anything encountered in mines in Mon.

counter either mummies or a charnel

The bill was reported by the commit

ANOTHER BIG STORM.
Topeka and Whole state Is shivering
Today.

The weather conditions today have
been anything but pleasant, a raw wind
was blowing continually since early
morning from the north at the rate Of
is miles an hour and is filled with frost
which adds to its disagreed bleness. Once
or twice there has been a light fall Of
four-like particles of snow during The
day but the skift which fell has not
been sufficient to hide the rabbit tracks
made last night.
There has been an attempt on the
part of the sun a time or two to break
through the heavy banks of clouds but
the best that can be done is to record
these efforts as fiat failures. The tenn
of Tuesday has been just about Rhe re-
verse. Tuesday the mercury stOed 1T
70 at Z o'clock in the morning and by
noon had reached the a mark Ihls
morning at Z o'clock when the first no-
tice of the mercury is recorded It stood
at 21 and it has fallen steadily since that
time until at the noon hour 1t reached
the mark of 10 where it started the
morning previously.
Yesterdays snow storm is traced
across nearly the entire continent from
Boston on the east to Salt Lake City
on the west.
The extreme cold of today with the
slxift of snow Which fell on the pave
ment last night and this morning makes
the paved streets nearly impossible for
horses unless shod with very sharp shoes
and the sidewalks are as nearly Impass-
able for foot traffic.
The forecast indicates that this after
moor. and Thursday will be fair but that
there Will be a fall in the temperatures
