that Pierre found it, while Mitchell

Mitchell evidently forgot to extend
the. ,c%Ouftesies.r The action was char
1lterizea as a HPierre trick" by che
Mitchell representatives. In fact, 1t
WAS n Of the tricks which Pierre is
noted for and which Mitchell has
never learned. that OF treating all
hFWtl0m they deal In a fair and
courteous manner.
It would appear from the foregoing
that IL Mitchell and Pierre had rep
r%esentatiyes at Sioux Falls the
Mitchell people realized that the
press association was at the ssQueen
City, as its guests and that good
taste, If not common sense, foroade
assuming any part OF an entertaipl-
ment which Sioux Falls bad not only
provided for but was ab%undantly able
and Eore than willing to carry oat.
Mitchell neither ''forgot to extend
the courtesies' nor the proprieties
which ahstained from working a
graft on Sioux Falls and the press
association upon an occasion when
capital and political matters were
cut of place. Mitchell newspaper
men and other citizens of this city
were the guests Of Sioux Falls and
Just ordinary kind of judgment would
indicate that 1t would not be good

the role Of host. However, some peo-

BtizzAhDS-COLU WAVES
Weather Prophet Hicks Makes Fee,
ruarv Weather as bad as
January Was.

According to LII X. Hicks tebru-
airy begins on the central day OF a
regular storm period. The FIRST stage
Of this period will fall In the last two
days of January. that is, change to
warmer with barometer falling in the
west, and winds shifting to easterly
aud southe-ly. BY the lst storm areas
will begin to form over the western
parts Of the country, marked depres-
sions of the barometer will be moving
eastward. and wide areas OF rain ana
snow and sleet will pass..rastwardly
across the country during the first TO
the fourth. Ordinarily a cold wave
and blizzard would appear before til.
4th, but the storms OF tbis--period
may not reach bi%izzardous proportions
until after that date. The disturb
ance continues up to about the 10th,
and cloudy, murky, sleety weather
will continue In all probability. into
the reactionary period central on the
9Th, 7th and 9th. II heavy sno and
sieet storms do not appear during the
first four days Of the month, such
stormsw Ill almost certai.. ly develop
about the 9Th to the. 9TH Upm the
whole much threatening weather
with e winter storms are almost
certainties dullng the first eight TO
ten days. OF February. This will.
prove n of the most general and
destructive--sleet p%e1lods--of the wan
ter, and at least one eve cold wave
may be counted on. Two ..are quite
probable. one not far from the LIST,
another on ..anu. about the 7Ln anu
9Th.
The third storm period ~is--centfal
on the 18th and reaches from the 10th
to the 10th. Falling barometer and
general storms of lain and snow will
return about the l4th, 18th. and.l6ll.
This period will eliminate about the
10th, bringing storms of a tropical
nature southwark, with. change 10
blizzardous features in the west and
north. This period may also be pro-
longed On the 18th almost up.to tile
reactionarv storms about the 18th
and 10th. These storms will be--fol-
lowed by a high barometer and cold
wave about the Goth to the 22d The
last regular storm period, for Febru-
airy Is central on the oath, its dis.
turning influence reaching from the
I'D to the 9th. The first stages of
this period will bring change to much
watmer in western parts-~inds will
change to southerly and easteIly, the
barometer will fall, the hyurometer
will show increasing humidity and
more storms OF rain, turning to snow
on the north side, will pass eastward
~ over the country from the oath to
the 9th.
as the month goes out generally
fair and colder weather will prevail.
In tue western extremes reaction to
warmer will have set in, and the ba-
rometer will be falling preparatory
for the reactionary storms due the
first three days OF March.
