Snow in the Cascades,

TACOMA (Wash.), February 17th.-The
overland train from the East came in fully
three hours late this morning. The pas
sengers state that slow running through the
Rocky and Cascade mountains was the
cause of it. Heavy snow-storms have been
prevailing in the Cascades. The snow has
fallen to depth of two feet. Snow plows
preceded the overland across the noun
tains, clearing the track. On account of the
deep snow at one place both the plow and
passenger train were stuck for nearly two
hours. The snow is still falling in the
mountains, but not so heavy as in the last
two days

Kills One Daughter, Pursues Another and

TRAvER, CAL, Nav 7.-At o'clock last
night Mrs. T. A. Bresler, who lives with
her husband five miles from this place, sent
her two girls, aged IL and 9 years, to bed
and shortly after entered the room, and
seizing the older girl by the throat, pro-
ceeded to strangle her to death. The
younger child ran from the room pursued
by her mother, who was still clinging to the
other child. The mother followed 200 yards
and dropped the older child. who was then
dead, and after pursuing the other some
distance. gave up the chase and returned
home. The little girl soon arrived at a
neighbor's and gave the alarm.
Meanwhile her husband came home, and
finding no one in the house, gave several
calls, and was finally answered by his wife,
Going to the back of the house, he found
her in pool of blood. He carried her into
the house, and found the front part of her
head was literally chopped to pieces. She
was perfectly conscious, and said she had in
flicted the wounds on herself, but gave no
reason for doing so.
She told him where the dead child was,
and the neighbors, who had then arrived,
soon found the body, which was closely
guarded by the faithful dog. The doctors
pronounced the woman's case hopeless.

"About two years ago, after suffering
for nearly two years from rheumatic
gout, being able to walk only with great
discomfort, and having tried various
remedies, including mineral waters,
without relief, I saw by an advertise,
ment in Chicago paper that man had
been relieved of this distressing COM
plant, after long suffering, by taking
Ayers Sarsaparilla. 1 then decided 70
make trial of this medicine, and TOOK
it regularly for eight months, and am
pleased to state that it has effected
complete cure. I have since had no re-
turn of the disease."-Mrs. h. Irving

We are vitally interested in protection, and
as a business man 1 can say that the Mckinley
bill has strengl hened the party in my city and
State. We ought to elect three Republicans in
Missouri again next fall, and carry the Spring
field district 1t is sort of otf-year, however,
in politics. and if we hold our own in Missouri
it ought to be satisfactory. The State is stead
lily drifting toward tariff majority. A ma
tional election law would make no material
difference, for we are not troubled as other
Southern States are. A man can vote as he
pleases there. We want pension tariff and
silver legislation of a conservative sort and
next falls elections will surely come out right

Congressman Henderson, of Iowa, said:

You can safely say that if the same wisdom
prevails in the legislation of the further days
of this session as has thus far, there will be
House next winter. Iowa has eleven members
OF whom ten are Republicans. We have some
close districts. but look for just as many Re-
publicans in the next delegation as we now
have. Nothing that this Congress has thus far
done has left any but favorable impression on
the people out my way. They are especially
delighted with the free sugar and other
features of the Mckinley bill and heartily in
dorse it. The Northwest generally is satisfied,
despite the talk hear here in the East-of
great uprisings for tariff reform. believe we
now afforded to insure fair elections, and to
that end the legislation on the subject seems to
me timely.
