Weather Conditions.

The high pressure area over the Mis-
sissippi valley yesterday morning has
moved to the Atlantic coast, with much
lower temperatures along the Atlantic
coast. Snow has fallen during the last
twentyfour hours along the northern
boundary from New England to AL
berta, and rain in the middle Pacific
coast region. The pressure is low in
the Mississippi valley and the greater
portion Of the country to the west
ward, with much higher temperatures
generally from the Mississippi valley
to the Rocky mountains. Another area
of high pressure overlies the British
provinces this morning, and is accom-
panied by much lower temperatures in
that region. Snow is expected in this
vicinity tonight and possibly Sunday,
with higher temperature tonight, due
to the low pressure central in the lower
Missouri valley, and as the high pres
sure area moves southwark and east
ward, after this low pressure passes,
the weather will grow colder either
Sunday or Sunday night.

AND SENT TO W0RKH0USE

Joseph Marchant's attempt to thrash his wife
and get back a bill Of sale he had given he1
resulted In his being sentenced today to the
workhouse for ten days. where he will nurse
a badly battered head.
A quart of whisky was the original cause
of the trouble. He took it to his home al
Bass lake Saturday night and began consuming
1t before breakfast Sunday morning. By NIGH
he was in fighting trim and decided that he
would get the bill Of sale which gave the wife
possession Of the home and everything in it
Finding his threats futile, he started In with
his fists. Then Mrs. Marchant, who says she
has stood that sort Of treatment for years
took hand in the game herself
When she thought Marchant had pounded he,
enough she took stick from the woodbox and
knocked him down. When he managed to gel
up he was humble, but the wife didn't stor
here, and the next day swore out a warrant
for his arrest. .o
When Judge G. L. Smith heard the story to-
day he refused to allow Marchant to pay q
fine and COMMUNICATED Mrs. Marchant's nerve
in defending herself.
