Electricity and Steam Power- less Apainst the Angry Element. The Oldest Settler is Par- alyzed and Takes a Back Seat. The Climax of the Worst Win- ter of the Decade. The etorm which bas jast yisited Oumaha fs by ell odds the worst experi- enced inthis section of the country for years, and has driven nearly every other theme out of the public mind. It began at 9:30 Friday night with a heavy sleet, accompsnied by a gale from the southeast, the velocity of which was thirty miles per hour, and continued until 1 p. m. Ssturday, when it changed to rain, which was kept up all the afternoon aud all Sat- urday night, the rain freezingas rap- idiy asit fell. The wind changed to the esst yesterdsy morning, and at 7558 m. A EEAVY 8NOW set in, which continued all day, the wind blowing at a uniform velocity of twelve miles, The barometer, which has been very low for several days, mained nesrly statiouary, slowly ris ing about 6 o'clock last might, when it reached 20 85. The pressure has been very low all ovef the country for the past few days, and the barometer did not {adicate any esrly change of weather. The temperature which was 32° all duy yesterday, rose to 36° last night, while the humidity, which hsd been 90 per cent all dsy, rcse to 95, indicating a rainy night, and perhaps two or three more molst days. REMARKABLE RAINPALL. The total precipitation, or amount of eleet, rain and snow fall since 9:30 Friduy night, measured when melted about two and one-guarter inches, or more ihan three times the amoant for the months of Decemberand Janusry. The sleet alone was 1.17 inches. The snow of iteelf, had it boen light, would b.ve made & uuiform coyering of over twelve inches, but being as heavy as lead, it probably averaged in depth about five inches. THE STORM IN GENERAL. Although, owing to the wires being down, no reports were received yes- terday from the east or north, it in probable that the storm extended over the entire northwest, aud was even worse north «f us than here. Weath- or reports received atthe Union Pacific he.dquarters showed that the fall of slest was very beavy, all the way west to North Platte, beyond whech there wes rain, followed by a heavy fall of snow ana high winds. Last evening it was snowing all the way trom Omha to Sidney, and blow- ing terribly, piling the snow in moun- tainous drifts which threaten to seri- ouly obstruct travel. Much the same condition of afairs existed all along the line to Green river, Des Molnes, the only point esst heard from yesterday, reported a snow storm iu progress sivce Satardsy morning. THE BEAUTIFUL SNOW. The sight preseated yesterday wes an uoususl one in this oity. The sleet had wrapped everything in an ice covering which measured five-eighths of sninch in thickness. The boughs of trees were bent down with their weight and many breaking fell with a crash to the ground The myriads of telegraph and telephone wires all over the city resembled buge cables of crys- tal. As the snow fell it was piled in a conical form on wires, boughs and rojections of all kinds, and melting, &., gradually froze agatn below, and draped the sity in millions of yards of lovely fringe, which eparkled as if it were set with diamond: Streets, roofs and_every flat surface were covered deep with snow, and the alr was filled, with the soft flakes which fell slowly, but stesdily, all day lorg, mellowing the atmosphero and muffing sounds of every kind, as if the doom of the world foretold by Mother Shipton was at hand and the earth was being wrapped in its wind ing sheet before being hurled by the comet into its last resting place, the fiery dep'ha of the sun. The streets, almost from the depth of snow snd siush, were deserted by all who could remain in doors and were made more gloomy by the utter ab- sence of all kinds of vehicles and of the street cars whosa runs were aban- doned from Saturday night. RAILROAD AND TELEGRAPH LINES, The street rallway was entirely blockaded by snow and ice which no force of men could have kept clear, and none tried to. Tbe network of wires all over the city began to suffer in the morning. magnr:.-lm went down, the fire slarm wires were broken in several places, and the tele- phone_wires sufiered more heavily than all. Broken wires could be seen everywhere, and forces were set to work making repairs with the first ap- vearance of daylight. Eust aud southall telegraph connections were entirely cut of, while ouly two ‘wires connected Omaha with the rest of the world. Those were by the Western Union t, Cheyenne, all’ oth er wires weet being down between Grand Island snd Keaney. Last night these two wires were kept red ot with m. ssages, a perfect mountain of which was piled up In the Wostorn Union office awaiting transmission Ooe sl the t:‘: s!xh:'l'mnncg:fl us with Chicago une, Denver, Kansas Oity and 8t. Louh." The oth- er was used by the Union Pacific to operate their DELAY OF TRAWNS. The etorm will no doubt delay trsins on all the roads for several