FROZEN TO DEATH.
A Mail Carrier Succumbs to
the Cold.
THE SIERRAS' SNOWY SLOPES.
Terrible Hardships Endured by
Travelers in the Snow
bound Region.
1 Associated Press Dispatches to the Bkrai.pl
Nevada, Cal., January 6—Malcolm
F. McLeod, aged 28, and employed as a
mail carrier, was frozen to death thin
morning. Yesterday he and John Gris
sell started on snow shoes to take the
mail and express to Washington, eight
miles distant, expecting to get there by
dark. Each had a load of twenty
pounds. Two miles below Washington
McLeod began to fail. His companion
carried and dragged McLeod to within
half a mile of town, but could not get
him beyond there, as he too was rapidly
succumbing. He went into town for
relief and a party of citizens hastened to
the relief of McLeod. He was still
breathing when they reached him, but
died before they got him to town. The
carriers had become bewildered and
traveled in a circle many hours.
Reports have been received from
many points to the north .of privation en
dured by travelers. Eleven men left
the I. X. L. mine three days ago to go
to Washington, five miles distant. The
snow was eieht feet deep in places.
Being unprovided with snow shoes they
had to dig their way with their hands
through snow averaging to their
breast. They took turns as leading man,
being unable to "advance over ten
feet without rest. They were sixteen
hours getting through, and suffered
severely.
THE SNOWY SIERRAS.
Traffic Blockade Broken — Tlio
Weather Extremely Cold.
Sacramento, January G.—The traffic
blockade on the line of the Centra) Pa
cific in the Sierra Nevadas has been
raised. Today all overland trains are
running on time, so far as the California
division is concerned. Hundreds of
shovelers in the mountains will be busy
for some days. Assistant Superintend
ent Curtis, H. G. Small and Assistant
Division Superintendent Burkhalter are
examining the enow sheds with
a view to testing their security.
The enormous weight of the snow
that had slid down from the hill sides
and piled up on the shed roofs at some
places to the depth of forty feet is to be
shoveled off, and such other work done
as necessary. The thermometer at
Truckee this morning dropped to the
unprecedented figure of 22 degrees below
zero. The cold surpasses anything ever
experienced in the mountains. At Sum
mit it was 7 degrees warmer than at
Truckee.

JACOBY BROS.
a firm That Is Oolnc; a Heavy

A reporter of this paper dropped into
Jacoby Bros.' Retail Clothing Store yes
terday in search of a new suit of clothes.
This was a novel experience to the
"pencil pusher," but nothing in compar
ison with the experience of buying a
first-class suit of clothes at second-claes
price. The Jacoby Bros.' odd and end
sale is worth visiting just at present if
one wants to save money. At any rate,
there is one reporter on this journal who
feels dressed up, and as though he is
"one of the people," and it didn't cost
much either.

"For 15 years my mother has been troubled
with milk leg. Sho went to different parts of •
California, as persons said the climate might
help her, but it was of no avail, and I, being a
druggist, thought I would get her to try Hood's
SarsapariUa. Before she had taken half a bottle
she said she was improving, so sho continued un
til she took half a dozen bottles, and now she is
perfectly well. For nearly fifteen years she was
J unable to walk around, but now she can walk as
well as ever." T. F. Blake, San Francisco, with

7 AND 9 N. SPRING ST.
NEW YEAR, in its inception, turns another sp)ke
in the wheel of time, and promises to be, at the end of
the next twelve months, exactly as the force of circum
stances will make it. Some, at the end of this period, by
continuous hard work, will reap good results. Some will
mourn the vagaries of the fickle goddess. Some will fold
their hands and say, "We'll take it as it comes." And another
class will modestly follow in the footsteps of success, whether
it be gathered in a high or in a lowly calling. We are satis
fied with the three hundred and sixty-five days' work of the
year 1889, and if the year 1890 can make as good a showing
we will have no reason to complain. To brine about this
result means fifty-two weeks—six working days to the week—
hard work with no letting up. It means that the confidence
of every purchaser must not only be obtained, but held. It
means that every dollar's worth of merchandise sold at 7 and ■
9 North Spring must be exactly as represented. In thanking
our patrons for the courtesy extended us in the past, we
promise to outbid all competitors for a continuation of it in
the future, and prove our sincerity by getting down at once to
value of dollars and cents. We commence the new year with
a rush offering.
