The heaviest snow storm of the season

tunately it was not very cold, so that the

that account
Early risers Saturday morning looked for
ward to a damp, disagreeable day, as it
promised to be cloudy and to drizzle at in
tervals. Gradually, however, it grew colder,
the rain changed to seet and then at 8
o'clock snow commenced to drift down upon
the damp walks, which were soon covered,
A strong wind was blowing, but the snow
was too heavy to drift, besides 1t was still
too warm for the vanguard of the storm

The storm was so persistent and steady
that few people came down town who were
not compelled to do their Saturday shopping.
Those on the streets met the snow good
naturedly. as it was not very disagreeable,
and remarked concerning the varableness
of March weather. Toward night the streets
became more deserted than during the after
noon, although even almost impossible
streets did not keep large crowd from find

Darkness was falling when the snow be-
gan to drift and the wind to blow clouds
of white across the paths and in the faces
of people who were on the streets. No spot
appeared to be sacred from intrusion by the
clements. Pedestrians sought the middle of
the street, where the snow plow had swept
a path so they could move along more
quickly.

When asked by Colonel Davis as to COM

case was that the beef was spoiled, but on
investigation it was found that the meat had
been drawn quite early in the morning and
allowed to remain in the wagons until 10 or
IL o'clock in the forenoon. The only thing
wrong noticed about this beef was that 1t
was discolored owing to the exposure to the

The staid, dignifed citizen who is in the
habit of walking slowly and unobtrusively
to his home thought it no reflection upon
his lifelong habit to breast the storm with
the vigor of an eager boy anxious to reach
his destination. Men actually trotted or
were blown down the streets, while women
who we're detained down town were swept
along the street. their umbrellas acting as
huge sails to assist them on their way. Be
tween the hours of commencement and I
o'clock in the evening 80 inches of snow fell
By 9 O'Clock at night, however, it looked as
if the fall had grown much heavier, as the
walks were blocked in places by drifts three
and one half feet in depth.
The wind increased from velocity OF
sixteen miles in the morning to an eN-
treme of thirty-five miles, although Its drlV-
ing power appeared much greater because
of the flakes which struck ones face with
force that was binding, because the eyes
were closed involuntarily to protect them
from the sting of the mischieVous llttle
particles.
The street cars were not impeded during
the day but toward nghtfall the snow
plows were sent out TO clean the tracks
and to keep them open if possible. Within
a couple of hours after dark the cars on
the north and south lines found that they
would have to stop or else remain showed
up for the night. At o'clock traffic be-
tween Omaha and South Omaha was aban-
doned. The other lines endeavored to re-
main in operation an hour longer, when
they, too, ceased the struggle. The Far
nam and Harney street lines were more
fortunate. The snow plow was kept in
operation en- those streets in order that
belated citizens might be borne home Cars
ran in sections it was impossible to
keep to their time. AS the night grew
older the rails became more slippery on
account of the cold, which gradually became
more biting until at o'clock the weather
