CRAZED BY THE COLD.
Man Found Wandering on Prairie
With His Eyes Frozen Shut.

YANKTON, s. D., Feb. 12.-Anton
krempge, tragedian, while walking
across the prairie near here yesterday
was caught by the fierce blizzard and
had narrow escape from death.
Krempge set out on foot from the town
of Epiphany to fulfill an engagement
at q town about four miles distant, not
withstanding that the mercury stood at
10 degrees below zero and there was a
high northwest wind. He wore a slouch
hat. with no protection for his ears,
was without an overcoat, had no COW
ering for his hands but light pair Of
mittens and carried a satchel.
AT sundown he was seen by two
farmers running around in circle. At
tracted by the peculiar antics of the
stranger, they went to him and discov-
cred that he evidently was half-frozen
and entirely out of his mind. The cold
wind had made the tears run down
Krempge's face and the intense cold had
frozen the tears over his eyes, which
were closed tight by the ice thus
formed. AS he could not see he lost the
road and had been wandering helplessly
for hours. The farmers bundled him
into their wagon and took him to their
home. where they finally succeeded in
thawing him out. Although he had re-
covered consciousness his reason had
apparently left him, and he lies in bed
at intervals calling for help and ex-
claiming that he was being buried alive
in a snowdrift.

Topeka, Kans., Feb. 12.-Reports
of the intensity Of the blizzard sweep
ing over Kansas to-day are coming to
the railroad offices here and show that
there is great suffering in many 10
calities. Many places are out of fuel
Thousands of cattle are starving for
lack of feed.
A dozen passenger trains are tied up
in snowdrifts in Kansas. Two of these
are transcontinental trains bearing
many passengers to California. These
trains do not carry dining cars and the
imprisoned passengers are fed by near
by farmers. Whole hams and great
quantities Of bacon and bread are
cooked by the farmers wives and sent
to the trains. Women passengers make
coffee for their companions in big wash
boilers over fires built on the ground.
These trains probably will be released
before morning.
The coldest weather. in years pre-
walls in this section tonight. AT
Kansas City it was Is degrees below

In Oklahoma and Indian Territory
the weather is the coldest since 1899,
and there is much suffering among the
poor, who were caught unprepared.
Cattle also are suffering. Great anxiety
is felt for the Indians, who are in no
condition to Withstand the storm, and
experts say that dozens Of them will
die as a result of the blizzard.
A negro froze to death at Fredonia.

cumbed to the cold near Lawton.
At Ottawa, Kans., where 1t is IL be-

drain upon dealers because of weeks
of intensely cold weather has depleted

of below zero is reported, work in
the oil and gas fields has been stopped
and railroad traffic interrupted.

LINCOLN
HIGH TRIBUTE
DR.. I. C. Meserve Finds Close
Comparison Between Loved
President and the Savior
A-MAN FIT FOR POWER
Was of the People, Honest
and One Worthy of Honor,
Says Divine in Sermon

