SNow-BALiLNG IN SAN FRANCISCO. "A
great snow storm in this city was, O
course, the cause of innumerable incidents
Ola iudlcrous nature. 1t Is estimated
That 100 900 persons threw snow during
the day. In some of the livelier quarters
OF the town house holders packed snow
inside, and from the windows resisted the
assaults OF beseigers in the streets. The
snow was hailed with delight by every
body, especially by the sinal boys, and
with terror by the Chinese. Johns
appearance anywhere invited a flsilade o
snowballs. He generally "tired' back
but with ridiculous results, not having the
skill of the Am ercan in moulding the
merry missile, or in projecting it. But
John WIS not alone in being the target fol
snowballers. Everybody was considered
legltimrte game, and almost every body
engaged in the sport. Absolute strangers
meeting would "Gre' at each other and
have it out for two or three minutes with

The scenes were lively and ludicrous. The
grayheaded pioneer. who had not seen a
snow storm for years. actually cried with
delight. lie 'shied" snowballs at other
pioneers. The general street scenes
reminded old timers of the demonstration
of The populace on the arrival in this city
of the first overland stage on tho southern
route, when people went mad, and threw
their hats first in the air and next under
the wheels OF the stage coach. Nobody
escaped. Umbrellas proved Intellectual
barricadcs against the flight of missiles
from several quarters at once. The sport
on the street was frequently ill hammered
but not generally i'll natured. The police
did not escape. 1t is reported that one
policeman south of Market street had to
move on three blocks to escape Sun
