WILL REPORT BACK.
Entire Board of Trade Will Consider
the Proposed Omaha Banquet.

The board of trade committee ap-
pointed to formulate plan for re-
ception and banquet to be rendered
the officials of the Omaha road as
work of appreciation of the improve
ments made in this city this year,
held another meeting Wednesday.
Half dozen leading business men
were present to advise with the COM
mittee and the matter was talked
over thoroughly. All concurred in
the opinion that if such an affair as
was proposed was held it ought to be
made credit to the city. 1t was
thought that from 500 to $1,000
would be needed, and only a sufficient
number of guests should be present
to fill the tables once. Manager Snow
reported that he could accommodate
two hundred people at one sitting.
The favorite plan for raising the
necessary funds was to place the
tickets at SIS plate. The plans con-
template the inviting Of from thirty
to fifty railroad officials.
The city of Eau Claire raised about
81, 900 for the banquet recently ten
dered the Omaha officials, and the
affair was the finest ever seen in that
city.
1t was decided to make report to
the entire board of trade, members as
well as directors, and the matter of
having the affair will be settled at
that meeting.

STEALING UNCOVERED.
Much Coal and Lumber has Mysteri-
ousIy Disappeared.

For some time past it has been sus-
pected that coal and lumber was be-
ing stolen from the new Omaha yards.
Locks were placed on the cars, but
these were broken, and coal contin-
ued to be missing. For several days
an vestigation has been carried on,
and little coal was traced to a
shanty, but as the occupants sadly
needed fuel and could not have taken
much it was thought best not to pro-
secute them. The greater part OF the
coal and lumber seems to have been
taken away in wagons.
The coal that was taken belonged
to the Omaha road and was soft coal.
valued at 81 ton. About eight tons
has been stolen as nearly as can be as
certained.
The lumber belonged to Winston
Bros. and the amount taken was from
4, 900 to 5000 feet.
The matter was placed in the hands
of the police today and further IN
yestigatiOn made.

HE RECENT SORMS.

People in this section of the country
have little idea of the severity OF the
storm which ragged for two or three
DAYS last week throughout the north
west. and ended in the severe cold
wave which still has us within It's
grasp, much to the enjoyment of the
coal combination. Stories from the
northwest are now coming in. These
reports show that the storm was Tar
more serious than had been supposed.
At points on the Northern Pacific,
lust west of Fargo, the cuts are filled
with drifts from six to fourteen feet
deep. and these are frozen hard like
ice. while gravelis mixed all through.
Commencing Saturday morning two
large rotary snow plows succeeded up
to Yesterday morning in clearing live
miles of track. In many places the
snow plows were useless and dynamite
had to be used to loosen the frozen

AN AFTERNOON WEDDING.
Rev. III. F. Warning aud Hiss Ella
Durkee United In rIarriage.
They Leave this Afternoon for Nova
Scotia.

At Itwo o'clock Thursday, al
the residence of Mrs. Durkee, corne
of Clark and Center streets, occurred
the wedding of the latter's daughter,
Miss Ella Durkee, and Rev. HI. f
Waring, former pastor of the Baptist
church. The ceremony was perform.
ed by Rev. E. r. Mckinney, of this
city, in the presence Of some forty OF
fifty relatives and friends. The
brides maid was Miss Lu
Davis, of Madelia, a cousin OF
the bride, and the groomsman was
Mr.. Herbert l. Howe, of Winona. AT
the conclusion of the ceremony, ex.
cellent refreshments were served.
Mr.. and Mrs. Waring left on the
4:O5 o. M. train on the Q. & N. w
road for Chicago, where they
will remain for a couple OF
weeks. They will then 81
on to New Brunswick and

They will go to Truro, Nova Scotia

ing will commence his duties as pastor
of the Baptist church.
The bride received many presents
testifying the high esteem in which
she is held. She has numerous friends
in this city and elsewhere. Mr.. War
ing was fortunate in securing so es
timable bride. He is bright anG
rising minister and has the best
wishes of large circle of friends ir

mass. At points further west the
drifts were deeper and some are re-
ported as being from thirty to fifty
feet deep. Added to the blockade,
many of the smaller towns have the
horror of a fuel famine staring them
in the face. In Montana much ap-
prehension is felt by cattlemen, as to
the final outcome of the result of the
storm and the severe cold following it.
Such early storms are looked upon as
disastrous to horned stock. The hard
crust makes it bad for them to get at
the grass and they lose flesh rapidly
as a result, and fall an easy prey to
the billiards of later winter. From
all reports, so far, the loss of life does
not seem to have been as great as in
some storms of less severity in the
past.

A SAD STORY.

The Late A. S. Capron Belonged to
One of the First Families.
The lase Augustus s. Capron, who
died in this city Wednesday morning,
had rather sad life history. He was a
member of one of the first families of
Maryland, and was nephew of Gen.
Capron, of Maryland, al c'~guished
cavalry officer and exec ,sioner of
agriculture. He was all related to
the well-known Tiffany family of New
York. He was a college bred man
and classical scholar. During his
residence in this city he told several
friends of his past life and how he be-
came severed from his eastern rela-
tives.
The deceased enlisted in the 26th
