JO miles north of Wallace, Idaho, over moun tains which have been made impass able by the record-breaking snows and numerous slides, is practically isolated today, and unless the O.-W. R.

Wash.. Jan. 19. (Spe cial Drift Ice. coming down from colder regions, has almost filled the Columbia River for the past Jo noun. It lodges against the big steel draw-hrlria-n of the North Bank Railroad. and is backed up beyond the course of the ferry between Vancouver and tne Oregon side. There was more than a foot of snow In the city, while In the country, farther back from the Columbia River. It was much deeper, being about two feet at Yacolt. Country and farmers' telephone lines are yet out of order. Vancouver has four trunk lines to Portland, but on UIay there was a time when there were only two lines running into Port land, one being from Vancouver and the other from Orearon City. On Satur day there- was little connection wun Portland, but finally one line was con nected up. The temperature at the surface of the Columbia River is seven to eight degrees colder than an official seif reglstering thermometer at Sixth and Washington street. Portland. Today many parties enjoyed sleigh rides, but a little later the runners cut through. BRIDGE GOES OCT AT GREEXS Donglas County Fruitgrowers Say Snowfall Will Aid. ROSEBURG. Or., Jan. 19. (Special.) Although the recent storm raging throughout Douglas County abated late yesterday, trains are still operating from two to 12 hours late. Last night's trains from the south, which were due before midnight, did not arrive until noon today, and tonight's trains are reported several hours late. The chief trouble encountered by southbound trains, occurred between Oakland and Sutherlln. where 800 feet of track was under water. Several minor slides on Klce Hill also hindered In the opera tion of trains. The chief local damage resulting from the heavy rains was the destruc tion of a county bridge at Greens, and ilamage to a bridge at Cmpqua. The light fall of snow following the rain is considered beneficial by fruitgrow ers, who say It will have a tendency to hold back the fruit and thus avoid damage by Spring frosts. Telephone and telegraph communication was re stored today after being paralysed since Friday afternoon. EIGEVE IS FREE FROM SXOW Fall in Mountains Reported to Be From S to 1 5 Feet Deep. EUGENE. Or.. Jan. 19. (Special.) Except for the disarrangement of train schedules and inability to reach points north of Albany by telephone or tele graph, Eugene has felt little effect of the storm that has been raging over the Northwest. The valley from Albany to Eugene has been fairly normal. Weather has been frosty today, but there has been no snow fall in this vicinity for ti hours and the ground ' bare In the valley. Nearby foothills, however, are white and In the mountains there are from three to 15 feet of snow. Small slides delayed trains near Cottage Grove, but the California trains are It hours late, due to trouble In the Siskiyous. VMATII.I.A FARMERS REJOICE Snow Melted by Chinook Wind and Crops Are Benefited. PENDLETON. Or., Jan. 19. (Spe cial.) Approximately five inches of snow have fallen here within the last 18 hours. The thermometer tonight is dropping rapidly. Trains on the Wash ington division of the O.-W. R. & N. Company are from six to 14 hours late, owing to drifting between' here and Weston, while all trains from the East are running several hours late. Train men report four to six feet of snow in the mountains east of here, with dan ger of drifts from the brisk winds pre vailing. Much moisture has gone Into the (round during the last tew days, owing to Chinook winds, farmers declare, as suring bumper crops for the coming aeason. Snow at Springfield Light. SPRINGFIELD. Or..

At Blue River It was 18 Inches deep to day; at McKenzle Bridge, a little fur ther up, it is about the same. At Oak ridge, the terminus of the Natron ex tension of the Southern Pacific, it is several inches deep, and the same at the stations along the Mohawk branch of the Southern Pacific. Willamette River was 12 feet above low water mark Saturday night, but It is gradual ly receding. The heavy rain of the night before melted a great deal of snow In the mountains.

While the sky was cloudy a portion of the day, the sun shone brightly at times, no snow fell and some of the ice that had formed during the night was melted.

