Wharton Not Responsible For Snowy Weather Prophecy
The weather prophet J. R. Wharton insists he bears no blame for last night’s heavy snow and slushy streets. He notes he has many friends among the Odd Fellows and would have lifted the barometer above the street railway building if Jupiter could be blamed, while old Boreas rumbled through the valley with a wintry concert.

Sunday Closing Law Not Enforced In County Affairs
Chief Deputy Yancey states Sunday closing laws are effectively a dead letter and will not be enforced against legitimate theaters. He says the law targets questionable venues only and does not intend to shut down legit playhouses, though concert halls and venues employing women will close every day. The county attorney’s office aims to avoid discredit by misinterpretation of the statute.

Chaffee Heroics Lead to Halo of Romance
The wounded man is saved under heavy Indian fire as Chaffee and a small force crawl to aid him. Troops stop fighting to cheer, Chaffee rages for work to resume, and two cavalry companies reinforce to hold the line. Chaffee is brevetted and later a commission, while he dismisses hero tales as exaggeration.
