The Balfour administration seems de-
termined to keep some prominent Irish
supporter of Home Rule in prison most of
the time-presumably as a warning to all
others not to undertake to cross the wishes
of the British government. JOHN Dillon,
one of the ahlest and most prominent of
Irish leaders, is the latest victim. He has
been sentenced to 81. months imprison-
ment in Dondalk Jail, for violation of the
infamous crimes act. An address was
presented to Mr.. Dillon, signed by $50
members Of the House of Commons, le-
senting the policy Of sending him to un-
merited imprisonment and expressing the
hope that his sojourn in phi on would le
made less bitter by the knowledge that
sympathy for him is not confined to Ire
land. Such acts as these which have
grown characteristic of Balfour and his
party-wifl do much and 60 far towards
fastening the success of the just cause
which they are trying to stifie.

The worst storm Of the season commenced
Wednesday afternoon, and has continued,
with a slight interInission to this (Friday)
morning. Wednesday morning opened calm
and cold, the mercury standing about 80 - be-
low. As the day advanced the wind began to
rise, coming directly from the south, and by
night had reached pretty stiff gale. As the
night advanced the wind increased In fury and
by IL o'clock 1t was perfectly terrible, the air
being filled with snow. Toward morning the
wind went down, and from about to 10
o'clock it was comparatively calm. About
that hour the wind hauled around to the
northwest, and began to blow with violence,
increasing as the day advanced. Many think
that during the night 1t was the severest wind
ever known in this section In winter. The
air all the time was filled with snow. At an
early hour in the afternoon parents began to
call at the school house for their children be-
ing afraid to trust them getting home alone.
About 10 o'clock yesterday morning Agent
Elwell received notice that all trains north and
west Of Breckenridge had been abandoned,

A number Of citizens were startled from
their slumbers about II o'clock Saturday night
by repeated cries of "help, help" coming from
the prairie north of town. Several parties at
once started out in the direction Of the sounds,
and within few rods OF the old Hope house
Mr.. R. D. Stewart found John Morris, man
between fifty and sixty years Of age, who was
almost overcome by cold and prostration. His
eyelashes were frozen together 30 that he could
not see, and his beard and mustache were a
solid lump of ice, and 1t is difficult to under
stand how he made himself heard. Mr.. Stew
art was soon Joined by Mr.. j. A. White, Tur-
ney, Hench, Whitney, Walden and N. A. Car

his limbs bathed and every attention rendered
him. His feet were found pretty badly frozen

foreclosure sales and earnings in the United
States, showing that no less than thirty -oDe
different railroads, aggregating S,47s miles,
and representing an apparent capital invest
ment Of $S2S, 600, 600, were sold in bankruptcy
during 1887. The Age says: It is remarkable
that while by Tar the greater part of the rail-
way building has been carried on in the wild
and presumably reckless West, the old, con-
ssrvative and wealthy Eastern states Of Now
York and Pennsylvania furnished nearly one
third the roads that had to be closed out dur

Minneapolis now boasts a through outlet
from that city to tide water Independent alike
Of Duluth and Chicago. The first through
train over the $500" for the seaboard started
from the Flour city January s, freighted with
$1,000 barrels Of flour, tho product of Minne-
apolis mills, consigned to Boston, London,
New York and Philadelphia. The train was
composed OF 100 cars, divided into five sections.
The Evening Journal says this new enterprise
"was conceived by Minneapolis men, backed
by Minneapolis money, and carried out by
Minneapolis enterprise" The importance Of
this new outlet to the seaboard must have an
important bearing on the development Of the
Northwest, giving, as it does, winter outlet
to the seaboard 800 miles shorter than by way
Of Chicago, which, In time, must necessarily
reduce the carrying charges on grain. What
is there now to prevent foreign buyers coming
right to the wheat fields of Dakota and buying
our hard wheat and shipping it direct to the
seabord, there to be transferred to vessels and
carried to its point Of destination, thus obviat-
ing the linking process" at Duluth and Chi
cago? Every new outlet must help the farm
ers Of the Northwest and we hope to see Min
neapolis reap rich reward for The enterprise

half an hour later in reaching him he would
undoubtedly have been frozen to death. Ate,
he had revived he stated he had gone from the
farm Of Mr.. Charles Mitchell to visit bis dauph.
ter, who was stopping with Miss Rose Murray
about three miles north of Mitchelps on tho
road to Sherbrooke. About 1 O'Clock in tho
afternoon he started from Rose Murray's to re.
turn to Mr.. Mitchelps, but somehow lost his
way and finally struck the farm Of Charley
Jackson, about mile and half southeast Of
MtchelPs. Here he was directed to Mitchell's
and again started off. His eyes being weak
and he also being near sighted, 1t il probable
he could not sec Mitchelps buildings, though
in plain view, aud instead Of going west he
turned south. By this time it had become dark
and there arose mist, such az IL sometimes
seen our prairies, and Morris kept trudging
through tho deep snow over the prairie, crying
out so as to try and attract attention, till the
hour indicated above. At the time he was dis.
covered he was notmore than half mile from
town and about the same distance from Mr..
James Ellsburys. Early In tho evening Ed
Mitchell called at Rose Murray's and finding
Morris had started, he returned home, and
becoming alarmed at the non-appearance Of
Morris, he started out In search Of him. He
tracked him to Jackson's, and learned that hs
had left there more than hour before. Ed then
returned home and procured team and again
started out. Coming down to Ellsbury's that
gentleman Joined him, and together they spent
tho entire night hunting for him, not learning
OF his rescue till Sunday morning. Morris re-
mained at Mr.. Stewards until Sunday after
noon, when he was taken up to Mitchelps
place. We learn that he has very nearly re-
covered from the effects of bis exposure It
was pretty close call, and he may attribute
his safety to the possession OF good pair Of
lungs. Morris and his daughter kept house for
