

Illinois VIII BE Asked to Establish an
Anti-Toxino Plant.
SPRINGFIELD, Ills, Feb. Ga bill for
an appropriation of $4,000 to establish
a plant in which to cultivate, at public
expense, anti-toxine, the new German
anti-diphtheria serum, was introduced
in the state senate today by Senator
Brand. The bill provides that the plant
shall be under the care of the state
board of health.
Brand is a physician, aud says he has
used anti -toxine on % patients who had
diphtheria and not one died. Four of
his children had diptheria aud he sent
for anti-toxine. Two died before the
remedy arrived. The other two recover
ed under the anti-toxine treatment.

Milton Brown introduced four meritor-
ious measures. The most important of
these is one to prevent the collection by
any Justice of the peace. clerk of court
or any other officer so-called construct
i've fees" The bill describes construct
i've fees" so fully and completely that
almost any exorbltant, unreasonable or
excessive charges come under its pro-
visions. The collection or attempt to
collect any bill of constructive fees is
made punishable by q fine of not less
than $25. and the forfeiture OF the Office.
Another bill prevents the boards of
county commissioners from fixing sala-
ries below a living basis.
Afternoon Senate.
At the opening of the senate this after
noon the substitute for house joint reso-
luton No. Z was passed, appropriating
$4,000 for the purchase of coal for needy
settlers in western Kansas. This is done
because breakage in the machinery at
the state penitentiary mines renders that
institution unable TO meet the demands
of emergency. This resolution will
have to go back to the house.
The committee on public health re-
ported adversely two bills calculated to
prevent to a degree the practice of
medicine by itinerant and ignorant
quacks Chairman Metcalf of this COM
mittee filed a protest to the majority
committee report.
a Night Session.
BY vote of 10 to ten it was decided
that when the senate adjourned this aft
ernOon it will be until 7:30 this evening.
This is the first night session the senate
has held. A number of senators were
opposed to Drawing their constitutions
against the strong, chilly, north blizzard

COLLISION IN N. TOPEKA.
A Union Pacific Passenger Train Meets
Some Rock Island BOxcars.

A Union Pacific Passenger Train Meets
Some Rock Island BOxcars.
The Union Pacific passenger train that
goes west at II o'clock, collided with
some Rock Island freight cars at the
crossing in North Topeka, this morning.
Both the Union Pacific passenger train
in charge of Conductor Brown and
Engineer LAUDER and a string of Rock
Island freight cars attached to switch
engine were making for the crossing.
The freight cars got there first and be-
fore the Union Pacific could get stopped
it crashed into the cars as they were run
ming.
Three or four freight cars were thrown
from the track and the Union Pacific en-
gine got its front trucks off.
The passenger train was delayed about
two hours
The collision occurred during a blind
ing snow and it is probable misunder-
standing of signals was the cause.
