Pittsburg Dispatch. Snnvr From n Clenr Sky. The most wonderful snowstorms of all that may bo seen every winter in tho Adirondacks aro those that prevail when tho sky is cloudless. Of these there are several varieties. Every week or two we would see what looked like a fog form about the distant hills and then come drifting across the creek valley. Doubtless it was a real snow laden cloud thnt had been drifting along until it struck our level (1,300 feet above the sea) in the. Adirondacks, when the conditions became favorable for tho release of its feathery burden. We saw these clouds fill tho air with flakes that were driven along almost horizontally by a strong gale, although the tops of our old hemlocks and spruces rose into the clear air and un obstructed sunlight above the highest level of the snow producing air strat um. We even saw the snow so thick in tho air about us that tho trunks of trees six feet above the earth were not visible, although tho treetops could be ' seen, and the sun shone down through the shallow storm with strength enough to cast distinct shad ows. We have stood on a quiet, sunlit hill top and looked down into a valley less than 100 feet below us. where a snow storm was raging with violence and the temperature was frigid. Scrlb-'ner's.

The Pled Piper of Ilamelin was a Wend; so also was the piper of tho Harz mountains, who appeared so many days a year and played unearthly tunes and whosoever heard at once fell into a frenzy, from which there was uo escaping. All those pled and weird pipers assembled once a year at the Brocken, where there was a general carnival, tho arch fiend lead ing the concert on a violin, witches rolling around and fiddling on the skulls of horses and the pipers adding the concert of their unholy instru ments.