Abraham Lincoln's birthday was OBJ
served in a number Of the churches of
the city yesterday. The Rev. DR.. /. G.
Meserve delivered beautiful tribute to
the martyred President at Plymouth
Congregational Church in the presence
Of q large asSemblage OF worshiperS.
DR.. Meserve said in part.
Lincoln was a man of the people He was
born of very humble parentage and in poverty.
He was in thorough sympathy with the COM
mon people,. understood them Wen, and be
Being cast in a large mold, he was GER
tain to be a popular leader, and a popular
leader he in the truest sense and largest
degree. His life story is as interesting as that
of any hero of history or romance He comes
very near being the ideal American citizen.
When he came upon the stage of action the
looms large in the Middle West, Stephen A.
Douglas by name. Douglas was the making of
Lincoln wholly without intention. Douglas
proposed the Kansas-Nebraska legislation
which opened the question of slavery again.
Lincoln became his opponent IN Illinois. put
States Senate over Lincoln in 1858. Their an
tagonism and debates made Lincoln known
over the land and he had 1Ol votes for Vice
President in the convention that nominated
Fremont for President.
There is a close comparison between Lincoln
and Jesus Christ Both sprang from the peo-
pie and had youthtime of labor. Both were
uneducated in the schools, but highly taught
by nature events. observation, hard work and
God Both were very unusual in their
relation to their times. To each it was given
to lead a people out Of bondage. Lincoln was
Gods man for the destruction of slavery in
this land Christ was Gods man. for the de-
struction of sin in the world. Both suffered
martyrdom One became at once a nation s
hero, more and more regarded time passes.
while the other is the master of mankind,
more loved and obeyed now than ever before.
Lincoln knew himself and his appointment to
so high and noble a work. Christ knew him
self and the boundless reach of his work for
men.
Mr.. Lincoln's shortest and best speech -
SO called by himself, was this: IT am not
much OF Judge of religion. but In my opinion
the religion that sets to rebel and fight
against their Government, because, as they
think that Government does not sufficiently
help some men to eat their bread In the sweat
of other mems faces, is not the sort of re-
1igfon upon which people can get to heaven
1t was in his last inaugural that he used
the words since often quoted, with NAL
ice toward none. with charity for ALL with
f1rmness in the right, as God gives us to see
the right, let us strive on to finish the work
We are In.
The Rev. r. Logan, pastor of Leb-
anon Presbyterian Church, delivered a
sterling eulogy on the late President in
his sermon yesterday. The church was
full and the sermon was replete with
historical reference to the days of slav-
cry and the remarkable and stirring in
cidents which led up to the Civil War.

FATAL BATTLE
WITH ROBBERS
Two Desperadoes Killed in
an Attempt to Hold Up a
Saloon in Colorado Town

INDEPENDENCE, Colo, Feb. Ii
Two masked men entered the Silver
Bell saloon tonight and attempted to
hold up the place. AS they ap-
preached the bar they ordered the
crowd within, numbering fifteen or
twenty, to hod up their hands and at
the same time commenced shooting.
Nearly all the men at the bar drew
revolvers and opened fire on the rob-
bers, with the result that both were
killed before they could get out of the
place. OF those in the saloon three
were wounded, Edward Fay fatally.
Henry Drach was shot in the leg
and groin and is In precarious con-
dition and Frank Edmundson, an ore
weigher, was shot through the hand
and abdomen and his condition is very
serious.
The robbers have been identified as
William Dugan and Frank Harris,
both miners.
Henry Drach and Edward Fay, the
owners of the saloon, who were shot
in defending their place against the
robbers, are in a critical condition at
the Sisters Hospital and the physi-
clans in attendance hold out no hopes
for their recovery.

STRIKERS TO BE EXPELLED.
VIII Be Driven From Warsaw Unless
They Return TO Work.

WARSAW, Feb. 12.-Baron Won Nol-
ken, chief of police of Warsaw, who
has just returned from a conference
with Governor General Tchertkoff Of
the province Of Warsaw, to-day gave
the following details regarding the
state of affairs in this district:
The strike continues in all of the big
factories. Tomorrow the manufactur-
ers are coming TO me TO discuss the sit
uation and on Tuesday I purpose see
ing some representatives of the strik-
ers.
Unless the strikers return to work
the police viii expeI all of those living
outside Of the Warsaw district If
they viii not work they must go home.
The men have no money and il seems
impossible that the strike can continue
much longer. Our task is one Of great
difficulty. We are not fighting an eco
nomic but a political movement hav-
ing its origin in St Petersburg
The worst troubles, however, are
probably over. Small disturbances may
break out here and there, but not on
such a scale as the earlier riots here. I"
Private telegrams received from
Dombrova say that all the factories
Wagon-loads Of ore are standing on
the railway tracks and the freight traf-
fic Of the Vistula line must be sus-
pended unless the wagons are re-

The coal supply is the most urgent
question in Warsaw since the Sosnov-
ice strike began. Governor General

from Emperor Nicholas permitting him
