But then n blizzard is an u~uspeakably
mean thing. Obi it is so mean.
No one ever thinks of a blizzard with
out apologizing mentally for touching
upon o Lase a subject.
What the cayote is TO the hunter, the
freighter, the cowboy and the miner.
the blizzard is 10 the average citizen.
The blizzard ranks about as high in
meteorology as does the skunk in TO-
ology.
A blizzard is more d~esp.cably mean
than a louise ON a dead Ute.
Tall Of asafgtida, ripe Limburger
Do you catch our idea Of a blizzard?
Now let some photographer give it a
proper name.
And then a blizzard is the only thing
known To history or science that will
blow thirteen ways ut once.
1t describes II course precisely like a
Scotch plaid.
You turn from u direct line-to the
lee way-Of the fierce wind in order 10
catch a good square breath; and the
blizzard Is there too.
II catches you ON the point of exha-
lation, just a your lungs are an im-
mems vacuum.
You mouth is open, of course, and
the blizzard suddenly fills you so fun OF
wind hat nothing but u heavy con
science prevents you from soaring aIoft
at once like "A balloon.
You feel miserable; and tighter'n i
base drum.
You want 10 swear but you haven't
time.
Your only relief is To strain the biz.
zard through your fingers.
An ordinary wind is manly and will
not attack the snow when it is down.
But the blizzard, like a coward, finds
that to he its best opportunity.
II will belabor the poor snow and
scatter each particular snowflake oveI
several square feet Of surface-more OF
less. And it will deluge You with
snow while not n bit is falling from the
clouds.
A blizzard is the only institution base
enough TO sweep particles of ice from
the ground and throw them in your
face.
Then you experience Il sensation sim.
liar to being shaved with n file.
A blizzard can wreck fine weather in
fifteen seconds. The sun may be shin.
ing serenely On the pure, innocent
snow, and in ten seconds you're encir-
cled in II now drift, blinded, s~nffocated
and worried worse than you expect to
be in the forthcoming world.
A blizzard drives cattle OF tie
ranges; turns back teamsters; hope
lessly loses pedestrians; blinds every,
body; makes life outdoors u mockery,
and always comes without the slightest
p~rovocation.
All this, and more, is the blizzard.

The sun will be partially eclipsed to-

The public gardens of Paris have suffered 1 severely from the unusually cold winter. The
 conifers especially, the cedars of Lebanon and
 various rare kinds of pines have been almost
 wholly lost. The pawlownias, the magnolias,
 the rhododsndrons the yuccas and twenty | other kinds of plants that adorned the gardens of the Chanps- -Elysees have been frozen to death. The extent of the damage done may be judged from the fact that in the Champs Eysees alone more than 10, 900 trees and l shrubs have been wholly or partly killed More than 100, 900 trees and shrub, will be required in the Bois de Boulogne to fill up the gaps that the frost has caused. The damage done in all the public gardens and parks of Paris has been estimated at million of francs In this sum no allowance has been made for the trees along the boulevards or for the gardens which belong to the State, as for instance, the gar dens of the Tuileries, and of the Luxembourg. and the Jardin dss Plantes. Moreover, the loss cannot be estimated in money. A million represents the amount that would have been realized If ths State had sold the trees and shrubs. But in point of fact one cannot re

Typographical errors are always exaspsra ting and sometimes funny. Both exasperating and funny was one in the New York Times of Sunday. In speaking of the trustees of Yale College the Times was made to say ''Eleven of the 19 trustees are clergymen, whose or thodoxy has been called in question. Among the number are President Porter himself, the Rev. Leonard Bacon, the Rev. T. D. Woolsey, the Rev. o. E. Daggstt, of Hartford, and the Rev. George J. Tillotson, of Wethersfeld."
