The Ktornu After an open and pleasant winter up to the 2d of January, Hood River is ho v experiencing an old-fashioned miow storm. It commenced snowing Wednesday morning about 4 o'clock and continued . 80 hours without a break, the snow in this time piling up to the depth of about three feet. At Portland there was a heavy fall of snow and street cars were blockaded, but above The Dalles it was not sufficient to cause any delay in the moving of trains. The rotary snow plow kept the road open between The Dalles and Portland Wednesday, and the evening passenger train passed up two hours late at this point. Engineer Tucker, in charge of the engine with the snow plow, died suddenly of heart disease while at work Wednesday evening iwsar Bridal Veil, and this caused delay In keeping the track"open. The snow drifted badly in thecuts in the vicinity of Cascade Locks and below to Trout dale. The morning train left Portland at 10 o'clock Thursday, but got stuck in the drifts near Troutdale. At 4 o'clock in the afternoou it started back towards Portland. The enow plow passed up the road Thursday afternoon, and Friday moruing the delayed pas senger train lying at The Dalles was brought down, 24 hours late, and breakfasted at the Mt. Hood hotel, leaving here for Portland at 8.30. Station Agent Henn informs us that the railroad company sent out a steam boat from Portland Thursday, with passengers and freight, but the boat was unable to come any further than Dobson's Lauding on account of the slush ice iu the river. The telegraph wire was not working Friday below Troutdale. As we go to press (Friday, at 1 o'clock) it Is still snowiug, but coming more in showers, with occasional streak of sunshiue, indicating that the storm has about spent its force. :'. Very few people from the country have ventured to towu since the storm, and the roads are hardly broken. In town good roads have beeu made with snow plows and good trails opened in all directions. Shall We Have a Public Library! Hood Rivek, Jan. 3, 1895. Editor Glacier: At the suggestion of one cf the lodges at this place, there is an ef fort being made to form a public li brary. Plans have been matured as follows: Each organization in the val ley, whether fraternal, religious or oth erwise, is asked and urged to obtain from among its members as many dol lars, or iu lieu thereof, bound volumes, as there are members in the organiza tion, subject to two exceptions mem bers not residing in the valley need not be counted, and those persons mem bers of more than one organization may choose the one through which they will contribute, and need not be counted in the others. : , Societies thus contributing will have control of the library. Contributing societies may report their members to the librarian, who will allow them to take books free from the library, under prescribed rules, the organization becoming responsible for the return of the books. ' Persons not having access through the different societies may . pay the membership fee and deposit one dollar in addition as a guarantee for the re turn of the books taken. Non-members will have access to the library un der certain conditions. In one way or the other it is desired that every family in town, and indeed of the valley also, become members of the library association and then have free access o the library. A good public' library will not only be a standing advertisement for the place but will be of incalculable benefit to the community itself, and especially to the younger portion. But compar ative few persons have aecess to a li brary of any size, and books are uni versally conceded to be the greatest educators of the age. Shall we, then, provide this means of education for the rising generation? The responsibility rests upon each member of the com munity, and the committee makes an earnest plea that each will do what they can for the library. If all do this, we will have a respectable start toward imrv4sired end. . All contributions has" beenamJfoiMH' Nlckelsen.who respectfully, - ,. DIED. At her home iu Hood River.

How King Milan Filled His Depleted Purse by Shady Methods. One hundred and sixty thousand dol lars per annum is the income conceded to ex-King Milan of Servia, by his son and by the national treasury in con sideration of his quitting the country and betaking himself once more to Paris or some other distant capital. It is now some months since he left the French metropolis to all intents and purposes penniless, numerous, judg ments put against him and a quantity of so-called debts of honor unpaid. His credit was exhausted and he was, financially speaking, on his beam ends. It may be remembered, says a writer in the Philadelphia Press, that when he first abdicated he stipulated for a large annuity, which was granted to him. On two occasions subsequently ho obtained lartre lumrj sums from the Servian army to defray pressing debts. Then he commuted nis annuity lor a third lump sum of large dimensions, sold his office and dignities in Servia for a fourth sum, his Servian citizen ship for a fifth and finally obtained from the; czar a gift of two million rubles in return for a solemn under etanding never under any circumstances to return to Servia. It was not very long before he had squandered all his money at the card table, upon the turf and in the demi-monde. . , - -- ' Finding himself without resources, he effected a reconciliation with his wife in the hope of inducing her to come to his assistance, she being -very rich, Queen Natalie, however, knows her hus band too well and declined to do any thing whatever for him until he had eaten humble pie by himself demand ing the annulment of . that divorce which he had taken so much trouble to obtain, and even then she refused to give him any of her own money, but merely