the eatly moinlng it tallied, at noon It
snowed, In tho afternoon it snowed, In
tho evening it snowed, last night it
snowed and it would not be sin pris

When the snow made Its tippc.ii mice,

and in 11 slioi t time the Hakes looked
like snow balls-, then paper sacks and
finally pillow shams. Every thing was
snow, tho trees, the telegraph poles,

"Doilo" Rurdick, "looked not unlike

tho wildest blow of tho winter winds
and no one who could avoid their keen

Connois, it stalled them piopeily he

uiday evening -a small blaze was
noticed in ono ot the 100ms, but was
speedily extinguished by the use of a
couple of buckets of water. The blaze
was caused by a defect In the ten a

danger was past, letiieil and weie
awakened at 2 o'dock in the moinlng
by smoke. The second blaze was also
caused by the defective chimney. An

plug was on Sand street, near Povv

have sufficient hose to make a coupling
and consequently tho (he fiend had full

thoe who made the last mission and

mony is iollowed by holding under the
tin oat ot each person two lighted

power ot St. RIaslus to help them.
Stoim Blocks Tiains.
Tho stoim played havoe with the
tiain 1 uniting 1101 th of the city. The
gale which the wind blew diifted the
snow In heaps that it made it impas
sable in cuts. 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.
