Pa Wheeling's hopes OF a white
Christmas went glimmering last even,

The beautiful blanket Of white, which
had covered the city for almost
week, was quickly torn off by the rain.
and the Christmas-like air which had
prevailed for several days changed to
one of gloom.
Throughout the afternoon the streets
and stores were thronged with Christ
mas shoppers, but as the rain set IN
hundreds were driven from the streets
and kept from visiting the stores last
night. It'll.
But then, we may get a white
Christmas yet, for the official weather
