GREAT COAL FAMINE
IN THE NORTHWEST.


Bismark, n. D., Dec. 31.-The re-
cent cold waves and the continued
coal shortage have made the suffer-
ing In North Dakota very acute.
The government will be appealed to
with a view to compel the railroad
companies TO move coal trains.
Farmers are so hard pressed that
they are burning their outhouses for
fuel. At Cando the fuel supply works
are fully exhausted and mills and
electric light works are shut down.
At Glenburn the situation is desper-
ate and with that district liable to
billiards. many are sure to freeze to
death unless some relief comes. The
roads to the mines are almost inn
passible and farmers cannot haul
more than one thousand to fifteen
hundred pounds.
Douglas, Manitoba, Dec. 81. -
There Is little change in the situation
here. The suffering is intense. One
cargo of wood arrived a few days ago
and was readily bought up at famine
prices.
Seattle. Wash, Dec. 31.-No an
nouncement has as yet been made
as TO the date on which the Uni

The entire city is affected by the
famine. Only few cars Of coal are
arriving daily.
Mandan, Okla, Dec. 31.--The suf-
fering here owing to the scarcity of
coal is very great and things are
commencing to look serious, There
is now no timber for fuel as the
farmers have burned their outhouses
and fences.

nearly three feet through and weighs
nearly $50 pounds. Both tusks have
been broken or have disintegrated, but
even now one of them is seven feet and
three inches long, while the other is four
feet two inches. When the animal was
alive they must have measured about
nine feet in length.

ricane.
GENEVA, March 3.-Dr. Geehrs of
Mulhouse, Germany, a well-known
climber, has just had terrible Alpine
experience.
Accompanied by the guides Bener
and Max Augdenblatten he left Ter
matt in cold but beautiful weather to
make the first ascent Of the Stalhorn,
difficult peak, y, 400 feet high in the
Mischabel range. The party reached
the summit in safety, and after
short rest commenced the descent.
About a quarter Of an hour from the
top a terrific hurricane was en-
countered. The guides dug their
piolets into the ice and held on.
DR.. Geehrs was blown off the slope
into space time after time, but was
dragged back by the guides to firm
ground in each case and only with the
greatest efforts.

After an-hour the hurricane
abated somewhat, and the three
climbers, crawling on their hands and
knees, and moving only one at time,
reached a sheltered spot where they
rested, and later made their way down
to Zermatt.
Everything they had with them
even their clothing) was frozen hard
as wood. The terrible strain Of cling
ing on to the exposed slope had kept
their bodies warm and saved them
from being frozen to death in the
glacial hurricane. When they arrived
at Zermatt they could hardly walk or
speak.

Wife While Fighting Fe0erGAs'
The death of General Joe Wheeler,
the ex-Confederate veteran, has recall
ed to the minds OF a number of New
Orleans people the romantic story Of his
courtship, says the New York Tribune.
1t was in the early years OF the war.
General Wheeler had been marrying the
Federal troops near Chattanooga and
had managed to cut off their supplies
During a part of this campaign he
made his home on the Jones estate, Id
northern Alabama. There he met Mrs.
Ella Sherrod. the daughter Of Colonel
Jones, a we'll known steamboat man
Of cntebelIum days. Colonel Jones was
away at the war Mrs. Sherrod's hus-
band had died, and she was left alone
on the plantation with her crippled son
and an invalid mother. General Wheel
err fell deeply in love and often slipped
away from his command to spend
few hours with Mrs. Sherrod, although
the trips were made at the risk OF his
life.
Finally the Federal troops burned
every building on the plantation, and
Mrs. Sherrod carried her mother from
the burning house at midnight. Cen
eral Wheeler drove the Federal troops
completely out of the neighbolhood.
At the close of the war Mrs. SAerrod
consented to become Mrs. Wheeler.

