HARD SHEDDING
 FOR MAIL BOYS

Christmas, following normal win ter day, came in on one of the worst storms known in this region for long time. Early in the morning the dis turbance had reached the proportions of blizzard, and the wind and snow continued with but slight changes for the better until nightfall on Tuesday. The drfted snow set everybody to shoveling, and it now lies in great heaps along the streets and against all the buildings. The temperature du,- ing the storm period was but little be- low freezing. which makes the cold immediately following more noticeable.
 The storm is reported to have ex- tended to every part of Alaska with which communication can be had.
 Notwithstanding the severity of the weather, Mike Calvin left on time with the mail stage for Hot Springs last Saturday. He was met at Sullivan by the down-bound stage. Arthur Campbell went out to meet him on the return trip and the mail was brought in on time Tuesday evening.
 Allen Jordan, with seven dogs and a helper, left Sunday with the mail for Rampant. His run is exposed to all the winds that blow, and he must have played an interesting engagement.
