ashore Acres- Advance Sale To-Day.
Few plays written within the past decade
have attracted such widespread attention as
James A. Herne's comedy Of New England
life and character. Shore Acres" which Is
underlined for the Grand Opera House for
three nights and matinee, commencing Mon
day. All who have seen and studied this
beautiful work VIII admit That Mr.. Herne
has lined his characters more nearly TO the
life and made them more real than in any
dramatic work which can be called to mind
In recent years. One must conclude that II
realism, wholesome realism, be the end and
aim OF stage production, Mr.. Herne has
more nearly hit the mark than any contem-
porary dramatist. The author will again ap-
pear In his creation of Nathaniel Berry, and
he Will have the support of the same adj
mirable company seen here year ago.
There will be entire new scenery and some
novel mechanical effects. The advance sale
opens this morning at the Pembroke.

ST. PAUL, April 1.-The railroads to-day
felt the result of yesterdays phenomenal
storm, and nearly all of them are suffering
to a greater or less extent. The Chicago
lines were but little affected, but trains from
the North and West we're several hours late.
and the Omaha night train from Duluth was
abandoned because Of drifts near Duluth
ranging upwards of ten feet deep. The
Great Northern suffered heavily bad wires
making IT most difficult to start trains.
The Swedish Lutheran Emanuel Church,
on Matilda avenue, was struck by lightning
during the snow storm last night and badly
damaged. No other damage to property is
reported in the city, the chief effect of the
storm being on the railroads, all OF which
suffered The city railroad systems in nearly
every town in the State suffered greatly. In
the twin cities and some other places the
storm practically blockaded all business
A West Superior special says: 1.-THE head
of the lake is again tonight experiencing
an intermittent snow storm, and the wind is
drifting the snow so badly as TO again tie
up the street cars. All Of the railroads are
attempting to move out their passenger
trains, although the freights are still aban-
doned number Of lost children have been
reported but all have since been accounted
for"
A special from Port Arthur, Ont, tonight,
SAYS that the blizzard has struck that region
and is blsckading the railroads.

ONE WAY OUT OF 1T.
Lane County, Kansas, Follows the
Banks and Goes Into voluntary
Liquidation"

Dighton, Kas., Dec. 29.-The board of
county commissioners of Lane county
have formally declared the county insol-
vent and issued instructions to the coun-
ty treasurer to refrain from further pay
ment of interest on the county's indebt-
edness. The funded debt of the county is
$125,O0O. The bonds are held by about
forty different corporations ana indi-
viduals in New York and New England,
and have been quoted almost at par.
Edward Helmie, chairman of the coun-
ty board, states '',at. this action was
taken simply besaase tne county could
not raise money eDough by taxation to
meet its obligations. He asserts that
the settlers of Lane county are not re-
pudiators, and pay their taxes promptly,
but that such is not the case with non
resident land owners. He oites as an
example the Jarvis-Conklin Mortgage
company, which owns ninety quarter
sections of land in the county, and has
not paid a cent of taxes for nearly three
years.
About $l09, 900 of the county's indebt.
edness is represented by bonds issued to
aid in the construction of the Great Bend
branch of the Santa Fe road.

WILL FIGHT THE TRUST.
Arbuckle Bros. Plan Consolidation OF
Outside Reiineries 10 Oppose sugar
NOnOpOiists.

New York, Dec. 30.-A new phase has
developed in the coffee and sugar fight
between the Arbuckles and the Sugar
Trust. On the threat of Arbuckle Bros
the coffee firm, to build refinery on land
purchased adjoining their coffee plants
in Brooklyn, the Havemeyers purchased
control of the Woolson Spice company
and have already made two cuts in the
| price of coffee.
Arbuckle Bros. have rstalated by en-
larging their plans for the refining Of
sugar. 1t has been decided to convert
one of their coffee plants into sugar re-
fnery. Room will be made in this way
for sugar plant three times the capacity
of the one originally designed. The new
estimates contemplate a refinery that will
produce between 5000 and 1000 barrels
of sugar day. formidable competi.
tion to the Sugar Trust will be thus es.
tablished.
II is also reported that the Arbuckles
are negotiating for the purchase of sew
eral independent sugar refineries, and
will endeavor to consolidate, for united
opposition, all of the refiperies outside
of the trust. Their plaus,..s fuliy@~ner-
fected, will result in a merry war over
both sugar and coffee, and will very
much cheaper these articles to the con-
sumers throughout the country. The
Havemeyers have se' F&they will
spend $l0,000,000 to force tne Arbuckles
out of the sugar business. The Arbuckles
have not SAID much, but from their ac'
tive operations evidently have more
millions of dollars to expend upon the
fight than the Havemeyers anticipated.

Bryan Banqueted.

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. ga compliment
ary banquet was rendered Hon. William
J. Bryan last night at the Lincoln hotel
by the Travelling Mems Bimetallic club.
Mr.. Bryan was heartily applauded when
he arose to respond to the toast "Our
Guest"
He said he was glad to speak to com
pany of travelling men because they we're
able to defend his position and they could
do missionary work in behalf of free
coinage during the coming four years,
for the simple reason that they, better
than any other class, we're able to SOM
pare the goods delivered since the cleo
tion with the samples shown during the
campaign.
He charged Republicans with having
given assurance of a return to prosper
ity, following the election of Mckinley,
but insisted there had just been the re-
verse, an increase of failures and general
breaking down of industries. He quoted
from commercial agency reports in sup
port of his claim.
Among the speakers we're Gov. Hol-
comb, Senator Allen, j. H. Atwood, of
Leavenworth, Kas., and District Judge
W. H. Thompson. Congressman Bland
and Towne, and Governors Altgeld and
Stone sent letters of regret.
