LOST IN A CORN FIELD.

of the vastness Of Nebraska cornnelds.
and ii is more than likely that com
paratIVely few Nebraskans realize that
the States CoTntieds are often TO be
measured by square miles instead OF
acres.
In 1883 Nebraska had a bumper corn
crop. Fairfield, Clay county, was set in
the midst of the finest corn land in
the State. On the west side of the
town was corn field fully ten miles
long by six wide broken here and
there by narrow roadways that mark
ed section lines One evening word
was sent uptown that the three year
old boy of family named Jackson
was lost in the field,
A hasty search OF the outer limits
of the field failed to reveal the boy
and darkness soon came. followed by a
heavy rain by O'Clock twenty men
and boys, with half as many lanterns
and a dozen torches, gathered about
the Jackson home to begin a systcmat-
ic search for the lost child Each man
was assigned to the task Of covering
four rows of corn and then. 200
abreast, the little army started out in
the darkness. mud aud rain Hour
after hour they marched across that
mammoth field, but without finding
any trace of the little fellow
Reports from the house were to the
effect that the mother was rapidly
sinking, and that the recovery of the
baby would be her only salvation. This
spurred the tired searchers to renew
ed efforts and for another two hours
the search was prolonged
A few of the searchers dropped from
sheer exhaustion, but the ranks were
closed up. The first four miles Of $40
field were thoroughly covered by mid
night, but the child was not found At
midnight hasty lunch was partaken
OF by the searchers. and after few
moments rest the search of the west
half of the great field was begun.
About o'clock in the morning the
rapid firing of revolver attracted the
attention of the searchers
"Hello." came n voice from out of
the darkness, seemingly mile away
Hello! there was the answer sent
back
For moment all was silent, and
then came shout that set the search
ers to cheering like mad The voice
from the darkness said
We've found the boy"
A young man belonging to the party
OF searchers had started down little
road to cross back to the searching
party. and by the dim rays Of his Ian
tern saw the lost boy sleeping quietly
in patch Of weeds by the roadside.
His dirty face was tear-stalned, his
bare legs cruelty cut by the corn blades
and his little frock was torn and filled
with burrs.

to her breast and tried to thank the
searchers, but tears choked her utter.

but he, too, failed But the sight of
the mother strainlng her little one to
her bosom repaid the weary searchers.

people Of Fairfield forget that black
and stormy night when they searched
