that
THE SNOW IS RAGING GENERALLY
throughout the country. This particular storm
came from the southwest, and has LEFT Virginia
and this country as far south as Atlanta covered
with snow. In Virginia they have the greatest
! amount of snow known for years. At Lynchburg
there is over eight inches, while at Atlanta there
Is four or five inches OF snow In Richmond, Pitts

ANOTHER COLD WAVE
is forming about Chicago, with the probability OF
Its moving due east ana not coming as far south
as Washington. The temperature at various
places this morning was as follows: Boston, 10

THE sLEIGHING.
The owners OF sleighs were glad to see the
snow. and they at once felt justified in owning a
Sleigh AS rule people who own sleighs are
for about 1863 days OF the year placed on the de-
fenstve to justify their reckless and extravagant
conduct in owning sleigh at ALL But when the
snow finally does come, they have the best of the
argument So this morning the sleghs were
brought down from their hiding places The
livery stable keepers busted off their stock and at
an early hour the merry sound of the sleigh bell
was heard on the avenue. The cutters were
drawn swiftly along. People experienced In
snow said that 1t too light
and that 1t needed the sun to pack IT down before
the sle1ghing would be at its best. But, wise
experience, people that own sleighs, or can hire
them, wait tor nothing when snow is In the que
tlon. 1t is liable 10 melt and disappear, an 1 IL
stays for no one. In spite OF the snow beginning
anew, the merry sleigleTs continued their amuse-
ment, probably rejoicing ia the thou ght OF other
sleigh rides.
