dogs in search of the festive quail.
When the oldest inhabitant was
asked yesterday as to the date of
the severest weather Americas has ex-
perienced in the last quarter of a
century, he took from his safe a
photograph bearing the date of Feb.
l3, 1899, which told the solid, icy
truth. At that time a large orna-
mental fountain stood in the open
plaza at the rear of the postoffice
building, and the photograph, made
by Prof, Van Ripper, shows the foun-
tain ice-coated from top to bottom.
The water froze as long as the 'foun-
tain ran that night, forming ice six
|inches in thickness. The three basins
were frozen solidly over, and an in
