the European countries involved in
the war is sweeping a great religious
wave. Such waas the report brought
here by Rev. lasif Zalmonaff. who
was for a time a chaplain with the
Russian army and has seen army life

Thousands OF men who never

head and bend the knee as they face
that great slaughter" he said. 1T
has all become one great religion.
The narrow path followed for cen

Be Careful of Fire

On account of the deep snow the
fire department could not in case of
a fire alarm get their big auto truck
to the place it would be needed. Fore
mar Art Meyers has therefore had
the hand hose cart moved to the front
OF the engine house and firemen are
notified to go to the house and pull
on the ropes in an emergency. The
city marshal will, as soon as practic-
able have a snow pillow run over the
streets and a passage dug to the
plugs and everything else necessary
TO keep up the efficiency of the de-
partment will be done. In the mean
time, Mr. Meyers requests house
holders and others who are keeping
fires to be extra careful and avoid If
possible a disaster.

Over ; Feet of
Snow On the Level

Not satisfied with blanketing the
earth hereabouts with from eighteen
TO t~wenty-four inches of snow in the
past ten days, the powers that con-
troll got busy shortly after II o'clock
last night and as a result of their
labors, which were assiduous in the
extreme. the streets OF Carson at
noon today were covered with the
beautiful to the depth of nearly
three feet, and there seemed no ind'-
cation of abatement OF the preceipi-
tation. Probably the best example OF
the amount OF snow that fell was 20
be found in Capitol park, where the
snow lies to a depth OF about forty
inches on the level.
Early in the morning the Virginia
and Truckee railroad officers an
nounced they would make no attempt
today to get out a train from this
city, nor would any be started either
from Reno or Virginia City. AS a
result OF this there has been no travel
and no papers or mail arrived.
Outside news, of course. is meager
because of the conditions, but the tel
egraph wires are working all right so
far. so the Appeal, exclusively, is ell
abled through its press service, TO
keep the people OF Carson posted on
world events.
AS far as known, the storm has not
effected the power plants, so until
That contingency arrives, Carson is
in full possession of light and juice
AT II o'clock word had been re-
ceived that two feet of snow had fall
len at Reno. twenty-eight inches at
Steamboat, fifteen at Dayton, fifteen
at Minden and two feet of new snow
at Virginia, making six feet in all at
the latter place.
No. 8 train on the Southern Pacific
from San Francisco had got as far as
Verdi at 10 this morning, but there
il was said TO be hopelessly stalled.
On the railroads leading in and out
OF Carson it was stated that no eff
fort would be made to clear the
tracks or send out any trains until it
was apparent that the storm had be-
gun to subside, and as that point has
not been reached at the hour the APP
peal goes to press, it begins 20 look
as though this city was in for it for
Il lew days at least.

Liable to Die
From Starvation

During the open season for deer
last year the hunters of Carson walk
ed many miles in the hills about
Kings and Ash canyons trying to get
a shot at a big deer which they knew
to be roaming about the high noun
tains east OF town, out none OF them
were able to get a sight of him. This
morning the big fellow, driven out
by the snow, is sail to have been seea
by several people neal Walsh's ranch,
just at the west edge of town. He is
described as a five-pointer ard a big
one for his age.
Hunters also say that the quail
from the mountains back OF town
have all been driven down to the
valleys by the big snow and that as
they can not get to the ground to find
anything to eat the great majority
OF them are going to perish from
starvation.

MARTHA WAsHINGTON's WILL

Its Removal From Fairfax Courthouse
and Its Recovery by Virginia.
The will Of Martha Washington. re
Gently returned to the state of Virginia
by J. Pierpont Morgan, was taken
from the Fairfax courthouse in 1862,
when that part Of Virginia was occu-
pied by Federal troops. A lieutenant
colonel of the Union army whose head
quarters were in the courthouse found
his men shoveling pile of papers into
the stove to build a fire. He stopped
them and on examination discovered
the will. It was among his papers
when he died in 1892, and thirteen
years later his daughter sold it to the
late J. Pierpont Morgan. The lieuten-
ant colonel was David Thomson of the
Eighty-second Ohio Volunteer infantry.
The state of Virginia learned about
the time the will was sold to Mr.. Nor
gan that it had not been destroyed, and
efforts were made to recover it. Sew
eral years ago the state authorities
found that the will was in the posses
sion of Mr.. Morgan and wrote to him
demanding it's return. He refused, say
ing it was contraband of Wal and as
such the man whose estate had sold it
to him had a right to keep it and the
estate the right to dispose Of it as it
saw fit.
After the elder Morgan's death the
Daughters of the American Revolution
began to agitate for the return of the
historic document to Virginia, and the
state itself threatened prosecution Of
the holder on the ground that it was
stolen property. Mr.. Morgan replied
that his only desire was to place the
will where it would be kept more care
fully than was possible in Fairfax
courthouse. Virginia asked the SUI
preme court of the United States for
leave to file a suit in behalf of the
state against J. Pierpont Morgan for
the recovery of the will.
The state of Virginia figured in sim
liar suit over the recovery of certain
documents, including letter of La
fayette and an address by George
Washington to the Virginia house of
burgesses. when an agreement was
reached in 1912 between the heirs of
Benson John Losing, who held the
papers, and the state. whereby the mat
ter was arbitrated.

And brief the mdday's sunny
hours;
The wind swept forest seems to sigh
For the sweet time Of leaves and

Yet has no month prouder day,
Not even when the summer broods
Ger meadows in their fresh array
Or autumn tints the glowing woods
For this chill season now again
Brings, IN its annual round. the nom
When, greatest Of the sons Of men,
Our glorious Washington was born

Calmly the mighty Hudson aowsl
By snow clad fell and frozen field
Broadening the lordly nver goes
The widest storm that sweeps through
space
And rends the oak with sudden force
Can raise no ripple on his face
Or aacken his majestic course.
Thus mid the wreck Of thrones shall live
Unmarried. undimmed. our hero's
fame.
And years succeeding years shall give
Increase of honors to his name.
