Observer Lyons Says weather Will
BE Much Colder Today-severaI
Motors Burned Out on
slippery tracks.

Weather Observer Lyons will, if The
keeps. up the good work started yester-
day, establish record for veracity in
the matter of predictions. Look out for
snow tonight and tomorrow is what the
weather sage said yesterday afternoon,
and if anyone took the trouble to look
out for it last night they found it, and
a goodly number who did not need the
warning no doubt found it also
x MIR. Lyons also stated that it would be
decidedly colder today, and the change
in the weather was perceptible even as
early as $50 O'Clock last night. Shortly
before that hour large flakes of the
f1eecy began to make their appearance in
the night air, and in brief space the
same night air was filed with the same
kind OF flakes and a good many more.
The first appearance of the beautiful
really made its appearance in the shape
of singing sleet that sent pedestrians
and belated travellers scurrying to their
homes = Isa ter it developed into a good
sized downfall of snow, covering roofs
and lawns to the depth of fully quarter
of an inch. What the fall amounted to
during the night is problematical as
much of it turned into a disagreeable
slush.
1t takes a big fall of the beautiful to
hamper the service of the Twin City
Railway company, but-trafIic all over the
system was delayed.
On the heavy grades progress was made
sswith difficulty, the wheels under the inn
'spetlls of the electric fluid being driven
. at a great velocity, yet refusing to get a
pl1rchasea -on the snow covered tracks.
= because of this fact several motors were
birnedt out and the cars had to be pulled
into the barn.

CANNED GOODS ALUXURY
ADVANCE IN PRICES OF FROM 10
TO 100 PER CENT
Short Crops Cause Raise Which
Puts Common Supplies Out of
Ordinary Mans
Reach.

81 Canned goods, when they were first in
troduced to the trade, were supposed to
be used almost exclusively by the poor
man, and until this year the price of
them has always been within reach.
The short crop of last summer placed
canned goods on what might be term
ed the premium list. Nearly all lines of
fruits and vegetables have advanced from
10 to 100 per cent.
A prominent wholesale grocer yesterday
said: Canned tomatoes are luxury
now, and it will not be long before it
will be impossible to get them at any
price on account of the short pack. The
price has advanced 100 per cent over last
year.
Canned corn has advanced from is to
20 per cent Canned apples are now 80
per cent higher than I have ever known
them. All the higher grades of canned
fruits have advanced about % per cent.
A number of contracts were made last
summer with packers by wholesale firms.
and it will be impossible for the packer
to fill them except in part. This of
necessity will cause higher prices, as the
wholesaler is not able at this late date
to refill his order with other packers eX-
cept at advanced prices.

Little Chance = Some of the
Bench Claims Are YieIding

Julius Thompson and wife, Of Nome,
Alaska, are at the Ryan on their way
to st. Louis, where they will spend the
winter visiting Mr.. Thompson is the
senior member of the firm of Thompson.
Murnan & Thompson, which is engaged
in mining work on large scale in the
new gold, fields. They also carry on a
law business in the new metropolis of
the far Northwest. Mr.. Thompson went
to the gold regions of Alaska in 1900, af-
ter spending twenty-five years in'the min
ing districts of the western part of the
United States. Previous to moving to
Alaska he was interested in the famous
Cripple Creek mines.
In speaking of the gold fields at Nome,
Mr. Thompson said thatdthey were I'M
doubtedly among the richest fields that
have yet been discovered THE gold IS
not in such shape as to make it possible
for the poor man to secure 1t. Mr..
Thompson estimates that scarcely one
fourth of the gold is in such shape
that the poor man can get. 1t out of the
sand. In many places it requires the use
of expensive. machinery and equipment
to work the claims. The only form of
mining that will pay is sluicing, and that
requires an expenditure entirely beyond
the reach of the man with average
means.
Mr.. Thompson says that the gold de-
posits of the Nome districts are found in
the beds of streams that were there CEN
sturies ago, and in many places all traces
of these streams have entirely disappear
ed In other places they run diagonallyl
to the present streams. This causes some
of the bench land, or the high land that
lies between TIE present streams, to be
very rich in their deposits of the yellow
metal. %
Mr.. Thompson expresses himself as
highly pleased with the prospects of this
far northern field. and considers 1t to be
the healthiest place on the face of the
earth. He is interested in 80 claims, and
expects to- go back as soon as spring

CAPITOL
SONGS AND REFRESHMENTS
Memories of Bygone Days Recalled
In Short Impromptu Speeches
s7se and in an Original
Song.

It is not to be supposed that a small
thing like a rain or STOW storm would
keep the sturdy pioneers, who, forty
years ago, plodded through drifts OF
snow to church and social gatherings,
from attending gathering, and it didn't.
The Ladies Auxiliary of the Territorial
Pioneers association entertained the men
and women who came to the state before
1871 at the capitol last evening andsfHlly
200 pioneers and their wives attended the
affair."
Rev. Cyrus Brooks, one Of the Oldest, If
not the Oldest divine N the state, braved
the dangers of the storm and was pres
ent and opened the meeting with a
prayer.
Women who arranged the affair wished
to have everything as informal as pos
sible and consequently no programme
was arranged, but Mrs. H. c. Hazard,
president of the Ladies association, call
ed upon different speakers who made I'M
promptu remarks. In order that they
would be merely remarks and not speech
es, Mrs. Hazard stated when calling
upon the speakers that remarks would be
Z limited to five minutes. Among the
speakers We're Rev Cyrus Brooks, Capt.
Peter Berkey, A. Hendrickson,4 Ess Is
Eerrisford and others. "a
While the remarks were good they wefe
not the only good things of the evening.
A trio composed of Mrs. Dr. Brimhall,
Mrs. Hazard and Frank Wilson, sang
an original song, the words of which were
written by W. H. Hoyt, a pioneer himself
The title of the song is Territorial
Days" and deals with the different con-
ditions at the time the first pioneers came
and the conditions at present.
The Postoffice band was present. and
furnished an excellent musical pros
gramme throughout the evening and the
women furnished an agreeable surprise
in the form of ice cream and cake. The
good things were kept up until after 10
o'clock.
Gov. Van SAINT had promised to speak
at the meeting when it was proposed to
hold it a week ago, but when it was
postponed he was unable to be present
as he left for his parents home at 8
o'clock last night.

A Rice street car colided with Como

Sixth and Seventh streets. about o'clock
yesterday afternoon, and for a few mo-
ments there was considerable excitement
among the passengers. No one was hurt,

glass, TO damage was done. The inter
urban car was leaving the side track for
the main track at the same time as the
Rice street car was coming up on that
track. The slippery rails made it diff
cult to bring the cars to a stop, and the
Rice street car crashed into the inter-
urban. A few of the windows were brok-
en- and some of the glass was strewn
about the cars. The passengers were
badly scared, but no further damage was
done and the cars We're able to resume

WHEEL RAN TOO FAST
LABOR bureau ORDERS CHANGES
INA BLACKSMITH SHOP.

AS a result of an inspection by FACTORY
Inspectors Moersch and Lott, OF the
State Labor bureau, the owners OF the
blacksmith shop at 375 Broadway have
been ordered to make certain repairs on
their emery wheels and to reduce the
speed of same. 1t was found that the
wheels had been running at the rate of
2.9O0 revolutions minute. which is in eX-
cess by 700 revolutions of the speed that
is allowed for the safety of workers upon
wheels. The stand was in bad shape and
the flanges too small for the twelve-inch
wheel used. The investigation is the out
come of an accident which occurred in
the shop to Clinton Pemberton, few
days ago when one of the emery wheels
broke and he was quite seriously injured.
