BY enriehing the soil to grow to-

in succession, the land is so full of
plant-food for the growth of all re-

AN ANXIOUS BRIDE
Awaits the Coming Of a Belated
Groom
WHOSE PATH THE BLIZZARD BALKs.
The Pair are Finally Wedded--A Weston
Bride and CIarksburg Groom Mar
edby Wheeling Rabbi.

Sometime ago Rev. Sessler made an en-
gsgement to marry Mr.. S. Klein, Of Wes.
ton, and Miss Clara Nussbaum, of Clarks-
burg. The ceremony was TO be performed
last Sunday morning and in view Of the
fact the reverend gentleman left the city
on the Saturday evening o'clock train
for the home OF the bride. He expected to
reach his destination that Eight, but on &C.
count Of the snow trains we're so impeded
that HE expectations were far from being
realized, as his Journey vas not completed
until / o'clock Sunday evening. Going
10 the home Of the bride Immediately. he
found her weeping bitterly. By inquiry,
he learned this unexpected state Of affairs
was the result of the groom not having as
yet made his appearance. The bride had
received dispatch early in the morning
from her lover that he would make the
Journey from his home, distance of tRen
ty-two miles, on horse, as trains were
not running on account Of the snow. The
grief depicted upon the couutenance of the
fair bride NAV have been the result Of
fears entertained that her intended might
perish in his sttemp: TO breast the raging
storm. However that may be, he arrived
at 10 o clock in the night benumbed and
almost frozen Ga reviving, the story he
disclosed almost rivals those of explor-
ers of the Arctic region.
Finding itimpossible to accomplish this
Journey in the manner he had dispatched
TO his bride he secured sleigh, driver
and four horses TO take him over the un-
broken roads and around the deep and i'm
passable drifts. Frequently he himeelt,
assisted by the driver, were compelled to
lay down ferces and go through fields for
some distance in order 10 get around the
drifted snow.
His journey completed, he found that
the expense incurred by his short travel
wus sixty four dollars. An hour after his
arrival the marriage ceremony was per
formed, and thus the saddest day OF their
lives was made the happiest.

Fighting Flames at a Disadvantage-The
Loss Placed at S25O,OOO.
CHICAGO, January l2.-The -four ware
house of Frederick C. Vehmeyer, No. l82
Kinzie street, took fire this morning, and
was almost entirely consumed with the
contents. The loss will reach $3.50, 900.
The fire was discovered shortly after seven
o'clock and gained such rapid headway
that successive alarms were sent out which
resulted in bringing the entire fire depart
ment to the scene. The building is
FIVE story brick, having frontage of near
ly one hundred and fifty feet on kinzie
street 1t was used as general warehouse,
the building being owned By the Fl. A.
Huntington estate. The structure was
completely destroyed, involving loss OF
Soc, 900, fully insured.
In the building was stored four hundred
tons OF broom corn, valued at $40 600, one
half of which was owned by Samuel Bayles,
who carried an insurance Of $4,000.
There was a vast amount of other property
stored in the building, which it is estima.
ted will swell the total loss to quarter of
q million dollars.
The temperature was l3 degrees below
zero, and the fremen in consequence were
compelled to make their fight against the
flames at great disadvantage, enduring
all the while the greatest hardship Their
only hope was in keeping the fire confined
to the Vehmeyer building, as the infiam-
msble nature ofits contents made its doom
positive, when once the flames had gained
considerable headway, which wa5 the
case before the first steamer reached the
scene Some of the hydrants in the Vi
cinity were found frozen, which kept some
Of the engines idle, but Toe majority were
able to keep plying reams into the burn
ing structure.
At o'clock the heat began to abate
somewhat, and soon atterward it became
evident that the fire would not extend be.
Yond the one building. The interior Of
the great structure was completely burned
out, presenting to the eye simply blacken-

fremen sustained minor injuries. The fire
slockaded Clark street and impeded street

city for several hours.

The. have heen accustomed at all times to

we're .nswered in various ways. A great
many yaiiit wns not sufficient 10 make their
rooms warm enough others said they had
enough, and that their dwellings were
comfortable. Al some places coal was
usel in connection with gas and there the
fires were found to be unnecessarily hot,
and in such houses it required continual
turning before the fire TO prevent a feeling

other vas too warm 10 be comfortable
That c,ass of houses were found to be open

pany, said in reply to an inquiry that there
were great many complaints a7 to the

Saturday has been better than for about
two months preceding, the reason being
that on that day their well, known as bar
clay No. 2, after having been thoroughly
cleaned, was connected with their pipe line
and thus the supply OF gas was greatly
augmeI red 1t is apparent that
where the gas is properly conveyed
