p1ERs FROZEN TO DEArH.-Ca;caao, Febru-
ary IA letter from Fort Abcrcrombic
says that on Friday the 18th instant there
was the most tempestuous storm on the
plains experienced this winter. On that
day Charles Warner, in company with six
soldiers and an Indian scout, left Fort Ran
som for Abercrombie. The soldiers and
the scout were soon left behind, and Mr..
Warner heard no more Of them until Sa
tnrday evening. While stopping at the
station on the route the scout came in badly
frozen, and hardly able to talk, reporting
that the soldiers the day previous had rot
lost in the driving storm, and, unhitchnc
The mules, had campcd out on tho prairics,
all being more or less frozen. The Indian
covered four of them with snow, the other
two preterring to remain in the open sleigh,
and started for assistance. He travelled
that night and oil the next day, and finally
arrived at the station, but 80 badly frozen
and exhausted as to have no clear idea
whore the soldiers were left buried. His
tracks having been covered by the drift, it
was impossible to follow them back, and no
search was made for the missing men.
They are probably all dead. On the same
day two men chopping wood near Alcxan-
tr'a were lost, and have not since been
heard of.
