by noon today, over 100 warrants had

anticipating a busy day on that date.
Today was the second time the District

to whom the cleaning of the walks
meant an expense of several dollars
with no possible benefits TO be derived.
Early Wednesday afternoon, however,
it began to hail All night the storm
lasted, and by yesterday morning the
streets were covered with over four
inches of frozen sleet. The sleet re-
moved the objection of the court house
officials to issuing warrants, and the
policemen were again instructed to re-

snow law