offered to use her influence with her son . to grant him a new al lowance. Seeing that young Alexan der was somewhat slow about comply ing with the request, and his position at Paris without either money or credit being absolutely untenable, he, in de fiance of all the promises which he had made alike to the czar, to the Austrian government and that of Servia, re turned to Belgrade, where his pres ence brought about a couple of minis terial crises and led to no end of diffi culty. And he has refused to budge from there until his financial exigen cies are complied with. I suppose that unless the tired Ser vians depute some one to put him out of the way by means of knife, pistol or poison, we shall in course of time see him once more going through the same process. That is to say, he will commute his present income for a lump sum, squander, it and then return to Belgrade and upset one or two more ministries, disturbing things general ly until again bought off. KEPT AHEAD OF THE TRAIN. A Moose Able to Travrt at the Kate of Forty Miles an Hour. ' The morning express on the Bangor & Aroostook from Houlton had a race with a . moose one morning recently, says the ' Boston Herald. Between Island Falls and Crystal, about thirty miles out of Houlton, the engineer saw a huge moose on the track, watching the approaching train and evidently undetermined whether to derail it or jump off and let it go about its busi ness. The engineer blew a succession iharp . blasts with the whistle, and word trofrSSS? eviuenuy took ior ibo and the train. himself and, with the train not more" tarned, dozen rods from him, he started dowiri tne track, Tne train wasXmoving at the rate of forty miles an hotSybut the moose -flew like the wind and kcpvjiis distance! The passengers heard thi warning blast of the whistle, and knew that something was on the track, but not until the train reached Crystal sta tion did they learn that they had been racing with a moose. For a quarter of a mile the big ani mal kept up the almost incredible pace necessary to keep ahead of the train, and' then, as if satisfied that he had convinced his competitor that there wasn't anything in the steam engine line, that was coming into Aroostook could outdo him in a sprinting match, ho left the track and plunged into the woods without so much as looking be hind him. ' ' THEY ARE MEN AT TEN. The Boys Have Bat a Short Childhood Corea. la In Corea the boys are called men as soon as they reach the age of ten. They receive their final names at that age, and assume the garments of full-grown men, all except the horsehair hat, which they cannot put on until they have passed through a period of probation, Permission to wear the horsehair hat is the final act of transforming the small Doy into a real,- sure-enough man though he doesn't look it. - - - - Such a short childhood may, at first thought, posseses a charm for boys in our colder climate. But it will be quickly understood that making boys into men as soon as they are old enough to feel that they would like to be men is not a wise idea. . The Coreans, al though possessing a certain degree of a queer kind of civilization, are not a people to be patterned after. In Corea, if a young man's parents are not rich, he can never hope to become so by his own efforts. And, if he is not a member of a noble family he can never hope to reach an exalted position.- As for cour age the Coreans have never shown much of that. The Corean men are not in themselves a good argument for a brief childhood. '- . .' Frogs Are Wonderful. The toad is a higher animal than the frog, because it gives birth to little air breathing toads, whereas the frog lays eggs that produce flsh-hkc tadpoles. But the frog in certain respects is the most wonderful creature in the world. Think of a vegetable-eating fish with gills that turns into an air-breathing land animal, developing teeth rnd be coming a carnivorous quadruped. That is the life history of the frog. Runaway. A runaway occurred Saturday after noon that was quite exciting. Mr. Boardman had started for his home on the East Side with a load of wheat, and when he got opposite Mrs. Oiler's residence, in the eastern part of town, discovered that he had forgotten some thing and went back to Hanna & Wol-j fard's store, leaving his team standing in the street. A railroad train crossing the bridge frightened the team and they started to run, turning up the state road. John and W. H. Buskirk were walking along the road, and the team was close upon them before they were aware that it was without a driver. John Buskirk threw up his hands and tried to stop them, but only succeeded in making themsby towards the side of the road, by Grant Evans' house, where the wagon struck a big oak tree. The wagon was wrecked and wheat took a tumble. The horses freed themselves from the broken harness and dashed on, but were soon after wards caught. John Buskirk man aged to save himself by dodging behind the big tree, while his brother jumped the fence into Grant Evans' yard. If the team and wagon had passed be tween fhlTtreiTand fence, both men might have been crushed to death, as the teatn, a powerful one and a heavy wagon, were under full - headway. W. H. Buskirk was somewhet bruised in getting over the fence, and as he landed a single-tree from the wreck of the wagon came whizzing near his head. It was a narrow escape. Both men had served through tne war or the rebellion, but say they never had a closer call in their lives. . r Free Nomenclature. : H. C. Bateham of the Columbia nur sery announces that any person who has varieties of apples which be is de sirous of learning the names of, may be accommodated if he will leave spec' mens at the nursery, and if they can not be correctly named here, they will be sent to Washington, D.
