The Chinook Wind

This part of the country. and
perhaps all the rest of the state,
was visited last week by a Chinook
which blew for two days and nights
steadily, completely sweeping the
valley of snow. The mercury did
not get down to freezing for AZ hrs.
and water ran everywhere on the
ground. 1t was one of those for
tunate events in the lives of men
that saves them from destruction
or, at least, from much hardship
and discomfort. The long, ex-
treme cold of December WAS get
ting in its work on the focks and
herds of Wyoming stockmen, but
the Chinook changed the entire
aspect of nature and worried frowns
and anxious lines disappeared from
their faces The ground is again
covered with SNOW and the wealth
er is cold, all of which is very
Encouraging to stockmen.

Shortage of Freight Cars

Supt. F. J. Cramer of the 8. & E.
Ry., finds that it is almost impos-
slble to move freight on his line
because of his inability to get cars.
He says there are rs cars ordered
for hay and cattle, and the Union
Pacific is unable to supply cars
only at rare intervals, and then
very grudgingly. This is OCCASION
ed by the heavy traffic over it's
main line. In Mr.. Cramer's opin.
ion the situation amounts almost
to car-famine, tho he hopes
matters may change in a few days.

A Relic Of 1865

E. B. Hancock, the brother of
Mrs. M. Hutchinson. who came
here recently, is in possession Of a
relic of war days, being no less
than a copy of the New York Her.
aid of April 18th, 1865, which
gives a full account of the
assassination of President Abra-
ham Lincoln and an attempt on
the life of Secretary Seward.
The same paper tells of the evacu-
alton of Richmond, the Capitol of
the Southern Confederacy and
the retreat southwark of Jefferson
Davis the President of the social
ed Southern States. This copy of
the Herald is a 4 page, 6-column
paper, the sans size as the Sun
and shows to what enormous pro-
portions the Herald of the present
day presents over what it was at
that time. Mr.. Hancock, who
was a member of Company "I",
39th Ills. Vol. nifty, is now in his
10th year. He has been a remark
ably we'll man during his entire
life, never having had a doctor
visit him nor give him a dose of
medicine. The frosts of winter
have settled on his head and beard
and he could readily pass for
Santa Claus without a bit Of dis
guise or change of raiment.

SEEK TO ENJOIN THE
USE OF FIRE PLUG

Asking for an injunction restraining the
CITY of Birmingham from making use Of
the fire plug on the northwest corner Of
Third avenue and Twenty street, the
Title Guarantee Loan and Trust COM
pany yesterday fled suit in chancery
against the city and the waterworks COM
pany.
1t is claimed in the petition that the
fire plug in question, which is installed
in the sidewalk in front of the Title
Guarantee building. is the cause of an
overflow in the basement of the building
whenever put in use. The inundation is
said to be source of some annoyance
to the patrons and attaches of the Wom-
ans Exchange, a restaurant located In
the basement of the building, and the
fire plug is denounced as nuisance.
The petitioners claim that numerous
complaints have been made to the city
and the waterworks company that the
plug was defective, but that 1t has been
out of order since the year 1900, when II
was installed. The suit is filed for the
Title Guarantee company by E. j. Smyer
its president.

wounds sustained in shooting ARRAY
which occurred on Market street while
it was crowded tonight. Charles Hens
ley, a lawyer of Dayton, who was across

The trouble Is the result of an old
grudge. Ten days ago Thompson fired
three shots at Snider within a block OF
the scene of tonight's tragedy All the
shots were wild.
In tonight's ARRAY ten shots were fired
and a panic ensued among the crowd on
the street. After Snider had emptied his
pistol at Thompson the latter staggered
to a drug store. hundred yards away.
Snider followed, reloading his pistol as
he ran. Thompson fell to the sidewalk,
when Snider leveled his gun at the pros
trate form. Bystanders interfered and
grasped the pistol from Snider's hand.
All three wounded men We're hurried to
hospital for treatment, but there is no
hope for the recovery of|either Snider
or Thompson. The former received three
bullets and the latter four.
