tor of the same road, are in town.
The little furry of snow and wind that
prevailed in st. Paul yesterday afternoon
caused good many to fear that on the
prairie it might be worse, and so cause
another interference with the movement
of the trains. Inquiry at the various rail
road offices removed most cause for fear.
There was some blowing and little furry
of snow out on the Sioux City road, but
it amounted to nothing. Out on the
Breckenridge extension of the Manitoba
road there was also some trouble, but the
managers of the road do not anticipate
any great inconvenience. The Iowa q
Minnesota division of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul road, was blocked
again yesterday and the afternoon train that
started out went up as far as Mendoza,
when it was ordered back.

Prince Napoleon.
London World.

The Napoleons have not been re1gning
house for century, yet Prince Jerome
can display upon occasion an insolence
becoming the descendent of the most an
cient kings. On the theory that aristoc-
racy is organized bad manners, the
prince must be admitted to have quite the
air of the old families. 1t is not rudeness;
a man cannot be rude to a mouse; the
prince is of another order-that
he has caught it to the life. To see him
at his best in this attitude one ought to be
able to go back to the empire when he was
loftily impolite in palaces. In the gloom
of that old place at Meudon, for instance,
(since burned by the Germans or by the
French, for they throw the ball from one
to the other), his isolation used to have
sort of Rembrandtesque effect. AS he
stood there on his own hearth, it was
as though some aggrand1zed figure of the
emperor had stepped from the panel.
With his face and presence he is worthy
of background Of state; he ought to live
in palaces; and in spite of his manners,
he knows how to live in them. He can
be widely generous, especially when the
palace does not clearly belong to him.
There is a beautiful little estate near
Meudon, suspected of being the property
of the nation, which he gave away
to friend in the most liberal fashion.
The friend sold it to an American dentist
during the war. The American dentist by
way of living up to his bargain, got him
self made baron; and there he lives to
this day amid as much barbaric and
feudal pomp as can be bought for money.
There is little uncertainty about his
title-deeds; and if the state chose to be
disagreeable it is believed that it might
give him trouble. He shrewdIy insured
against the risk by lowering his bid for
the bargain.

4 Well Knotcn AdUelettrer Gone to HIS
Last account.
The recent death of a notorious adven-
turer named Denison has brought to light
the fact that the young man was actually
related to the aristocratic family whose
patronymic he always bore, but also re-
wives a whole host of stories which reflect
nothing but discredit upon the scion of
nobility. 1t appears that he was the son
of Lord Londesborough. His father was
a member of the Cunningham family, but
changed his name to Denison on receiving
a legacy. When Lord Londesborough
died, young Denison's mother married
Lord Fitzgerald, between whom and step
children much feeling existed. At eighteen
years of age the young man was required
by his father to enter the army, but this he
refused to do, and ran away to Belgium.
Here he was reduced to such straights that
he was compelled to dispose of all his
personal property, and so, as last resort,
he shipped on a vessel to Philadelphia as
a cabin boy He landed penniless and ac-
cepted employment at picking straWber-
ries. making from ten totweuty-five cents
not last long of course, and he was COM
PEELED to write to his grandfather for
assistance, and was granted an annuity of
e10Ountil he became of age. Then followed
the methods of existance, which gave him
such an unenviable notoriety in Canada
and the states, where he visited most of
the principal cities and reaped Eich
harvest everywhere until at length in each
case he was discovered as deadbeat. In
1881 he returned to England and obtained
some of the private fortune that belonged
to him. While on this visit he received a
document from WEIGH lady recommend
ing him to ali patriotic Welchmen, which
afterwards proved of great value to him.
Shortly after his return to this continent
his means again became exhausted, and in
''roughing it, in the Western states he
contracted pulmonary disease that even
tually took him off. Arriving at Denver he
secured situation as express driver, but
afterwards worked on a sheep ranch.
About year ago, being taken suddenly ILL,
he went to board with a Welchman named
Jones, who cared for him till his death.

Los Angeles Herald, Feb. 16.
One of the most remarkable escapes
from an awful accident which has ever
come within the ken of the writer was
that of Mrs. Matte A. Bridge, the
''daughter of the Odd Fellows" whose
two lectures in this city have been listened
to by large audiences with so much
pleasure. Mrs. Bridge was sitting last
night in her study at Mrs. SCOTS, on
Spring street, when sudden movement of
hers overturned an oil lamp placed on the
table at which she was writing. Papers
surrounded the fair lecturess in most
Bohemian confusion, pair of handsome
lace curtains. separated the lady's study
from her parlor; in fact, inhammable mate
rial surrounded her on every side. Quick
as thought she sliced the now flaming
lamp, and rushed to the parlor door. This
she found that she had locked as precau-
ton against interruption. moment suf-
feed for unlocking it, and the burning
lamp still in her hand, she rushed to the
front door and hurled the instrument of
destruction into the yard. An eye witness
states that the flames from the lamp were
two feet high as Mrs. Bridge carried it in
hand to the door. Fortunately no more
serious results followed than the burning
of the wooden pen holder which Mrs.
Bridge held between her fingers at the
time the accident occurred, the breaking
of lamp, and the consumption of pint
of coal oil. Had it not been for Mrs.
Bridges presence of mind and courage,
the fire laddies would no doubt have had a
splendid run down Spring street, and an
opportunity of playing on a good sized
house afiFe.

Strange attachment bra ptoeou.

A romantic and pretty story is told of a
Saxton's river woman, says q Burlington
(Vt.) correspondence of the Troy Times,
which reads like tale Of the middle ages.
She was recently walking along the high
way when she felt a sudden blow upon the
head, and putting her hand up she caught
a beautiful pigeon which had allighted
there. The bird manifested no desire to
escape, and she took it home with her,
where it attached itself constantly to her
person, following her everywhere, and
never content unless she was petting it.
Soon after the lady was taken sick, and for
long time lay hoYering between life and
death. All this while the pigeon perched
upon her bedstead, and would not leave
her night or day. At last the fever turned,
and the faithful bird manifested every
symptom of delight at the returning health
of his mistress, nd even aided her recovery
by his human-li solicitude. The bird is
now the pet of the household, and tie
family look uJon its coming as almost
providential. 1t is to be hoped that no
Sunday-breaking sportsman will end its
life.

Troy, n. Y, Feb. 23.-According to the
story of poor but industrious family
named CLARK, they are the rightful owners
of nearly 100000 acres ofland upon which
portion OF the city of Ottowa, Ont, now
stands. The property is valued at &c.
100000, and after thirty years. delay they
have found two Montreal lawyers who, for
one-half the estate, viii endeavor to re-
cover all of it. The alleged heirs in this
city declare that other claimants in Roch-
ester and Brooklyn and in several states
outside of this have combined to assert
their title. It is related that the original
owner of these broad acres died intestate,
and the settlement of his affairs in the
English courts has been delayed for thirty
years by increased complications. The
family appear sincere in their assertions,
which, naturally, are not given much
weight.
