in conversation with a friend, when his
voice suddenly failed him and his ability
to a~rticulate sounds became powerless.
The hours passed on and he could OBJ
tain no relief. He has come to Sioux
City for the purpose Of seeing if he
could obtain any relief. Mr.. Vinton is
accompanied by o. D. Tinney, a book

MONEY TO BURN.
That Is the Condition Of Series A Of the
Madison Building and Loan Associa-
tion-Amendmant to the By
Laws Proposed.

The directors monthly meeting Of the
Building and Loan association was held
at Secretary Schmidt's Office in the
court house last evening. No money
was offered for sale in series B as the
funds Of this series are at present used
in cancelling stock or redeeming loans OF
series A. Series A, however, has more
money on hand than it knows what 10
do with as it had no bidders for what
was offered. This places the stockhold
ers in a position where something new
has to be done to relieve the congested
treasury aid the following amendment
to the bylaws has been proposed to be
acted upon at a meeting Of the stock
holders next month:
Resolved. That the following provis-
ion be added to and become part Of Sec
ton SO Of the bylaws of the Madison
Building and Loan association to take
effect from the date of it's adoption:
II at any time after seven years from
the time a series is opened there should
be an accumulation Of funds in the ire as
ury not wanted by the members, then
each member who has not already Dor
rowed to the full amount of his stock
shall be compelled to either surrender
his stock at book value or borrow the
full amount of the same, and comply
with all the requirements made Of other
borrowers.
Bills were presented by Sarah J.
Fisher for s26l and E. P. Mueller for
s145 for money paid on shares and lost
by forfeiture through ~non-payment of
dues. Summons was also served by at
torney for these parties to recover same
by legal action. The bills were referred
to auditing committee. AS the sum-
mons requires answer by the 10th inst,
and the directors made no provision for
a meeting before that time to consider
the matter, the prospects for a suit
seems quite flattering.

Soap

NJ. Izarn has communicated to the
Academy Of Sciences a new method for
obtaining soap bubbles lasting a much
longer time than those obtained from
the soap water generally used. He has
recourse to q resinous soap made by the
following formula: P~ulverize together
10 grams Of pure rosin and 10 parts
Of carbonate Of potash add 100 parts Of
water and boil until complete solution.
We obtain in this way a thick solution
which may be kept in stock to be diluted
for use with from four to five times its
volume Of water. It can be kept indefi-
nitely even when exposed to the air. The
bubbles produced are very persistent and
consequently al be made useful in the
study Of phenomena relating to thin
lamin@ and in making photographs in
which soap bubbles play a part.

time ago Superintendent Marvin of the
Romo Electric Railway company offered
them the electric cars for one day, the

They accepted, and they have COM

vided up the time into turns Of two
hours each, and one married and two
single ladies took the different turns.
The girls put on their most attractive
summer garments, sewed bands of rib
bon ON them with Conductor in large
letters on the front, and they just took
the town by storm. The city was full
of visiting Masons, and when they
caught on to the scheme they filed the
cars and the lady fare collectors swung
around on the footboards and roped in
the riches in a hurry. The day was q
big success, and while the weather was
warm they didn't seem to mind it and
worked faithfully till II O'Clock at
night, when the cars were taken of.

ZERO WEATuER.

The Country has been having winter
weather in earnest for the past week.
OF course you all know it but we ctr0n.
icle it for q note of record and TO let
our readers many miles away know
how old probability is treating US.
Last Saturday about five or six inch
es of snow fell and made delightful
sleighing so that the prancing steed and
merry jingle of the bells made exhil
arating enjoyment for these who delight
in sleighlng.
Although it was good freezing wealth
er before the cold wave came Tuesday
night and made zero weather. The
mercury registered 80 degrees below
zero at PENIS Grove, the same as in
many other places. At Eagletown a
thermometer registered 80 degrees be-
low and at Church Landing 60 below.
At 8 O'Clock il was ~zeioI10 O'Clock 60;
l O'Clock p. NJ. 14o; 5 o'clock 100,
where the cold wind could get at the
thermometer and no sun on it.
The temperature in the mountain
district Of Pennsylvania ard in the
New England States was from 100 TO
15o below zero. In the Northwestern
States it was as low as 400 below zero.
On Thursday the temperature was
from 70 to leo all day. About noon a
northeast now storm set in. The snow
was fine, cold aud crisp and The fierce
wind which changed to the northwest,
blew the snow into banks and into the
fine crevises of houses. Roads were
blocked and footpaths impossible.
The temperature was about AZ Friday
morning. While it had stopped snow
ing the fierce wind kept the air full Of
fine snow.
No trains were run Friday. The
locomotive was taken out to the turn
table switch and it took two hours to
get it back. No attempt VIII be made
to run trains until the wind dies down.
at 4 O'Clock to-day the wind was the

The suit Of the administrators of
Chas. p. Parton. of Newbold. against
the Trolley Railway Company for dam.
ages for the killing Of Purton was for
$4,000. Ths testimony showed that
Purton, while driving 10 his home at
Westyille, on Oct. 90 1893, wssr Struck
by d trolley car near Colchester lily
and instantly killed. The plaintiff
claimed that Purton's death was dueto
negligence on the part Of motorman of
The car.
Counsel for the trolley company
claimed that his death was due to con
tributory negligence in that he did not
get off the tracks after due notice by
the motorman by the ringing of the,
bell, and that the company must-st
some protection from parties who "a
sist In remaining on the tracks and e.
laying the ears at will, and the (Gom-
pany have no redress.
Judge Garrison said the trolley com
pany had no more right 10 run ifto and

any other vehicle. II the driver OF a
wagon refused to get off The tracks, the
company's officials could have him ar
rested for his obstinacy, but the motor
man had no right to run into and en-
danger his life. Trolley franchises did
not give them rights not enjoyed by
drivers of horses. The Jury gave a
verdict of $1,000 for plaintiff. The
Woodbury. Democrat says the verdict il
valuable to the public at large. II the
