SNOW TEN INCHES DEEP.
One of the Earliest md Most Se- we're AutumnnI Storms In the
 Northwest for Years.

Winnipeg, Man, Sept. 15.-One of the earliest autumnal storms experienced in the northwest for years swept over the country on Saturday anu Sunday.
 The only fatality reported comes from Gretna, where an old man fell from buggy and perished in the storm. At Hartney, 12 horses died in the Canadian Pacific yards, and in the vicinity other live stock are reported to have perished.
 telephone message received from Minnedosa reported that the storm was one of the worst experienced there in five years It started to blow about ten o'clock in the morning, and heavy rain soon followed. At noon this de- veloped into a snow storm, and by dark the snow was ten inches deep on the level prairie.
 Grain which w4s still standing, is al- most totally ruined.
