W|NTRY BLASTS
emperature Drops Twenty-Seven De.
srees in Night in Martinsbure.
Giving Real Winter Touch

drop in the temperature of q
degrees in 10 hours is the record IN
Martinsburg last alght At .. IN
yesterday the mercury registered ss
degrees at George w. Van Metres
government thermometer. which was
about the average temperature during
the day. But about 10 o'clock last
night there was q snow squall fol.
lowed by high wind from the west
ana sudden drop in the temperature
which continued throughout the night,
This morning 1t was degrees above
zero at z o'clock, the coolest OF the
winter, though still lower tempera-
ture is reported in town. One man,
foi ex ample. says it was above at
his place on Second street at 1850
a. m.
The cold snap continued all day
Indeed it seemed to be a good bit
colder this afternoon than this morn
ing. yet the temperature was really
two degrees warmer at o'clock this
afternoon when the thermometer
registered II above.
Ice formed all along the street gut
tiers. while at the intersection OF
Queen and Martin streets the usual
wide expanse of ice froze last night
and today, nuisance alike to horses
and pedestrians.
The much-joked-of plumber got in
his work today. lots OF hydrants and
water pipes having frozen last night.
And there is no relief in sight from
the rigor of this wintry weather. The
forecast is for continued cold tonight
and Saturday. so folks will have to
put up with it, and householders had
better make their peace with the
slandered phlmber.
Remember the Poor.
| This cold weather reminds US that
while some are well fed, clothed and
bedded. there are many others In this
community not so comfortably cir
cumstanced. Practical charity begins
with our fellow men who most need
il, say the philanthropists. The Stone
Home makes it beautiful custom OF
giving clothing as well as food to the
needy in winter time. So If the many
people in town would send but few
Of their cast-off clothing to the Stone
Home it will be properly distributed.
Feeding is also badly needed by poor
families these cold nights. So now is
the time to do some practical charity,
and let people take the gentle hint

Prison After Detection of Bond
Frameup.

Chicago, Nov. Holm Arthur
Johnson. champion bruiser of the
black and white races, went to cell 50S
Of the county Jail on Friday night. He
was a prisoner OF the United States
government held without bonds on or
der Of Judge Kenesaw Mountain Land
is. He was charged with transport
ing a white girl across state lines for
immoral purposes.
Johnson was led to the jail hand
cuffed to Deputy United States Mar
shall Northrup. On the sleeve of his
coat was a wide black badge of crepe,
worn in memory of Eta Duryea John
son, his white wife, who committed
suicide.
Judge Lands, in whose court the
prize fighter spent an eventful day
listening to efforts made in his behalf
by counsel to obtain his freedom, had
refused to release the prisoner, al
though Mrs. Tiny Johnson, his moth
er, offered to schedule $4,000 in real
estate. Johnson himself, through his
attorneys, stood ready to give a cash
bond of $4,000 In the form of a certi-
fed check.
The judge decided to take this un-
alterable attitude as the result of a
t'frameup" which a band of profession
al STRAW" bondsmen attempted to i'm
pose on the court.

Quebec, Nov. 9.-Nine hundred pas
& of the Royal George, a Cana
dian Northern Railway company liner
which went ashore on Thursday dur
ing a fog, one mile east Of Point st.
Lawrence, Isle Of Orleans, arrived
here on a tender. They were taken to
Montreal on special trains.
Captain Belanger of the steamer
Savoy, who passed the Royal George,
does not thing the liner is in a dam
genous position. She went ashore on
a bottom of sand and gravel, and only
her fore part touched bottom.
The North, an old ferry boat which
brought the load of passengers tc this
city, returned to the Royal George,
but strong wind from the south pre-
vented her getting near the wrecked
liner to take off the remaining pas
sengers. The Cruiser, the big tug OF
the Canadian Pacific railway, also
failed to reach the Royal George.
The remaining passengers were res
cued from their perilous position by
vessels belonging to the government
service.
AT this season the chanel becomes
narrower and the photographic maps
indicate that steamers should not run
more thar four and a half miles an
hour. The Royal George, it is esti-
mated by some, was running at a
speed Of eighteen knots an hour in an
