Blizzard Returns.

Lexington was again visited ly
a blizzard which began Saturday al.
ternoon, continued all day SUNDAY.
A light sleet began to fall about s
o clock saturday afternoon and
walking soon became a dangerous
proposition. While the wind was
not nearly so strong as il was the
last time, the damage which has re-
suited since Saturday is much great
er, A thick coating Of heavy ice
settled upon the wires, erossbars and
poles Of the Lafayette Tele-
phone company. This made the
poles exceedingly top-heayy and as
the wind became higher, the poles
could be seen to sway warningly.
About three o'clock Sunday morning
every pole from the most important
junction in the rear of the offices
near 1lth street, extending several
blocks to 10th street in rear of Ran
kin's store, broke, carrying the hun
dreds OF wires and big cables into
the back Yards of the residents along
this route. In all, fourteen poles,
supporting the largest number and
most important wires in town, were
blown down. Almost all the poles
were broken in the same place. A
force of nine men we're at work all
day Sunday cutting the smaller
wires. The work of repair be-
gan immediately. The loss to tle
con 2any is estimated to be about
$4,000.

To get an elephant aboard ship is a

Once on the raft, his legs are tied
to pegs, and the slow sail to the ship
is u%neventful. But now a great band

some twenty or thirty feet to the deck.
