THE SITUATION.

London, Jan. 8.--Winter storms
and floods, while terminating the ex.
tended military operations, are not a
sufficient obstacle to the armies in the
east and west, which are pursuing the
offensive at isolated points along the
two extended fronts. In the snow.
covered hills of the Caucasus the
hardy Siberians are searching for
routed Turks, who are reported sur
rendering by the thousands. In Flan-
ders, which is virtually inundated, the
allies claim headway. Only in Po'
land, where General4 Won Hinden-
burgh's offensive was halted on the
banks of the rivers flowing between
him and Warsaw, and also in Galicia,
where the Russians were compelled
to call a halt to the advance, is there
almost an entire lull in the fighting.

TWINS JOINED IN WEDLOCK
Bernice and Bertha Elder Come
from Fort Dodge to Marry
Their Chosen Lovers.
BOTH Welded AT SAME TIME

Waited on the wings of love and Great
Western railroad train. came two happy
pairs of human being from Fort Dodge,
Ia. to Omaha, bent on matrimony.
Nels Nelson and Bernice Elder was one
pair and t'other was Dan Dewitt and
Bertha Elder.
Bernice and Bertha are sisters. Not only
that. but they are twin sisters. Bernice
was Elder. Bertha was also Elder. Both
have seen the suns Of eighteen summers
upon this mundane sphere. And while
( both were, inded. Elder" the question
as TO which was the elder is unim-
portsnt being a mere matter of minutes
anyway.
They found their way. or love found the
way to the well-known court house and
eventually filtered into the lair of Mar
riage License Clerk Steubendorf. II was
all over over except writing the licenses
and paying for them and tying tho
knots.
A waggish chap is steubendorf, lulling
the fears of the timid with many jest
and joke while he makes out the papers
He even has jokes posted up by the side
Of the desk. has this INSCRIPTIONS per-
son, so that couples may read and grow
merry and forget the serious business in
hand. And so Mr.. Steubendorf was very
much concerned about the twins.
Now you're sure this is Bernice, are
your he asked of Mr. Nielsen. And.
Don't make a mistake and get the
wrong one he advised Mr.. Dewitt. Each
swain grinned and cast adoring eyes upon
his bride and declared warmly that he
couldn't make a mistake, since there was
no other woman in tho world who poe
sessed a fraction of tho beauty, grace,
intelligence, accomplishments etc, etc.
of his beloved.
And when Mr.. Steubendorf had dissem-
mated good cheer and made out the
licenses and put the 81 in the county's
strong box, the bridegro~ ls called for
the county judge. But Judge Crawford
was on the bench hearing a real estate
case. Snail Cupid be kept waiting by a
mere real estate case? Never.
Just then who should arrive but Justice
Of the Peace Kubat! Yessir, II was none
other than Charlie"
Would he consent to tie the knot? Why,
It was Just like picking six bucks out Of
the pocket of old man Douglas Cocnty
So the popular jurist tied the knots
right up good and tight with neat bows
Now neither Bernice nor Bertha is
Elder. And they took that midnight
train for old Fort Dodge"

No Cushioned Pews
to Be Found in the

The Sunday tabernacle, unlike Solo
mons great temple. is not built without
noise. The big building Is in one con-
tinuous pandemonium OF hammers and
saws.
The rostrum is nearly complete.
"Bnlys' platform is at the very front
of the great rostrum. On each side of It
are built desks for the newspaper men,
enough to accommodate about sixteen.
The great tiers Of steps slope at a
shallow angle upward and backward on
the rostrum. On these steps will be placed
1900 chairs for the choir.
About half of the seats that will ac-
comodate 5000 people in the auditorium
are already in place. wanting only the
mailing on OF the board backs.
The postoffice boxes have been shipped
here from the last scene of n BILLY
Sunday campaign, at Patterson, N. j..

room. The typewriter names of the last
users of the boxes are still on them
There are about 900 separate boxes.
