Singular Incident.

A singular incident is related "s oc-
curing just before the death of Mrs.
DR.. Allen at Steele. a wild duck from
some unknown quarter lit at the back
door of the house about half an hour
before the lady died. The bird was of
size between teal and a canvas back.
and of black and white notified coat
almost exactly like a piece of polka
dot calico. No similar bird has been
seen by any one who saw this one.
Commissioner March, who was pres
emf, said he has hunted great deal
and never saw one like it. <rhe bird
was taken into the kitchen, fed and
put in a box and has been kept. There
are no ducks in the vicinity at this
time:

Mrs. sGoudreausofs Stevenson Ind q
narrow escape in the recent blizzard.
She was driving home from. Fort
Yates, distance of thirty miles, and
was caught i'll the storm half way.
She tied up the reins and let the
horses have their own way. Once they
stopped and she found herself on the
edge of high cliff. She led the horses
to the road again, and again gave
them their heads. H 8
When they finally stopped at home,
she did not know where She was. as
the storm was SO fierce. Her dog had
gone ION ahead and her husband had
spent an anxious half=hour awaiting
her return. She had with her her
three little children, who were UNI
harmed.
The stockmen are on the anxious
seat. AS vet there have been no losses.
but should next month be a cold one
the loss is likely to be heavy. The
Indians are out of hay. The govern
ment is buying feed for them and will
take care of their cattle.

Fish from a Wreck.

1t is asserted that the farmers in
the vicinity of Clear Lake busted
themselves after the Northern Pacific
wreck there hauling fish from the
wrecked cars. There was at one time
an opinion prevalent that it was inn
possible for farmer to steal any
thing from railroad company-that
he was merely getting back part
of what he had paid for.