on the Commission.
From the Macon Telegraph.
The political commission to be APP
pointed by the Hepburn bill would
possibly have one, not more than two
southern men on it. The rates to com
petitive markets would be made by the
five or the six northern men on the
commission. The one, or the two
southern men on it would draw their
pay and be no more effective than a
knot on log.
The president found northern cOun-
sells somewhat divided on the question
perhaps for other reasons thanthose
lust stated. 1t was necessary to use
the political south against the indus
trial south to help the matter through.
How far he has out-generaled us the
result of the vote in the house has
demonstrated.
We repeat the warning, that we are
creating a power which will rise up to
curse us. We assert again that the
greatest dangers to the republic Turk
behind popular clamOr. We declare
once more that this newspaper is more
concerned about what is right than
what is popular. What is right is
best. What is popular is too often
disastrous when it is not checked.
There are those who, whether they are
seeking Office or not, like to trot
with the gang" or, to put it another
way, swim with the tide" 1t is easy.
1t requires no effort. One has neither
to exert ones self nor to think How
comfortable it is to float and how de-
licious it is not to have to think. One
does not sink when he can float. SO
it is that it is easy to do wrong. 1t is
easy to be misled And yet some of
us must think. Some of US must fire.

20 CARS IN A TROLLEY FUNERAL

Costs Practitioners Only Five Cents
Each to Honor Priests Memory.
A street car as hearse and twenty
other street cars formed the funeral
cortege of the Rev. Martin Van de
LIAR, priest of st. Patrick's Roman
Catholic church of Chicago.
Nearly two thousand parishioners
paid five cents each to ride on the
trolly conveya nces to give final hon
ors by their presence to the depart
ed humanitarian, and thereby they
fulfilled his last expressed wish, as
set forth in the will, that the Obse-
quies over his body should be as sim
pie as possible and should reduce ex-
pense on the part of the mourners to
as small an amount as conditions
would allow.
The result was the first funeral of
it's kind in Chicago, as Father Van de
LIAR hoped, vivid protest against
the custom of spending large sums for
the last rites for the dead.

The Hardships Of Travel in Germany.

SJatIOn Masters w ear Grand Uni
forms and Big Swords.
The German station masters wear
grand uniforms of blue and gold with
a red cap and sometimes a large
sword, says writer in Everybody s

When train leaves a station the
engineer, conductor and guards stand
at attention, and each one has to sa-
Lutte the station master.
In Germany the government owns
the railroads and operates through
labyrinthine miles and miles of red
tape. In England railroad travel
seems to be form of devotion to be
undertaken alone, if possible, and al
WAYS sad silence and meditation.
In Germany it is a state functions
you ride by permission of the Kaiser
and the government, and care is taken
that you shall not forget your obliga-
tons. The cars, the stations and the
platforms are adorned with innumera-
BILE notices and warnings forbidding
you to do one thing and commanding
you to do another. You must walk
there; you must show your ticket at
the gate and again to the conductor
before the train starts. You must not
enter into dispute with the ticket agent
or trainmen, because they are govern
ment officers and to quarrel with them
is a form of lese majestic.
If you travel third class you must
be content to be herded as cattle are
at western shipping stations, and with
as little courtesy. You will see the
class lines drawn very clearly before
you in the behavior of the employees,
who uniformly hold that persons of
rank and consideration travel first
class, men and women second class,
beasts third class.
You will see very curious exhibit
tions of autocractic authority and
of Objectionable servility from the
same officers, and you will sometimes
feel your blood Jingle at the differ
ence.

railways has at last worked out a
scheme which accomplishes that re-

way the plan works.
Instead of going to New York or

and are sent on in a body.

afternoon. not by any incivility. but by
good healthy electric shock from the troll

moment and the conductor was standing
on the step OF one OF the open cars and
had Just reached for the passengers fare.
The passenger had accidentlly placed his
foot on bolt on the floor of the car i'm
mediately over the motor and the conductor
was holding 10 the side support under the
trolley, so all that was necessary was for
the two to touch hands, when the current
would be complete and then the fun would
begin. Il did begin just as the passenger
handed the conductor his fare The result
was the conductor nearly fell from the car
ana the passenger thought some one had
hit him with a piledriver. Fortunately the

the result might have been serious for botl
