SLEET DELAYS COAL WAGONS
Fuel Is i'm Columbia, But Hauling
Is Hindered.

Is Hinderpd.
Sleety pavements this morning
caused some COlumbians to wait
longer for cOal-and a few were en-
tirely out. Four ears of coal were
in the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
Railroad yards this morning. and
there was coal in the Wabash yards.
II. l.. Wilson, agent of the Katy, says
there has been coal in the yards con-
tinually, and there would have been
no shortage if people could get it
hauled.
The low temperature has had an
opposite effect on food prices. PO-
tatoes have gone up 80 or 40 cents
a bushel, and the supply is short at
that price. Fruit could be shipped
into Columbia during the cold wealth
err only by express, and the price was
cOrrespOndingly higher. Eggs are 40
cents a dOZen-when there are n
on the market.

Sixty Columbia Couples Will Dance
Quaint Figures Again.

Quaint Figures Again.
A cotilion will be given at Column
bia Hall on the night of February 2.
This is the first dance of this kind
that Columbia has had for four or
five years. About fifty or sixty
couples will attend. The entertain
ment will be given by the young men
and the young married couples of
Columbia.
There will be eight figures. each of
which will have five leaders. This
dance is appropriate for leap year as
the young women are given a chance
to choose their partners.
The hall will be decorated. At
II end will be a favor table for the
M and at the other end will be
a favor table for the men. The first
dance probably will be an umbrella
lance. In connection with this will
be used Japanese lanterns. When
all the couples have their lanterns
the electric lights will be turned off.
A 1O-piece orchestra will furnish
the music. After the dance refresh
ments vii be served in courses.
