Death In a blizzard.

DIR. Smith. the health officer If this
port, a day or two ago spoke of death in
a blizzard as being the result &c suiToca-
ton, and explained his meaning by say
ing; Zone of my clerks was twn hours
in coming TO me on one If the days of
the furious blizzard in this city, He was
three hours and a half. he told me, in
going back over the same distance. ONE
thing like two miles. lie felt no incon-
venience beyond the exhaustion conse-
quent on the fight with the wind. He
slipped into doorways 10 catch his breath.
and when the wind blew too sharply in
his face turned around with his back to
it. Death in a blizzard comes too often
from attempting to breast the storm.
The wind takes away ones breath. Suf-
location follows. A man doubles mp and
drops down and is dead. lie does not
even know what allied him. If he had
turned his back 20 the blast for n
moment he might have faced it again
and have gone on for another struggle
unframed. New York Tribune.

ella T. (who is not lying, Ann Nj. and
Harrison S.
Captain Cousens was one Of the leading
farmers of his town. He also took a large
interest in agriculture, both in his native
place and county. He was a kind neighbor,
and highly respected by his townsmen He

Poland, man of strong will, honest and
truthful in his dealings with his neighbors.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
JOAN OF ARC.


The historical events which surround the
saving of Orleans, give fruitful field Tor
the dramatic art. And the inspiration, the
sweetness, the superhuman courage OF Joan
of Arc cali for an intensity and honesty Oh
impersonation that are seldom seen on the
modern stage. But Miss Maude Banks, IN
attempting this character, has found one
that she has every quality to present. IL
matters not that she has seen but year or
two ON the stage, she is an actress now; and
one whose progress must command the inter-
ested attention of the public. She throws
her whole soul into her acting. and as one
mement she, in her visions, wears an express
sion of angelic communion, and the next be-
comes her quiet, pleasant self once more, the
audience look, and look again, ana WONDER
to see il she is not really inspired. SUCH
quiet, modest, frail little maiden, that 1t is
marvel whence come her exceptional power
of body and voice.
But 1t is pity that the stars so often are
supported by such worthless machinery as
that of Miss Banks last evening The seem
cry, too, was old and worn, though the ca
thedral scene was romantic enough.
Portland Theatre gave only moderate
welcome to Miss Banks, but those who sat
there greatly enjoyed the performance.

Mr.. Sol Smith Russell appeared at City

its peculiar power, raises Cain in hitherto
domestic and peaceful household. 1t takes
Halovon Todd Mr. RussplD a nuiat sancti-
monius, Notwithstanding ninny, by the ears
and sets him to Illuminating the murky
gloom of his precinct in the most approved
fashion. He has, all because he has by. acct
dent got this amulet in his shoe, what Is
technically known as monkey and parrot
time, and the sum total of his DEPRESSION
from his former straight and narrow path IS
over and above ordinary fun. MIR. Russell
makes a great go" in this part, and his
called, are. worth. travelling far to see, or
rather worth standing the rest OF the play,
which is not over-palatable.
