About 5. or- 6 Inches of snow fell Sunday afternoon and evening, the most snow of the winter at any out time so far. A strong and variable wind made the storm very disagreeable and the snow is badly drifted. Today looks dark enough for more snow and a light mist fell and caused a light coating of sleet over everything this morning. Mrs. Charlotte' George is in receipt of a letter from her sister, Mrs William Teagarden, of San Antonio, Tex., in which she tellft visit in that city on Feb. Ist and 2nd of the “Miss Ananias” company, in which Augustus Phillips is the leading man. The a great hit in that city and Gus came in for a great amount of newspaper praise. Mrs. Teagarden entertained him while there and he stated that San Antonio was one of the most beautiful cities he hatT ever visited. John Bruner has rented the Robihson property now occupied by Ed Kirk and family, it is understood, and will move there shortly. The house Mr Bruner and family now occupy, which is the L H. Myers property on Cherry street, will be occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Harry Jacobs, who now live in the J. T. Randle property. It has been rumored that the Randle property will be occupied by Hon. Jesse E. Wilson and family, who will come here from Washington, D, C., soon after March 4th, but we are informed that arrangements to rent the house by Mr. Wilson have not been made. The strike condition in Gary remains unchanged, except that both strikers and their employers have set out on what looks like a long struggle. Determined to get away from the influence of the unions and to support the “open shop” condition in all trades the Gary contractors’ association has opened up' an employmeut bureau at 462 State street in Chicago and many non-union men were expected to start work this morning. No further riots nor resorting to violence were reported up to Saturday night and suspects had been arrested by detectives for former attack' on non-union workmen. Both sides are preparing for a long struggle. W. V. Porter and Delos Thompson arrived home Sunday afternoon from their Florida trip. They spent considerable time at Jacksonville, where Louie Fendig is engaged in the real estate business and went hunting out of that town for Jack snipe and quail but did not find them so numerous as they had been lead to believe they .would be before they went there. They took a guide and a cook and spent five days on a deer hunting trip about one hundred and twenty-live miles below Jacksonville. They caught sight of several deer but owing to the thick growth of palms they found It very difficult to get a shot at them. They got one, however, and had venison steak at the hotel for a week after returning to Jacksonville The temperature in Florida was tine, ranging from 80 to #O. Altogether they had a very fine trip.
