The Wind HIlrzard.

The most severe wind blizzard hat has
visited Cheyenne for many months, If not
for years, struck the city about IL o'clock
on Monday night and ragged with una
bated fury until about 6 O'Clock last ever
ing, when it abated somewhat, but later
on it revived again and blew at a pretty
brisk rate for the greater part of the time
last night. Although no serious damage
was done by the wind, yet III many in-
stances signs were displaced or blown
down, vehicles which we're standing in
exposed places were sent whirling away,
and in one or two instances slightly dam
aged, coal houses and other small build
ings were partially %unroofed, hats were
scattered pell nell, and the air was filed
with dust and pebbles to an unusual
extent Cheyenne has not known a more
severe wind storm for n long time.

The colored man and brother was in
attendance last evening at the Second
Baptist church to listen to the debate on
the question whether a Democratic ad-
ministration would aid the colored race
more than the Republican. The judges
who were to decide this momentous ques-
ton occupied seats of honor in the front
pews. In the affirmative appeared Messrs.
T. Ashford and d. d. Moore. and in the
negative Messrs. c. Cushcnberry, NJ. W.
Moore and C.. A. Brown. The chairman
read the question at issue, and the dis
putants were let loose Mt each other and
talked until time was calle1, each man
being allowed fifteen minutes to free his
mind THE LEADER reporter took a back
seat and stayed as long as he dared, The
arguments in the Affirmative were very
cogent, but the political complexion of the
judges left little doubt which way they
would decide.

i1oia hhi9aN Wy lhntosl
1 once knew intimately two violinists.
One had a wrist like a steel spring in
its strength and fexibility. His fingers
were supple and strong. He could not
produce a bad toni If he tried. He
played easily and almost without effort,
and to me his playing was the most ex-
quisitely beautiful | remember to have
heard. Still he had not taken the
pains to study any particular school
systematically and he was never al
lowed by professionals to possess any
merit. The other had a stiff wrist and
clumsy fingers. He used his wrist, of
course, but his bowling in rapid pass
ages was never distinct and his execu-
ton while exactly according to Spohr
was moro for the eye than the ear.
Yet he was the pet and pride of pro-
fessionals and consequently Of the
critics.
l have frequently sat through an
opera lear professionals. heard moth
ing about beauty, but much of how GER
tain tones were placed" and ''ejected, -
whether they came from the throat or
the roof of the mouth or the chest.
Perhaps | am not up to the tension OF
culture required to understand art, but
l cannot admit that means are greater
than ends. l can not forget that method
which does achieve beauty is less ad-
mirablo than beauty without method.
The fault is not confined to musicians.
In painting, the drama, literature, re-
ligion and decorative art we hear moro
of schools than of essential beauty. All
criticism is ~pervaded by this mechanical
Judgment. 1t strikes me hat we ought
to be more concerned with results than
with methods.

4 R NIGHT.
How Cheyenne Was Probably saved
From Partial Destruction.

Nearly everybody in Cheyenne heard
the fierce bowling OF the wind night be-
fore last, and not a few felt the sensation
Of being rocked to and fro as in a cradle
when their residences or other buildings
in which they were safely ensconsed Tor
the night, were struck by the terrific
blasts which swept over and through the
city for the greater part Of the night.
How many times the exclamation was
made during those few hours What
an awful night this would be for a fire, ;"
can never be known, but why there was
no FIRE that night is now well known
For eight hours on that night Constable
Smalley and Policeman Sullivan we're on
the alert to prevent the outbreak of a dis
astrous fire. for had the flames once got
started, especially in the northwestern
part of the city, one half Of Cheyenne
and probably more would have been in
ashes before daylight. At mi place in
the western part Of the city the flames
burst up from an ash barrel and set fire
to some Of the rubbish near by. Smalley
and Sullivan discovered it and made a
vigorous attack upon the flames, although
they at first had no weapons to fight with.
The inmates Of the nearest house for
some reason could not be aroused, but
the two officers succeeded in getting hold
of a pail, and finding water about half a
block away, eventually put out the fire
before it mad obtained a start sufficient
to create a general alarm, Shortly after
this, flames broke out in aaotber iron ash
barrel which stood in front of a residence
not far from the shops of the Cheyenne
| Carriage company. The wind was blow
ing a perfect hurricane at the time, and
| sparks of FIRE and even small Goals were
carried by the wind clear down as for ms
| the west end of Keefe's hall. BY dint Of
prompt effort this embryo fire was also
ex~tinguished before it had done any dam
age, and the stray sparks and Goals that
had been scattered far and wide were also
smothere1. Several times during the
night the officers had to hasten from one
| point TO another at the West End to see
hat no dangerous fire should get the
start, and they did active and efficient ser
vice in the interests Of life and property.
At about $50 in the morning a fire start
ed in Il little residence between Seven
tenth and Eighteenth streets, at the ex-
J IRENE west end of the city which was oc-
cupied by a colored family. The alarm
was sounded and the entire fire depart.
ment promptly responded. but before any
of the company had arrived on the ground
the flames had been extinguished by the
inmates of the house and Others who came
to their assistance. Altogether Cheyenne
had some narrow escapes on Monday
plight, and it is to be hoped that another
such a night of peril will not come agair
very soon.
