Thermometers Marked Low as Six

Thermometers Marked as Low as SIX
Above This Morning.
The mercury came near reaching zero
this morning in outlying portions OF the
city. The government thermometer reg
istered six above at a. ID. which was the
minimum, though Sergeant Jennings
says that outside of the city it must have
registered much nearer the zero point.
People living in the western portion of
the city reported their thermometers reg
istering from two to four above.
The change was not sudden. About II
o'clock Saturday night light rain be-
gan to fall. This continued until about
! a. m. Sunday, when the weather began
to turn colder, though there was no per
ceptible change until daylight. At noon
it began to grow cold rapidly, and there
were few flakes of snow in the air. At
sunset it was evident that the night
would be the coolest of the season.
House plants were frozen and water
pipes broken and the plumbers are busy
for the first time this season.
Observer Jennings says that tonight
will be cold but tomorrow the weather
will grow much warmer.

Dalton was not the first to propose
the theory which makes all matter con-
sist of atoms. The Greek and Roman
philosophers, wise men of the east in
Egypt and India. and such eminent
moderns as Sir Isaac Newton and
Leibnitz had advocated the theory in
some form. Democritus &c. B., Vol
VII. 500 had advanced a form of the
theory, not only the earliest, but the
most remarkable in the history of sci
ence. Among the moderns, Newton
had insisted on the existence in all
bodies of unbreakable, unwearable, i'm
penetrable particles, each kind of

ture of the compounds are always the

the district court at Arkansas City.
Culman is the porter of the Grand

Santa Fe company considered that such
action was hurting the patronage of the
depot eating house and lunch counter,
and ordered Culman to cease calling
from the depot platform. Upon his re-
fusal to do this, he was thrown off bodily
several times and sustained injuries for
which he brought suit for $4,000 dam

man $500 and costs, and the Santa Fe

Tint AtchisOn Saloons Don't Suit Them
aud They Want a County Attorney.
Governor Morrill, and the officers of
the present state administration ara hay
ing more trouble with the prohibition
law in Atchison county
There is now on file in the governors
Office petition signed by eighty-six cit
liens of Atchison county asking for the
appointment of an assistant attorney gem
eraI in that county to enforce the pro-
hibitory law.
These petitioners represent that the
prohibitory law is being openly and
tiagrantly violated in that county and that
the county attorney knows all about it
and refuses to prosecute the violators.
This petition was first presented TO the
attorney general but General Dawes told
the bearersof the petition that as the city
of Atckison is metropolitan police city,
and the commissioners are appointed by
the governor, the petition would have TO
be presented to the governor.
The signatures on the petition include
the names of farmers, merchants aud
laboring men and an Atchson man who
looked over the names said most of the
petitioners live in Muscotahs bingham
and near Nortonville.
President Wake of the state temper
ance union who filed the petition says
the movement for the closing of the
Atchison saloons has commenced among
the country people who say the expense
of the saloons in the city must be largely
borne by them.
Governor Morrill, was asked to appoint
new police commissioners for Atchison,
but he said he would write to the county
attorney about the matter first
The governor has not yet heard from
the county attorney and has not decided
what he will do about the matter,

LARGELY REPUBLICAN.
Democrats and Popuiists Stand very Little
Show in the Present House.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-The utter rout
of the Democratic party in the congress
sional elections last fall became apparent
for the first time to the naked eye when
the new house of representatives assem-
bled today. Exactly 1853 new faces ap-
peared in total of 800. Some of the
oldest and most tried leaders among
Democrats we're swept out by the tide
which rolled up a Republican majority
of 146 in the Fifty-fourth house. Of
ninety-four districts north of Mason and
Dixon's line, which were represented by
Democrats in the last congress but 10 re-
turned Democrats to the new house. In
the new house the Republicans control
81 of the A state delegations. They have
70 solid delegations, while the Democrats
have but 4. Kentucky and Tennessee
delegations are almost evenly divided.
In North Carolina and Missouri the Re-
publicans control. The West Virginia
delegation is solidly Republican. Texas
and Virginia each has a Republican and
South Carolina and Alabama send PopU-
lists. The number of Populists in the
house is reduced from ~ to 6.
