Wher the traia was made ap it consisted of an immense snow plow, forr engines, three constriction cars, the commis- eary car and the superintendont’s ca-, in the order named. When all wasin readiness, Mr, Odell said to Mr. Eata- brook, *“I've got the best crew T ever bad for sach work. You will see scme fun.

From Wallace to Cheyeune We'ls thero are twonty deep cats, from 400 to 700 feet in length, and it had been reported, and such was found to be the case, tha: snow had drifted and acven to twelve foot deep, the drifts for a few feet iu some inataccas beig still deeper. These drifts wero plow. ed throuzh saccasfully. Ia ove or two instances a second trial was neces- sary, but in most casea the engineers, o crowding on a full hexd of stesm, d going st the «u: with inereased i ugh the and out bej oud, cleaving path s they progremed.

Itwasas clear as daylight, the sie cold and chilly,but the wind entirely subsided. Tte tesin was brought up to the cast end of tha cutsnd asarvey of the task to be accomolished was taken. All hands wers ordered out, sod the locomotives prshed the cars back fir about two miles, where they were left apon the main trsck. Ths shovelers were ordered to go upon the bank end as rapidly as possible, in gangs cf four men each, cot tronches in the snow across the track, as desp es could bo without tyo mach loss of tiase, aud about hive feet apact. This work wae for the purpose of disturbing the sol- idity of she moantala_ of snow, sad of br-nhm; up the maza as muck 88 pos- le. The shovelors weat at the task a will,and In » short ime this labor had been sccomplished. Then everything was mads ready for the charge on the szow with the ponder- plow. Al hands secared as olig ble a position as poasible o witness the grand sostie. The engices went back for tke distance of am'le snd a halfto galn a greater degraeof velocity. The engiveers and firemen stood at their poats firm and fest. Full head of steam had been attained, and the powerful engines fairly trembled to exhaust their strength. The word was given, and the englues were thrown wido open and came rushing along the track st & rate of spoed which sent thesparks flying from the flanges ad shot clouds of Same from the emoke stacks. As the gigantle plow waa delven with frightfol sud re- force into the wall of snow, sof upon the ep:ctator was sach as oan be experienced under Lo other circumstanos. Bails of saow weigh and pounds wera sent from the great ircn chate of the plow, as the monstrous machine rashed for » distance of 600 feetinto the cut, Then the wonderful force was spent and ft was kaown thet anotber snd parhaps soversl triels would ba nicessary be- fore the «nlive soventeen hundred teet csuld be gone thrcugh. The plow and ths locomotives were completely buried in snow and seversl men walk- ed over the smoke stack: aud cabs on the suow piled alove them. Tae shovelers were ordered to cut out the eugizes, and the hundred mon went to will to remove the snow thom. It oopsumed about one hour to accomplish this sask 1[sud then suother charge was made with the same terrible excitement and danger, It rcquired four charges to out thiough the enow, and then tho plow was pushed through into the open plain beyond, ard then tso sta- tion of First View was reached at about 11 o'clock. From First View to Hugo the snow encoustered was overcomo with comparative etas and Hugo was reached early Tuesday faorning. At this point the snow brigade from Denver was met, and the road was declared ‘‘open for travel,” end at 7 o'clock the passen- gers of the three tralus from the east wbich hed been blockaded, were put ahoard one frain 2ud hesdtd by two englnes, stosmed oat for Denver, reaching the Qaeen Oity at 11:30 that day.
