snow storm Like the many other
severe elbow outs we have expert
enced the past few weeks, it was ac-
companied by a boisterous breeze
from the east, quickly filing all
paths and public highways, to an
impassable state The storm lasted
handy as long as some previous ones,
but it is generally conceded that
more snow fell than at any one time
for the winter. No train before
to-day since Saturday morning,
and the railroad hands report more
and larger banks to battle with than

WHO Is RlGHr.--A telegram was
recently sent from Darlington to tho
Chicago press stating that Frank
Thompson, of Hazel Green, had shot
Tony Baldwin, Of Shulhburs, dead,
caused by n quarrel over game of
cards, aud the Galena Gazette comes
out saying that the report was utter
ly untrue in every particular, that
there has been no quarrel between
the two man. Then Sheriff Lane,
of Grant County, informs the editor
of the Lancaster Herald "that
shooting affray took place at Hazel
Green in which Frank Thompson
fatally shot one Tony Baldwin,
killing him instantly. 1t is said
that Thompson had already been
attacked with knife and cut
severely in the face, when ho drew
revolver and shot. Baldwia had
recently returned from Leadville or
some of the mining towns, and had
been drinking pretty hard for some
weeks back. The quarrel resulted
ovcr disagreement at game OF
poker, Baldwin claiming the stake
money, which he held in his hand
and drawing knife with the other
attacked Thompson, slasb.ng him in
the face. Thompson drew his pistol
and shot him in the breast with fatal
elect. lie fell to tho floor dead
man, with tho money IN one hand
and the knife in the other. Later
reports maintain that Baldwin show
ed table against Thompson, push
ing him into corner and proceeded
TO cnt at him with his knife, thus
making Baldwin the attacking
party

We have been taking birds eye
view Of the matrimonial market
lately, and to be frank this "busi-
ness" transaction came not altogether
unexpected. Both contracting par
ties are to be congratulated, as each
is worthy the good fortune TINS
gained, and we trust the life-voyage
upon which they have entered may
never be disturbed by the slightest
ripple of trials.or tribulation.

THE matrimonial market has been
rather inactive of late, possibly ow-
ing to the snow blackades, but from
present indications and rumors, is
soon to be revived, and the marriage
bells promise to ring into existence
happy futures for some Of our young
people. The TRIBUNE will be on
hand with its blessings and wishes
of unlimited happiness.
