The manifesta- tions are gencrally attributed to the nationalist associations.

A warm rain or high temperatures will set loose an mvalanche that will swell the small streams and choke the rivers, Continued cold will keep the snow and ice cover pent up, increasing the danger that it will go out eventually as a flood, niv a gradual thaw will ease t uation, The snow bianket, deep southern Maine, where t¢ has fallen during the winier, and measuring between 90 and 100 Inches elsewhere in the northern, tier of states, has been tound in measurements at Pl lows Falls, Vt, to hold more water than fn any year of which there are records. Experts of the Bellows Falls Canal Co. measuring the snowfall on the banks of the Connecticut river there said exceptionally high water was. forecast. Ice in the rivers is thick and if it goes out with the water at freshet pitch may cause damage at exposed river points or break down f¥dges and barriers. At some points dynamite is being used to blast a channel so thet the ice will go down without jamming. The extent to which the riv- ors have been frozen is indicat- ed by the fact that Lake Cham- plain is lower than in mady years at this season the result of lack of the usual supply of water from streams. : KRUGER'S GOLD SAID T0 HAVE BEEN FOUND More Than $3,000,000 in | | | Conmcu f Aty th State 1.
