O.
AN IOWA SNOW-STORM.
The Way It Snowed In that State Twenty
Years Ago6
The big,rest and most severe snow
storm ever known la this part of the
country', within. the recollectiou, of our
oldest inhabitants,. came on in 16.56,
twenty. years ago yesterday. It' ex
teuileci over the greater part of Iowa, a
portion ol Nebraska and aticota.
The.etorni prevailed for two clays and
two nights, during whielt time it was
almost impossible for a person te see
Lail way across a, street, and a portion
of the time the snow is represented as
having clime down in such isolid, sheets
as to effectually conceal from view olio's
hand held at arm's laugh beton, his own
eyes. Tee tirst day after the storm
ceiteed the wind shifted to the north and
blew a perfect gale, dritting the snow
badly and lorining a crust upon it of
sufficient streugth to bear the weight ol
a man easily enough..
This region of country was quite new
twenty years ago, anti wild game of all
kinds Wad very plenty. Direeily alter the
snow storm above alluded to, the set
tlers started on the hunt after deer.
Tee snoW Was deep and She cruet
scarcely heavy enough to bear the
weight of the deer, and when pursued
tuey sought escape in flight, aud they
would break through the snow crust
and ntake very little progress. The only
weapons the settlers used when huntiug
the deer at that particular time were au
ax and butcher-kuile--the termer used
itt knocking tue game down when over
taken, and the latter in severing the jug
ular. this manner settiers
supplied themselves with a sullicient
ainettat of venisou to last their families
for soveral months.
Alter Lae heavy sterm referred to
Sioux City was couipletely blocked ou't
irom Communicatiou with tiny point.and
it was luily live weeks before stages
could get turough with auy of the mails.
L. E. Cirab,3r, brother-in-taw of Mr. John
'logy, but. who at that time was a sin&
man, had the contract for carrying matte
between Sioux City and Council Bluffs,
and tor some days alter the severe storm
abated he had a bard time of getting
his route opened. Re took a numuer of
yoke ol cattle, and for several days
used them in tramping down the. huge
(trine on the Missouri bottom in the vi
cinity of Sergeant Bluffs, filially suc
ceeding in making a road over which the
stage could pass.
Many amusing anecdotes are related
by one ol our old settlers as having oc
curred during that fearful blizzard. We
will mentiou a single one. Gen. Leach,
then Receiver of the United States Land
Office here, started from his office. a log
cabin, standing where now stands D.
Sone it Co.'s wholesale building, to his
residence on upper Douglas street.. The
General lost his hat immediately on ven
turing out cot doors, but he laughed at
the tury ol the storm and kept on.
There were at that time few buildinge
stauding either on Fourth or Douglas
streets, and there were not many visible
landmarks tor the Goneral to lollow to
serve as a guide home. It is no wonder
then that, after having traveled in the
leells of the siorin for a considerable
time, he lound himsell run to bank down
near where the Chicago iluitse now
stands. The General, as a mistter ot
course, was very cold, having suilered
considerately from being out only a short
time.
Ati stated, be was bareheaded,. and
having no gloves upon his hands, ne
could not give his head that attention
inigat have done had his hands been
well gloved. 'fee recut was that by tile
time tile General reacned home ho .was
about exhausted, his eairs and lingers
were soinewitat trusted, and Ms head,
perpendicularly, was lengtuened 'OVUM'

le those days the few settlers in
Sioux City bail acenniulated considera

were illy PrOVided Willi shelter. They
stood humped up in groupa, and when
they beeitine thirsty they atrayed in

An examination was made as to the
extent of his injuriee, and two bullet
holes were found upon his'person one
of the projeetiles having entered' the
right arm and the other Dad penetrated

wounded man, wile was identified as
Edward Shaughnessy, was taken to the

Subsequently be was removed to Wag.

Shauglineasy lingered uutil about 5
o'clock yesterday morning, when death
put au end to his sufferings. Up to the
time of our going to press, there had
been bat very HUI testimony adduced
before the Court ot investigation; but
from what we have been able to learn,
some titne ago Ineaughneeey became
acquainted Willi. an autress known aa
,Fanny Darretson, whit wao at that time
playing at Mr. MeDituiel's Theater in
Cheyenne.
, Shaughnessy was employed at the
time by the Union Paoifie Railroad
company, and, up to the time of his
meeting Garretson, was knowu to be a.
.very exetnplary young man. The fire
, which destroyed McDaniel's Theater on
the 4th day cot July, 1675, closed the tlae
atrical season tor the Limo beiug. and
Garretson went to Laramie City to till
an engagement. At that place she aud
Shaughnessy were legally married.

