CY ZEPHYRS AND LITTLE SNOW IN EVIDENCE
THE COLD CONTINUES TODAY
Predictions, However, Say That Temperature Will Moderate by Saturday.
The cold wave which the weather man kindly provided for the delectation of Hoosicrs who think that Christmas would not be he real article unless it Nvere accompanied by icy zephyrs and a little snow arrived in due time. The weather bureau last night gave out a statement to the effect that the cold wave is not traveling very rapidly and it was inferred! from this that the temperature in this vicinity would not modcrate for some hours at least.
At Bismarck, X. D., the temperature was still at 10 degrees below zero last evening, while at Huron, S. D., the thermometer registered 18 below and the zero line extended down into southern Iowa and central Illinois. It was snowing in Chicago and Davenport, la., last evening, but the snow did not amount to much and no blizzards were reported in the West or Northwest.
The Christmas weather here was crimpy enough to satisfy the most exacting. At 7 o'clock yesterday morning {the official thermometer registered 7 dejgifces above zero, at 7 o'clock last evening the mercury stood at 5) degrees above and in the interim the temperature was severe enough at all hours to {bring deep red roses into the cheeks of youth and scarlet blossoms on the nose of age. There was no snow, however, and the small boy who found a sled in his stocking yesterday morning will be forced to exchange it for a pair of skates if he wants to enjoy any winter sport.
The cold wave is said to be moving toward the Atlantic coast and its effect has already been felt away diown South in Louisiana and Florida, for touches of frost are reported from New Orleans and Tampa.
Fair weather is scheduled, and by this evening, the forecast says, the temperature should he modified, although the influence of the cold wave will still be felt. The zero point will probably not be scored by this wave, unless it is greatly reinforced from the Northwest.
FLOURISHED A GUN,
Ed. Greenley, of West Terre Haute, Gave a Wild West Recital Last Night—Was Jailed.
About seven o'clock yesterday word was sent to the police station that a man was at the corner of Fourth and Cherry streets with a loaded revolver and as he was himself loaded, he was liable to decrease the population of that vicinity. Patrolmen Fedderson and Westendorf were sent in response to the call and found a young man named Ed Greenley, of West Terre Haute drunk and flourishing a revolver. When the officers atempted to take the weapon from him he resisted and a lively scuffle ensued. The two young men who were with Greenley said that the pistol contained blank cartridges, and on this information the officers refrained from using violence in disarming the man, Greenley and his three companions were taken to the station, and when the pistol was examined, it was found to contain five 32-calibre cartridges. Patrolman Federson said that if he had known this at the time he was scuffling with the man for possession of the gun, he would have used the club, as it was only a chance that he or Westendorf was not shot by the foolhardiness of the prisoner. Early in the evening Greenley engaged in a fight with a negro and knocked him through a show window of a store room on west Main street. Pali trolman Dor ley arrested the negro, while |S he was on his way to evening roll-call and walked his prisoner to the station.
V* hen he let loose of the negro's arm to open the door, the fellow saw his chknce and was away like the wind. *4ja.trolmen Bishop and Ryle saw the prisoner make his escape, but he ran so fast that they saw it would be useless for them to give chase. Officer ^iis^op says that he could see nothing jjut. "a little streack of coon"' plowing its way through a cloud of dust.
Police Were Remembered. The police department was well remembered by the citizens and last night received another installment of cigars, from different merchants and corporations. The cigars spread last night were with the compliments of Sheriff Fasig, Terre Haute Water Works, Terre ITaute Electric company, Henry Fitzineyer and Mayor Henry C. Steeg. In ^addition to the cigars the mayor remembered the department by presenting each member with a neat black tie.
Manager Barhydt, of the Grand Opera house, was remembered by his employes by being made the recipient of a box of fine cigars and a handsome leather lease. The employes of the New Filbeck Avcre each given money by Mr. and Mrs.-Filbeck, Nick Filbeck, Jr., was the recipient of a pair of beautiful gold cuff-buttons, present from Dave Keifner.

