quite heavy, also along the foothills
and in the mountains, but at the Sum-
nit there was fall of two inches of
snow.
Last evening there was a decided
drop In the temperature from here
northward, and the outlook was for
clear and cold weather ro-day
1t was showing again at the Summit
yesterday, with rain at the stations
lower down, but the snow soon turned
into rain.
The Oregon express was sixteen
hours late on account OF washout
near Ashland, but no other trains were
initerfered with.
The heaviest rainfall reported for
the twenty-four hours up to o'clock
yesterday morning was 30 inches, at
Towles, Placer County, and the light
est, one-fifth of an inch. at German
town, Colusa County.

WHAT WAS IT?
An Appariti0n Wandering Through
the Atmosphere.

Several persons last evening, between
and Z o'clock, saw big ball of fire.
like an electric light, pass over the city
going in a southwesterly direction. 1t
moved slowly and was in sight for more
than a half-hour, finally disappearing
in the mist and darkness
More than one person was heard to de-
clare that he distinguished human
voices engaged in song and mirth com
ing from above, but could discover no
outline of baaloon-nothing but large
bald of light
One man in the suburbs declares he
heard a voice warning 'Fthe man at the
helm" to go higher or they would coll
lide with the church steeples, etc.
It is possible someone sent up an IL
Illuminated balloon, or that a stray me-
teor was hunting for the rest of the
gang. but there really were per-
sons who insisted that it was a new
tangled airship lighted by electricity
and travelling direct for San Francisco
frOm-Somewhere.
