ST. PAUL, March 24.-One week ago,
when the mercury was 70 degrees above
zero. the highest reached in March, it
was hoped that the worst of the winter
had passed. but this weeks weather has
proved otherwise. During the earlier
part of the week there were severe
storms at the heads of the lakes, and
South Dakota suffered from the same
blizzard that did 30 much damage in
Nebraska. Lsst night the lakes and
the Dakotas were visited by storm
that in many respects surpassed any
thing that has been experienced
in the winter, while all parts
of the northwest have had share of it.
Along the southern shore of Lake Supe-
rior it was in the nature of snowstorm,
accompanied by severe gales, and some
snow is reported from Dakota. but the
storm was most severe in most localities
by wind. 1t has been blowing gale all
day and tonight continues, while the
mercury is dropping fast and zero is
promised before morning.
At Mot, N. D., last night the steeple
of the Presby yterian church was blown
down, and the people who were prepar-
ing for Easter narrowly escaped. Traine
were delayed and country people were
unable to get to town. Several build
ings were unroofed at Crookston. Much
glass was broken and the snow driited
badly.
OMAHA, March "a The second sec
tion of the blizzard of Wednesday,
which started last night, made itself felt
along the line of the Burlington road in
the northwest. completely blocking traf-
fic at Sheridan, and forcing the road TO
suspend operations except at division
points. kilograms received at railroad
headquarters indicate that the storm is
abating in the northwest, although it is
intensely cold. The Union Pacific is
operating trains, but TO considerable
disadvantage, owing to the high winds
on the Nebraska division. The storm
has abated in the Black Hills. but trains
are still blockaded on the Elkhorn di-
vision.
DENVER, March PA light snow be-
gan falling before noon. Reports indi-
cate that the storm extends over Colo
rado, Wyoming, Utah, Western Kansas
and Nebraska. The snow here is melt
ing as fast as it falls.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, March 24.-Troy,

She had drawn a rude circle, and there
were dots in it as if pencil point came
down in many places. The supposition
is that the letters were placed inside a
circle, like the numbers on the face of a
clock, and she then let the pencil held in
her fingers drop wherever chance brought
it. The letter on which it hit signifed
the outcome Of whatever she might have
been thinking OF. In this manner doubt
less she found whether the months were
to be good or bad for her.
She had marked February as month
to avoid and with the letters 80 S." Ac-
cording to the mystic dictionary, 90"

her and rs" that she would receive un-

been unpleasant, and February proved
to be the month of her grievous exit
