January passed out under cloud. 1t
was a month of disagreeble weather and
the deep snow is a silent witness to the
heavy precipitation. Tuesday was the
bright day Of the week, however with a
clear sky, bat heavy wind loosened
roaring avalanches and kept the cliffs in
misty mazes Of furrying snow.
February is allotted only twsntyeight
days. but II all are to be in the style of
the first three we would excuse the last
week OF the aggregation without penalty
for cancelling the dates.
Wednesday morning the new mcnth
introduced a steady fall OF snow which
famed the spark of hope into flame Of
confidence that the new month intended
to behave in becoming manner. But it
was delusion Of short duration and the
wind was blowing perfect gale before
noon, and came sweeping down the can
ons from Snow Mass and Scoaeld,
bringing wh0le SNOW drifts from those
Arctic zones, and in the process OF mov

Art students ought to take on new
hopes from a little item in an Eastern
paper which says the famous French
portrait painter Duran cleared $4,000
on his visit to this country last year.
He produces something which the very
rich are glad to pay for, and it is always
SO when person excels his fellow man
in some art which ministers to the pride
and vanity OF poor human nature; especi-
ally when new found wealth desires to
make displays. But without that SUI
perior excellence is sure to bring superb
or rewards. When n painter can mix
brain and handcraft enough with his
dyes to electrlfy those who watch the
completed picture, his fortune is secure.
1t is not strange that Duran is expected
back in this country very soon.-Salt

Adopting American System.

English railways are gradually
adopting the American system of hand
ling baggage and in some instances are
even going beyond the facilities Offer
ed by the lines in this country. The
London and Northwestern Railway
has for some months collect
ed and forwarded baggage in advance
for travellers to the seaside and other
tourist resorts at q uniform charge of
twelve cents package. The plan has
met with so much success that begin
ming with the new year the company
has extended it to apply to baggage for
ern ra .way in England, Wales and
Ireland o. on the CaledOnian Railway
in Scotland.
By this system the traveller may
have the baggage collected by the COM
pany's wagon from his house or hotel
and forwarded day or 80 before that
on which he intends to travel. The
charge of twelve CENTS q package in
cludes delivery within the usual boun-
daries at d situation where the compa-
ny has its own carriage staff.
At other places the baggage can be
addressed to be left "till called for"
at the station. The company has also
arranged q system of registration
under which each package will be
mum bered and a receipt with q cores
pouding number given to the own err
when il is turned over to the company.

A Wreck Narrowly Averted On One

1t is seldom, il ever. that railroad
man relates circumstance with the
tinge of seriousness which the follow
ing statement bears but as the report

certain siding. remembered my
orders until within q mile of the meet
ing point, but there for some reason or
whistled for the siding instead of stop
ping as I should have done and went
by it at a lively clip. AS it so
happened after rounding q sharp
curve about half mile from the meet
ing point ente red into stretch of
straight track about q mile in length
and had no sooner rounded the curve
until saw the smoke of the engine
which b ad orders against me. Like .
flash l reversed my engine and was
soon o. standstill. used the whistle
freely and the engineer on the ap-
preaching engine applied the
backward motion and a wreck
was aver ted. This only occurred
with q suspicious smile, land I
have not reported the matter as yet,
but as it was my fault directly, I ex-
pect 1 may as we'll wait for the other
fellows to make the report as they GER
tainly will do it. 1t was a call by far
too close to be comfortable, and Iex-
pect when the officials hear of it will
be on the extra list of some other

Activity in the South.

It is indeed remarkable that the
south is just now awakening to her
splendid opportunities and RESPONSE
bilities. We have for years paid
tribute to the northern and eastern
manufacturers. They own the life and
fire ins urance companies, the express
companies. the railroads, cable and
steamship lines, the trust COM
panies and the publishing houses.
They write and supply our text
books, they make our boots and shoes,
hats and caps, clothing, millinery,
hardware, queensware. tinware, fur
niture, and they manufacture at fine
profit the very cotton and tobacco
grown in our fields. Visit your stores
and see how many articles are manu-
featured in this section. Even much
of our meat, lard, hay, flour, and can
ned goods bear the impress of north
ern, eastern or western label.-Jack-

Archbishop lreland's Visit To Rome

A Rome dispatch says: Archbishop
Ireland went to the vatican today,
where he had conference with Car
dinal Rampolla, papal secretary of
state. Many cardinals and other &C.
clesiastics visited the archbishop at
the Hotel Bristol, where he Is stay
ing.
In the course of an interview this
afternoon he declared that there was
absolutely no foundation for the state
ment that he had been charged to re-
present the United States at the forth
coming conference regarding the
Limitation of armaments. The United
States, he said, had not yet appointed
q delegate.
The archbishop was very reserved in
his replies to questions respecting re-
ligious problems in America on the
ground that it was necessary for him to
wait for the holy see to pass upon such
matters.

There is no truth in the statement