SEWING MACHINES.
THE AMERICAN CENTENNIAL, ,
1876 t
Wiloolor&Wilsoll
VIdTbRIOUS!
Again the 'Wheeler & Wilson Sewing MIS-,
chines triumph over the world. The Gentee
1 aial Commission have officially announced
the awards, and decreed for the New Wheeler
& WilSon TWO DIPLOMAS OP HONOR AND TWO
MEDALS OP ADMIT. Ilia IS a double victory,
! and the highest award which it was in the
power of the Contennial authorities to bestow.
' No other sewing Machine received ouch a
I recognition. More than thirty of the best pro
ducers of machines in this and other countries
I entered for competition, and at Philadelphia
1. in 1876, as at Vienna in 1873, and at Paris in
L8G7. Wheeler & Wilson lead the list. After la
I careful, rigorous, and exhaustive examina
tion, thejudges UntIllimously decided that the
superior excellence of these machines de
served more than ono medal or diploma, and
eonsequently, they recommended TWO OS
SACO. Tho Centennial Commission unani.
mously ratified the action of theiudges, and
the public will indorse the decision of these
' ablest,of mechanical experts. A elaim oil
equally distinguished honor for any other
sewing machine is only an attempt to hood
' wink tho people. React the following, which,
stamps the "New Wheeler & Wilson" as the
TANDA.RD EIWING MACHINS OP VIZ WORLD.
From the Official Report
Awards to Wheeler az Wilson.
L A Medal and Diploma for " New Wheeleg
I Wilson Sewing Machine," for the following
reasons:
di A Locksstitch Sewing' MacNiue
nsur passed in the fine workman
ship of its "arts, and posseentne
great originality, great adapts..
y to different clauses of world
both on cloth and leather, beauty
of stitch, ease and rapidity of mow
tion, and completeness of dams
play.1
2. A Modal and Diploma for "The New
Wheder it SUWIllif Maehiae" tor
66 Superior qualify of work in
Leather Stitcliing.
These New Machines embrace the elementa
of the original Viheeler & Wilson Maelline,
with important adltions and variations, and 4
differ from other lock stitch Machines in hav.
lug a Remy look and Bobbin la part of the
shuttle; an independent take-up; an sato.
'natio under-tension; ea improved form ot
-
feed, mut a better distributioa of parts.
The poinfts of superiority of these Machinee
over other Lock-stitch Machines are very IRV
meroue bud iniportaut.
1. The Rotary Hook is far easier, quietel
and more rapid aud certain in action thaa the
vibrating shuttle, aud hence producee a more :
regular and even stitch, and does far niers
welt with less fatigue of the operator.
2. The Rotary Hook system is more durable
'and wears far less than the shuttle system, ars
that the saving in time and repairs soon equala
the price of the Chine.
8. The simple automatic under tension, or
clamping of the lower thread while the " take..
up'' acts, enables the operator to regulate ths
lock of the two threads while the machine is
in motion, by simply moving a lever, aa Can.
be done with no shuttle machine.
4., The independent take-up, which draws me
the thread when toe needle is mite' the mate
rial, prevents the chafing of the thread be.
tween the needle aud the material, and per
mits the use of se large a thread that tin:-
needle hole id entirely filled, making a firmer
and more beautitul stitch awl a water-tight
seam in waterproof gows, and as the stitch
is drawn up, when the feed is not acting, the
material ia not " puckered," a point of especial
importance in braiding, binding and general
sewing, etc.; the rolling eyelet prevents the.
friction of the thread, and allows it to flow
with uniform twist and evenness, and the ten
sion or lock of the threads being properlr ad
justed, the seam with any length of stitch
passes from the thinnest to the thickest mate
teal& or vice versa, without variation.
5. The needle is sot by simply placing lit al
position; the under thread is much more easlly
wound and arranged than with the shuttle
machine: the bobbia is not threaded as is the
shuttle, and being much larger requires filling
less often, and,pernnts the use of a cord in
place of thread, which is important for many
purpose&
6. The range of work with these machines is
far greater than with any other, beiug on any
material from the lightest gauze to the heav
iest leather, with silk, linen or cotton thread.
7. The parts of these machines are perfectly
interchangeable, and their form, distribution,
balance and movement, secure not only the
greatest durability and speed, with the least
power, hut also the greatest ease and con.
venience of management, and their superior
system, devices, material and workmanship
constitute them the culmination of Sewing
Mechanism and the standard Sewing Mae'
of the world.
USES OF TILE ITIACIIINES.--Evcrf
kind of stitching', from that required, in the
heaviest manufacturing to the lightest and
most delicate possible, may be done to perfee.
tion with the No. 6 Machine; but anthers are
certain purposes to which the No. 7 and th
No. 8 are more eepecially suited by reason el
size or form, tome of the various kinds
work to which each machine is particularly
adapted may be classified as follows: 4
