The Northern fight the Pacific railway equips all locomotives with flangers, attached near the wheels, which forces the snow from the rails to the wayside, the road superintendent states. At all. terminals wedge plows are stationed, awaiting calls from any section. In the mountain districts, the rotary plow 'is used, which furrows through the snow, whirling it from the tracks. Simflar methods are used by the Minneapolis, St. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie systems. The former road has most of its trouble in its 250 miles of railroad in South Dakota ,says W. H.

King Christian, of Denmark, is her nephew and Queen Alexandra, of England, is her sister, Fifty vears a resident of Russia, Maria Feodorovna's life In that country was one of vicissitudes, - Four different conspiracies against her life were frustrated by the imperial au- thorities. When the Bolsheviki over- threw the Kerensky government they confiscated her palace in Petrograd and reduced her to destitution. She went to live in the Crimea, whence later she made her way to Constan- tinople and England, where she was welcomed by King George and Queen Mary, Of recent years she has been living in Denmark. Commenting on her presence in this country a local news- paper says: “It is easy to understand that the mother of the murdered Czar should use all her influence to thwart any kind of agreement made between the country of her birth and Soviet Russia. In spite of her 75 years, Maria Fodorovna is hale and hearty ! and in the possession of her faculties. Imperial Russias everywhere recog- nize her as the head of Monarchist Russia, ‘She has of late received a veritable shower of letters from every corner of the world congratulating her on her attitude towards King Victor Emanuel, of Italy, when that Kking \pain am official visit to Denmark dur- ing the summer. She studiously kept away from all official and private festivities arranged in honor of the King's visit, and it was officially an- nounced that Her Majesty was indis- posed and unable to be present. THough informed by King Christian that Maria Feodorovna’s indisposition was her unwillingness to meet with a royal personage who had received M. Tchitcherin, Soviet foreign minister, as his guest, King Victor Emanuel in- sisted upon paying her a private visit at her summer residenge. He motor- ed, in'the company of King Chris- tian, to her home but Maria Feodoro- nova curtly informed the royal Vvisi- tors that she refused to receive them, and the two Kkings had to return to the capital without getting even the This will be the BIGGEST EVENT ever known in the history of Millinery retailing in this vicinity.
