CITY IS HIT BY LITTLE BLIZZARD WEATHER MAN MADE AN AWFUL MESS OF HIS REPORT IN PREDICTING THURSDAYS WEATHER. TRAINS ARE DELAYED: People who had been inveigled by the weather man into thinking that winter was over and that we were have nothing but beautiful, balmy a epring weather from now on, had sad awakening Thursday morning, when they got out of bed to see "the beautiful" coming down thick and fast, and the derce wind driving it in sheets, making a small elzed blizzard. The storm began at an early hour in the morning and by seven o'clock the ground was covered for several inches.

The snow kept up all day until evening, when It ceased. However, the wind was at Its fiercest about six o'clock at night and blew the light snow into good sized drifta, At the same time it made it most unpleasant for people who had to be on the street. About nine o'clock in the morning there came a let up, and the sun gave some indication of coming through the clouds but it fulled in ita efforts, and later the storm again settled down In real earnest. Trains passing through this city were delayed somewhat during the day, although by night they were running on schedule time and continued to be on time throughout the night. The local trolley company had Its sweeper put early in the morning and traffic on all the lines was kept open throughout the day.

The storm was one of the most severe of the winter, and was the only snow storm that has been accompanied by wind. Many were reminded of the great blizzard of 1888.

and in the early morning it was feared that there might be a repetition of this territe storm, but fortunately the present storm did not "make good" to this extent. Business was at a standstill, and the streeta were almost deserted. MME, ENEMA EAMES HERE. Arrived with Her Party Night and la Quartered at the Nelson House. Mme.
