Denver Special.

Denver Special.
A dispatch was received from Silverton to-day,
the first that has been sent out of that snow
bound camp for the past three weeks. Hereto
fore the wires have been down, and the constant
ly recurring snow-slides have made itimpossible
to keep them up. The real extent of the storm
in Silverton and the surrounding towns could
not before be obtained. The telegram from
there to-day says that the storm set in on Feb, 2,
and ragged furiously, with snow and wind, al
most without cessation until the 18th, when the
weather changed to calm and cold, and the force
Of the storm was spent. "When the storm abated

wires were Frustrated, thus cutting us off entire

state we have remained for two weeks. For the
past two weeks we have been out of coal and
coal-oil, sugar, milk and soap, and there was
weak supply of other necessaries. Stock of all
kinds came near starving owing to the eX-
haustion of hay and grain. One firm, which
luckily happened to have supply of hay on
hand when the siege commenced, raised the
price to 800 ton, and at that price even the
best fed horses in the place were put on one
fourth rations Some of our supplies were sent
to Red Mountain and neighboring points, where
they were needed in order to prevent absolute
starvation. These supplies were taken in on
snow-shoes from the points where the railroad
was bloekaded. We have had no mails since the

He then told how he became a Christian. His
father was a Buddhist but Sau Ahbrah had two
sisters who were Christians and at five years Old
he was taken into mission school, Tins mis-
siona1y was Mr.. Thomas, of New Hampshire,
who had come to the little Burmese village and
when seen by Ahbrah was eating his breakfast
which he had Just cooked. Il was about five
years Old he said land it is not fashionable in
my country to wear clothing at that age The
Christian rel g on makes woman more than
mere slave, it elevates her TO equality with her

from my village to RangOOn, from which place /

woman singing i'll my language your Home,
Sweet Home Swinging in a hammock beside
the light bamboo hut of that country was her
baby, and the song went ON. She was happy
Christian mother for in Burmah no woman not
Christian could sing it in that way
Sau Ahbrah then sang Home, Sweet Home
in his own language and in good voice, and as
the Burmese is a monosyllabic tongue and mu-
steal, the song was beautiful
In taking up the collection Mr. Mabie spoke Of
the great work done by Baptist missions. There

preachers, and, during the last year. there were
nearly ll.000 converts, making total of con
verts by the mission Of l02, 145. This is but one
of not less than seventy societies that are now
doing the Lords work in the conversion of the
world.
Tonight he will lecture on Burmah and the
Burmese, and illustrate his subject with appro-
pirate costumes and other accessories.

to interrogatories in his libel suit he
makes a contemplate effort to &C
quire political capital by saying he
has reason to believe that the tomb
of his first born was defaced by the

Gratis. This dirty fling is charac-
teristic of a pusilanimous dema-

ward at once to Mr.. Julius Levin,
Alexandria. All articles must be
numbered and a list of same sent
to the State Commissioners at New
Orleans, on or before the 18th of
October, that application may be
made for transportation. We have
but a short time to prepare for the
Exposition, and the necessity for
having the articles on hand, is
readily seen by all citizens, and
now we ask that the exhibits will
be forwarded at once. Parties
sending articles that they wish re-
turned them after the Exposition,
will please accompany said articles
with letters of Instructions.

In the upper river Towns the
people are crying aloud for steam
boats to bring them their freight,
which is greatly needed just now.
These same folks are of the opin-
ion that they should have their
goods, despite the low water, and
are kicking against the Red River
and Coast Line Company. Now,

the gentlemen who compose this
iirft class institution are doing and
have done all that is possible for
their patrons. To these same peo-
pie we would say: gentlemen, you
can not expect steamboats, to run
on dry land, neither can they fly
through the air, or be transported
on wheels. Wait and the boats
will arrive at your wharves, and
bring you your merchandise. 1t
may look one-sided and unjust,
but then the Red River and Coast
Line are not to blame in this in

SAVE THE OIL.
What is the Matter With the Grand
Old Party? Echo Answers Ohio.

The Republicans arranged to hold meet
ing last night at their headquarters on jack
son street. and speakers were engaged for
the occasion. The speakers were there, but
the people did not come out to hear them.
When the representative of the GLOBE reached
the place of the meeting, at fifteen minutes
of s. the time the meeting should have been
in full blast no one was present but the
gentleman who dusts the chairs and sweeps
out the cigar stumps and things, and three
other persons, including one of the
speakers. The oil lamps burned low and the
scene was dismal in the extreme. 1t was
proposed TO blow out the oil lamps and go
home, but one of the other gentlemen
thought it would be better to wait a little and
possibly some one else might come in. Act
ing upon the last suggestion the melancholy
quartette waited, but it did no good. A few
more stragglers entered the room and all
waited little longer, when the speaker in
sisted upon it that they could not get enough
together TO talk to, and SO they put out the
lights and left. This is the beginning and
ending of that great Republican gathering.
There seems to be something in the news
from Ohio and Virginia that does not enthuse
the members OF the Republican party to any
great extent
