The Utah & Eastern succeeded in get
ting its engine out of the snow bank, this
side of the summit, this week. The ter
minus of the road is only four miles from
Park City now and if it were possible to
nave a few days of fine weather the road
could soon be finished into town.
a coal famine struck the Park this week
and only those could secure coal who had
their o5ders in FIR a week before. Mr..
KImbal says il is due TO the miners being
OF work enjoying the holidays and that as
soon as they return there will be no trouble
in supplying the Genand. Over one hun-
dred :-ud fifty tons u day are used in the
Park. all of which comes from the Home
Coal company's mines in Coalville. The
Ontario company own a controlling inter
est in that property.
The storm Of Friday afternoon and even
ing was one of the most terrific ever known
in the Park. The wind blew furiously,
laden with snow dust which soon filled the
paths, trails and roads. The storm of the
past month must have spent itself in this
one mighty effort, for Friday was calm and
clear and for a while the sun came out,
gladdening the spirits of the entire commu-
nifty.
From word received from Alta, by tele-
phone on Thursday, we learned that about
sixty men were in and about the camp

pected daily. Those living in town have
moved their effects to the Bay City tun-
Aael, The usual winter resort, and are max
Eng it their headquarters, not wishing to
run the risks that are attached TO staying
in the town.
A number of families who nave been liv-
ing In the vicinity of the ''snow- Sliding
places in Ontario canon, have moved inte
town during the last week. The average
being who knows anything about a snow
slide respects sits majesty" and has no
anxiety to monkey with it.
La grippe has not vet reached the Park,
n our good people AVE been hoping that
the altitude, which has such an influence
over many people, might in some way keep
it from 'tightening'' on Us. The climatic
conditions of the Park are not favorable to
the epidemic, and if it reaches us at all. as
Drs. Gregor and Wilson predict, it will be
in a mild form. The general health of the
community at present is splendid, and if
we must have la grippe, the Park would
prefer to ride the goat and be initiated at
once.
