Paul Wallott, the German who has
come to this country to act as a jury
man ina competition for the designs
for buildings to suit the needs of the
University OF California, is perhaps the
most prominent architect in Germany.
When he was chosen to- design the
building in Berlin, where the parlia-
ment met, his plans were fearfully
n,angled by the emperor. Wallott
wished that the assembly room of the
reichstag should be indicated by a
dome. But the emperor regarded this
as a reflection on himself, and, declar-
ing hat the people of Germany were
not sovereign, he forbade the dome.

THE LENTEN SEASON.
Point 10 "a More General OBJ
servance.

Indications point to more general obser-
vance of Lent, which begins to-day, than
ever before. The special feature of the OBJ
servance will be the extent to which all
Protestant bodies will take part. In this in
nOvatiOn, which has been coming on for sew
eral years, Baptsts and Congregationalists
will lead.
A very large proportion Of churches of
these denominations will take some notice of
the season. A good many will keep Holy
Week by having services every evening, aud
also ON Good Friday, and practically all will
have elaborate services at Easter. Methodists
and PIesbyterians will observe the season to
some extent, but less widely than others.
Marked changes are taking place IN the
form Of service, and also in the extent to
which the traditional church year. beginning
at Advent and continuing to Trinity, is
taught to Sunday school children The
opening week Of the year in January was
this year observed as Week of Prayer by
so few churches as to make it almost true to
say that, as an institution in the religions
world, the Evangelical Alliances Week of
Prayer has passed away.
In its place the week Immediately preced-
ing Easter Sunday will be observed very
generally, aud this in churches in Western as
we'll as in Eastern cities

FROZEN TO DEATH.
4 Mine Laborer Succunbs to the blizzard
While Homeward Bound.

While HOmeward Sound.
The first fatality of the storm reported in
this section of the coal region was the death
OF Louis Karofslki, Russian Pole 26 years
old, who had been in the country but a short
time, and lived at Mahanoy City. His life
less remains were found on the mountain side
north of Coles patch at 3 o'clock last night,
after a search of two hours for them.
Karofski worked as a laborer at the ELAN
gowan cOlliery On quitting work Monday
afternoon he started homeward in company
with John NitOck. The latter was warmly
clad. Karoiski was less fortunate. 1t was
$3.50 o'clock when they started from the col
liery. They had not gone far when Karofski
complained of feeling cold gale was
blowing and the falling snow made it possible
for the travellers to see but few feet in ad-
vance of them. They reached the valley
between Ellangowan cOlliery and the cut
west Of the Elmwood collery. The men lost
the path and loundered about for some
time when Karofski complained that
his feet were tired, evidently meaning that
they were numb. Nitok urged him on and
kept walking in advance about hundred
yards, when he turned and looked behind
He was surprised to see his companion stand
ing WueIe ne stOppeu ana cOmpldlned OF his
feet. Vitock called to Karofski to hurry up,
and then walked ahead. He stopped again
and could not see Karofski. Vitock went
back and found the unfortunate man sitting
on a rock behind a big snow drift. The man
was in semi. conscious condition. Vitoclx
tried to persuade him to get up and walk, but
failed. He then concluded that Karofski
would recover after rest, and continued his
journey TO Mahauoy City.
Yesterday morning Vitock went to the
victims boarding house to ascertain if Karo-
fski had reached home. When answered in
the negative he told the story as above The
boarding boss told Vitock to take someone on
the mountain to look for the victim, but
VitOck insisted that the boarding boss ought
to look after his boarders. In the afternoon
he changed his mind however. and guided
several men to the place where the corpse
was found 1t was in a sitting position with
the back braced against rock The fea-
lures were terribly distorted, showing that
the victim had suffered agony before death.
The body was almost completely covered by
snow. 1t was removed to Mahauoy City and
| an autopsy was held this morning
