Every thing was snow, tho trees, the telegraph poles, c--eiything. By evening tho soldier in the paik looked like a big snow man and tho loads, In tho language of "Doilo" Rurdick, "looked not unlike an unbeaten tiall in the Klondike."

Though theie was era baiiassnient in the moving of trains on both the noithein brancji of the D. is II. and the O. W., the most trouble was on the latter load. A tiain of CO coal cms which left here In the eaily atteinoon got stalled in a cut this side ol Oison. The tlnee engines which pulled the tiain over tho mountain could not budge the heavy load. A tiain was dispatched to assist the poweilcss tiio. but it was about tluee hours beloie tho train was moved. Tho consequence ol the tie-up was that tho passenger tun lrom the 1101th was hold at Olson until the coal tiain was i pleased. At a late hour tho tiain had not ai lived in this city.
