n relief work and in keeping the racks as clear as possible. C. A O. Delayed. On the 0. & 0. no trains were repbrted stalled but an passenger trains were running way behind schedule. Only a few freight trains were sent out. City street car serrice was completely suspended at 11 o'clock this morning and probably no cars will be operated tomorrow unless conditions are greatly improved. The first traction car from Richmond to Indianapolis Wan forced to stop at Dublin. The next two cars, westbound, did not get no far. one reaching Cambridge City and the other stopped at the West Richmond car barns. No eastbound cars arrived in Richmond. Very irregular east and west service was maintained on the Ohio Electric lines. Telephones Crippled. Early this morning the Ohio telephone connections out -of Richmond were affected by the storm. About noon the Dayton line was put out of commission, and many of the southwestern lines were badly crippled. Manager William Bailey with a corps of lineman left for the state line late this afternoon and had not returned. The Cincinnati connections were still accessible, although it -- is expected they may be broken at any time. Con nections with northern and western points are being maintained. The city telephone service was slightly hampered by the sleet. Many individual phones have been put out of commission, especially in the suburbs. Many crossed wires have been reported. The snows in this locality began early Sunday afternoon and was still raging with unabated fury at a late hour this afternoon. The snow was driven in every direction by strong shifting winds. Citizens Stay Home. Only those people whose business required them to, ventured out in the blizzard today. The wind-driven flakes out the face sharply and to walk into the gale with a slippery surface to walk upon was hazardous business. In the rural district there were many drifts as high as the tops of

Quaker Co-eds Mix Politeness With Basketball Knowledge

"Gwendoline, please dp paaa the ball." "Beg pardon. Miss , I assure you that was entirely unintentional." "Oh. fudge, what horrid luck." "She should worry." These were expressions attending the 8-5 victory of the Earlham girls' basketball team over Cedarrille college Saturday afternoon at the school gym. The contest was witnessed by praetlcally every member of the school, who applauded the efforts of the basketball tossers with a vim. .The game was not overly fast, but thts deficiency was more than overcome by the politeness of the opposing teams. In fact, this departure of the game featured. Girls are Speedy. No denying the Quaker lasslee are fast, for despite the enthusiastic ef

forts of the Cedarville co-eds, the Yellow and White led throughout, but only the fact that the guards of the opposing aggregations devoted too much time to arranging their hair, prevented a closer score. Miss Shute, former high school star, was the bright light for the Quakerltes, with a pair of basket and a couple of foul points to her credit. Miss Clarke caused quite a flurry In the ranks of the Earlham supporters by caging a laid goal that made Abe Rowe wince with envy, and caused Roas Williams to bow his head In sorrow. Other bright lights of the Earlham team were Miss Modlsette, Miss Bowen, Miss Reed and Miss Jones. For the visitors, Miss Turbell caused the most excitement with a trio of markers. Miss Morton made the other points for her team.

RUB BACKACHE AWAY WITH OLD TIME OIL

fenees and the inmates of farm houses were held prisoners of the blizzard. Rural mail carriers thanked their lucky stars that this was a holiday and they were not required to make an effort to make deliveries. They will start out on their routes tomorrow morning, but. do not expect to make any progress. Sunday afternoon Samuel Albert, 216 North Fourteenth street, an aged man, fell at the corner of Fourteenth and A streets, being blinded by the Snow storm, and had to be removed to his home in the oity ambulance.

If the snow continues It is expected she will not be able to reach the Associated Charities office for at least a day or two.
