A WOLF STORY.


The Geneseo Republic records the fol-
lowing:
Some time ago we told the tale of Billy
ADderson's purchase of a wolf from O
travelling show. He got the beast with
the view of staking him out iu the forest
where bis howlings and lamentations would
attract other wolves, when Billy, who
wosld be lurking in the neighborhood
could shoot the providers. But as an
attraction for other wolves Billy's wolf
was not brilliant success. In the FIRST
place he wouldn't howl; but would sit
down on his lazy hams, and regard the
shivering Billy lurking in the bushes with
look of cold disdain. Thus be gained
finally the eamity nt a heart that once
beat 10 love for him. The other day two
or three neighbors called, and each OF them
had dog. Billy had been thirstiug for
revenge on the wolf. so he took the three
dogs and set the whole of them on the
wolf at once. The wolf. though hampered
with a chain, went drought that crowd OF
ours like streak of lightning, leaving them
wailing and CRASHING their teeth and half
dead. Billy was so disappointed that he
spraug at the wolf, intending to kick him.
when the wolf nipped him by the calf OF
his leg and upset Billey's whole establish
ment, He was rescued by the Deighbors
If anybody wants to buy a wolf cheap. he
will hear of something TO his advantage by
calling on Billy.

miles to where he lives, and in the face of
the binding snow storm to attempt to

ALMOST DROWNED.

A man named Barlow. while going from
this side to Davenport fell in the river at
the foot of l7th street about | | o'clock to-
day. He mistook the snow covered slush
for safe passage. aud went in before be
could slip aside. Fortunately plank was
handy and he had presencei OF mind to
grasp it and extricate him: self before be
went under the ice-not an easy job, either
as the snow was. piled up around him to
his;armpits. Had he gone under the ice,
his rescue would have been difficult
as the high wind would have made it un-
certain of hearing his cries for help. This
is the second case 10 "a hours, the other,
yesterday afternoon. ahas already been
noted in THE ARGUS. The ice is decid-
eddy unsafe and persons should be very
careful in crossing from either side.

At an early hour this morning. storm
of great severity visited this city and

CHICAGO, ROCK ISLAND PACIFIC
The trains on this road were suspended
to-day. though the train from Chicago left
there this morning. At last accounts II
was making little, if any progress, and it
was expected would not reach here until
late tonight. Trains out were abandoned.
and no attempt will be made to send out
the regular Chicago passenger this eve
ming. The snow is in heavy drifts neal
Atkinson and other places, rendering it
hard work for trains TO run. The trains
from Chicago had three engines and even
with this power could hardly make head
way.
CHICAGO. MILWAUKEE, s ST. PAUL
The trains on this road 10 either direc-
ton were abandoned and no train will be
in or out on this road to-day. The snow
is fifteen feet high in some places and in
one place there is solid drift for three
miles, To break through this mountain
of snow would be impossible 10 the face OF
the high wind prevailing and the trains
were therefore abandoned. This road has
been particularly unfortunate this winter
suffering more from snow blockade than
any other road. If the wind subsidies to
night, an effort will be made to clear the
track, though it is hardly possible that any
work will be done 10 this direction before
Monday.
ROCK ISLAND & MERCER COUNTY.
Trains on this road are blocked and no
effort was made to send out the regular
afternoon passenger today. There 10
mile of unbroken drift between Milan and
Gable and to attempt to force passage
through this while the present high wind
prevails would be useless. Should the
wind subside and the storm cease, snow
train will be sent out to clear. the track SO
that coal trains can reach Rock Island, but
no attempt will be made to remove the
snow drifts that at present are as high IS
the tops of the cars. A coal train will
probably be brought in some way on
Monday.
