The second engine jumped the tracli

Vessel Adrift In Ice.
New York , Feb. 8. Huge ice floes
fill the harbor and extend down into
the lower Lay , making navigation dlf
flcult and dangerous for steamers and
almost impossible for other craft.

tended the ice fields and numerous
Yessels are fast in their grip. A vos
Eel was sighted from Sandy Hook
drifting out to sea In the ice. Appar
ently she was a fishing schooner
Another schooner was standing by
and continued to make flare lights as
the two drifted along. The lifesavers -
savers could do nothing to aid the
Ice-bound craft.
SEVERE DLIZ2ARD WAS THREAT-
f ENED EARLY TODAY.
THE TRAIN TRAFFIC IS HARD HIT
Freight Trains Were Abandoned To
day on Account of the Difficulties In
Traversing the Drift-Filled Cuts , and
Passengers Were Delayed.
A strong and Increasing northwest
wind early today threatened , by blowIng -
Ing and drifting the heaps of powdery
snow that had fallen over northern
Nebraska and southern South Dakota ,
to spring a blizzard of oxtromp sever
ity throughout thin section of the
country. As a result of the drifts that
had been formed during the night ,
passenger trains arriving In Norfolk
this morning from Uoncsteel and from
Long Pine were nn hour and a half
behind time , snow plows had to Uo
sent out to meet thtim In order to
bring them In that nearly on schedule
time , several freight trains wore aban
doned altogether and there wore fears
that , If the storm continued to rage
and to Increase , live stock might suf
fer to a considerable extent and that
humanity , Itself , might como out of
the day a good deal the worse for
wear.
With the snow that had crusted and
remained from almost thirty Indies
of fall during the past month , and the
light stuff that fell all day yostonlay
and throughout last night , the wind
from the northwegt had an easy time
in scraping up enough this morning to
block railway tracks in the cuts and
to render travel anywhere more or
loss dlfllcult.
Cold prevailed to a sufficient degree
to create suffering for those who had
to bo out. As a matter of fact , the
thermometer registered on the higher
side of zero at all times but the driv
ing wind pierced through and through
with what cold there was , until the
suffering was quite as complete as
upon some of the days when the mer
cury dropped 'down to thirty below.
Freight trains north to Bonesteol
were eliminated. A snow plow was
sent out on that line during the night
to meet the Donesteol passenger train
and slice a path for It to Norfolk.
This train arrived a little more than
an hour and a half late nnd the train
from the west was about two hours
delayed.
During the day the tracks have been
kept clear so that , with no worse
drifting , little trouble Is anticipated
by Superintendent Reynolds for this
division of the road.
Main Line Train Late.
The Dendwood-Chlcago cnstbound
passenger train due in Norfolk at
12:15 : , was reported two hours late at
9 o'clock this morning , and losing
more time constantly. With the snow
that had fallen In the western end of
the state and in the Black Hills , It was' '
impossible for the big train , even with
the best of locomotives , to hold Its
own In the drifts and wind.
Shortly before 11 o'clock the train
had not left Long Pine nnd was not
expected in Norfolk before late in the
afternoon.
The two local freights westbound
out of Norfolk were annulled.
Cold Wave Coming.
The weather prediction this morn
ing was for fair weather tonight and
a cold wave in the east portion. Res
idents of the northwest believe that
they have had about all of the , cold
wave they're entitled to , but the
weather man and the spot on the sun
disagree , evidently.
The Chicago , St. Paul , Minneapolis
& Omaha freight train due in Norfolk
early this morning from Sioux City ,
had to give up the race and was
turned around at Wayne , to return
from its starting point.
The passenger train on the Chicago ,
St. Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha rail
road duo in Norfolk at 10:50 : , was bad
ly delayed. It was blocked by a huge
drift between Winsldo and Hoskins
and a snow plow had to go to Its assistance
sistanco before the train could get
through the cut
Union Pacific Blocked.
There was no train either In or out
on the Union Pacific road today. The
freight is blocked at Oconeo and the
passenger made an Ineffectual attempt
this morning to get out of town. It
was stuck in a drift and returned to
the city. The passenger can not leave
until a snow pjow arrives from Columbus -
umbus to dig out the drifts , which
will not bo before night.

' DESERT SHEEP HERDERS.
Tliclr Lonely , Drniiry Ilf - Toniln to
Drive Tlioin Cm/ ) .
Do you realize what It means to
watch 0,000 sheep alone In the desert ?
You have read weird , grewsome stories
of the horror of the military lighthouse
keeper's life , but compared to the days
of the Mexican shepherd those of the
average keeper of the light are tilled'
with gityety and noise. ICven with
their one or two dogs the shepherds
often go Insane , and were It not for the
tompany of their shaguy collies the
lunacy among Ihem would rise to nn
almost Incredible percentage. If wo are
to believe those who have followed the
sheep In the desert nnd therefore may
be supposed to know.
Once In old Santa Ke , N. M. , 1 met a
man who for twelve years had follow
ed the sheep. Ills work was done. All
day long he sat In a chair In the rear
of a little dobe store , crouched over ,
gibbering to himself. Ideating nn Idiot.
Die still saw his sheep swaying like a
great white wave among the .sage
brush , nnd ever In his ears sounded the
killing monotone of their blentH. One
boy , though fifteen years of age. Is
mentally no further advanced than the
average child of live. Ills father Is u
Bhephoid , his mother died when he was
four years old , and his father took him
out upon the range. All his life has
been spent among the sheep. He Is one
with them todny.
How Is It possible , then , you ask , that
men are to be found willing to watch
them ? It Is very easy. Sheep herding
Is a laz.y Job at best , and the "greaser"
la the laziest creature on earth. For $20
a month he Is willing to Hit In the sand
and listen to the never ending bleating
until the little mind he has gives way
and they fetch him In from the range
Insane. He IH glad to take the chance
for $ -0 a month.
The greaser Is not the only shepherd
In the west. On the vast ranges of Ne
vada and Wyoming you may run ncross
an occasional college man tending the
sheep. Once , Indeed , n college professor ,
111 of consumption , undortpok to follow
6,000 bloaters for the summer. In au
tumn they found him Insane , on his
bands and knees among the sheep ,
bleating with them. Dny after dny his
eyes behold only a brilliant turquoise
ky. In which hangs n sun of brass ; nn
occnn sweep of sage flecked snnd and
a slowly moving , compact mass of
sheep. Ills ears hear no sound save the
steady "Itnn , ban ! " dny aud night , af
fecting him as the Chinese criminal of
ancient dnys wns affected by the regu
lar tap , tap of n hidden drum.

1O.HOO.OOO KKKH l.nHl Year.
The western part of Virginia lias
been kno\yn for years IIH n great sec
tlon for raising poultry , and the Indus
try Is Increasing at n rapid rate , says a
Richmond sficclul dispatch to the Chicago
cage Inter Ocean. The shipment of
Thanksgiving turkeys and chickens for
all seiiHons brings In a considerable
revenue. The Ilnrrisonburg NUWH re
cently compiled the llgures of the eg
production of KockhiKham county for
tl * > past year. It finds that UO.OOO
crates were .shipped to market , n total
of 10,800,000 eggs sold from one county
In a single year. This does not Include
many thousands consumed on the
( anus where they nre laid.
The lowest price of the year was 14
to in cents n dozen , and In December
82 cents was paid. The average for the
past year was 22 cents. The profit from
eggs alone to Rockin hqm county
farmers was nenrly $200,000. Virginia
is able to put aside a very creditable
"nest egg" from the profit of a year's
work of her industrious hens.
