The Storm,

The storm was the heaviest known for
sticky snow Clung to everything that il
struck, and bore poles and wires to the
ground. Tho local telephone service was
not seriously crippled but there WIS prac-
tiCally no til phol c connection with 9TH
or places. The telegraph wires also suf-
fcrcd considerably.
The no school signal was sounded in
the morning. Swing the scholars from
sitting for hours with wet feet, for the
snow was water soaked as we'll as deep.
Tho necessity of again clearing snow
froT sidewalks this spring came as a sur
prise to the street department. The task
WAS moro than ordinarily difficult because
of the character of the snow. and thr
work was not completed until late in the
day.
Numerous events scheduled for the dav
and the evening We're postponed on ac>
count of the extremely disagreeahIe trav.
cling conditions. F'cw people of ther own
free will vcntured forth. and Water

number of the storekcepcrs allowed some
0f their clerks to go home while they
themselves killed time in almost deserted
business places.

About Six Inches of Snow-Wire Com

| About six inches of snow fell in Wa
terEille, during a storm which contin-
ued without interruption from 1870
clock Monday evening until O'Clock.
the following morning. During the
forenoon it showed practically con-
tlnuouSly until noon time. but the fem

first fallen began to flow away as sur

The n. +. Tel. & Tel. wires in the
early morning hours were closed en-
tlrely. for long distance service even
Fairfield and Oakland being cut off.
Inc wires between Wateryille and Au-
SuStd were not seriously damaged but
communication could not be restored
during the day. 1t is said that but few
poles are down in this direction and
that communication will, no doubt, be
established before . o'clock this morn
ing.
The Postal Tel. Cable lines reported
considerable of damage although none
That cannot be repaired within a short
time. The lines of the Western Union
Telegraph Company were reported to
DC in working order last evening
The damage locally was very little
as much more sno is said to have
fallen i'll the territor. around Water
vile than was the case within the city
limits. A few live wires were caused
during the early part of the day and
the fire alarm system was crossed by
wires of another company with the re-
suit that the former was burned out
at its connection with the Central
Hose house, setting fire to u portion
of the wood work in the upper story.
Tho blaze was quickly cXtinguished. At
TINS point, by Il prompt action of the
mayor all electric light wires were cut
off to avert a similar Occurrancc in
other parts of the city during the
hours while the alarm waS useless.
The currents were restored at about 3
o'clock.
