than nt any time since tfru ig storm Tho sidewalks have been generally speak ing sufficiently to enable podestrithis to walk dryshod Tho city ordinance pi ovides that after i snow each property holder shall clear the sidewalk opposite tho property immediately in order that the snow shall not be packed down tight by pausing feet Notwithstanding the snow tho at tendance at the Sunday schools and at the churches was excellent and a good many young men ami women made a special effort to be on hand at service during the day Traffic on the streets was heavier than at any time since Thursday al though driving an automobile was no easy task and was rendered uncom fortable duo to the hummocks of snow which developed at many points about the streets It is already realized that the re cently laid smooth paving on both sides Of the struct car tracks on Main street has been badly damaged On the northbound track the damage seems to have been especially Large cakes of asphaltic coating have come up and the entire surtace is three or four inches higher than the street car track This believed to have been due to snow finding its way under the surface to the bricks and in this way forcing up the upper surface This will be a heavy expense to the city The peril of more roofs caving in was believed today to be parsing with th melting of the snow gradually re lieving the burden of the snow laden roofs The last roof to cave in was on Sun day afternoon about two o'clock when a portion of the roof over the hall of the Junior Order United American Mechanics located on Main street fell in ortunately there was no one In the building at the time The noise of the crash at tracted members of the fire depart ment across the street and they went to the hall on the third floor and found a portion of the roof covering an area of about 20 by 30 feet caved under by the weight of the snow The part of the root across the hallway did not fall this being supported by the petition between the two sections ot the structure City Engineer Linville had a force of men working all through the night removing snow from Main street Last night the high banks in the gutters were carried away in trucks and dumped into the river He will continue this work every night and hopes to have the busi ness section of town cleared by the middle ot the week Miss Ella tValdron Dies At Hospital Miss Ella
