Miss Anna Thompson, who has been
out in~the country working has quit
there and will go over to Harlan to
visit an uncle. The man who travel
ed so far to see a beautiful form
wrapped in bit of calico will now
travel shorter distance perhaps.
Lars Esbeck, one of the big cattle
men over towards Elkhorn, shipped
two cars of stock Monday evening
from this station to the Omaha mar
kets. The years of experience that
he has had in buying and selling
makes him a good Judge of markets
and he will doubtless make money on
this deal.
Last Sunday number of friends
and neighbors of Miss Anna Hoegh,
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Nels
Hoegh, gathered at their home last
Sunday to help her celebrate her Goth
birthday. She was somewhat taken
aback at first but soon recovered and
helped them all to have a most
delightful time.
Supervisor Nels +. HOegh, started
two cars of cattle from his own yards
to the Chicago markets Monday even
ing. Nels has watched the markets
close and believes this to be about the
best season of the year possible to
strike good prices. He went along
with his stock to see them through
safely and to see the sights of the big
city.
Rev. Adams from the east part of
the state, is preaching in the Baptist
church at this place this week and is
giving universal satisfaction to those
who have heard him. He comes to
the people we'll recommended and his
sermons show him to be a man of
strength and ability and he will
doubtless remain as their pastor if
he so chooses.

NEW-ENGLAND IN ICY GRIP.

Boston, Dec. 9.-Las+ night was the coldest in any
December since 1884, according TO the Weather Bu-
rear officials in this city. The thermometer at the
weather station went to degrees below zero in the
night and at S a. m degrees below. Reports
from places in the vicinity of Boston indicated
Temperatures ranging between 20 degrees below and
s degrees Selow in the early morning All over
New-E,ngland the extreme cold weather prevailed.
4 rise in temperature within twenty-four or thirty
six hours is predicted.
There was serious trouble on the railroads as
temperature dropped so low in the night that II

set the shoe was firmly welded TO the tread Of the
wheels. Engineers had great difficulty in main
tanning proper steam pressure
New-Haven, Conn, Dec. 9.-The mercury at
o'clock this morning registered degrees below
zero the lowest point reached here since February
IL 1899 In Torring-on and other places in the
northwestern part Of the State the thermometer
went to Il degrees below this morning.
Portland Ne, Dec 9-The thermometer at sun
rise ranged from 10 Is degrees below in the
city Cold weather prevailed in the eastern part
of the State. The cold wave struck Maine just
after dark last night. In twelve hours the tenn
perature fell about 20 degrees. At Lewiston and
Auburn the record % below zero. Most of the
schools in these places closed for lack of fuel
Lewiston and Auburn have less than 200 tons of
anthracite and small supply Of soft coal on sale
New-York tribune., 1902-12-10
THE SUPPLY AND THE DEMAND.

Though the supply of anthracite throughout the
country seems to be short of the demand, repre-
sentatives of the coal carrying companies who
were seen yesterday said that the quantity OF an
thracite mined last month broke all records. Pres
ident Baer of the Philadelphia and Reading Rail
road who was in this city for several hours yes
terday and had informal conferences with the other
operators on the situation. said when asked about
the supply:
companies amounted 10 4964000 tons. 100000 in eX-
cess Of what mined during November. 1901.
During December of 1901 there were many floods.
and only 100000 tons mined This December
II is expected that at least 5000 900 tons will be
mined "
Asked why it that with this great output
anthracite was so scarce he said:
am not in a position to say exactly: that would
be a matter for the sales agents to know How
ever l do know that the shortage caused by the
strike left a big hole to fill. Up the end of
November last year 49.495090 tons were mined Up
TO the end OF last November, only 26IO0O0O tons
Ip by the of bitumnous coal. and the in
creased output will help matters unless there Is
some kind Of setback, but in spite of this the
shortage will still be large New-York is getting
it's fair share, believe, though there many
places which need coal more. The strike found
the entire country bare of coal
1t was learned that about $4,000 tons of anthra-
cite coal TO tidewater here daily. in
cluding 100 tons from the individual onarators
About one-thrd of this coal is pea, buckwheat and
other small steam sizes. One-third of this 81 600
tons coal, 1t said goes to Boston, and towns
and cities along the Sound. and the rest goes to
New-York City and its vicinity.
