The GREAT Snow STORMS IN THE WEST
The Cheyenne Leader of January "a says: "The
weather has been so severe at Sherman within
the past three DAYS that tie men employed to
clear the road could not be kept at their work
more than few minutes at time. Neither
money, threats, persuasion nor revolvers would
avail to keen them out. The wind blows hur-
ricane all the time, and the thermometer ranges
at from ten to twenty degrees below zero. If
The wind would snbside, it is the opinion of rail-
road men that the road could be opened in
twenty-lour hours" AT Cheyenne, on Tuesday
afternoon, the wind suddenly rose to a tempest
The air was densely filled with snow, which
whlrled and twisted in all directions So dense
was the mass of snow fakes in the air, and SO
powerful and irresistible the wind, that one
could not see yard in advance, even on the
sidewalks, where the streets are sheltered by a
continuous row Of buildings person was
liable to be lost in the most familiar localities
and some citizens who happened to be out losi
their way within half a block OF their own
houses, one lady becoming bewildered when al
most inside her own dooryald. The children al
the public school had to be taken TO their homes
as it would have been utterly impossible 70
them TO have made their way alone through the
storm. This terrible squall continued until al'
ter midnight. The morning was one of the
coolest ever experienced in the city, the mercu.
ry indicating twenty degrees below zero.

Certain people, chiefly Pennsylvanians, have
attempted to organize movement to secure an
amendment of the national constitution which
shall affirm the existence and government of
God. The constitution already assumes even
more than this by appealing TO justice, estab-
fishing the OATH and concluding with the dec
laration that 1t was "done in convention, = that
is, framed and signed Sin the year OF our Lord
one thousand seven hundred and eighty seven !"
Here is a recognition, not only of God, but of
Christianity, also, in the words year of our
Lord So long as we do not mean TO establish
either theocracy or a state religion, this will
be enough for sensible people. The movement
to which We refer is nowise likely to accom-.
plish much. We have supposed those engaged
in it 10 be good, well meaning persons but this
opinion of them is somewhat shaken by the fact
that they put the names of Gov. Washburn, OF
Massachusetts,, and Gov. Jewell, of Connecticut,
to their last call for Convention" without the
knowledge or consent OF these gentlemen who
are both opposed TO their movement.
The gift for a city hospital of lot of land of
ample size, in a central yet quiet and attractive
place, is timely aud graceful benefaction. The
giSer, George Jaques, Esq, has not now for the
first time proved himself to be public spirited
and generous citizen. Two or three years ago
he offered TO the city land of great value for a
public park, but annexed to the gift were condi-
tions imposing obligations which the city au-
thorties OF that time did not think it wise to as
sumo. HIS excellent taste, sound learning and
faithful discharge of every responsibility have
also been of great service TO the public in official
stations, whose demands are as high as those of
any municipal office, and whose labors are I'M
requlted, except by the consciousness of being
useful and the gratitude of the comparatively
few who see and appreciate their value. The
reasons why Mr.. Jacques benevolence took
the direction of providing site for
a city hospital are effectively set forth in
his letter TO the city government. The site has
many attractions and probably none in all re-
spects more eligible could be found within the
city limits. lis value is not less than forty
thousand dollars. The conditions annexed TO
the gift are not onerous, and are such only as are
essential to the carving ont of the teneiCent
purposes of the eiver and the discharge to the
best advantage of what the city has already rec
ognized as a municipal duty. No charity has a
stronger claim upon benevolent citizens of
large means than the endowment of hospital.
Its influences are wholly sautary, and the
amount Cf suffering it may relieve and of good
it may accomplish is inealcuablc, There is Of
course no doubt that this gift will be gratefully
accepted by the city, and that, within the time
limited, a commodious building, fitted and
equipped in the best manner for its humane
purpose, will occupy this beautiful and conven-
lent site.
