him from freezing to death.
Long Time for Short Walk.
Yesterday morning early, digging his
way from his snowy cave, he started
to walk to the ranch. He was closer
to his own home than to Kings, but
an almost insurmountable mountain of
snow lay before him. and he went in
the opposite direction. Mr.. TRADING
estimates that he was about five miles
from the King ranch, but it took him
until 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon to
reach shelter at that place, from
where he telephoned to the city.
Lack of Communication.
There is no telephone line from
Wayside, and it could not be known
here whether Hill had succeeded in
working his way through or whether
he and the team are both lost in the
snow. A four-horse team was SEM
from here this morning, with the in
tention of drawing the TRADING wagon
from the drift and making way to
Wayside, where the mystery surround
ing the driver will be u%nraveled if
possible.
Trabing Almost All In.
Mr.. Trabing was almost exhausted
when he reached the King ranch. He
told the Office here that he does not
know how he came through the night,
and is still wondering. The wagon
was right side up when he left it, but
he did not know what had become of
the horses. He turned them loose
with the harness on.

Leslie, Wyo., Oct. 27.-Tuesdays
and Fridays are mail days at LESLIE,
the bustling little mining camp sixteen
miles east of Laramie. When last
Tuesday morning came all prophesied
that, owing to the snow. no one could
get to Laramie with the mail, but one
young man, Vie McBeth, volunteered
to try to make the trip on horseback.
He had proceeded no more than a mile
When he found it impossible to go far

in places was higher han the horses

Tried 1t on Snowshoes.
He returned to camp with his horse
exhausted, and he and some of his
friends Immediately set to work to
make two pairs of snowshoes, saying
that Wednesday would see the mail
go to Laramie. When Wednesday
morning came Mr.. McBeth, accompa-
MED by Johnny O'Reilly, started again
with the mail. this time on snowshoes.
Each was full of hope and each had
a piece of cheese in his pocket.
Caught in the Storm.
Somehow the snowshoes did not
work well, of the wild west wind
which they had to face was in league
with the snow to put a damper on
their hopes. for late in the evening
they were but five or six miles from
Leslie and found 1t impossible to go
farther or to return to camp.
Spent Night in Ravine.
To make a long story short. they
camped tor the night in a ravine, being
fortunate enough to find some wood to
start a camp fire. Here they spent the
night listening to the roaring of the
wind, the kissing of the snow and the
wild shrek of the coyote. When
morning came, they turned their weary
faces toward Leslie, arriving there
about 10 O'Clock in the morning, sadder
but wiser young men. Thursday at s
p. m. the mail arrived from Laramie,
being brought out by r. H. Haygood
and Harry FUR.
