The WEATHER.-Since our last
issue the weather has been quite
cold and rough, with little snow.
Very little rafting has been done
within the last eight days, and the
prospect for running is not very en-
couraging at present. Most of the
snow has disappeared, and hence it
will require copious rains to raise
the streams sufficiently high for
rafting.
