UTAH'S PREMATURE WINTER
Snow Flakes Covered Ihe Heavy
Foliage
The Mountains' Sides Are Mantled In
White and Overcoats Are
All the Rage
SALT LAKE, Sept. 21.—Climatic con
ditions took a suddon change lust night
and this valley was visited by a heavy
rain and followed by a snow storm,which
broke the drouth that has prevailed sitice
June. The rain of last June was very
light and rain or snow was becoming al
most a necessity. The water supply of
the city, which comes from mountain
streams, was very low and was getting to
be a serious question. The farmers
throughout the valley had not been able
to do any fall plowing on account of dry
weatner. Ie is estimated that the storm
has been worth many thousands of dol
lars to the farmers.
At o o'clock yesterday afternoon tbere
was a decided drop in temperature and a
heavy rain set in, wnich lusted until 10
o'clock and then turned to snow. The
snowfall continued until noon today and
at times was accompanied by a cold
north wind. Oveiooats were brought into
general use today, which is a very un
common thing for this season of tbe
year. Up to this time tbere has been no
frost here, and the heavy foliage covered
with snow anc tbe general appearance of
everything in the street made a striking
scene of genuine winter.
The storm began north of Ogden and
extended generally over the valley for
more than a hundred miles south. The
lirst stieet car to Fort Douglass, on the
east branch this morning, carried a snow
plow to clear the snow off the track.
Telegraphic communication was tem
porarily interrupted.
The sunsbine this afternoon melted
moat of tbo snow in ihe valley, but the
mountains are covered with a mantle of
snow.
At Other Points
RAWLIXS, Wye, Sept. 21.—A heavy
northeast snow storm early this
morning. Snow is eight inches deep on
a level and it is still snowing. There are
fears for sheep still on the mountain
ranges. Should the weather turn cold,
there will undoubtedly be heavy losses.
LARAMiE, Wyo., Sept. 21.—Tbe lirst
snow storm of the season reached here
early today. The temperature has fallen
'J5 degrees since midnight, with a cold
east wind blowing.
DENVER, Col., Sept. 21.—For a week
ColDrado has been sweltering under neat
unusual for September, but today tliere
rami a sudden change, a chilling wind
from the northeast sending the tempera
ture down like a shot. Tonight, after au
hour of rain,snow began falling and pros
pects are favorable for its continuing all
night.
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Sept. 21.—A
Leadville, S.D. .special to the Journal sasy:
Six inches of snow lias fallen at Haiti
Mountain and three inches here. There
havo been no frosts and the trees in full
leaf are breaking beneath the load of
snow.
NAVY MACHINISTS' GRIEVANCE
The Department Likely to Lose Its Beat Men
Shortly
WASHINGTON Sept. 21.—A1l the ma
chinists of the navy have a grievance and
unless tbis is speedly redressed, tbe ser
vice is likely to be ehort of the best grade
of mechanics. By tbe department's sys
tem they have been graded into three
classes, chief, first and second class ma
chinists, with pay in proportion.
According to tho practice of the depart
ment a man cannot he enlisted an a chief
machinist, hut mii9t enter one of tbe
lower grades and await promotion. This
bas brought about the result that where
a person has served faithfully for a num
ber of years and by ability attained tho
rank of chief machinist, he must, if bo
desires to continue In the naval service at
the conclusion of his term of enlistment,
re-enlist in the lower grades, taking his
cbanoes of again getting his old rating
as chijf, and losing about $1 a month un
til he succeeds. In the event that he
re-enlists at once, on tha same ship
on which he had been serving, he suffers
no loss, as ha is immediately rated as
chief, but in the moro frequent cases I
where he has to leniuin for months on a I
receiving ship awuiting assignment, bis j
loss is considerable.

than one moot h I wus able to ride out, and now I can walk a mile or more without feeling
tired. May God bless and spare you to your many f riouds for years to come.
