Sixteen Below.

The first real taste Of winter was
experienced this week The tempera-
ture dropped to 16 below zero on Mon
day night. couple Of inches of snow
fell and the high wind prevailing on
Monday and Tuesday worked up a
pretty fair resemblance Of blizzard.
Still it was not a serious storm. Ev-
en- stock running at large suffered little
and the fall Of snow was not sufficient
to cause much inconvenience. There
is more snow falling today and the
weather indications are for local
storms. Keep tho coal box filed and
laugh at the Frost King.

out of which hats and the most deli
