FREEZES FEET
Abraham Hartman Wan
ders on Hills for Week
Freezes Both Feet.

Samuel Fytes came in Friday
night from the ranch of Robert
Middlewood, 30 miles west of here
to obtain help for Abraham Hart
man, an old German prospector,
sc years of age. who had been
wandering on the hogbacks be-
tween Saratoga and Rawlins for a
week without food orsEelter, other
than a sagebrush fire at night.
The old man left Rawlins, Mon
day, the 18th inst, with % cents
worth of provisions and > cents
worth of matches, bound for Sara
toga, and expected to be out only
one night. He got bewildered
and wandered around until the
following Sunday, when he APP
peared at the Middlewood ranch,
nearly famished, and where they
soon discovered the miserable
plight the poor man was in.
They took care of him until it be-
came certain that he would have
to have medical aid, when Mr..
Fytes was dispatched to this
place. The county authorities at
Rawlins were communicated with
when an ambulance was sent out
from that place and the man was
sent to the Wyoming General
Hospital at Rock Springs. 1t is
feared that he will loose both feet,
as all his toes and the bottom clear
around both feet. were frozen
stiff.
Later-Word was received here
yesterday morning that Rawllns
parties had tried for three days to
reach the Middlewood ranch from
that place, but were unable to do
SO on account of the snow. Geo.
w. Sisson left here early yester-
day morning with a rig for the
Middlewocd ri,nch, and Hartman
will be brought out and taken to
the railroad at Walcott.

Rabbits are Scarce.

Stockmen from the range report
an unusual scarcity of jack rabbits
this winter. A year ago they
were scattered over the range in
enormous numbers but it seems
that some sort of a disease has al
most eradicated them.
This, in the minds of some men
accounts for the exceeding bold
ness of coyotes and wolves, which
have caused considerable annoy
ance to keepers of hocks and
herds. According to some men
who observed this matter for sew
eral years the present condition is
in evidence about every seven or
eight years. The rabbits thrive
and grow in numbers until they
seem to be numberless, and then
they suddenly disappear as though
an epidemic of some disease had
swept them out of existence

Dramatic Club.

The Encampment Dramatic
Club will arrive here Saturday and
give an entertainment entitled
"Uncle Obadiah" in Jensen hall
in the evening. The proceeds of
the evening, after the expenses
have been paid will be divided,
one half going to the Dramatic
Club and the remainder to the
public school of this place. AS
this is a most laughable comedy
and is well played It is to be hoped
that everybody will turn out to
give the club a rousing welcome.

March w Gather.

All the weather prophets are
predicting an unusually hard
March and it is possible that we
may have a much severer month
than March usually is. For that
reaso it will not be at all out of
place for everyone to make prep
aration for a very severe storm
about the 10th or 18th. 1t may
not come, but if it does not there
will be no harm done by being
prepared for it. Every indication
points to a regular old stem-wind-
er, one that will cause much suf-
fering and death among stock of
every kind that is not well pro-
tected, as well as among the people
themselves. Better prepare for it
by laying in al extra supply of
fuel and provisions and also see
ing to it that you have plenty of
hay and grain for your stock, as
well as shelter against driving
storms and freezing weather.

Farmers Institute.

The last legislature passed an
act appropriating $1,000 for tie
purpose of holding Farmers In
stitutes in the state. These In
ststutes are to be held under the
auspices of the Agricultural De-
partment of Wyoming University,
subject to the direction Of the
trustees of that institution. The
Sun has been informed that a
Farmers Institute can be had in
this valley this coming spring or
summer if a hall can be secured,
free of charge, in which to hold it.
Saratoga people should make haste
to secure a session of the institute,
as it can be done if they will make
up the sum required to pay for
the hall rent. The amount will
be small and will no doubt be
gladly made up by the citizens Of
this place.

Still another party will be in
charge of F. C. Emerson of this
place, who has been a member of
the engineering corps that ran the
lines for the Saratoga e. Encamp-
ment road, This last party will
map out irrigation systems and
