THE COLORADO BLIzzARD.-Denvcr, Col.
Nov. lO.-A Trinidad, Col, Republican
special says The bodies of John Martin
and Henry Miller, the cowboys frozen to
death near Sierra Grande, in the last week s
terrible blizzard, were brought to Folsom for
burial Four other men belonging to the
same party are missing, and it is feared that
they are dead. 1t is reported by parties
who know that at least twenty men are miss
ing from this range, and it is feared that
many will never be found.
Jolly and Wise, who escaped badly frozen,
tell heartrending story of their sufferings
When the blizzard struck them on Wednes-
day night of last week they were holding n
herd of 800 cattle. The wind became n
hurricane before morning, and they went on
the last guard about 3 A. Nj. The storm
was so binding that they could not hold the
herd, and jolly started to camp for help.
In the meantime Miller and Wise had left
the camp to assist in holding the cattle.
jolly could not find the camp and Miller and
Wise could not find the herd. All three
were drawn together by shouting, and they
wandered around till daylight when they
found Martin. The cold was so bitter that
the men entered a ravne and after fastening
their horses took the saddle blankets and
buried themselves in n snow drift about 3
T.. NJ, and it was only by the greatest efforts
that jolly and Wise succeeded in keeping
awake. They were slightly apart from Mar
tin and Miller, and had difficulty in talking
to each other. The snow piled upon them
to such weight that they were forced to seek
another drift. About 4 o clock Friday morn
ing Miller called jolly and Wise and told
them they had all better go, and when they
crawled ont they made search in the drift for
Miller and Martin. The latter could only be
found and he was dead They took their
horses and started, leading them. Soon
they found Miller on his knees, his horse
standing in front of him rs though trying to
protect him from the cold. He was asked to
get up and 60 with them, but was unable to
rise and was assisted to his feet, but could
not walk. jolly started to get assistance
while Wise remained with their dying COM
panion. Both of Wise's hands are frozen
and he was helpless and fast becoming in
sensible himself, when Mexican sheep her.
der found him and took him to Rhodes's
ranch, a few miles away. Men returned to
where Miller had been left and found him
lifeless."

hay added, but that Joseph had locked the

USE The ASHES.
The Amount Of money Wasted In
This Material In Portland.

In yesterdays PRESS brief jotting re-
ferred to the dumping of refuse at the cor
ner of Sheridan and Monument streets.
This was mistake A complaint was made
by woman that ashes were thrown on the
street and that the wind blew them against
the wash hanging on her lines.
The question naturally arises, why don't
the city collect the ashes and use them for
filling in new streets. Ashes are the best
material for this purpose, Some two years
ago committee from the board of health
and board of aldermen made report after
visiting several New England cities, and in
dorsed this plan showing that it would save
the citizens some $1,000 year and the city
great deal more. Only short time ago the
city wished to extend two of its streets to
the dump, and had to pay Moses Gould 20
cents foot for the required land which had
been made from the flats by the use of ashes,
thus costing the city several hundred unnec-
essary dollars. Nothing could be better than
ashes with which to fill the stagnant pools of
water at the west end, and the city buildings
make vast quantity of ashes each year
that could be utilized In this way, but now
are wasted. Foreign nations make for
tune by their economy out of what Ameri-
cans waste.
