SEVERAL LIVES LOST.
Eight or Ten Persons Perished in
Northwestern Blizzard.

st. Paul, Mimi, March 1s.-The great
blizzard which had ragged over the Da-
kotas and Manitoba since last Friday
subsidized Sunday night and Monday
the weather was generally fair, but in
tensely cold, the thermometer rang
ing from ten to sixteen below zero. In
view of the fury and suddenness of the
storms it is remarkable that so few
lives are reported lost. While the re-
ports so far have been meager and
many remote points have not yet been
heard from, it is general belief that not
above eight or ten persons persisted
throughout the storm-swept region. A
family of four is reported to have per-
ished near Minot, N. D., and two or
three Others are said to have been
frozen to death in different localities.
The loss to stock is hard to estimate.
A report from Dickinson, N. D., places
the loss at from 25 to 30 per cent, while
rumor places it, in other localities, at
much higher f~ure. 1t will be sever
