To-night and to-morrow will be warmer, with probably overcast skies and rising temperature, which, in the opinion of Forecaster Scarr, will bring snow. The intense cold caused much suffering throughout the city, and two deaths, that of an infant, and of Rob- ert Wilson, a “Man of Mystery,” at No, 167 Forsythe street. ‘This, the second real super-frapped cold snap of this winter, came into town last night on the heels of an area of low barometric preasure which decided to move out to sea off Hat- teras and make room for Jack Frost, who has been up in the Northwest, where temperatures have dropped as low as fifty-six below.
