Snow Storm

A violent wind storm accom- panied by rain and snow ragged all day Sunday last from far over in New Mexico as far west as Needles, Cal. At WinslOw the wind blew all day Saturday reaching it's highest velocity along towards midnight. Early Sunday morning rain began fall ing, but was of short duration. West ofhere snow became general from Flagstaff as far west as the local offices get reports. It was reported that snow fell as far west as Peach Springs Ariz., and that the wind and rain storm had invaded the sacred precincts of Needles. At Flagstaff the re- port said there was two feet of snow and at & o'clock Sunday 1t was still showing. The reports Monday indicated that snow had fallen all day Sunday between Flagstaff and Seligman, various depths being reported. Between Flagstaff and Williams the snow was a foot deep on the level, while the extreme high wInd was causing bad drifts. At Williams thirteen inches of snow had fall en previous to o'clock Monday morning, after which time the fall was light. From Ash Fork to Seligman the snow fall was light, but the extreme high winds prevailed all the way from Nee dies well over into New Mexico. From WinSlOw east there was very little snow reported along the line of the railroad, but heavy rains were general between here and Albuquerque. The Santa Fe trains suffered no delay on ac- count of the storm, everything running on time and with but little inconvenience ItiseXpected that the loss among cattle and sheep will be rather heavy on ac- count of the storm but just what may be looked for in this line will not be known for some time.

The news of the rich strikes in
Alaska brings joy to the hearts of
the merchants of the northwest, and
also to laborers who have been out
of work nearly all winter. The enor-
nous shipment of the precious yellow
metal to Seattle on the first boats will
be supplemented by the shipment
into Alaska from Seattle of thousands
of workingmen who will find profit

other development projects.

approaching will be a record breaker

THE MODEL AUTOMOBILE.
IDEAL Car Is Soon to be Within the
Reach OF All.

The soundless. smooth-runnlng.
Perfectly flexible car-what like to
call the Gentleman's car, because a
gentleman can drive 1t without vio-
lence to good-breeding or to his finer
aesthetic appreciation-is not far
distant today. says Herbert L. Towles
in the May Scribner.
Most OF Its elements are already
present, some on this car, some on
that; and in time they or their equiv
alents will be united in all the best
machines. Because of its almost per-
feet smoothness and flexibility--its
appeal to the aesthetic sense In short
Il look to see the "six' accepted as
highwater mark of excellence for cars
of over, say, "a horse power, until
the time, now indefinitely remote,
when the gas or steam turbine IS
made a success for vehicle propul-
sion.
In lower powers the vibration of
-four" is not so marked as to thrust
itself or the passengers notice. and
the flexibility. while not perfect. is
sufficient for the moderate speeds in
tended.
Another point worth naming. in
connection with flexibility. is weight.
A heavy car with given engine ac-
CELEBRATES correspondingly slower than
a light car, and the effect on the
driver is nearly as demoralizing as
that ct an engine which will not run
slow. The present tendency is for
luxurious body equipment to run
away with ease and delicacy of con-
troll: and this has a further i'll effect
in multiplying tire troubles. which are
a notable destroyer of the motorists
peace of mind.
Light weight means higher cost for
and workmanship, but Il |
is worth all 1t costs. I do not believe |
a 'cheap" machine will ever be quite |
as a Gentleman's car,
though when 1t is now 1t may run as
smoothly as the best; but on the
other hand, with due progress in man
skill, 1t will not be neces-
sary to pay fancy figure TO secure
perfect running qualities. We shall
not need to revise our definition of
the word gentleman to fit the owner
