FEARFUL SNOW BLOCKADE.
Trains In the West and Northwest Com
pietely showed Up.

CHICAGO. January 20.-Ihe snow block
ade In the West and Northwest is one Of the
most complete on record. Not only has
travel become am impOssibility on the
Western divisions of the Central and North
ern Pacific. but every through telegraph
wire is down on both routes.
Washington and Oregon have but one
wire connecting them with the outside
wOrld-that is san Francisco via Portland
which is unable 10 carry much business.
There are 900 men al work along the Cen
trail Pacific Railroad trying 20 clear the
blockade at Emigrant Gap, in the sierras.
but as the snOW-plOws cannot work through
the freezing ice, the prospect Of the road
being opened within the iOrty-eight hours is
slim.
The snow is seven feet deep on the level
and fathOmless in the cuts. On the North
ern Pacific. Colonel CrOcker's special train
has been showed in for three days.
The Southern Pacific has been badly in
iured By washOuts in the Teachepi noun
tains and beyond Los Angeles the floods
have done much damage. IL has been rain
ing heavily in southern California for days
past, while IL IL showing in the North.
The Western Telegraph Company reports
snow still falling in the West, SO that the
prospect is by no means encouraging.
THE SITUATION VERY SERIOUS.
san FRANCISCO, January 20.-The snow
blockade Of the Central Pacific Railroad in
the vicinity OF Truckee and Emigrant Gap.
has become very serious. Since Tuesday
last no Eastern overland trains have been
able 90 reach point further West than Col

Of the snow varies from eight 10 twenty
feet. Snow plows, pushed by ten OF twelve
locomotives, are reported stuck fast in the
drifts.
Snow STILL FALLING.
Snow is still falling. and places Of the
road which had been cleared BY the plOWs,
are rapidly filling up again. The passen-
gers of the blOckaded trains are comfort
ably quartered al hotels by the company.
some cases Of influenza are reported among
the passengers, and the company has pro-
yded the sufferers with medical attention.
The railroad officials declare that the block
ade is the heaviest and longest they have
experienced for over ten years. No mails
have reached this city from the east since
last Tuesday, and telegraph wires are en-
tirely buried in the snow in some places.
.PORTLAND, OR, January 20.-rhe snow
blockade on the different railroads leading
out OF Montreal continues. Passengers

road for seattle, Tacoma and Portland are
arriving practically on time, however, that

The Wives efFrance, England, and Ame,i.
From East and West. I

Club life is unknown in France, ex.
cept among the very upper classes.
Man and wife are constantly together,
and France is a nation of Darbys and
Joans. There is, I believe, no country
where men and women go through
life On such equal terms as France. In
England land here again speak of the
masses only the man thinks himselfa
much superior being to the woman. It
IS the same in Germany. In America
l should feel inclined to believe that a
woman looks down upon man with a
certain amount of, contempt. She re-
ceives at his hands attentions of al!
sorts; but l cannot say tnat I have ever
discovered in her the slightest trace of
gratitude to man. ..-
Will you have fair illustration of
the position Of women in France, in
England, in America? Go to a hotel
and watch the arrival Of couples in the
dining room. In France you will zee
them arrive together, walk abreast to-
ward the seat assigned to them, very
often arm-in-arm. In England you will
see John Bull leading the way, fol.
lowed by his meek wife, with her eyes
cast down. In America, behold the
dignified, nay, majestic, entry of Mrs.
Jonathan, a queen going toward her
throne, and Jonathan behind!

The TeacherS' Institute.

On the 23rd Of June every white
teacher in the county will be expected
at Newberry to attend the institute
which will continue in. session one
week.
The institute is for the benefit of
teachers, but by benefitting them will
be great benefit to the schools as we'll.
Our common schools must be built
up, they must be made better and
more efficient, or the object for which
they were begun will be only in part
attained.
The great majority of teachers can
not attend normal schools. They have
neither the time nor the money to give
to this purpose. For such teachers the
county institute was begun. While it
does not fully meet the wants of the
normal, still it helps the teacher great
deal III his work. He can learn much
that will be of incalculable good to him
in the school room.
Every teacher should feel interested
personally in the work that is to be
done here in June. He should not feel
that the time is to be spent in pleasure
alone, but that it is to be given ma inly
to hard and profitable work.
The County Board Of Examiners will
do all in their power to make the insti-
tute success.
There will be several lectures at
night during the week. Col. Rice,
| State Superintendent of Education,
has promised to be here on Friday the
9TH, if it is possible for him to come.
hope that all school trustees will
attend the institute, and that they will
insist that teachers in their districts
attend also.
A full programme Will be given in
the county papers as soon as it can lie
prepared. ARTHUR KILLER.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it q local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced itincurable. Scienco
has proven catarrh to be constitution
ma! disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by +. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
It is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly

dollars for any case it fails to cure.

NOTES FROM EXCELSIOR

General green has come out of win
ter quarters and booming while our
farmers are fighting him with vim.
Mr.. J. T. P. Crosson, of I.eesville,
has been spending few days at home.
Mr.. James D. Kinard, of Newberry
College, spent Saturday and Sunday
at home.
Mr.. Editor, we are now enjoying
beans, Irish potatoes, pickles, and other
garden vegetables, and you may rest
assured that we appreciate such good
things to eat. What would we do with
out garden to furnish Us such good
things to satisfy our palate ticklers.
Our farmers have about finished
harvesting, and indeed the grain crops
in this entire community are very sor-
ry. What would we do for bread if it
was not for the foreign countries? Our
farmers should not become discouraged
at the present grain crops, but strive
harder and harder to raise their cake
bread at home.
A very hard rain fell in this commu-
nifty on Monday afternoon, causing
land to wash and injuring the crops to
some degree.
Owing to the abundance of rain our
farmers are getting somewhat behind
with their work.
Mrs. J. H. Crosson, Of Ridgeroad
section, spent last week in this COM
munity.
y few of our young people engaged
in another game of croquet 4 few days
ago. Such games are always pleasant
and enjoyable. Let's play again girls.
The school bell is now silent at the
academy and we feel little strange to
not hear the familiar sound of the lit
tie bell calling the pupils in to their
studies. Of course the silence of the
bell means vacation of rest to teacher
and pupils. We all like rest, and Of
course the teachers and pupils OF
schools do too, and so miteit be.
The old reliable Laurens train new
passes through this community later
in the morning and returns earlier in
the afternoon. This gives passengers
shorter stay in the city, however, tie
reliable is always on time.
The surfacing gang on the c., y. and
L. road is now at work in this commu.
nifty. We hope to soon see regular
passenger trains Oh the new line.
On last Sunday we had the pleasure
of listening to sermon preached By
our new pastor, IT. 0. Keister, at Grace
Lutheran church, Prosperity. The
speaker took for his subject the S;
Psalm and Sd verse, which was wei
handled, and listened to by a large
congregation. SIGMA.
