SNOW BLOCKADE.

Compared with the storm reported west
of us, we have not much to complain Of
about our end of :he storm.
The Santa Fe is all blockaded west, SO
that no trains have got further west than
Newton since Saturday. The passenger
train Sunday night stopped at Newton, and
train load of horses for the west laid over
at Florence. The wires are all down be-
tween Newton and Kansas City, and in or
der to get message through from Newton
to Florence, it had to be sent to Wellington
and around on the Southern Kansas railroad
WIRE No freights are moving on the Santa
Fe, and none will reach here on that road
to-day, all the engines being at work clear
ing the line west of Newton. Heavy snow
drifts are reported in the vicinity of Dodge
City and further west. Our end Of the
storm don't cut much Of figure.

kIDING SCHOOL AT THE RINK.

A reporter dropped in at the rink last
night and took note of Professor Pasahro's s
riding school, which WAS quite a recherche
affair last night. The maneuvers Of q
mounted battalion is at any time interesting,
but when on the saw dust in the aerena and
in martial music it becomes quite attractive.
The formation of platoons from single file
and double and formation OF battalion
lines when participated in by fair ladies and
brave men is quite the thing to attrac.
an old dragoon's appreciative eye.
The school is being augmented day by
day with the ladies and gentlemen of the
city notwithstanding the inclemency of the
weather and the exercise goes on with a
good deal of interest.

A representation of Romeo and Juliet"
at the Star theatre last night introduced to
the New York public young actress who,
is announced as English by birth. Miss
Adelaide More is the name of the young
woman, and 1t has been hinted by her rep
resentatives that her resemblance of Miss
Nelson extends farther than the mere Chris
tian name. Those who attended last nights
performance in the hope of seeing Juliet
worthy to be placed by the side of
Nelson's Incompatible performance must
have departed satisfied. A grace
full figure, an interesting and prepossessing g
face, an intelligence which carries her safely
over many difficult place, Miss Moore
possesses. 1t speaks well for the ability Of
the young actress, that in part which but
seldom in generation has seen perfectly
fitting exponent, she is interesting and by
no means unpleasing. In choosing Juliet
as her introductory part she aimed high.
Her cuisines" j, well thought out and well
arranged and her comedy scenes show q
light and delicase touch.
