For cold wave was upon the city,
with snow furries possibility, and
what may be expected was indicated
last evening when the mercury. which

Dallas, S. D., reported fall of two
feet of snow on the level in the last

southern Wyoming and northwestern
Nebraska
Something of that kind was waht the
weather bureau at Washington an

region today or tomorrow, while the
local weather bureau made the outlook
glooomier by predicting a northerly
gale.
The cold wave was expected to af-
