The sudden coming of cold blmls
should caueo those who are warmly
clad and who are blcwod with com
fortable homoa to remember the many
who are less fortunate , and who are
in ncod , not merely of comfort bnt of
necessaries. There are several prac
tical plans already in operation , eaido
from what the county in doing in a
formal way from fundi raised by tax
ation. There are aomo wants which
the county officials do not fool war
ranted in meeting , and there
Is abundant opportunity now
presented for these who nro
warm-hearted and openhanded
not only to bestow charity , but to of
fer help to rodor dopoudonto inde
pendent , and by rendering them torn
porary asaiatanoo to make them self-
supporting.
There are a number of ladies who
have taken aomo practical stops io
help aomo ol the needy and to make
thorn self-helpful , by gathering to
gether the children oncoa week for In-
truotion in sowing , manners nnd va
rious kinds of practical work , and by
furnishing material and superintend
ing their work are helping thorn to
clothe themselves comfortable. On
Thanksgiving day they wore- furnished
adinner together , there being about
forty in all. This work is reaching out
in various directions.
A great many are contributing arti
cles of clothing and food to bo distrib
uted by Rev. 8. G. L rnon , who is1
thoroughly posted in regard to thd
wants and conditions of a number of
families. Yesterday ho found ono
family , a widow with five children ,
who were sorely in need of a atovo ,
they having a pile of old iron which
they called a atovo , but which gave
forth no heat but much amoko. The
family were really suffering , and Mr.
Lamon seeing that there was a necessi
ty , provided ono. Such expenditures
require money , and these who have to
spare should gladly keep him (
supplied for such purposes.
There is another family , a widow
with two children , aged eight years
and three years respectively. Iho
husband and father before bin death
leased a lot and built him a houoo.
By overwork in trying to get his little
homo paid for , ho was taken sick and
died. The houao is paid for , but the
lease of the lot is up , nnd there , is
danger of their losing their little
homo. It is proposed to raise enough
money ( probably $100 will ba re
quired ) to purchase tbo lot , so that
the family may have their little homo
secured. Thia would render the fam
ily self-supporting , as the mother
by her industrious and economical
habits could raanago to keep the fam
ily trom Buffering , and the children ,
both boys , will soon bo nblo to help
her. Such a move will plaoo them in
Bach independent circumstances that
there will bo a good prospect for the
boys to arow up to bo valuable mem
bers of society and financially It would
bo a taving to the community rather
than to bo compelled to help them
nloni ? by tld-blls.
The ladies of the city should remember -
member that thpro is to bo a mooting
this afternoon at 2 o'clock at the
chapel of the Baptist church to son
for the poor. The sowing ma-
ohino agents of the city have
igreod to furnish machines for the
jo of the ladies , who should not bo
otorrod from attending on account of
nolomont weather , for they ought
uroly to bo willing to subject thorn-
elves to the slight discomfort of a
; rp ! from a comfortable homo to a
lomfortable chapel for the sake of
hose who know no such comforts.

