A HEAVY SNOW STORM.
Roads BlOckaded- Rural Delivery Wag-
Ons Were Gotten Through.

Snow began falling at $50 a. m, on the
10th instant, and continued almost uninier-
ruptedly until IL late hour Saturday night,
with sufficient wind to cause heavy drifts i'll
many places, owing 20 the dryness of the
snow. Postmaster Schaeffer was commune
Gated with by Mr.. Machen, Superintendent
of the Rural Free Delivery Service, from
Washington, Saturday night, and requested
all the routes to be opened, and to remind
every one of the contractors who furnish the
wagons that under their contract with the
government they must supply all the horses
needed to cover their routes on schedule
time. Mr. Schaeffer was directed to warn
them that, if necessary, they must double
their teams or furnish relays Of horses where
ever needed. He was also authorized to send
men to clear up the roads if the snow had
drifted anywhere to make the mail routes i'm
passable.
Capt. G. e. Hathaway, who has charge of
the service in this county, gave Mr.. Schaeffer
all the assistance possible. Che several sta
tons we're conferred with by telephone, as
well as the carriers, and force of men were
put to work to open all the roads, al least two
hours in advance OF the wagons. On Mon
day all sthe wagons started with four horses,
with arrangements for relays, ii necessary.
Notwithstanding the heavy drifts the wagons
were not delayed over from two to four hours.
The carriers also made good time.
Considering the depth of snow, about fif-
teen inches, and the heavy drifts, it is re-
markable that they were able to get through
at all. Last year, during the great blizzard,
several days interviewed before some of the
star route carriers were able to make their
trips.
All IN all it was a great piece of work and
we feel assured that the energy shown by
those in charge here was greatly appreciated
by citizens along the several routes.
