Phyllis Bottome, English writer (1884-1963). 100 YEARS AGO BIG STORM BURIES TRAINS The storm that swept into the valley yesterday, accompanied by one of the liveliest falls of snow seen here for a long time, was a violent blizzard in the mountains and. quickly buried the railroad tracks deeply with drifted snow, stopping all the trains. Three rotaries, struggling to keep the road open in the face of the fresh, fall of snow seven feet deep, were all stalled near Summit. Trains 2 and 44.

were turned around in Whitefish and sent back to the coast.

Judge affirms chairman in Crow Tribe leadership dispute BILLINGS AP) A Montana tribal judge has recognized one of two contenders for the chairmanship of the Crow Tribe in order to allow tribal business to continue during a dispute over the position. The Billings Gazette reports that Alvin Not Afraid will remain chairman during ongoing litigation to determine the outcome of a January vote to remove him and secretary R. Knute Old Crow from office.

Tribe vice chairman Carlson Goes Ahead orchestrated the effort to take the chairmanship from Not Afraid, while vice secretary Shawn Backbone asserts he is the tribe's new secretary in place of Old Crow. The judge said Thursday that a preliminary injunction to stop Not I ADVICE Stuck in a stinky performance Dear Annie: My companion and I recently went to a very popular play that had no intermission. We were sitting in the first row of the balcony seats, and there was a short wooden wall in front of us to keep things from falling over the edge. But the result was that there was no room to move my feet and legs. I In fact, my knees were pressed into this wall, causing great pain because I have arthritis and sciatica.

To make matters worse, the woman sitting on the other side of my friend had uncontrollable flatulence that was smelly and disgusting. My companion tried to lean away, into me or over the balcony, but could not escape the smell. I could smell it, too, but was far enough away that it was milder. My companion finally couldn't take it anymore, and we had to leave halfway through the performance. The expensive show was sold out, so we.

could not change seats. These balcony seats were as expensive as the ones downstairs. Flatulence is a very embarrassing topic to talk to anyone about, so we didn't search for an usher. When we got out, we wondered whether we should buy antacids and bring them back to everyone who was seated in that area. I'm thinking of asking for my money back.

Stuck in a Seat Dear Stuck in a Seat: That stinks! Passing gas in public is to be avoided, especially when we are seated in confined quarters, such as at live performances or on airplanes. One suggestion would be to politely ask people who are passing gas to excuse themselves and go to the nearest restroom. The hope is that their awareness that you smell their unpleasant odor is. enough to put an end to it. If not, you can complain to the theater or the flight attendant DATEBOOK Today is the 61st day of 2019 and the 72nd day of winter.

TODAY'S HISTORY: In 1836, Texas declared its independence from Mexico. In 1877, the U.S. Congress declared Rutherford B. Hayes the win- 1 ner of the 1876 presidential election, despite the fact that Samuel J. Tilden had won the popular vote.

Buyer found for Montana coal-fired power plant 7 BILLINGS (AP) The Federal Energy and Regulatory Commission has approved plans by Rocky Mountain Power to sell its coal-fired power plant in southern Montana to Big Horn Datapower Holdings LLC. The Billings Gazette reports that the price of the transaction for the plant in Hardin was not disclosed. Little is known about Big Horn Datapower Holdings, which isn't registered as a corporation in Montana. As recently as last year, the power plant was at risk of shutting down for lack of customers. Montana's Public Service Commission had suggested Hardin Generating Station might be of use to NorthWestern Energy, the state's largest monopoly utility.

But NorthWestern passed on the opportunity. A downturn in the demand for coal energy left the plant owing millions in back taxes and later announcing potential closure by mid-2018. DEAR ANNIE or whoever the appropriate person is. As for the discomfort you felt in the seats, you could relay your experience to. the theater's management.

manager might have suggestions for how to make it up to you. Dear Annie: My co-worker recently mentioned to me that his wife attended her friend's wedding alone because the invitation didn't allow a guest. The same was apparently true for other invitees. Regardless of whether my co-worker had any interest in attending, I thought it tacky to exclude guests. If the newlyweds' goal was to save money, wouldn't proper etiquette call for inviting fewer people so that everyone invited could bring a guest? Furthermore, isn't the whole point of a wedding to share the experience with friends and family and, by extension, their loved ones? Maybe wedding etiquette has changed since I got married 12 years ago.

Just Wondering in Wisconsin Dear Wondering: Wedding etiquette has not changed over the past 12 years. Proper wedding etiquette states that spouses, fiancees, fiances and live-in partners should be invited as guests even if the bride and groom have never met them. I'm hoping that this was an unintentional oversight on the part of his wife's friend. If not, then it was more than tacky; it was downright rude.
