FOR CONTINUED COLD.
The Prospect as Reported by the Wea-
ther Bureau.

Washington, February 1.-THE Wea'
ther Bureau tonight issued the following {:
While the cold wave continues generally
east of the Rocky Mountains, except in
Florida, it has been characterized by re-
markably low temperatures in the vicinity
of Washington and further fall in the
Carolinas. In the latter districts, they
are from degrees to 90 degrees below the
freezing point, while at Washington this
morning the minimum temperature wasll5
degrees below zero, one degree lower
than the lowest previous record, which
was II degrees below zero on Janury l.,
1851.
The Mississippi Valley there has been
another fall of from six degrees to 10 de-
grees, except in the central portion, and
the temperature ranged from degrees to
ii degrees below zero, fall since last
night of from 6 degrees to 16 degrees.
In the lower Missouri Valley, middle
slope and the Southwest, the temperature
has fallen from 10 degrees to 10 degrees !;
the zero line extends to the northern bor-
der of Texas, and there was a severe nor
ther from Nebraska and Colorado south
ward, warnings Of which. were issued Fri
day night. In the west Gulf tempera-
lures are again from / degrees to degrees
below the freezing point, while in the
West and Northwest they are from IS de-
grees to so degrees below zero.
At Havre, Montana, this morning, the
temperature was 40 degrees below zero,
while from the lower Missouri Valley
southwestward into northern and north
eastern Texas, the temperatures tonight
are from 2 degrees to y degrees below
any previous record for the second decade
of February.
A remarkable feature of this cold wave
has been the abnormally high pressure of
the past two days. From Nebraska north
ward and northwestward the barome-
ter has read 81 inches or over, with a
maximum reading this morning of 81 40
inches in Southern Assinibo, Iowa.
The cold weather will continue and
there will be decided fall in temperature
on the Gulf coast, with freezing weather.
In the northern third of Florida, freezing
weather is probable Sunday night, and
message to this effect has been issued. In
the extreme Northwest, some moderation
of the extremely cold weather is potable.
Cold wave signals are displayed on the
Gulf cost from Pensacola to Browns
vile, and Meridian and Montgomery, and
storm northeast signals on the Gulf coast
from New Orleans to Brownsville.

at an interval of ten seconds, signalling
the advance of the whole line, the Kansas

"The rebels, estimated to have number

in open order.
"At 800 yards there was halt and then
a charge, and the rebels stampeded from
their trenches, which were admirably con-

wasting ammunition, but rushed on with
out firing and used their bayonets and the
butts of their rifles, There was heavy
slaughter.

forced.

-<Nanila, Feb. 15.-The insurgents at Pa
trSs. ten miles southeast of here, surren-
dered Wednesday, but the place has not
vet been occupied by American troops.
Since their surrender the Filipinos have
flown flags of truce, indicating their
submission, but this afternoon they OPEN
ed fire upon some detached troops of the
First California infantry stationed near
ly north of the town,
The Californians replied with hot fire,
driving the rebels out Of the town.
The insurgents moved south and made
a stand. An engagement followed, con-
tinuing until dark.
The Caifornians in the meantime are
reinforced by companies from the First
Washington and First Idaho regiments,
and the Utah light artillery. The former
Spanish river gunboat Laguua de Bay is
now on the way to shell the enemys rear.
1t is supposed that the insurgents, who
evacuated the town under its surrender;
had been secretly gathering at Patros un-
der cover of flag of truce for several lays,
with the object of making the attack
which was made this afternoon.

A NOTEWORTHY DEPARTURE.
Sixty Cents Worth of Entertainment for
Only Five Cents.

1t has been considered wonderful to
publish magazine for 10 cents containing
as much reading matter as would be given
in so columns of the average newspaper.
But the Great "Phlladelphia Sunday
Press" comes to the front with the an
nouncement that beginning nextISunday,
February 10, it will be so enlarged that
elch number will contain six times as
much reading matter as any ten cent
magazine. Just think of it! For five
cents you can get "The Philadelphia Sun
day Press" and find as much entertain
ment and instruction as if you spent sixty
cents for magazines. Look out for next
Sundays Press" 1t will be a wonder.

Chicago fire, in 1871 where over two thou
sand acres of solid city were swept away,
or an area of nearly four square miles, the
companies in this agency paid their losses,
in full, while eighty other companies were

eighty brick and stone buildings in

they paid their losses in full, while some

The earthquake shocks that were felt
here on Monday morning were severer
at many other points in Southwest Vir-

also in the eastern part of the state, in

At Radford people were so alarmed,
when they we're aroused from sleep, that
they were preparing to rush out in the

N,rOiOia
DearSir:


Your communication to the Pacific
Northwest Immigration Board, has been
referred to this office for reply
Ihavc caused to be sent you today few
copies of a book. of resources published by
this company, and will be glad to give you
any general information which you re-
quire.
There are in the states Of Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho, millions of acres of
government lands open for location, con-
sisting of agricultural, timber and grazing
lands. In addition to this, lands held
by private owners may be secured in
small tracts, or in bodies sufficiently large
to establish a colony. The latter lands
may be had in prices ranging all the way
from So. to $50. per acre, either for cash
or on partial payments, and balance with
interest.
There is probably today no portion of
the United States which can offer better
advantages to those desiring to locate in a
new country, than in the Pacific North
west. 1t is especially adapted to diversi-
fed farming. Markets are good, and will
continue to improve, as the trade of this
portion of the country increases with the
Orient, Hawaii and the Philippines. All
cereals are grown in abundance, except
corn, which is not cultivated on an extern
sive scale. Fruits and vegetables are
raised in abundance, and good market is
found for the same, not only on this coast,
but for eastern shipments.
would suggest that if there is any
number of people who desire to make
this change, that one of the number bese-
ected to spy out the country, and all con-
tribute toward the expense. This is the
most satisfactory way Of determining the
conditions of the different portions of the
country in orderto properly settle a colony
to its advantage.
If you can give me some idea Of lands
which you desire, will he very glad to
give you further information.
Yours truly,

Senator Allen, of Nebraska, has been rais-
ing a racket over some of the appropitions
bills because the Government has, he says,
too many "dead-heads" on its pay rolls.
In discussion of one of the bills last Seek
in speaking of the employees ofthe Govern
ment in Washington, he said there were
about so, 900 in all and that.there were 10,
600 too many or the latter number were
deadheads. In the discussion it develop
ed that the Government has only about
10000 employees in all in Washington.
1t looks like there are some blockheads in
the Senate, Allen among the number.