The stick was caught in a wheel and! hurled against his face, fracturing the skull and inflicting a deep gash over his right eye. He never regained consciousness long enough to tell a complete story as to how the accident occurred.

The funeral will be held Sunda v.
HULMAN GAVE PRESENTS.
Mattoon Girl Claimed She was Not Treated Fairly in Guessing Contest—Given a Prize.
On account of a disagreement over the award of a guessing contest prize, the Mattoon division of H. Hulman's store gave two young ladies of Mattoon Christmas presents of $5 each. The women were Lou Owens and Margaret Holliday. The contest was for guessing the number of grains in six packages of coffee. Both ladies guessed the same. They drew for the prize and Miss Holliday won. Miss Owens sued Hulmans for $5, claiming she was not treated fairly. To settle the dispute the Christmas presents were given.
DUANE HONORED.
His Former Assistants Gathered at His Home Yesterday and Gave a Diamond.
William Duane, formerly superintendent of the St. Louis division of the Big Four, but now chief engineer of the St. Louis division of the Frisco was presented with a handsome two carat diamond by men who formerly worked under him. Conductor James Morris and Mayor Fry made the presentation speeches. The presentation took place at Mr. Duane's home in Mattoon.
Two for Safe Keeping.
Lige Ridinger who lives on West Sycamore street, was arrested and sent to jail last night, for safe keeping. Ridinger was celebrating Christmas and had put a little too much expression to it. He and his wife got into an argument and threw a few dishes at each other. His wife asked that he be sent down for safe keeping.
William Armstrong, an expressman, 65 years of age, fell on the side walk yesterday morning, while intoxicated and sustained a slight injury. The patrol wagon was called to take him home, but in the afternoon he ventured out to finish his Christmas exercises. It was about seven o'clock when he was found almost frozen and helpless in a hallway on South Third street, and sent to jail for safe keeping.
Caught Robbing a Car.
An unknown young man was caught breaking in a Big Four freight car near St. Mary's several days ago and had he not had influence with well known people in Paris, 111., lie would have been prosecuted by the railroad company. The conductor of the freight train discovered miscreant in the car?and locked the door to take him to Paris. When he got to Paris the boy had cut a hole in the door almost large enough to unlock the fastening. When turned over to the Paris authorities he protested innocence so srongly and had influential men to back him that he was released.
Delay on Big Four.
Four cars on an extra west bound freight were dfcrailed at Paris yesterday morning, blockading traffic over the Big Four for several hours. The wrecking crew from Mattoon was called to clear the tracks. H,

GOT CHRISTMAS PRESENTS.
William Clark and Floyd Campbell Receive Remembrances from Their Friend Judge Rawley.
There was a brief session of police court yesterday morning, and as a result of the session two guets we^e a-dded to the list of permanent boarders at Lary O'DonnelFs hostelry. Floyd Campbell, the half-witted schoolboy who was caught stealing chickens, pleaded guilty and was given a fine of $5 and sentenced to thirty days in jail. William Clark, who is a sort of a coat-holder for the' "400" of the levee, was charged with having thrashed his sweetheart, Jessie Anderson. He pleaded not guilty, but the evidence was against him and he was convicted. The judge told him that as it was Christmas and as he had been a faithful customer of the court, he would make him a present. He presented William with a thirty-day jail sentence and fined him $20 .and costs. This will keep William in jail until blustery March begins. Flo Gibson, who admitted that she iiad been drunk for six weeks, was fined $1 and costs.
He Didn't Come Back.
"Farmer" Gkxlsey, who was released from jail to attend his brothers funeral, failed to come back, as he had agreed, but instead returned to his old haunts and got drank. The judge ordered him rearrested!, and he will now serve his entire sentence of about three months, without the slightest chance of receiving any more favors from the judge.
