Show Snow Slides. The Bevere anow storm of Friday was prolific of snow slides, many of which occurred on Friday night, and others yesterday. In Big Cottonwood there were thirteen slides between Argenta and Mill B, a distance of three and a half miles. At soveral points the oreek was dammed so as to overflow the banks and run down the road. The mail carrier and four others who accompanied him down tho canon yesterday morning, were four hours in traveling three miles. Some of the lime they were in water jup to their waists. They Buffered ex tremely from the cold. It was rumored, last evening, that a slide in Little Cottonwood had buriod a party of miners, but the story lacks confirmation con-firmation aud is probably without I foundation, as there is daily communication com-munication with Alta. |
