The accounts of the Stow blockades on
the Central and Union Pacific Railroads
would seem to indicate that they are en-
joying monopoly of this accompaniment
of winter in the West. All the trains that
left San Francisco for three days were
compelled to halt before the immense
drifts that had piled themselves up on the
road through the valley OF the Humboldt,
and in like manner westward-bound trans
were detained at the eastern limit of the
snow-bound region The distance thus
cmbargoed was one hundred and sixteen
high winds rendered futile all efforts to
reopen these cuts, where laborers were
employed with shovels, the driving winds
filing in the openings as rapidly as they
could remove the snow The force of the
storm also has been so great as to pack
the drifts SO tightly as to defy the utmost
power that could be brought to bear to
force the ponderous snow-ploughs through
them. Fifteen of the most powerful en-
gines owned by the company were united
behind a plough, and the distractions
were thus assailed by this immense power
reinforced by momentum of thirty miles
an hour, but it was like bucking against
bank of sand The huge nose of the
plough would bury itself in the solid mass
of snow, and with shock almost equal to
the collision of two trains, the long train
of locomotives would come to standstill.
These repeated assaults finally resulted in
making an opening, however, and the
track was cleared with the aid of several
hundred men. The passengers meanwhile
accepted the situation and made them
selves as comfortable as possible.

Two lovers by mOsS-grOWn spring;

How Warm Spring Indian Fulfilled
Promise.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb 10. During
the early part of the year, two residents
OF Boston met here band of Warm Spring
Indians and obtained of them several me-
mentoes, and also the promise to send
them a scalp on their return. The Warm
Spring band, it will be remembered were
the captors of the Modoc murderers, and
the captor of Captain Jack himself was
the one who gave the promise to send

Snake Indian, but was himself killed and

A Novel Free Pass.

Suncook, n H., from Sherbrooke, ?. q.
He had travelled the whole distance on a
free pass of his manufacture, which
obtained currency from the natural SYM
pathy which even the knights OF the cou-
pom and the punch have for poverty, when
coupled with infirmity. He constructed a
wooden leg from white ash, and with
cushioned socket to receive the knee,

a pass, but at intervals in the days jour

pity drew from willing pockets. At Con-
