Show THE AWFUL COLD. I The past three weeks ought to supply a mighty I incentive to railroad men to complete the link which would connect Salt Lake with Southern California. Had it been made when promised, half the city would have rushed away to the Southland during the past twenty days. Even ex- I pectant brides have not been able to dream of I orange blossoms without waking up with a chill. 11 H The scientists tell us that warring constellations are in conjunction nowadays and they all seem to H be busy in brewing cold waves. The only happy H men are the coal men and the plumbers. All oth-H oth-H er classes would be profane if they could, through H the icy air, make their voices heard, and many a H vow has recently been registered that if the daily I forecast, "Clear and continued cold," doe3 not H change soon, the prognosticator will be liable to meet an early death. |
