afternoon. Hundreds of business men living
in those places were unable to reach their
homes last night and were forced to seek
shelter III hotels.
The Union Railway Company, which operates
ell the trolley lines in The Bronx. after futile
effcrt TO keep it's tracks cleared abandoned it's
service. Hardly a car moved after 8 p. m. Up
TO that time one or moro cars on different lines
running managed to creep along, after the big
sweepers pushed the snow off the tracks. AS
the storm increased in fury and the wind piled
up the snow on the tracks. the giant sweep
ers were unable to make any headway.
Westchester and Unionport which are reached
by the Union Railway Company, were cut off
from the rest of the borough soon after noon.
What few trains of the Harlem River Branch
of the New-York, New-Haven and Hartford
Railroad managed to force their way through
the drifts. carried many persons to Westchester

Unionport able to dig their way out and
meanwhile there is danger Of a fresh food fam

the roads,
Last night the snow had drtfted up to the
second stories of numbers of dwellings in West
chester and Unionport.
The police had to come to the rescue of storm
bound school children and teachers In three
schools in Westchester and Unionport These
schools at Westchester-ave. and Clason
Point Road Westchester; Second-st Westches-
ter, and Avenue c., Unionport. When the princi-
pals Of the three schools appealed to Captain
Burfend for help. he put the patrol wagon into
commission. He also impressed all the large
sleighs he could borrow. BY this means nearly
two hundred pupils We're taken to their homes.
Many Of the teachers in the schools live in Man
haitian and these were carried in the sleighs TO
the Westchester station of the New-Haven Rail-
road.
For an hour. from to p. m, there was
steady stream Of men and boys walking along
the car tracks in 138th-st. in Indian file toward
the elevated road.
The storm hampered considerably the tele-
phone service. Many of the operators failed to
reach the exchanges at which they are
ployed, and those who were on duty were
PEELED to do double work.
Lincoln, Lebanon and Fordham hospitals pro-
Vided increased facilities for handling accident
and exposure cases. Accidents due TO the storm,
however, were comparatively few.

THE DREADED
PARIS APACHES
Their DARK and Terrible Deeds
Are %preadfnS Con-
,fTernoTion.

Rufianly marauders. grazing them
selves with the most alarming names,
are bringing about a reign Of terror in
Paris. Night after night outrages are
repeated by the hardened organized
criminals, some barely over fourteen
years OF age and none over thirty.
Among the bands are the Bellevllle
"Apaches," the Auteull "sllcers." the
''Black Masks" the blue Belts" and
others. The most famous anu the most
feared OF all are the "Apaches"
Just how many Apnches there are Is
an .unsolved mystery. Two Of their
most famous chiefs are now prisoners
In New Caledonia, and Milo, the origl-
nal founder Of the band, died there.
The real head Of the Apaches Is their
queen, familiarity called on account Of
her hair Golden Helmet" She always
becomes the consort of the Apache
who Is chief for the time being, and she
controls the destlnles OF the band. She
does not participate In the exploits OF
the band, but reaps the fruit of victory
and has even pretensions TO fashion.
Golden Helmet has been the cause Of
nearly fifty duels between Apaches In
the past two years, and she lmpartlaIly
gives her hand to the victors.
The methods of the Apaches are sim
pie. There Is no attempt at decoy or
deception. Any thoroughfare will do

victim. OF sudden some six or eight

And the De soto County News for One

For the autumn season now at hand
the most valuable paper to you will
be the New York thrice-a-week World
because it offers you more at the price
than any other paper published any
where in the world.
This is a time of great events. We
are having great wars, and other chan
ges Of a startling kind are occurring
both at home and abroad The thrice
a-week World comes to sou every 9TH
err day, except Sunday, with all the
news fully, accurately and promptly
| told.
The thrice-a-week World is fair in
its political reports. You can get the
truth from its columns whether you
are Republican or Democrat, and that
is what you want.
The thrice-a-week World always has
serial story running, and it is always
first class story by first class au-
thor. The thrice-aweek world pub
fishes better fiction than any other
newspaper in the United States. Spec
ial attention is also given to markets,
and there are many other valuable fea-
lures.

subscription price is only 81 per year,
and this pays for 1855 papers. We offer
this unequalled newspaper and the De

General stoessels at Colombo.

Colombo, CeylOn, Feb. 4-GeneraI
StoesselS, former commander at Port
Arthur, and the Russian officers and
those accompanying him, arrived here
today from Japan by way of Shang-
hai, on board the French line steam
er Australien.
In an interview with the correspon-
dent of the Associated Press the gen
eral denied the statement published to
the effect that Port Arthur was sur
rendered prematurely. He was especial
ly indignant at the statements made
by London newspaper Jan. 25, in a
dispatch from Pekin that there was at
the time Of the surrender $4,000 able
bodied men in Port Arthur, capable of
making a sOrtie, hundreds of officers
all well nourished, plenty of ammuni-
tion, the largest magazine being un-
touched, and full to the roof, and that
there was an ample supply of food for
three months, even if no fresh sup
plies were received. The general
characterized these statements as un-
justied and not supported by facts.
Colonel Reese, who was among the
negotiators for the surrender of the
fortress, said:
THE garrison could not have held
out a moment longer. 1t would have
been murder. Only Is roubles re.
mained in the military treasury out of
100000 at the commencement Of the
siege. Four hundred men were dying
daily at the hospitals principally from
wounds and scuryy. General Kon-
dratenko was the hero of the hour"
