4 FREE BRIDGE OF ICE.
BucItinghamitcs Taking Advan-
tagc of 1.-THE Birds.

SCorrsvILLE, January 2l.-There is
now a "free bridge of ice " to Bucking-
ham county which extends the whole
length of hecounty front. The Bucking-
hamteS, who have been cut of 80 long
from the outer world, are making free use
OF their opportunity by visiting our side
quite extensively. Some of our citizens,
who have found q little more storing
space. are cutting elegant lO-inch ice
from the river.
At Payne's, four miles below town,
parties are putting over large number
Of railroad-ties on the ice by means of a
sled constructed for the purpose.
NEARLY A FIRE.
Major d. W. Anderson, who has a
saw mill located on the land of Mr.. Pey-
ton Coles, came near losing that and a
large amount of lumber by fire few
DAYS ago. The sawdust caught on fire
before the late snow and had not been
fully extinguished when the hands left
the mill, and as the premises were COW
cred in snow nothing more was thought
OF it until it was discovered that the fire
had burned its way nearly to the mill
and lumber just IN time to save II.
Every one | nave heard speak Of it
seems to think the proposition Of Mr..
Polk Miller to the farmers and others
relative to feeding birds, &C., is very
timely and calculated to do good, and
ought by all means to bo needed.
A large number of wells in this place
and vicinity are drying up, and most
of the streams are frozen ne : to the
bottom, watering stock in the cold wea-
ther Is becoming quite a serious item.

AN ARIZONA RUIN.
A Mysterious Building Found in
the HuaGhuca Mountains.

A Mysterious Building Found in
the Huaehuca Mountains.
San Fransico Call.
Arizona is plentifullv sprinkled with
the ruins of strange habitatlons. Most
of them are constructed of concrete or
adobe, and the mystery about them is the
identity of people who designed them.
How they could be built is not matter
of conjecture, as the materials are close
at hand. But there is one ruin, al
though still IN good state of presr-
walton, which is a mystery, no matter i'll
what light it is considered.
1t is in the Huachuca mountains, not
far from the military reservation, in a
northeasterly direction. Nothing is
known of its origin, and the wonderful
part is the material of which it is con-
structed. 1t is about 200 miles from the
ocean, and surrounded on all sides by
hills of sand rocks covered with cacti.
There is no water for miles, except the
excuses for rivers that run during the
rainy season. There is not even the sug
gestion of water. and yet the house is
built of seashelIs laid in q sort of
cement. Where the shells were OBJ
tanned is a mystery that may never be
solved.
1t does not seem possible that the
builder of the house would carry the
material over HUNDREDS of miles of desert
when there were plenty of rocks near
by that would answer the purpose just
as well, even though they were not so
unique. The house is built in the shape
of the straw huts of the Papago Indians,
and is about the same size. There is
room inside for five or six persons, but
at present nobody occupies it. except,
perhaps, some prospector who uses 1t
for temporary shelter in cold weather.
There are dozen varieties of shells in
the walls, and one over the door is of
extraordinary size.
The age of the building Will never be
known, but there is little doubt that 1t
is as old as the oldest in the territory.

RAILROADS sWAMPED.
Chicago Roads Doing the Great
est Business Even known.

CHICAGO, Oct. 7.-Never in the his
tory of the railroads centering in Chi
cago have they been so overwhelmed
with business as at the present
time. Everything with wheel
that can stick on rail has
been pressed into service, and the
roads declare that they can handle no
more people than they are now doing.
Seven large through specials, averaging
900 passengers each, besides a large
number of local specials and all the reg
ular trains, were required to handle the
business of the Michigan Central
today. The Rock Island brought
in IT'S cars, with 1880 passen-
gers. The Milwaukee & st. Paul is
running about three trains all hour. and
it is expected that by tomorrow morn
ing it will have brought in about $4,000
people. The Atchison is running every
train in five and six sections, and
doubling the number of cars i'll
every direction. The Alton, Burlington
and Northwestern roads are also
estimate at 10000 to $4,000 each. The.
total number of passengers who will
be brought into Chicago from Satur-
day morning to Monday morning is es-
timated at about 10000 There is,
of course, no certainty i'll these figures,
but it is the average estimate of the
passenger agents. all of whom unite in
declaring that Chicago day has given
them the greatest congestion of travel
they have ever known.
