CAUGHT SEVERE COLD
WARM WEATHER OF PAST 10
DAYS DISPLACED1STORM
OF RAIN AND SNOW.

People are wondering today what
has become of Phil Sheridan's robin,
AL Fuller's straw hat and Martin
Nerdahl's vendors wagon as signs or
spring. The industrious suburbanite
turned from the contemplation of the
garden tools stacked rusting at the
rear of the garage, and again got out
the heavy coat and crawled into II
with a contented sigh as OF great IA
miliarity. For, with rain coming
from the northeast and thermometer
sinking rapidly, winter, instead OF
lingering in the lap of the wan spring
rudely crowded her clear off the seat
when the storm of snow swept down
from the north this morning.
The past 10 days have been days
of great cheer. furnishing a grateful
recess in the winter which had held
down so tightly in temperature from
time immemorial. With a light rain
last night the weather changed, and
the Increased cold turned it to snow.
With a high wind this morning and
continuing during the day, it was a
very stormy day-which gave rise to
the inquiries at the top OF this article
Dispatcher John H. Moore said this
afternoon that the snow storm struck
the northern part of the state as
early as last evening, and that 1t was
much more severe than 1t has been
here. The wind vas higher, and
there was a greater quantity of snow
Trains are delayed, but at this time
none of them have been unable to
make their way. The dispatcher's Of
flee is a busy place, and trainmasteri
are fitting and ordering out snow
plows to cope with possible drifts.

MUCH REPAIRING

worked at WATERFOWL before coming
to Madison.
In talking with a Daily Leader re-
porter this morning, Mr.. Quanstrom
said in reply to inquiry that tlcre
IA :luch wiring in the city which
must be removed and repaired.
Much of the current for both light
and lower is being conducted over
wire too small. In many Instances
No. 10 wire is used when No. 3 is
needed, and in some instances No. 6
should be used. Many of the poles
are decayed and unsafe. carrying
wires with 1890 volts which may be
borne to the ground in n storm OF
wind or snow at any time. The re-
cult of the light weight wire is that
under load Ii becomes overheated,
and the insulation d~eteriorates rap
idly, and much of the wire is worth
less now.
Mr.. Quanstrom did not lay the
,!lane on any person. He stated that
much of the srn2ll wire was a result
OF carly wiring with the small wire.

city. and con seQuent great addition

worse north of Madison, and that,
too, in a comparatively short dis

make their way as far as Ramona,

showing continues, and it may be
that there will be plenty of it here
before the thing is done.
