SNOW IS COMING
WITH COLDER
WEATHER
Generally BIizzardy Conditions
Predicted for Late Tuesday.
Wind Accompanies Freeze.

Another cold wave is rolling down
on Dixie, and the signs point to snow
and wind and general blizzardy con-
dtions by nightfall Tuesday, with a
likelihood that previous records for
cold this winter will be broken.
At o'clock Tuesday morning the
official temperature in Atlanta was IS
degrees. BY 9 o'clock the mercury
mad shrunk to 26, and was falling
slowly, but with apparent steadlness.
The wind, which averaged about "a
miles an hour, added to the penetra-
ton of the cold, which was all the
more marked, following as it did the
surnmerlike temperature of Monday
afternoon and evening,
Neglected water pipes and empty
coal bins are nearly certain to bring
sorrow and evaporation Tuesday
night, but 1t is not predicted that the
cold snap will be of long duration.
on the whole, It generally is regarded
as rather a fortunate change, in that
the fruit and vegetation will be held
in check to a degree that will render
it less liable to complete ruin by a
later cold snap.

marched to the station and the freight