Small BoY Stm Finds Iiife Joyous small roj an" a-..- but Traffic Is Back to Normal. Telegraph Lines Repaired, but Some Telephones Are Out. Portland now is waiting for an ac commodating Chinook wind to come along arid clean the streets of snow. Aside from the snow, there are few remaining effects of the recent storm that began late Friday and continued through that night. In its present con dition the snow is a nuisance. It is too soft to afford good sleighing, and Just soft enough to make it exceedingly miserable underfoot. People have tried to clean the snow oft their Bidewalks and to remove It from all those places where its presence causes annoyance, but they havb been only measurably successful. So they will have to wait for the first warm breeze to do what they are not able to accomplish. Quite a few sleighs were out on the streets yesterday. They got along only reasonably well on the residence streets where travel is not frequent, but when they tried to slide over the business avenues they presented sorry spectacles. Usually it was possible to keep one runner on the snow, but the other generally scraped along with a dull, grating sound upon the pavement. Small Boys Have Sport. Snowballing was a favorite outdoor pastime yesterday, and young and old alike indulged in it. Coasting down the steep grades on some of the West Side streets demanded the close atten tion of many small boys. Meanwhile a lowering temperature prevented the snow from accomplishing much in the way of a thaw, and kept a good many people indoors. Women wore furs to church yesterday and ap peared to be comfortable. Street-car service no longer is suf fering. Neither is train service. Trains ran into Portland on normal schedules yesterday. There were some cases of tardiness, but this was due to other causes than Friday's fall of snow. It will take a few days for the tele phone companies to repair the wires that were broken by the snow hang ing on them. Hundreds of drop wires between the poles and the houses snapped. Linemen worked yesterday to re-connect them. Telegraph Liaea Repaired. Both the Postal and Western Union telegraph systems were able to restore complete service yesterday.

A letter enclosing a clipping from the Edmonton Alta Bulletin of January 14 was received by a Walla Walla paper today giving first in formation of the man, whose mys terious disappearance seven years ago excited the whole valley. A former Walla Wallan now living at Edmonton saw a man on the street who closely resembled George, and found that he received mall under the name of George W. George. He communicated with Walla Walla residents and received in formation regarding the efforts to have an administrator appointed. The Ed monton paper declares that "unless there are two men of the same name and answering to the same description it appears that the father is still alive. The paper states that the son, Frank George, has been communicated with, and the mounted police have been asked to investigate in Alberta. VIRGINIA .

The party as sembled at the north end of the Ford street bridge, which they left at 2 P. M., immediately after engaging in a snowballing contest.- The hikers climbed the hills to the southwest and set out on the long ascent to the main divide. As the snow became deeper the party marched single file, as a trail had to be made through the snow, which had an aver age depth of 18 inches on the hills. The snow was just moist enough to make snowballing easy, which pastime was indulged in most strenuously by many of the members of the party. From being made targets for their fellows and wrestling in the snow banks, a few came to resemble ani mated snow men, with their clothing and faces plastered with snow. The party followed the ridge to Mount Calvary Cemetery and returned to the city by the Barnes road. In the party of 40 persons were R. W. Ayer, Arthur Alden, J. C. Bush, E. H. Bulllvant, J. E.

Washington Mountains Makes Reconstruction Necessary. SEATTLE, Jan. 19. The prodigious snowfall of the present Winter, which has caused heavy financial loss' to the three transcontinental railroads that cross the Cascade Mountains, Is ex pected to hasten the carrying out of th plans of all three roads for recon struction of their mountain divisions. The Northern Pacific announced last Fall that it would double-track 10 miles -of mountain road at a cost of Jl, 000, 000, and construct a steel via duct 165 feet long at Weston, to cut off two miles of track that are hard to keep clear in Winter. The Milwaukee Railroad has given orders to expedite its tunnel at Sno qualmle Pass, work to be pressed at both sides of the mountain. The Great Northern has been unable to keep open its line Immediately west of the long tunnel, and it is said that construction of the long-proposed 10 mile tunnel that would pierce the mountain at a much lower level than the present bore. Is at present under consideration. The proposed route will take much of the scenery, found in crossing the mountain in the Summer time, but will make the Journey in Winter safe.

Trains from the east were reported from two to five hours late, the delay being caused princi pally by trouble in the Rocky Moun tains. RECLAMATION WORK HALTS Weather Stops Sounding in Tula , Lake Temporarily. . KLAMATH FALLS, Or., Jan. 19. (Special.) The party of engineers sounding Tule Lake have been com pelled to stop the work on account of the weather. It is not known how long it will take the Reclamation Serv ice to secure the complete recovery of the northern part of the lake bed, for It will depend on the rate of evapora tion. That has been light the past season, because of the unusual rain fall, the cloudy weather reducing the rate of evaporation below normal and the rainfall adding more water to the lake than ordinary. It has been estimated that from four to five years will be required before the lands can be thrown open for set tlement under the homestead law, but the area uncovered each year will prob ably be leased by the Government.
