Terrific Wind Storm. -A Denver
Ju patch of January 29th aavs: A terrific
wind storm again visited this city at an
early hour this morning. A dozen or
more buildings were demolished, while
the roofs of many more were torn off,
and in some instances carried 250 feet.
During the storm another electric light
tower was blown down, and a car on the
circle railroad was blown trom the track
and several persons seriously though
rot fatally injured. In several in
stances the roofs and debris was blown
in one direction, while in the immediate
neighborhood otheis were carried in an
opposite direction. A singular feature
was that the wind camo in gusts, each
succeeded bv a few moments calm.
TiieAVeathek. Thursday morning
"Old Probabilities," who has so long
ruled" the weather in the vicinity of
Roseburg, went to Rleep, antj as a re
sult our people were treated to a jenu
ine old fashioned snow storm. The
flakes came down gentle and slow and
covered the fields with a mantle of
snow. The boys were outr early and
took advantage of the opportunity to
pelt every one who showed himself
upor the sidewalk with snowballs.
"Old Probabilities", awakened abort
eight oi nine o'clock and thinking to
set things right, called out "Old Sol"
(no local allusion) from behind, the
clouds, and by noon the snow had
principally disappeared. The most
amusing incident which we itnessed
was that of a good Samaritan from
Deer creek who had started from home
in the early rooming with a sled-load
of wood. Before he reached the city
the snow had disappeared and Jeep,
sticky mud had taken its place. About
noon ho was seen plodding through one
ol ur streets with a disappointed look,
two badly jaded cayuses and a pile" of
wood about the size of a crow's neit,
poking for & purchaser.

Roseburg is beset with tramps at this

ordered her to get him something to eat and
what money there was in the house. She
Cave him something to eat aud before he
finished his meal some of the neighbors hap
peniug iu he took his departure. The Mar
shal was notified and arrested the tramp,
but before Mr. Marks got home he took him
to the outskirts of the city and ordered him
to leave, which he did. Monday sight
while Mr. Webb and family were attending
protracted meeting at the M. E. church, one
of these tramps broae open his dwelling
house and stole Bbme sixteen or eighteen dol
lars in money. Considering the leniency
with which this character of offenders have
heretofore been treated by juries -and law
officers of this county, it would - not be
strange if some of this fraternity which are
at present infestiug the city, should receive
treatment little less severe than was meted
out to their brethcren in . Seattle some
months ago. Whilst we are and ever have
been opposed to mob jaw and would be sorry
to see it resorted to in any civilized commu
nity, but when this class of be.ns carry
practices to extremes they are a'most certain
to bring npon themselves extreme remedies,
that life and property may be secure from
their ravages, aud should they continue their
depredations they are almost sure to leave
town under escort, with a coat of tar aud
feathers, which will render them more hide
ous, if possible, than they now apperr.

The North American Review for
February opens with a symposium in
which six prominent theologians, rep
resenting as many religious denomina
tions, give expression to their views
upon the question of the "Revision of
Creeds". Prof. Alexander Winchell,. in
an article entitled "The Experiment of
Universal Suffrage", institutes a pro.
found inquiry into the essential condi
tions of stable popuTar government,
which he findi to be, substantially, vir.
tne and intelligence; 'but these condi
tions, he maintains, are absolutely un-
ittainablo under our existing political
system, where i'a electorate either ij
norant or vicious, or both, by the mere
force of superior numbers, practically
nullifies the suffrages of the better and
wiser portion of the people, whose right
to control, the government ot the com
monwealth is grounded in . the very
nature of things. Bishop McQnaid
writes of 4 -The Decay of Protestantism,"
and in essaying to prove his thesis,
makes a very adroit use of the aimis
sionsof protestant writers. "The Polit
ical Situation"' is the joint title, of two
articles, the one by Horatio Seymour,
the other by Geo. S. Bout well, who
offer their respective views updiUthe
causes of the recent overthrow of the
Republican party. An article by Dr
D. A. Sargent, on "Physical Education
in Colleges," treats a subject of prime
importance to the welfare of the7oaths
in our higher educational institutions1'.
Finally, there are two articles on "The
