Snow in the morning, thunder at noon

At precisely 1851 y. IN. the inhabitants
OF the city were startled by al accentu-
ated clap of thunder and q pale streak
OF lightning crawled leebly across the sky
AS III disgusted at the reluctance
of spring to proceed to business. Sew
eral times TODAY there were perfunctory
al temps to rain, but without success
until about 2:45 p. M, when the heavily
laden clouds could retain their "a ief no
longer and poured down upon the earth in
perfect cascades. The Offices and stores
throughout the city were dllel with an
impenetrable gloom aud every light in
the city was turned Oh to its full capac-
ity.h Very llttle wind accom-
panied the storm, but the utter
Dackness filled many a timid
mi0d wit n forebodings of an approaching
cyclone. Happily IL did not develop aud
the storm passed off as one of the iuci-
