chicaao,s Miraculous Snowfall.

(FrOm the New YORK IrlDune.)
Let skeptics and scientists talk as
they will about the inexorable laws of
nature, the day of miracles is not yet
past. Doubters are invited to turn
their eyes toward the famous city of
Chicago, where twentieth century A.
ID. Joshua has been hating nature for
a much longer time than the twen-
tieth century B. c. Joshua was able to
do. Something after the ancient man
ner the modern Joshua appears to have
made the snowdrifts of January, 1905,
stand still on the banks of Lake Michi-
gan that he might find recruits enough
to drub his political foes. AS if this
were not sufficiently impressive abro-
CATION Of natural laws, the Cook coun-
ty wizard also preserved snowdrifts so
huge that LOO street laborers are still
shoveling them away, and he capped
the chilly climax by making the drifts
invisible to all eyes save those Of the
civil service commissions auditors,
who have just discovered their exis-
tence by an inspection of the municipal
pay rolls, whereon are still inscribed
the names Of the heroic LOO. Chicago
has certainly beaten San Francisco,
Boston, st. Louis, Harrisburg, and all
the rest to a standstill. And every
body is wondering how the miracle

so interesting to her as herself, and
she was too self absorbed to see or
feel the mental attitude Of another and
to sense when she was being tiresome.
In short, like oil cyclists, she lacked
tact
But Kinross politely persisted and
at last succeeded in holding her at
tcntion upon his story long enough to
excite her mild interest. She was very
much surprised of course. She ex-

When, after half hour that had

face was SO beaming that Gateshead,

ALIKE UNDER COMMERCE ACT.
Interstate Commission Dismisses the
Petition of the Milwaukee Line.

Washington, Dec. 2S.-That the IN
terstate commerce act makes no dis
tinction between railroads, whether
electric or steam, when engaged in in
terstate transportation is the opinion
of the interstate commerce commits
sion. This decision was rendered IN
dismissing the petition Of the Chicago
and Milwaukee Electric railroad COM
pany against the Illinois Central rail-
road company and others.
The commission further declared
that the proviso limiting the power of
the commission to establish thru rates
and joint rates to cases where no
reasonable or satisfactory route
exists" was not intended to afford a
means by which new lines, with the
aid of the commission, may profltably
force their way into shipping districts
built up and already well served by
other lines, and thus seize and divide
with the latter such traffic as may be
offered for movement.
Another decision held that employees
of produce companies must pay full
fare in travelling to points where they
expect to secure consignments and
become caretakers.
The commission adheres to its pre-
vious ruling that carries must eX-
haust their legal remedies to collect
undercharges from consignees before
filing their petitions for redress.

thousands of "jacks'' cavorting in the

starting from Mob Hill to meet the
first, whilea the third contingent Will
start in the Cowiche. They will meet
in Cowiche Canyon, where the killing

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
8 Oddly in the Mems
Draws Four Aces; Drops Dead.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.


Cleveland, O.-Sight of four aces,
dealt to him in u poker game, killed
Thomas Sachs at midnight last night.
He toppled off his chair as his thumb
and foretinger raised the fourth bull
let and his heart action stopped.
There wasn't such a big pot on the
table either. Sachs, who was a la
borer on the Belt Line Railway build
ing in Newburg, the steel mill suburb
Of Cleveland, Joined his fellows in d
clubhouse on the works in nights
indulgence in the American game, into
the mysteries of which he had b~-l
initiated some years before.
Sachs, who was SO years old, had
been warned by a physician to be-
ware of excitement, as he had a weak
heart. He thought, however, that he
could stand quarter limit game with
out danger, even when it came to a
round of jack pots, which had been
well sweetened.
The strain became too great, how
ever, when Sachs saw 1915 in the pot
and the aces coming into his hand, one
after another. Several weeks ago
Sachs cut out the strenuous amuse-
ments popular at the camp. such as
drinking bouts and fstic encounters
on slight provocation.
However, he could not cure his pas
sion for gambling. and as he sat in the
game last night remarked: I'll play II
I die for it."
