The Burmese pharmacopoeia as q whole

there is no gainsaying the fact that it in

as jungle fever and dysentery, which If
used by the light Of common sense and

productive of excellent results. I have
heard an English NJ. D. speak highly of
one simple decoction prepared by Bur
mese druggist for use In cases of dysen-
terry. 1t was, If I remember rightly, made
from the thick rind of the mangosteen,
and my medical friend had found il suffl-
GENTLY efficacious to recommend it in his
own practice. However deplorable may
be the character of Burmese internal treat

nearly always escapes their fury and
basks In sunshine when the balance Of
the country Is shivering with cold. 1t
is rather hard to foretell snow storm
in this locality.
Last nights snow fall was the
heaviest on record siJce January, 1891,
when the fall was six inches The
wind last night reached velocity of
from 48 to so miles and snow fell to a
debth OF 81 inches. At six o'clock this
morning the weather mans themome-
ter stood Is degrees above zero or IA
below freezing point.
The heaviest falls of snow on record
at the Ell Paso Office during the winter
months since 1884, have been Us fol-
lows:
November, 1886, inches; December.
1887: 1 $40 inches; January, 1891, 6
inches; February, 1888, l lilo inches:
March, 1891, inches.

to have swept from Denver westward

STORY OF THE STORM.
Snow began falling at 3 O'Clock YES
terday afternoon and continued to fall
until long after bedtime last night.
BY six O'Clock the street, and side
walks, the housetops, the mesa, the
mountains, the plaza, and vacant lots
were all covered to the depth of an
inch while the atmosphere was filled

with q swirling mass of snowflake
that were cast h1ther 8nC
~, 1,u oh uin6

with a swirling mass of snowfakes
that were cast hither and
thither by brisk wind.
By 9 o'clock the snow was heaped in
drifts foot or more in depth at the
windward side of all buildings and
fences and pedestrians found walking
difficult. In the business portion of
the city the streets soon became we'll
nigh deserted and the usual hush that
accompanies snow storm settled
down over the town, and the shouts of
the snow drifts on the residence streets
could be heard great way of.
Snow continued to fail steadily until
a late hour and an icy gale from the
Rockies blew all night. This morning
the city and the surrounding landscape
present strange and unusual appear
ance and a visitor alighting here from
the bleak north in search Of a sunny
CLINE, might easily imagine himself at
home again.
INDUSTRIES PARALYZED
The STOW storm resulted in we'll nigh
paralyzing q number Of industries
In this city, Milk wagons were
an hour late getting around to their
customers; not an ice wagon was to be
seen on the north side, and work on
many new buildings was temporarily
suspended. AT an early hour the rail-
road crossings began to be cleared OF
snow by section hands and workmen
were seen clearing the sidewalk and
street crossings with shovels soon after
daybreak.:
Water pipes in all parts of town
were frozen and many burst. AS y
consequence the plumber had his
| hands full and was the happiest and
busiest man in town, barring the small
boy, who could not be kept in doors
| and was in his glory all day. He made
| life a burden for dignifed pedes-
TRANS and enjoyed himself hugely.
The street railway WAS compelled to
discontinue running it's cars long be-
fore midnight, last night and there was
not car to be seen this morning. This
catastrophe seriously embarrassed
thousands of men, who depend on this
method of rapid transit to get from
| their homes to the heart of the city
and most of them were com PEELED to
founder up town today through the
snow.
The railway people put out a
large force of workmen clearing their
| tracks and hope soon to have cars rum
| ming on schedule time.
The trains were all reported late
this morning and the time when they
will reach the city is indefinite. Fol-
tains surrounding Ell Paso must have
been heavy.
| The depth of the snow in this city
was just about right for sleighing pur-
poses, and at nine O'Clock this morning
sleighs began to make their appear
ance and soon the jingle of bells could
be heard in all portions of town.

