airely advertised as a ilelihtlul

grant a taste of the n n y South".
But to the In. nor and dismay ol the
delegate, when they arrived at
AsliOTillo tho sceno resembled the
decripli'ii!i iveti of the Arctic re
gionn. A blinding, tree.in; blizzard
wa sweeping over th inoiintains.
the snow was riht inchos deep, and
all nature suemed ti'or.en in stnkiiii;
