UN
DER SNOW.
A SNOW SLIDE IN WHICH SIX WOMEN AND
A BOY WERE KILLED,
A dispatch on Saturday from Sierra
City, Cal., says that a fatal and destruc
tive snow slide occurred there on Friday
by which six women and a boy were
killed; two other people may die and
several houses and a Catholic church were
wrecked. The slide swept with terrific
force down the valley, carrying everything
in its path before it. Several people had
narrow escapes from death, as the slide
came without the slightest warning. As
soon as possible after the slide, a number
of men began the work of digging out
the unfortunates who had been caught in
it, and in few hours had taken out the
bodies of Mrs. Rich, her two daughters
anil a son; Miss Ryan, of Downieville,
and Mrs. J. T. Mooney, with her daugh
ter, Miss Ethel Langton. The last two
named were still breathing when removed
from the snow, but efforts at resuscitation
proved unavailing. Search for others is
still going on, and it is feared that more
thau is now known may have been swept out
of existence in the avalanche.

thoroughly by all the doctors of that sec

thing organically wrong with his system.
Mr. Morgan went to Baltimore last sum
mer, and was there examined by eminent
physicians, who also failed to find anything
whatever wrong with him. lie took to
his bed in October, and gradually wasted
away until his death.
