FiEh4ing Snow in the west.

The history of railroading in the Rocky mountains and in the orthwest the history of snow-fghting as well as of engineering, bridg building and tunneling. The snow begins early in those high attitudes. The railways lie often between sheer mountain walls. The winds-on the, plains Hometimes friendly as well as. some times hostile, for they sometimes clear the track--are here all hostile. They can only blow the snow along the tracks Down the mountain sides the first hint of warmth in the late win ter sends the released snow to block all possibility of traffic. Not merely the drift, but the avalanche, must be fought. The ways in which the snow problem is met are two--the pre- ventive and the curative. The pre- yentive agents are of three sorts snow-fences, snow-sheds and tunnels though these last are not primarily for the purpose of outwitting tEe soft, si- lent foe of travel.-Woman's Home Companion.

When the natives of Paraguay drink tea they do not pourlit from a teapot into cup, but fill a goblet made out of a pumpkin or gourd, and then suck up the hot liquid through a long reed. Moreover, the tea which they use is al- together different from that which comes from China, being made out of the dried and roasted leaves of palm like plant which grows in Paraguay and southern Brazil. The goblets and reeds which are used for this purpose are often richly carved, and many of the latter are made of solid silver. The natives say that this tea is an ex- cellent remedy for fever and rheuma- tism, and chemical tests which have been made by German physicians seem to show that there is good ground for this statement.-Boston Globe.

tnar bound him to the careless child, who knew him not-could never know him as she had done in the olden time l when they were lovers.
 The thought filled her with mingled i pride and anguish, yet she did not wayer in her resolve to renounce her ! happiness for his honor. She flung ], herself upon the ground, and, leaning { her cheek against an old apple tree, closed her eyes and listened once more l to the golden notes of the robin over- head.
 1 She did not hear quick step com ing down the grassy way, did not stir ] till she was caught in a close embrace. and held there a moment, breathless ] and unresisting; then she sprang to ] her feet and turned to him in silent re- 1 proach, for words failed her, and her l eyes were still wet with tears. But Lester met her glance unre- buked; and there was that in his look i and mien which betokened danger, warned her that the moment had come when she could no longer hold him in < check or stem the torrent, of his love.
 "Irma, why do you shrink from mel You loved me years ago, you love me still confess it.'
 Lester she replied, sadly, .'I do love you--but too we'll to tempt you from the path of duty and honor. You ] have pledged your faith to this inno- cent girl, taught her to love, to trust you; promise me that she shall never know our past.'
 'Irma, you ask me to perform a
 miracle, you bid me to live a lie, to l cling to the letter rather than the spirit of vows spoken on impulse Had we never met again, who can say-but now with your image again shrined l in my heart, how dare I promise this :? No, no-you ask too much; rather will break the letters that bind me, speak truth at any cost, even to my shame, l and leave my fate in her hands, ! He had passed the Rubicon; the love l denied him, held in check all these weeks, leaped to life at a bound; it l would take more than girls hand to curb him to patience, remuneration and honor, and for a moment she trembled
 at the fiery ordeal.
 She listened in silence to his passion 1 ate appeal, his bitter accusations, yet it was not the silence of consent, and this he felt in his impotence and de-
 spair.
 | "Irma, you are cruel-can nothing change youHresolve?''
 Hester, I would not win heaven at I the cost of another, so innocent, so happy. Unless fate interposes I will suffer in silence to the end" And turn I ing from him she moved slowly up the ! green orchard way.
 But even then fate had interposed and her sacrifice was vain; for there
 under the shadow of the lowering 1 trees stood Daisy, white and motion
 less as statue, spellbound listener 1 to words that had shattered her youth
 and happiness at a blow.s I Lester had won the freedom he so pas
 gionately craved, but in the scene that
 followed, he drank his cup of humilia- tion to the dregs. Boston Budget.

REBUTTAL EVIDENCE.
Miners of the Upper Region Before
 the Strike Court.

Miners of the Upper Region Before
 the Strike Court.
 pHILAD Feb. 4.-Much of the rebuttal testimony presented yes terday to the anthracite coal strike commission was furnished by mine workers from the upper region. In this section the miners are asking for pay ment by weight. The witnesses in ev- cry case were questioned concerning the advantage of such change in the wage scale, and all were unanimous in the opinion that the method was the only just one where the veins were flat Commissioner Watkins asked C.. D. Gallaghe miner employed by the Delaware and Hudson company, if he did not think a daily wage rate would be satisfactory to the men. The wit ness thought so but yentured the opin- ion that the miners would not work to the limit of their ability if that method obtained.
 Other witnesses were called to test;- fy concerning the alleged restriction Of the coal production, and considerable evidence was introduced regarding con ditions in the coal regions during the strike. Rev. F. J. McMahon, rector of the Roman Catholic church at Miners vile, said a committee of union mine workers called upon him about four weeks after the strike began and re- quested him to counsel his parishioners against acts which might bring the strikers and the union into disrepute. Similar advice, Father McMahon said, was offered in other churches, with the result that there was no disorder in that vicinity during the progress of the strike.
 Mrs. J. Pierpont Morgan was present for short time during the morning session.

The Reichlin Murder.

Sandusky, O., May 6.-What appears
to be a clue connecting Frank Kennedy,
a man held here on suspicion, with the
Reichlin murder, developed during the
night. Yesterday, John Miller, hard
ware merchant, of Bellaire, came here.
Miller's store had been robbed between
midnight and daylight. Five revOlyers
and watch were stolen. Four Of these
were found in secondhand stores here
and the fifth was on Kennedy's person,
loaded. The watch was in his posses
sion when arrested. Miller identi-
fed the articles. 1t is reported that
several freight trains ran between
Lorain and Bellaire after twelve
o'clock Friday morning, and Ken
nedy could have taken a train out of
Lorain and arrived in Bellaire in time
to commit petty burglary, before day
light. The blood stained shoes worn by
Kennedy are number seven and half,
about the size of the foot prints left on
the flower bed at the Reichlin home.
The shoes are literally spattered with
blood and had been polished after the
man was arrested. He refused to talk
about the blood on his shoes but always
claimed he could prove that he had not
been near Lorain. Kennedy wore an
entirely new suit of cheap clothing, and
cheap underwear when caught.

THE BALTIMORE ELECTION.

In the Baltimore city election yesterday
Mr.. McLane was elected Mayor by about
500 votes. Mr.. Wachter will contest
Mr. McLane could not pull through
either Mr. Hooper or Mr.. Gephart. The
democrats carried 16 of the "a wards for
their First Branch City Council candi-
dates, have elected representatives to the
Second Branch City Council from three
councilman districts and will hay e enough
votes on joint ballot of the two branches
to make the election of democratic city
register a certainty. Mess RS. Hooper
and Gephart, the democratic candidates
for Comptroller and President of the
Second Branch, respectively, were de-
feated by Heffner and Timanus by merci-
less cutting in every ward in the city.
Timanus was really the only McComas
man on the ticket and there have been
some allegations of cutting Wachter.
The returns indicate that on both sides.
but particularly on the democratic side,
the councilmanic candidates in number
of the wards looked out for themselves
and let the rest of the ticket 90. This.
is evidenced by the fact that McLane-
carried but l3 wards, while there we're,
10 democratic councilmen elected.