days, al- thotgh up to last evening the U. P. freight and passenger trains were mak- ing nearly schedule time. Theoverland: train came in on time, and Saturday's No 3 made North Platte on time. The Rock Island and O., B. & Q trains yesterday miorning were nearly on time, but the Northwestern came in four hours late, and required the sirength of two locomstives from to the Union Pacific transfer. This ed the west-bound Union Pacific train about two hours, as the Northwestern had 247 sscks ef Australisn mall which ehe had to walt for. She finally left with nine loaded cars drawn by en- gines ‘75" and ‘‘216” as far as the summit. The storm west naturally would not affect tralus much before to-day, as the snow did not begin to dritt beavily til last evening. DAMAGE TO BOOFS. The tremendous weight of the snow and sleet caused geveral alarm for the safety of roofs and wooden swaings, and Iaborers were in demand early to Clear them of. It is sud that several firms psid $2 an hour to shovelers. In many places, especlslly on Tenth street, the sheds were propped up for sfety, a they were beuding percoptl- bly beneath fhelr weight. The only | strost. £ stfoll during the day was that o osters paint shop, alarge two- s uilding, belonging to A. N. Ramsay, and situated just to the rear of his livery stabls. "It was a total wreok, but caused no other damage. FLOODING CELLARS, The water got in its work In many places. The basement of the State bsuk was flooded several inches deep. The water broke through the rucf of the Western Unlon office Saturday night and nearly deluged the boys. e basement of Rev. W, A Harsha's residence was flooded and was 50 threatening as to prevent his preaching as usual yesterdsy morning. The new block owned by McOaffrey Bros., on Dodge near Sixteenth, was moistened. A break in the tin roof flooded Hospe's art store and did con- siderable damoge, From an elevated position men could be seen at work with brooms and snow shovels on roofs everywhere, indicating a considerable elevation in the plane of labor in this city. INJURY TO PERSONS. Bat one casualty was reported, a wman in this instauce being knocked down by a faliing bough, as he passed along the sidewalk in front of Mr. H. E. Fosdyke's residence, on North Seventeenth street. Of course a great many were ducked by slips,falls and mis-steps during the day snd evening. MORE MOISTURE. As stated above, the fact that the wires were all dowa 5o that no reports could be received from other points, made It difficult to predict last night what the weather would be in the next fow days, but the low barometer, riring thermometer and dente humid- ity of the atmosphere gave premise of no immediate change, but of twe & three moist deys to come. WHAT TICE SATS. Prof. Tice seems to have hit the nail on the head for once, his predic- tione being from Februsry 2nd to 7th “cloudy, threstening weather with hervy snow storm. Hie predictions for the remainder of the wonth will Dbe interesting in this counection, and aro a8 follows: On the 8th and 9th, clear and fair; 10th to 13, cloudy, threatening weather, with rain or snow; 13th to 14th, clear or fair; 15th t0 18, clouding, threatening weather, with beavy rain or snow; 18th and 20th, clear or fair; 2lst to 24th, cloudiug, threatening weather, with heavy rain or snow storms; 25th and E and quite cold if 28th, clouding, threatening weather, with rain or snow storm: The com- paratively warmer days will be abont the 4th, 10th, 19th, 22d and 28th. The comparatively colder days will be about the lst, 7th, 13th, 17th and 25th, Eartbquakes, in earihgnake countries, will occur about the lst, 8th, 10th, 16th and 25th. As auroras will be on the tncrease this year, they will probably be visivle about the 1st, 7Tth, 13th, 19th avd 25th. THE CATTLE.

The man who makes a ragged patch of dead and decaying underbrush give way to a perfect park, fs the counter- parttoa dentist of the present day, who converts a howling wilderness of blackened snags breeding fowl breath animalculal and discase into a handsome and wholesome mouth, filled with clean shapely aud besutiful teeth. In this conncetion we take pleasure in calling attention to the fact that Dr. A. P. Johnson, in Jacbe' block, hes the Iatest and best improvements in dentistry and aleo has a most cou- venlent and elegant office with mechanical and operating rooms adjoining. The terror of tooth-pull- ing deters many a sufforer from hav- ing tooth wrecks removed, but here nitrous cxide is sdministered, and during a period of complete insensi- bility ths drawing is done, snd the patient awakens and is astonished to find that the work is complete. In mechaical dentistry the young man who is fresh from his s‘ndies knows vastly more in regard to the proper methods for replacing decay and mak- ing artificial dentures than the old fogies who bosst their yesrs of expe- years of experience, but have neglect- ed to keep pace with the astonishing improvements that have been made.
