sonaIs.
a formal announcement, under date of
the 18th, has been issued by General Man
ager Hill, of the appointment of Mr..
Charles E. Furness as land commissioner
of the St. Paul Sc Manitoba company vice
Mr.. D. A. McKinslay, resigned. The ap-
pointment of Dir. Furness dates back to
about December l, but he did not fully
enter upon his duties until yesterday.
The weighing of mails carried by the
railways, for determining the compensa-
ton to be allowed the companies, now in
progress, will be continued for thirty
days, and the pay will be based upon the
average daily weight of that time.
Our railroad men have never had to
contend with worse winter season. The
snow would be enough even if the tenn
perature was mild, but when to the drift
ing snow is added temperature of ten to
twenty degrees below zero, the difficulty
of operating roads is fairly discour-
aging Trains are delayed in every
direction and roads in the prairie country
are only kept open by persistent labor
and heavy expense. In the West, South
| west and South counties of the State, and
in Northern and Western Iowa. there is
not great amount of snow to the acre,
but what there is, is daily in motion,
hunting for railroad cuts, which it gen
orally finds, and no sooner is it hoisted
from one cut, than 1t is blown back or
swept into another. At Omaha and
SiouxCity it was showing again yesterday
morning AS it depends upon what
hour the inquiry is made, it is useless to
report what roads were open or closed yes
terday. All that can be said to hold
good for a few hours, is that there's
trouble on all the roads, though very little
on the Northern Pacific, and not much
on the St Paul and Manitoba The East
tern lines are operated with daily delays,
and the southern and western lines, IN
the prairie country, are liable to snow
blockade at any time day or night. It's
tough work for the railroad men, 'but
spring is coming.

The Carnival at Nice.

A private letter from Nice says: '.The first
 day of the carnival here was just perfect. In
 company with some other young people in
 the hotel we hired private omnibus to drive
 us about, so that we might see the fun to ad-
 vantage, and be able to join in the 6at1ille des
 fe't7s.' We reached the Promenade des Anglais the road by the sea-where there are large
 hotels and villas, and where all the world went
 yesterday afternoon at about 2 o'clock We immediately fell into of the two long ranks of carriages which drove at rather . slow pace up and down the promenade had
 capital seat by the driver on the box, and
 was perfect butt for bouquets The road and houses were decked with flags, and some
 of the carriages almost covered with flowers
 One lady was lying back on cushions of violets, and in one case the harness and edge of the carriage were bordered witL scarlet anemones Prizes of several hundred francs were given for the most tastefully decorated carriages Not many dominoes were to be seen, but the pavements were closely packed with peo- pie on chairs. Windows and seats of any kind, as well as standing room fetch fabul- ous prices and I believe it is impossible to secure any kind of vehicle. We all took or bought flowers to pelt with. After few turns up and down the promenade in order that peo- pie might have time to admire the lovely bouquets, the fun began in earnest, and be- fore long waxed fast and furious. I got liter ally pelted with roses and violets. Every one became a child for the time and it was per fectly delightful A hot, sunny afternoon, driving up and down by the blue sparkling sea, surrounded by crowds of merry, laugh ing faces with lap full of flowers and pleas ant, genial companions, you cannot think how nice it was. At o'clock it began to cool, and we turned off into the town and half drove, half walked back sshome. This after noon we went to hear the military band play ing in the public garden linear to us-a gay and bright scene; people of all nationalities lounging about and wandering in orange groves and under palm-tre listening to ax- oo1la,,t ,oucio

 The Count and his Rival,


 Neapolitan society has lately been much exercised by terrible tragedy in high life" For some time past the Countess del Cieno. A lady of extraordinary beauty, had been noto- rlously at odds with her husband, A gentle man to whom she had, at the urgent instance or ner family, most unwilingly given her hand, her heart having been already bestowed upon a young Austrian artist, who quilted europe for America on the day of her mar rage only returning thence to Naples few weeks ago He became it would appear. a frequent guest at the Countess evening re- ceptions-a fact which reached the ears of Count del Cigno at his club, where he spent the greater part of his time, by night as well as by day One evening just as the painter was Issuing from the doorway of the Palazzo del Clgno, the Count drove up to the chief entrance, and, while alighting from his car rlage noticed his wife on the first floor bal cony, waving her hand in farewell to her old lover as he descended the stone steps leading to the street. Without a moments besite, ton the Count drew stiletto from the breast pocket of his coat and buried it to the hilt in the bosom of his rival, who fell, mortally wounded, to the ground As Del Cigno was getting into his carriage however, a bullet from the Austaian's revolver, fired as it were 5n ertrenats, passed through his head, killing him on the spot. Five minutes later the artist also breathed his last. This horrible encounter took place under the very eyes of the Countess, upon whom the spectacle of her husbands and lovers violent death in hlcted so overwhelming shock that she be- came ravlng maniac, and is now under re- straint ina lunatic asylum near Naples

Spirits for the Ladies.


 A well known firm in Totten ham, court road for some time past have been very anx- ious to procure license to serve the two or three hundred lady customers who lunch daily in their establishment with spirits, wine and beer. At present they can only supply tea, coffee and similar beverages. much, it would seem, to the dissatisfaction of 'their numerous lady customers, who for 20 years past have unanimously been pressing their claims upon them" for wine, beer and spir- it's To meet the demands of these thirsty ladies, application was made yesterday to the St. Pancras licensing authority, but it met with peremptory and decisive refusal Sir W.

African Exploration.

The Austrians seem determined to outdo by one grand effort all other nations in the matter of African exploration. Dr. Holub, who recently returned from several years work on the Zambesi, goes out in two months to the Cape, from which he purposes to make his way straight northward to the mouth of the Nile. Dr. Holub has been ceaselessly busy since his return, going from one city to another exhibiting his collec- tions, giving lectures and rousing practical interest in his forthcoming expedition While he will give prominence to scientific explora- ton, he will also attend to the inter- ests of trade, especially with reference to his own country. An Austro-Hungarian society has been formed, to which he will send his collections, with detailed instructions. The principal commercial houses which compose this society intend to give the Doctor varied
