"Tho Wind, She Blow a Hurricane,
Bims-By She Blow Soma More"
COL. RAMSEY COMING BACK
That is the Report In the Garden
City-OfficiaIs Neither Affirm
Nor Deny TX Robert
Camps Funeral.

MIssoULA, Feb. 6.-About o'clock this
morning a genuine blizzard unaccompa-
MED by snow struck Missoula, and until
about noon n more disagreeablc place
than the Missoula valley could not be
found. The wind of icy GOODNESS blew at
a hurricane gale and kept everything up
in the air il could catch hold OF long
enough TO lift from it's moorings. A party
of young people who had danced the
night at Grass Valley, came home against
it and many fingers, ears and noses are
reported to have been npped. 1t was
impossible for driver TO retain his hold
of the reins for any length of time and
many changes had to be made, one
young man driving until he could hold out
no longer, when another would take his
place. The horses could make but little
Roadway against tho wind and it took as
long again as usual TO come from Cyrs to
the city. Notwithstanding the fact that
tho girls were huddled down in the straw
and kept covered with robes, some of
them suffered severely and several were
sick af ter they arrived in Missoula about
3 o'clock. One sleigh load went to the
Kennedy hotel where hot fires were built
and hot coffee made which soon thawed
every ono out, but il will be some time
before the most robust will feel like tack
ling another Montana blizzard.
A rumor around the city to-day is to the
effect that ex-Sherff Ramsay is soon to be
appointed superintendent of the Rocky
Mountain division of the Northern Pa
cific, with headquarters at Mssoula, and
people talk about nothing else. The re-
port is denied by some, while others claim
it is true. Colonel Ramsay previously oc-
cupied the position to which IL is claimed
he will be appointed and must have given
satisfaction, or he would not be spoken of
for the place. He was popular with his
men and popular with the people gener-
ally. which was proved by his election as
sheriff of Missoula county shortly after
ne had left the road and his management
of the sheriff's Office added TO his list of
friends. Those in position to confirm
or deny tho report will do neither.
j. w. Hamilton, superintendent of tho
Mammoth mine, who is in the city, says
he has n force of A. men working in the
mine and the mill. 10-stamp mill having
lately been added. The shafts are 100
and $50 feet in depth respectively, with n
good ore body. The output is about 50
tons n day of good grade, free-milling ore.
Mr. Penglaze, one of the owners of the
mine, left for Deer Lodge this morning
with last Sundays cleanup, and returns
arc soon expected. Mr.. Hamilton says
tho Mammoth will be steady producer.
Representative Latmer is in tho city
and will remain for several days. He does
not say SO, but 1t is believed that he
wanted TO escape the agents of the differ
ent book companies whoHjust now are
making life n burden for some legislators
and pleasure for others.
The remains of Robert Camp will reach
here tomorrow from Hamilton in charge
of Undertaken Flynn and will DO for
warded to Virginia for interment.