WINNEUUCOA'S WIFE-
Details of the Ceremony of Stoning
Her to Death , as Given by
an Eye Wltnesi.
Keno Gazette.
The facts concerning the disappear
ance of VVlnnemncca'a wife have now
come to light , and are related by a
half-breed called Grizzly John , who is
fully acquainted with the circum
stances ot her death. Ho was an eye
\vltncBs of the horrible scene , which
ho described to a Gazette reporter in
pataablo English. Immediately after
the affair ho went north on a deer
hunt , from which ho returned yester
day.Tho
The evening before old Winnomno-
ca died about 100 Indians took tbo
tquaw to a largo spring , where she
had been ordered to bathe. Other
squaws stripped her and washed her
rotn hpad to foot , and then sprinkled
icr with ' fine ashos. Then they
tartod for a range of hills a few
miles from Coppersmith Station ,
'lading the iquaw , naked and bare-
oot. Upon arriving at a chosen spot
hey lit a circle of fires , which lighted
p a spsca of ground about ono hun-
rod foot in diameter. In the center
f this was a stump eight or ten
uches high , to which the trembling
quAw was securely bound by ono foot
ivith a rawhldo strap. She still hold
lor cuiid , a bright little papooeo
.bout two years old , When she had
been secured each buck sought for a
! t > rtnin number of stones about the
izo of iv nmn's fist , and laid them in a
ilo within the olrolo of fires.
When nil was ready for the sacrifice
.ho Indians joined hands and began
A monotonous chant , which lasted for
a few minutes , when ono of them
stopped into the ring aud began an
harangue , As ho continued to speak
the poor , agonized iqnaw gave vent ti
piercing shrieks , crouching upon th
grout'd and pressing tier babe to her
breast. This lasted for aorno minutes ,
Then at a signal there was' alienee except
copt the wailn of the Intended victim
Suddenly the speaker sprang toward
her and graxpod tlui child , She etrug
gled frantically but uuavailiugly to retain
tain it , and was compelled by force t
lot it to. ( The fiend hnmediatol.
strung the infant around his head
holding it by the auklo , howling lik
a demon , and being echoed by th
red duvils about him ; but tha tquaiv
did not raise her head nor omit a
slnglo sound. Suddenly ho dashed
the child upon n rock and killed It in
stantly. Thou ho resumed his plaoo
in the circle , which swung around
again , chanting as before , till the ono
who killed the baby came opposite the
pile of stones he had collected , when
the movement stopped. Stepping
forward ho picked up a stone , and go
ing to within ten feet of the crouchIng -
Ing victim ho hurled it at her with all
the strength possessed by his brawny
rod arm. The missile struck her on
the side , and was answered by a shriek
of anguish. Ho returned to his place ,
and the circle revolved again until an
other Indian was entitled to a murder
ous fling.
The wretched creature at the sUko
w s crouching in aoeh an attitude that
only her side and back were exposed ,
It was forbidden to hit her upon the
head , and the second stvago , choosing
the most available target , launched a ;
txk at her with the projectile force
of a catapult , striking tier botwonn the
shoulders , and cutting a fearfnl gash ,
from which the blood flowed down her
back in n small rivulet. lie then re
tired to his place , and the circle moved
on as boforo. Thus they continued
their murderous pistlmo until
the poor , pitiful object lay prone
upon the ground , a bleeding , sense
less mass of mangled flesh. As she
Uy upon her back , the navagowho had
harangued the band at first , raised n
largo rook over hit head with both
hands nnd Inflicted the coup do grace
by smashing her skull. Then there
was pandemonium for a few minutes ,
after which they dispersed and collect
ed wood for a pile , upon which the
remains of the luckless tquavr and her
babe was burned. A few were loft to
keep up the sacrificial fire , while the
others returned to old Winnomncca
to comfort his dying moments with
the assurance that his yourfj ? squaw
had prcoeodcd him to the Indian's
happy land ,
Forming In Norway.
A correspondent of a London pa
per writes : Of the 123,000 square
miles which Norway contains , only
3,500 are pastnrago and only 080 are
under the plow. The consequence is
that not only corn , but also butter
and moat have to bo imported in
largo quantities. From what has'been
said it will bo inferred that the conn-
try ta more pastoral than aprionUural
Tot one see very few dattlo when
passing through the country in sum

drlvo their cattle up the mountlans ,
and themselves Hvo in "saetors" or
picturesque huts of solid timborv Much
of the agriculture in Norway ii of
the most primitive character , small
wooden plows , hold by boyn and
drawn by men , being still commonly
used in many parts of the country.
The principal crops grown are oats ,
barley , rye and potatoes. Flax and
hemp are also successfully grown in
southern parts. The chief grain re
gion is the valley of Lake Mjoson ,
whore the growing of wheat has somo-
timou been attempted , bnt not with
marked success. The hay crop , though
by no means heavy , is widely diffused ,
and it is gleaned in what would gen
erally bo deemed impossible places
on narrow lodges a thousand feet
above the eoa and in deep valleys
where thpro is very little sunshine.
The hay is dried in a peculiar fashion.
It is not spread over the field , but ia
hung out a in uomo parts of Switzer
land , on fences or hurdles. Rows of
posts are sot np in the fields , and
om these lines of cord or
ire are stretched at a din-
nnco cf ono foot or
ghtoon inches from ono another.
! n these lines the hay is hung , and it
emalns there in wet weather as In
ry. in wet weatbor the moisture
drips to the ground. In fine weather
ho sun beats on the outer layers and
ho wind passes through the interior ,
ind whatever the state of the weather
he hay Is loft there till it is ready to

rom the upland regions by a novel
ontrivanca known as the "hay tele-
raph. " A rope or wire , sometimes
no thousand foot in length , slopes
own from the top of a precipice to
the bottom of the valley. A bundle
> f hay ia suspended from a ring
ihrough which the rope or wire passes ,
, nd is shot down to the bottom with
ightning speed. Bundles of brush' '
wood and fire-wood are sent down
'rom the higher ground in the same
way. The scythe generally nsod in
mowing the bay is much smaller than
; hat in nao in England. In the
Valdres route , however , near Odnaer ,
" noticed some attempts at what would
10 called Eoiontifio farming. In ono
field a mowing machine was at work ,
.nd . in another the hay had bzen
iprend out la tno English fashion and
was being turned over by a revolving
rake drawn by a horao. Both machines
were evidently of recent importation ,
nd attracted the attention of the
natives much more than that of the
oreignora. Whatever may be said of
ho Norwegians , it can not bnt bo ad
mitted that they are most ingenious
'n devising contrivances which at once
iavo their labor and take full advan
tage of the peculiar conformation of
heir country. Their timber-shoots
re another inatotco of their laborious
ingenuity. They make wood-ways or
ilidcs which extend over hundreds cf
eot from the tops of the hills to the
leaahoro.
