GEO. JEFFERY Miller, S. D. Herman hearers, soft coal, and best stove of the kind in the market at I>. P. Creeks 89tf Another strange freak in the weather was noticed last week. Christmas ushered in aeoldwave over the eastern half of this country. In New England it was a howling blizzard of snow, In the middle west it was cold and wind. Bight here at Miller seemed to be about the western edge of the wave. St. Paul re ports 10 below, Winnipeg 30 be low, while eastern Kansas aud Oklahoma had 5 below zero. At Miller, many miles north, the thermometer went about 6 or 7 below at night, for a short time, then quickly rose to 30 above, while the cold wave passed on to the east, so that it was consid erably colder in states several hundred miles south of us than it was in South Dakota. Thanks for welcome calls for the past fltweuty one years, arid invite you all to remember me the new year. With hearty good wishes for a happy and prosperous new year to all. | i .D.
