contained information regarding those
things which the human family most
desired to know about. 1t has received
improvements and additions from year
to year, and has now reached the point
OF perfection. The G o b e Co has
gone farther with the idea than has
been customary in past years. It has
prepared an almanac for 1899 that not

MINNEAPOLIS. Feb T.. The water

The frost has gone down very deep, and
the milder weather viii not check the
freezing Of mains and hydrants for
some time TO come. The department
had twenty men at work today, thaw-

possibly be engaged, have been put on
this work and the department is not

helpers. 10 keep the mains and hy-

the city they are So badly frozen that
great Inconvenience would be occasion

The work of the city poor depart

during the past week, has been very
heavy. Requests for wood have been
numerous. and the city has allayed an
immense amount of suffering and I'M

reveal numerous Instances of the most
intense suffering, and every effort is
being made to assist the unfortunate
ones.
Another threatened danger to the
residents Of Minneapolis and other
large cities is the freezing of sewer
pipes. Many pipes have been frozen,
and the sewer gas cut off from q means

HE LIKES POOL.
Congressman Marsh Played without
Ceasing for Fourteen Hours.

Congressman Marsh Played without
Ceasing for Fourteen Hours.
From the Washington Post
The greatest pool expert in congress
is Representative Marsh. Of Illinois.
He would sooner play pool than eat.
When he begins to play he approaches
the cue rack with a reverential air and
takes down q stick with caressing
touch. 1t must be exactly the right
length, its weight must satisfy him to
the fraction of an ounce, and even the
grain Of the wood must please his
fancy, for Mr.. Marsh has theory that
if the grain is in the least bit crossed
the accuracy of the blow which it
delivers IS impaired. When he has Sc
lected his cue he glances at the table
rubs his hand over the green cloth
and examines each ball separately to
see that it is perfect sphere. Then he
is ready to play
Having executed these maneuvers
Representative Marsh stood up against
a table at Wizards hotel the other
night at $50 o'clock. When he laid
down his cue it was $50 o'clock in the
morning. He played all night. At
first the game was Of the ordinary
kind, with no especial skill shown in
the shots. AS it progressed, however.
and Mr.. Marsh's opponent gave evil
dence Of some expert knowledge. the
Illinois congressman settled himself
down to a strategic campaign He for
got the rebel lead which he carries in
his body. and even the sixty-eight
years which rests upon his shoulders
seemed to have dwindled away to
twenty-five. He played and played and
played The crowd which had been
watching the mastery strokes disap-
peared. The bellboys slept in the mar
bic lobby. All the lights were extin-
guished except the one over his table
There was no sound anywhere except
the clicking of the balls within the
rooms and the dull rumble Of the night
liners on the street without
Morning dawned, and still Mr.. Marsh
fresh as daisy played on. The
scrubwomen appeared and manipulated
their brushes around the congressman's
feet. Still he did not quit. PeonIs
