The Willow City Eagle takes
several good sized raps at the
putrid railroad service on this
line and suggests a return to
the good old stage coach days,
when a little thing like a snow
drift did not materially inter
fere with the traffic.
This branch has had practi-
cally no freight service during
the last two weeks. A few
carloads of coal have been
brought up the line and distri-
buted along the different sta
tons, but all way freight ap-
pears to be tied up along the
main line. While there is no
Immediate danger of a coal
famine, the situation will be
serious if regular traffic is not
resumed, as the supply is quite
low in most of the towns along
the line.

III. S. Terry left his team
standing on the street last
Friday afternoon without any
blankets on and when the biz
zard came up they froze out
and ran away. They came
down main street and ran in
back of the livery barn where
they got stuck in a snowdrift.
The snow was so binding that
Mr. Terry wac unable to find
them. so consequently they e
manned out all night in the
storm. We think it would be
a good policy for the farmers to
slip their horses in the barn
when they come to town as a
horse won't stand out very
long this cold weather till they
ara chilled clear thru.-Max-
