Sudden Change In the Weather.

One OF the most sudden changes In
the temperature OF the atmosphere
ever felt In this country was exper-
fenced last Sunday evening. Up to
past noon OF that day the weather
was quite warm, pretty much as IL
had been for the past 20 days and
which caused the oft repeated declar-
alton to be made: II never saw
such Q warm September"
About 2 O'Clock p. N. the wind be-
gan blowing fierce gale, clouds
we're soon flying In the air, and
about 4 O'Clock there was q clever
shower OF rain. In the meantime IL
was getting colder. In = few hours
the mercury fell some 80 degrees,
and Sunday night there came con-
siderable frost, enough to stain
sweet potato leaves and tobacco.
Throughout Colorado, Utah and
the Dakotas there vas O snow,
especially In Colorado. from 4 to II
inches deep. The snow accommodating
on the fruit trees in and about Den
yer caused terrible destruction.
Many trees were loaded with fruit
which had not mstured. In Kansas
the change was very sudden. The
mercury registered at some points
90 $40 in the shade on Saturday,
with burning hot wind that killed
much OF the late corn, and was re-
duced to the freezing joint before
Monday morning.
Upon the whole, Saturday and Sun
day last throughout the West and
Northwest were remarkable days and
will be remembered for many years
In weather circles for their sudden
change from heat to cold.

on the Venezuelan high commission, the
Worlds Washington correspondent Is
informed that Mr.. Lincoln was Secre-
tary Olney's own selection and that
Chief Justice Fuller, of Illinois, also
strongly recommended him on the
gronnd that report signed by two form
er American ministers to England, both
Of whom have been warmly praised by
the British press for many years, will
have much weight in Great Britain.
1t is urged, the correspondent states,
that public opinion in England cannot
ascribe to such men as Phelps aud Lin
coin any prejudice against England,
where they are both very popular. The
third member of the commission he says.
is likely to be one of the associate justices
of the United States supreme court,
probaaly either Justice Brewer or JUS
tice Brown.
1t is understood that Chief Justice
Fuller's health will not permit him to
serve On the commission and that the
president will not insist further on his
acceptance.
Mr. Justice Brewers name has come
prominently forward, and it is thought
that he or Mr.. Justice Brown may be Sc
lected to serve in the chief Justices place
at the head of the commission.
The whole question of the personnel
of the commission is still in an inchoate
state, and it may be day or two yet, or
possibly longer, before it is completed
and announced.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-The probable

ments.
Senator PETER does not believe that it
is necessary to issue any bonds at all.
He said: "rhere is no need for the issu-
ance of any bonds. The situation is not
SO urgent as to demand it. OF course If
any bonds had to be issued l should pre-
fer to have them taken by our own peo-
pie as the bonds in the house proposal
would be. But there is no necessity for
any bonds to be doated."
What would you do if money had to
be raised at once; you can't wait for a
tariff"
"Sim ply pay out money that is already
in the treasury" said Senator PETER.

Representative Kirkpatrick thinks
| under the circumstances perhaps a pop
ular loan OF the kind suggested by
| Speaker Reed in the last congress and
now proposed or thought of by the ways
| and means committee, would be the best
| expedient.
| He is opposed to bonds of any kind
and par icularly gold bonds, but as
there is a continued deficit, and as rails
ing taxes would not relieve the present
situation he thinks short time denomina-

most feasible remedy.

man there sometimes comes a pinch
when it has to borrow, and when this has
to be done it should be done as cheaply

obligation as soon as possible.
'As revenues can't be raised in time tc
relieve the present condition it may be
necessary to issue bonds of the kind sug-
gested. l am in favor of that kind be
cause it will enable our people to take

"The bonds should bear about pei

"By the time such bonds are due We
| shall have raised revenue enough so we
