New Homestead Bill.

The new Ferguson homestead
bill which will probably be
introduced this winter, provides
for a GAO acre homestead in
stead of 800 acres.
w c learn that while a provision
is made in the bill for those
having made proof on their
homesteads to be entitled to
enter an amount of land sufi-
cient to complete the GAO acres.
that indications are that this
will be modified by the land
committees and departments to
apply only to those who have
not perfected proof to their
homestead as was the case in
the 800 acre homestead bill.

AN ENGLISH BLIZZARD.
Il Took a Regiment of Soldiers q
Clear the Roads In 1886.

There was a certain Hercules en-
CINE which cut a noble figure in the
English blizzard of 1886.
To appreciate the role played by
the Hercules some idea must be
given of the effect of the storm on
other methods of travel. Fourteen
mail coaches were abandoned on as
many roads. Another was dug out
of drifts five times between Exeter
and London.
Another was buried so deep that
it took 800 men, principally sappers
and miners, several hours to make a
passage to the coach and rescue the