Some of these cities use fire engines in portions of the city, some at large fires and otherwise, but this com prlseS list of cities which in some man her have done away with steam fire en- glnes-by the construction of water sys- tems of sufficient pressure to enable them to be utilized for that purpose.

MRS. CLARK VISITS THE
 MURDERER
Continued from First Page.

T won't say anything my attorney tells me not to-"
 Mrs. Clark continued to plead with him until her daughter said:
 Never mind, ma; don't ask him any more"
 Clark shook hands with his sister-in- law and with the child, saying:
 "Goodby, Bertha; be a good girl'
 Which Is good advice, even though it came from a murderer
 Mrs. Clark and her daughter went back to St. Helena, Clark back to his cell.
 'I told her." he said later. when speaking of the interview, that we might meet again, something might happen. Life is so uncertain. You can never tell from one day to another. That's what have always said"
 Sheriff Mckenzie fears that the pris- oner may resort to suicide, and it wouldn't be hard to imagine this mel ancholy, miserable man driven to des- peration.
 'I never thought of suicide" he said, when the Sheriff's precautions were mentioned. Why, ain't even thought of it. I ain't afraid to go up to St. Helena. I ain't afraid of there being a mob."
 But Sheriff Mckenzie is. He re- members a preliminary examination in St. Helena some years ago that was never concluded. There were so many witnesses to be examined that court adjourned over night and a St. Helena mob took the prisoner from the laws custody and hanged him. Sheriff Me- KenZie doesn't propose that his prede- cessor's experience shall be repeated during his term.
 Clark will be taken to the little town where the crime was committed in a wagon if the weather is fine, with an extra deputy to guard him. Should the examination be prolonged beyond train time (there is but one train from St Helena in the afternoon) Clark will not be trusted for a single night to the doubtful security of a St. Helena jail The Sheriff will drive back again to Napa at whatever time the examina- tion may conclude.
 The murderer is worried about the financial affairs of the Clark family.

ingly, "appear to be kind of down on support the children. She wants to take in washing, but I don't know whether she'll git 1t. I told her to be patient, and I guess she'll live it down. She told me all about the moving and that"
 Shall you see Mrs. Clark if she comes again?"
 70 yes; I'll always be glad to see her and the children" he answered, with that half-grotesque, half-pathetic but wholly sincere regard for the younger Clarks. But I won't talk to her or to any one else about my case I've talked too much already, and I won't see anybody to talk to without my at torney's there. When I go on the stand I'll tell all the truth"
 It is quite probable, too, that he will George Clark is too weak, too dull even to lie we'll.
 The Sheriff has in his custody a let ter written by Clark to the husband of Mrs. Clark'S eldest daughter, G. w Dax, whose name is signed to the war rant issued for Clark's arrest It is a pitiably ignorant letter that would disgrace a boy of 10. It is kept that the handwriting acknowledged by
 
 the notes which in his confession he says he wrote, signing his brothers name. These notes are nearly illegible now, so they have been photographed. They are written on dirty scraps of pa per with a lead pencil. The following letter, written the same day Clark con- fessed his crime, shows the intellectual caliber of the man:
 The prison walks are dark and dreary but the lite comes through the little win dow so bright and cheering. The Lord Is with me in this cell and to him chant. George, am not guilty, and God knows it if you will come down I would like to talk to you. I am we'll I do be- lieve l will come out all write are you all well. From G. w. Clark to G. W. Dax.

Postponement during the months of

ed is probably greater. The flooded
condition of the country renders COM

Islands, which We're the scene of great
storms of 1898, in which thousands of
persons perished, was received yester-
day. While the storm was nothing
like that of five years ago, the loss is
heavy. The beaches north of Tybee
are lined with wrecks of small craft
and at Bluffton and the other small
settlements nearly all the houses were
urroCfed and many were destroyed.

went ashore on Gaskin bank, is a total
wreck. The captain and crew We're

Small steamers have patroled Gala
