Snow and Sunshine.
The Santa Fe west bound overland was bulletined fifteen hours late yesterday and inquiry at the office elicited the fact that fierce snowstorms are raging in the middle States. The fall has been so heavy in Kansas that the roads are all blockaded and the company is finding work for its snowplows. Nothing will impress the tourist to California more than a ride like this, for the change from the howling blizzards to this land of perpetual sunshine will be so impressive that the visitor will feel as if transported into another world.
