A TERRIBLE NIGHTS ExpERIRHcE.


Mr.. J. X. Swayer, in conversation with
an EAGLE reporter yesterday, related thrill
ling adventure, which woman and her
eleyen-year-old son bad in the raging tor
rent of Spring creek, during the late freshet
at Medicine Lodge.
II appears that Mr.. Standifer, of Medicine
Lodge, WIS suddenly swept away by the
rushing torrent, and must inevitably have
been drowned had he not been dashed into
the branches Of stout tree. Having Sc
curely seated himself in his retreat, he was
rejecting upon his desperate situation and
the probability Of the tree washing away,
when suddenly woman came rushing by
with her eleven-year-old boy in her arms,
borne upon the bosom 9th merciless food.
Just as she seemed doomed TO destruction, a
tree-lop that was bobbing up and down in
the water caught her. With grasp born
of the desperation Of her situation, she
seized the branches of the tree, and, still
holding on to her child, she seated herself
on the bobbing boughs and screamed for
help. Standifer answered the woman with
cheering words. Meantime the food was so
rapid that to have quit his position would
have been sudden death. The tree On
which the poor woman sat, partaking Of the
motion of the water, would dip down once
in while until the water would rush clear
over her As she would be borne down
she pierced the air with the most he art
rending screams. So great was her peril
and her devotion to her boy that Standifer
hastily prepared to sttenpt her rescue, see
ing that her strength was failing. At this
juncture, and just as the woman assured
him that she was exhausted, a party of men
with boats came TO the rescue, and saved
both Standifer, the woman and her child.

MISREPRESENTED.

To the Editor of the EAGLE
| wish to correct a false impression made
by some bad person or persons in regard to
the 4. NJ. E. Church. Some of the business
men stated to one of our trustees as rea-
son why he should not give anything to
help us prepare for district conference and
Sabbath school convention, that he had
given money to help the \. NJ. E. Church q
week ago. Another stated that he had
donated something to help our church a few
DAYS ago. In both cases the parties solicit
ing were women.
Now. the truth of the matter il, the A. NJ.
E. Church has not called on the public for
help since November, 1888. Any person
soliciting means since that time in the name
of the 4. NJ. E. Church, has simply received
money under false pretense. We have not
authorized any women to solicit money for
our church. The trustees letter was pub
lisbed the 3rd inst, and the proper persons
named rs solicitors or receivers of all
moneys.
would like to impress the white friends
OF the importance of their aid and this work.
| suppose every church in the city has asked
aid since ours. We have not begged for
nearly two years, and now we don't want YOU
to say you can't help us this time. The
white friends viii receive at least 500 by or
through the conference and convention.
Let US see, there will be about 40 delegates
who will remain here about four days, (which
is equivalent TO about twentythree weeks for
one person. Board at S4 per week will
amount to S92. This amount will go to our
grocers, besides the many other articles
which may be purchased from our different
business men. So financially speaking our
city is benefited. Those who feel disposed
to help US and haunt the money may help
US by furnishing beds or other things they
may think We need.
The proper receivers Of the money or other
help are Dennis Sanders, L. G. Banks and
Jacob McAffee; also, Thomas Glover, Z. O..
box AL. j. w, TURNER,
Pastor, p. o. box 70.
p. S.-Next Sabbath is grand rally day at
the church and we hope all the friends will
give all they can by that time. Ii you have
anything just notify us. Yours,

THAT ANALYSIS.

Touching the analysis made by Prof
Siebel, of Chicago. of the five or six quanti
ties of water sent him, Of the report in full,
which was published in the official paper OF
the city, there is little which will be under
stood by the average reader. IT varys but
little, we are told, from the analysis made
several years ago at the instance of Col
Lewis. But from reading the letter ad-
dressed &c Councilman Richey, a wrong
conclusion might be drawn. A cumulative
analyses was not asked, but Councilmen
McAdams and Richey, in the first place.
agreed TO ask Of the Prof. general exami-
nation and opinion. In giving the latter to
Mr.. MeAeams, he conveyed the impression
that be could or might make a more ex-
plicit report. For the more explicit orin-
ion Mr. Richey wrote, and the letter to him
was only TO explain that no scientific guam
titive analysis was attempted. While we
believe that some Of the very shallow drive
wells in this city in certain localities may
not be as healthy or as free from organic
matter as the free, running water Of the val
ley generally, we do not believe that either
the waters of the Little or Big rivers, or Of
any wells twenty-five or thirty feet deep, are
less healthy than the waters of any other
section of the state.
