Reno, Nev., Jan. 17. Today is the
fifth anniversary of the snow blockade
ol' five years ago, and from present in
dications another one Is about due. It
has (been snowing here since early
this" morning. Twelve Inches of snow
have fallen, and ten Inches remain as
reminder of winter. The snow Is
falling very fast. It is eight feet on
the level at Truckec, and still piling
up. Three feet and a half havo fallen
today. Eighteen, feet is reported at
the summit. Passenger trains due here
at 6:15 this morning left Blue Canyon
at 6 this evening behind t'ho rotary,
'but with what success remains to - be
seen. The passenger train wrecked
at White Plains yesterday pulled Into
Reno this afternoon, closely followed
by(the regular train today. Both pulled
out for Truckee, but did not expect to
get over the hill tonight. All freight
trains on the Central Pacific are aban
doned. Snow Is falling faster now than
at any time for five years. Later re
ports say if the storm continues four
'hours longer the road will be blockad
ed. The wind Is blowing a hurricane at
Truckee and Blue Canyon.
us bv one Whose accurate analysis of
them and vivid portrayal makes them
real people. .The eager Interest and close
attention of his hearers proved thei
appreciation of President Chapman
series of word pictures as he gave the
characters in "King Lear."
All who heard him must have gained
a deeper insight into the motives and
dramatic actions of the play, even
though it had been read many times.
The audience especially enjoyed the
allusions to modern conditions an
questions of present interest which
showed him to be thoroughly in touch
with the times.
In delineating; the character of Lear,
he said; "What he lacked was man
llnessllness. It is a lack with whldh
we as American citizens can reel
great deal of sympathy, for it Is our
national failing. It does not mean that
we are cowards, who do not dare to
go out upon the field of battle and die
that is not true. But when it comes
to defending, day by day, the rights
and liberties which we have won upon
the battle field; when It comes to de-
mandlng of our publlo servants that
they serve us truly; when it comes to
keeping up the dally struggle with vice
and clvio crime, then we sit down in
our cowardice and allow the vile to
triumph over us."
In regard to Kent he said: "Kent
Is the man whom we all like to hear
and read about, but whom we should al
hate if we had him to deal with in
dally life. He is the man who always
tells the truth."
No one can afford to lose the remain
lng lectures of President Chapman,
whose presence In the city Is so wel
come.
