The WEATHER. When, at Christmas, we
had our first real snow storm the roads were
hard and smooth and although but little snow
fell it mada excellent sleighing and automo-
bling. 1t was cold enough to keep what snow
we had until last week and then it had begun
to wear away in spots. Then came another
snow storm which threatened to turn to rain,
but instead brought more snow with lower
temperature. Monday northwesterly gale
prevailed all along the coast, and Tuesday
morning the temperature at different points in
this CITY was reported from 8 to 20 below zero
and did not get up to that mark during the
day. The wind decreased little during the
day, but ragged again at night with falling
temperature. Wednesday dawned 'brite and
fare" with temperature reported all the
way from 10 to 20 below, although at one
house on Court street it was 4below at a. m.
and at the same hour the day before it was 10
below Frozen water pipes were in evidence
everywhere, and the high wind made the usual
heating apparatus unequal to keeping up a
comfortable temperature in many homes.
