Butte, Colorado, states that = snow
storm has been raging there for several
days, which for severity has never be-
fore been equalled in that region. The
snow is now five feet deep on the level,
and in the bottoms it has drifted to q
depth of anywhere from ten to fifty
feet. The whole Elk Mountain region
is virtually showed under. Business is
wholly suspended, and the entire popu-
lation is kept busy shoveling the snow
away form their doors SO that they may
not be smothered in their houses.
Some cabins in the outskirts Of the
place are entirely showed in, the peo-
pie moving into the more elevated por-
tons of the town.

Fort Dodge military reservation j.
occupied BY Hon R. N. Wright, who i.
employed BY the government as keepe,
at small salary. Mr.. Wright has
built fence around the reservation
tract and has expended altogether abou,
$4,000 in this improvement and the i'm
provement of the building grounds. 1t
is customary for Mr.. Wright to enter
tain distinguished visitors to Dodge
City BY giving them the hospitality Of
hrs home, thus keeping up the custom
adopted BY the army officers. When
Senator Ingalls, and the newspaper men
we're here they were taken to the fort
and gwen a supper at Mr.. Wright's
house. When a gang Of hungry edi-
tors were her, few weeks ago they
were also cordially invited to Mr..
Wnghts house at the fort and were
treated to the Injuries his table is gen.
orally supplied with. One of these
editorial visitors, hungrier, and per-
haps with more gall, has taken advan-
tage of the courtesy and hospitality,
and is trying to turn his visit to profit
able account His name is Blair and
he is publishing little sheet down in
Stafford county. He is securing names
to petition asking for the appointment
of keeper-of-the-Fort, in place of
Mr.. Wright. Now, Mr.. Blair has q
perfect right to make the application
for the position but he is not entitled
to the place. There are others who
have better claims than he, but who
would never abuse kindness or hospi-
tality to obtain the coveted place. The
rich viands and wines Blair INDUCED at
Mr.. Wright's table he thought were
furnished by the commissary and quar-
termasters departments, but unfortu-
nately for Blair, should he get the place,
he would be unable to keep up the
reputation for hospitality enjoyed by
Mr.. Wright, who is his own commissary
and quartermastcr.

IRRIGATION in India.

The system of irrigation now in use
in the Madras Presidency is on vast
scale, a record though imperfect, Of
the tanks of II cultivated districts
showing them to amount to $4,000 in
repair and 10000 out of repair, or
$4,000 in all The length of embark
ment required for each may be esti-
mated on a moderate calculation At
half mile, and the number of masonry
works in irrigation sluices, waste weirs,
and the like may be taken to be at
least six. The embankments alone for
all these tanks would extend over 3d.
600 miles, while the total number of
separate masonary works are at least
800, 600. The most remarkable fea-
tare about this gigantic system is that
it is entirely Of native origin, not one
new tank having been made by Euro
peans; and, according to all accounts,
there must be good many equally fine
works which have been allowed to fall
into decay. According to the Tropical
Agriculturists, the revenue dependent
on existing works is roughly estimated
at $50 lakhs.

THE CHRISTMAS TREE.

The entertainment in the opera
house Christmas eve was largely at
tended, the hall being density packed
with men, women and children, all de.
lighted with Christmas anticipations.
The affair was under the management
of the Knights of Pythias, a secret
order having benevolent tendencies,
and increasing numerically and in infu-
eace. The hall was finely decorated,
the magnificent Christmas trees, BRILL
antly lighted and heavily loaded with
choice presents, added a fine effect to
the gorgeous occasion. The entertain
ment consisted of singing and recita-
tons. The opening piece by the
Knights in full uniform was grand.
Elder Collins delivered fine prayer,
which was favorably commented upon
on account of its appropriateness.
Mayor Deger made short address
which was to the point. His address
was referred to in the most pleasing
terms. The Male Quartette (The Big
a sang with the Tide" and this part
of the programme was highly compli-
mented. The Big 4 are excellent
choristers and are winning golden epin-
ions from our people. Jessie Kelsey
recited Little Bennie'' with a good
appreciation. A duett-O'er Hill
and Dale,-by Misses Mullendore and
Carnahan was very pleasing, and elicit
ed applause. The Glover of the
Family" was a we'll executed piece of
deception. A recitation by Miss Grace
Mullendore was charming. A chorus
by a number of children under the
charge of Mrs. Mcintyre was an enter
tanning part Of the performance, SO ex-
pressed by many present. The male
quartette rendered another fine piece of
music-Dancing Ger the Wave. This
was excellent. Recitation Of Beauti-
full Snow by Miss Rosa Gyles was fine
effort. Another sweet chorus by the
added spice and interest to the
occasion. Poe's Bells by A. Bennett
was well executed. The male quartette
closed the programme with "Children
Welcome Tonight" Then Santa
Claus appeared, being ushered in by a
bevy Of children under the charge of
Miss Ida Norvell. This feature Of the
nights performance was becoming in
tensely interesting. L. C. Hartman as
Santa Claus, performed his part in
truly dignifed Santa Claus style. Then |
the distribution Of presents took place. |
Over four hundred magnificent presents,
valued at nearly 81, 500, and ranging
u price from five cents to twenty-five
iollars, were distributed to the eager
'nd expectant crowd of happy men,
women and children. The knights Of
pythias had obtained 200 presents for
which were distributed after
he other presents were disposed of.
This affair speaks volumes for the truly
,ood character Of Dodge City. Imag-
ne 700 people density packed in hall.

AT THE CATHOLIC CHURCH.

this morning was composed of j. s.

son Miss Carnahan. The excellent mus.
ic added to the interest of the service
and the importance of the sermon
Father Vonderlage delivered a short
sermon and referred to the birth Of
Christ He spoke of the time, manner
and condition of the birth of the Saw.
Jour. He said his humility. self-de-
MED and poverty Of spirit were worthy
of emulation. He said the Saviour
was born in poverty, in a cold bleak
stable, under distressing conditions, to
teach US humility and self-denial.
From this poor and humble birth we
night learn to regard poverty and hu-
mility with becoming grace. He said
the majority of mankind were mistaken
about the wealth o. the world. Wealth
did not consist in riches, but in humble
ness and humility. The birth, life and
character of Jesus Christ was for our
emulation and for our good. The kind
appropriate remarks of the reverend
gentleman found favor in the hearts OF
the congregation. "A number of citi.
