A Hard Experience

Pierre Signal: Reports are now COM
ing IN about the blizzard Of last Thurs
day, and it is beginning to realized what
q terrible storm it was. The last train
that went u of Pierre before the
blockade, in charge of Conductor Lew
Bryant, carried as a passenger from this
city Mrs. j. j. Kleinerwas on the
way to Join her husband in Washington
City. Mrs. Klelner, VINO has reached
Chicago in safety. but the experiences
she passed through on the way we're not
calculated to engender very pleasant
reooliections.
The train had reached a a point within
o mile OF Ballatin, q small town west of
afternoon, when the water and fuel on
the engine became exhausted and it was
Gompelled to cut loose to ~ The rnn
TO Tracy, leaving the train at . stand
still. Meanwhile the telegraph had
announced at the station the coming of
the blizzard that would be along in
short order Hasty preparations we're
made ct the town TO rescue the passen-
gers in the imprisoned train, within
sight. Sleds were provided, with all the
rope the village afforded, which was at
tached to the sleds, which were nder
charge of trusty drivers, and started out.
Reaching the train the passengers we're
transferred to the sleds, but hardly
had they started back than
the storm pane on. Then the wise care
shat had provided the ropes was sppre-
ciated. Often did the sleds get stalled
il the huge drifts that beset their way,
and their human loads were in despair of
reaching the town alive, but the trip
was finally accomplished. Onr inform
ans tells Us of one, q certain business
man of Huron, who was among the pas
sengers, and who went to the sled occu-
pied by the ladies, and there forcibly
robbed them of all the quilts and wraps
they had, which were sent out by the
townpeopie, remarkipg that they were
gong to freeze anyhow and they insight
as well take the quilts first as last. The
only pity was that the bastard
escaped the blizzard with the rest. Mrs.
Kleiner was somewhat frozen, but with
good care nothing serious will result
from her rough experience.
