Two ounces ·of fine· cut tobacco are given to each con~ict every week, manufactured in the prison. --4'\.\ .. __ _ .r.he Storm Ou& Well&, ST. PAUL, March 21,-Reports from the blizzard show it to be con· stantly growing more !Serious in char- acter. The Manitoba trains are snow bound, one at Buxton and one at Fergus Fa.lis. The drifts in the r<Jad are enormous, and ~re increas- i llg hourly. Trains on theN orthern Pacific railroad, between Fargo and Bismarck, are snow bound. Two freight trains are stuck in a drift near Valley City, and an east bound passenger train is stuck behind a freight train between Jamestown and Valley City. Snow plows and !lnow shovelers are hard at work, but the wind piles the snow back as fast as it is removed. A dispatch from Glencoe, Minn., says Hastings and Dakota are completely blocked. ·Rush C:ty, Minn., reports more snow falling in this storm thm du- ring the whole winter. It is over two feet deep at Brainard, This is the first blockade of the seasnn. .Eme••J A. Storr11 ot Vlttearro.

And there can be no doubt, that if he had chosen any one of the three paths that a.re manifestly open ·to :him as his exclusive line of life, i:Je would have reached a foremost place.
