THE WEATHER;S CH1NGE,

The sudden change from the al
most unprecedented weather of early
December to the rigors of an Arctic
winter was felt almost throughout the
land. In New York the Thermometer
registered the lowest for the season.
In Michigan the temperature reach,
ed from 15o to 1So below zero on Sat
urday and below zero was the range
throughout the State.
In Indian Territory. which is claim.
ed to be the weather Paradise of the
United States, heavy snow was the
rule and it was feared that great
damage was done.
At Richmond, Va, the harbor was
covered with ice and tugs were EN-
ployed keeping the river open for
navigation.
At Montgomery, Alabama, the first
snow storm of the season fell.
In Ohio, the river was SO full of ice
as to render it dangerous for boats to
meet and impossible for them to land.

When a person comes into "O]d Man,
Smiths cigar store and hands him
money in return for something pur-
chased, the old Ia can ascertain by a
single glance or touch whether the
money is good or counterfeit. II. the
money Is bad, he puts it under the to-
bacco cutter, or his money tester, ais he
calls 1t, and sewers it in two. Z
One day last week a rough looking
young man came into his store and
asked for a piece of chewing tobacco.
At the same time he laid a so cent
piece lightly on the counter. The old
man picked up the money and looked
at it. It had a dull color and was not
as heavy as an ordinary half dollar.
The proprietor walked over to where
the tobacco was, and, taking down a
piece Of the brand the young man had
called for, he pretended to put it under
the tobacco cutter, but instead he slip
ped in the counterfeit piece and cut it
into halves. He then handed the two,
pieces to the young man and command
ed him to "get," which he promptly
did.-Chicago Record.

New York i. Provincial.

Perhaps there is no city quite SO pro-
vincial as New York, says A. Maurice
Low in The Atlantic, due to the fact
that the average New Yorker, whether
in society OF business, has got into the
habit of p%atronizing the inhabitants of
any other city. The New York bust
ness man c~ompaacently feels that ths'
rest of the country is financed by New
York and must do as New York tells it.
The society man or woman Of New
York believes that outside Of New
York. with few exceptions, there is no
society worthy of the name. and what
society does exist is merely a bad imi-
tation of its New York prototype. y

The evidence disclosed that the
contestant had not seen the land
until Sept. End, 1898. The de-.
PENDANTS evidence showed that he
had in 1895 '96, and 81 planted
tree seeds but failed to get a
growth of trees and no trees we're
growing on the land after the
spring of 1898 except a few young
poplars of natural growth.
It appears from defendants
evidence that no planting Of trees,
seeds, or cuttings. or efforts to Sc
cure a growth Of trees was. done
until spring Of 1895.
The contestant having failed to
establish his charge his interest
was there byyeliminated from the
..-@ lGrtEE. - sr..ar #H-s.-E-t.
case and the government only was
thereafter concerned. Viewed on
the defendants evidence as a case
between government and entry
man, cancellation Of his entry is
not justified. The evidence dis
closes efforts in good faith to OBJ
tain growth Of trees and while
such efforts we're unsuccessful and
perhaps lacked technical compli-
ance with law, the evidence Of bad
faith or intentional noncompliance
with law is lacking.
The local Office decision is there

sed and entry held entact.
