WOMEN AND SHOPS.
Both Suffered Equally at the
Hands of the Blast.

Yesterday wasn't exactly the kind of
a day the average woman would select
on which to make any little journey in
the world, but here and there was a
woman to be seen on the streets, and
her condition was pitiaDle IN the eX-
IRENE. She wore the Datty but utterly
useless hat she has been wearing dur
ing the mild weather, and she hadn't
wrapped up her ears.
As she came round the corner, the
wind, which blew from every direction,
graSped her petticOat5 ana wrapped
them about her SO that further navl-
cation became physical impossibility.
The snow blinded her, her ears and fin
gers were numb with cold. her cheeks
were stung by a million icy needles.
and III the bottom of her heart she
cursed-in perfectly polite way, of
cOurse-the fateS that brought her away
frcm home OIL such day.
The>shopS were practically deserted.
Only the day before women in flocks
studied the early spring bonnets dis
played in the windows, gazed calculat-
ingly at the masses of artificial flowers,
and planned marvels of spring head
wear. Yesterday the silence of the cata-
combs was not more funeral than
the milliners' gay rooms. There was no
shopping just for the fun of the thing.
Every woman who shopped yesterday
did SO because she wanted to buy some
thing, and, as the song says, "She
wanted it badly"
The matinee was drearV wilderness
OF empty seats. A great part of the au-
dience at the Grand was made up OF the
members of the alabama" company,
ho1 ho
able. The actors on the stage guyed
the audience numerically, but the
actors in front enjoyed every bit of the
performance. They applauded and
laughed and encored, and it is safe to
say that while there have been many
larger matinee audiences there was
never a more enthusiastic one.

Fargo, N. D.. and Winnipeg, Man.
during the early part of the day declared
that it was Impossible to move trains.
The great velocity of the wind, together
with the snowfall, furnished the biz
Zardy conditions that old settlers de-
scribe occasionally as winter feature
of old times. Railroad men admitted
that the storm was the worst of the
season, the worst that they had
experienced for several years, and, al
though the temperature was just above
zero during the afternoon, the condi-
lions of the atmosphere were very I'M
pleasant for all kinds of travel. Toward
evening the railroad men began to re-
ceive reports saying that the storm was
abating in the West, particularly from
Fargo, n. D., westward. 1t had stopped
showing at and west of jamestown, n.
D., and the trains that had been stand
ing began to move again. Among the
teIegraphers the storm stopped great
portion of their business for hours
during the eaHy part of the day. The
only way messages could be sent to the
Pacific coast during that time was to
Chicago, thence to Winnipeg. and
then over the Canadian Pacific
wires. On the four great lines not
wire to the Pacific coast could be used
wind was the great factor in stopping
electrical communication. 1t moved a
grain elevator off of its foundation at
Dalrymple, ND. and tipped two freight
cars over at the same place. 1t blew
down winGmils and smOkestacks, blew
several freight cars down the incline of
the coal platform at Fargo, Nd, totally
wrecklng one of the cars. Several in
stances are reported where the roofs
were blown off of railway sta
tons. and thus the telegraph wires
suffered the most serious damage.
1t was or 4 o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon before telegraph communication
with Fargo was re-establiShed and on
account of the tierceness of the blizzard
the work of repairs was extended later
at other points. At Fargo windmill
blown across the track caused consider
able damage to the wires.
The Western Union handled good
deal of business Notwithstanding the
storm, ana at 5 p. m. reported that adj
6itiOnal repairs were being made rap
idly. 1t was taking all the messages
offered last night, but those destined
westward were taken subject to delay"
The North American was crowded
with business all day, and managed to

Rapid Transition From the
Fullness Of Life to Still
ness of Death.
Sketch Of the Career Of the
Banker, Merchant and
Manufacturer.
From the Poor German Lad
to the Front Rank Of
Wealth.

This community will be startled and
sudden death of William Lindeke
which occurred shortly before midnight
at his residence, No. II East Central
avenue.
1t was only Tuesday afternoon that
Mr.. Lindeke was seen upon the streets
of st. Paul, and the sudden transition
from the activity of business life to the
quietude of death Will fall upon the city
with all the force of great shock.
For some six months he has been suf-
fering with that dread malady, cancer
Of the stomach, but no Immediately
alarming symptoms were developed
until yesterday. Early in the day he
became violently ill and suffered the
most eXcruciating pain. DR.. Ohage was
summoned.and remained.throughout the
day, doing all in his power to allie
vate the sufferings of the stricken
man. but the progress of the
canker was painfully apparent. Last
night Drs. Talbot Jones and Park
Richie were called in consultation, and
all that medical science could avail
was rendered. The cancerOus growth
was rapid and fatal, and finally, at II :S5
o'clock, rupture of the stomach oc-
Cured and death enSued. At the end,
the bedside of the sufferer was sur
rounded by his immediate family. and
he breathed his last in their arms.
The death of Mr.. Lindeke removes
from the business circles of st. Paul one
of its most conspicuous figures. For
many years he has enjoyed the highest
position as man of wealth and promi-
nence. and many all ambitious father
has pointed out to his son William Lin
deke as an example of what euergy, pru-
dence and thrift may accomplish.
From the poor German boy who landed
in ST. Paul thirty-five years ago without
a dollar, he has risen to the front rank
with the wealthy merchant princes of
the Minnesota capital.

Feats In Swimming.

What the maximum periods and
distances of swimming are, are
questions that have never been an
swered, and probably never will be.
When you have found the best
dressed woman at ball, there is
always another one better dressed.
Your best swimmer is continual
ly being outdone, and the hero Of
one decade is quite outclassed in
the next.
1t was related of Columbus that
when he was young man he swan
three miles to shore from ship.
At a much earlier date Leander's
trip across the Hellespont was re-
garded as an exploit; but Lord
Byron, with a club foot, found
Leander's famous swim merely a
diversion and "child's play"
The three miles of Columbus do
not deserve notice.
Captain Webb swan the British
Channel, stretch of more than
twenty-five miles and intersected
by battling currents.
Still longer sea-passages are re-
corded at the Sandwich Islands.
Whaling vessels have pressed
sailors at Honolulu, and, after
standing out of the harbor during
several hours, these sailors have
been known to slip overheard under
cover of the dusk and swim back.
Such distances are never logged,
but thirty or forty miles are a fair
estimate. In fact, the only limita-
tons are cold and hunger, since
fatigue can always be counter
balanced by rest obtained by float
ing.
The writer's longest stay in the
water on the western hemisphere
was seven hours.
During the season when I under
took this task, | always swan de-
signated distances, first with my
legs firmly tied together, then with
my arms tied behind my back,
then in front of me; finally, with
both legs and arms tied.
This is not a matter of boastful-
ness.
An expert swimmer cannot be
conquered by water-especially by
deep-sea water, whose buoyancy is
