Cars Freeze 70 Rails.

Pottsvine, Pa, Jan 29.-Snow and
sleet fell here all day, greatly aggra-
waiting the difficulties under which
coal is being transported.
Notwithstanding shortage of empty
cars, all collieries of this region work
cd but hundreds Of min, employees
were put to work helping to shovel
snow of the railroads instead Of pro-
ducing coal.
An unusual feature of the sleet
storm was that most trains, while
standing at stations, found the wheels
so frozen to the rails that locomotives
were powerless. Some passenger trains
pulling out required an extra To-
connective just to get started, after
which one engine could easily pull
the train

Gold in Montana,

The first discovery of gold in Mon
tana Is accredited to a halfbreed In
dian, who in 1852 found 'co!ors" in
gravel near the mouth of Col creek,
a small stream that rises in the north
east corner of the Philipsburg quad
rangle, and the first workable places
discovered in Montana were found on
this creek in 1862, recites the Geologi-
cal Press Survey Bulletin. A small
quantity OF gold was taken out of
these gravels by means of sluice boxes
on the creek near the present site of
Pioneer. The deposit afterward ex-
plotted by the Hope mine was discov-
cred in December, 1854, and in 1865
Philipsburg was founded inst south
of the mine. Since that time the Phil
ipsburg district has produced about
S50,OOOO0O in gold and silver.

Miners Clear Snow From Tracks

Mahanoy City, Pa, Jan. 29.-An
other snowstorm approaching the Sc
verify of BLIZZARD put the ceilieries
of this region out of commission.
Some of them did start, but were
obliged to suspend because the rail-
roads could not supply them with
empty cars. Passenger service was
carried on under difficulties, trains
-r'"'-'-s-- f~"~' three to four hours be-

Col traffic also suffered serious
handicap, despite the efforts of hun
dreds of men from the idle collieries,
who were kept shoveling snow be-
