PLAY TIE GAME.
Independent A. c. and Middletown T
 A. B. in Fast Contest.

The Independent A. C. of this city journeyed to Middletown yesterday and met the fast Middletown T. A. B. team at Westfield Park and played a hard l3-inning game, 11-11. O'Conner and Butt were the opposing pitchers and both pitched good ball. but poor sup port at times resulted in the large score. The local boys took a big lead at the getaway but the Middletown boys evened the score in the fifth, when Doherty landed on one of O'Conner's S twisters for home run with the bases full, over the left field fence. From this point until the finish the game was in- teresting, each side going out in 1-2-3 order and when Umpire Heenan called the game on account of darkness the crowd were well satisfied with the out come Stebbins and Kelly played a steady game for Middletown while Bunny Ford, Banjo Kennedy and But Ter excelled for the local boys.

The Snow People.
lOriginal.1

IOriginal1
A blizzard on the plains-I have
seen one; never wish to see another.
All day that terrible whirl of snow. If
1t had ceased occasionally to give the
brain a rest, it would not have been
so hard to bear, but it never ceased.
We saw only ourselves; there was
nothing else to see but the boundless
plain, and that was shut from our
vision by the snow. We were prepared
for the storm, having wagons, tents
and the wherewithal to make hot cof
fee, and should have considered our
selves well off. We would have been
had It not been for that terrible, never
ceasing whirl.
The next morning the storm abated,
and we moved on. About noon we
came upon a sight to freeze the mar
row in our bones-six heaps Of snow,
body underneath each, the remains
of a campfire in the center. We
brushed the snow from the heaps and
uncovered five men and woman.
The woman was wrapped in all the
blankets that the party had possessed.
I put a pocket mirror to the mouth Of
each person, and the woman alone re-
sponded, showing a faint film on the
glass. We poured whisky down her
throat and chafed her. She opened
her eyes and In a short time could
speak to US, but we waited till the
next day for her story:
1--WE had horses and a wagon. !
don't know where the horses are now.
When we saw the storm coming we
thought the first thing to do was to
get firewood, but since there was none
we broke up the wagon.
81 don't remember much Of what hap
pened. All 1 know is that now and
again my husband came to me with a
blanket. 1 closed my eyes to shut out
the whiriing snow that was making
my brain sick, but they wouldn't let
me keep them closed. Tney Kept snaA-
ing me to keep me awake. l saw
them putting on the fire the pieces OF
the wagon, but they used them spar
ingly.
presently I saw flock Of white
wolves circling around us, and It seem
ed that the men were keeping up the
FIRE to prevent their closing In and de-
vouring us. Occasionally one of the
men would seize q firebrand and hurl
II at a wolf. They were circling, al
ways circling, to tire our brains.
closed my eyes again, and when !
opened them the wolves were gone,
but something far more terrible had
taken their places. Snow people were
whirling where the wolves had whirl-
ed. Oh, how cold they looked ~ OF
their dreadful eyes! They instead of
the wolves were now trying to tire u.s.
Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1908-04-22

"Every now and again one of the
snow people would try to seize one
of our men, but he would take up a
firebrand, and that was enough. The
snow man would withdraw. / saw
one of our men stagger away from the
fire. A snow woman took him and
pressed her lips tight to his. Then
she opened her arms, and he fell frozen
stiff.
after that the snow people circled
nearer. I saw our men come and stand
around me. You may think it was to
protect me from the wind and the
drift. No; it was to keep off the snow
people. / was sitting by the fire, so
that the men inclosed both me and the
fire. / fancied the snow people want
ed me, for they were all looking at
me out Of their icy eyes and reckoning
to me. There were four of our men
around me, and each seized a firebrand
and advanced a few PAGES back to
back. The snow people could not
stand the heat Of the brands and fed
with shrek.
$50 wild, so weird, so terrible, was
the shrek that l closed my eyes and
put my hands to my ears. When !
looked again the men had lowered the
brands, and the snow people were
whirling more frantic than ever.
"a horrible old snow bag beckoned
to one of the men, leering at him. he
went toward her. She seized him, and
saw him whirled off up into the sky.
Another woman sang beautiful song
no such heavenly melody have ever
heard-fixing her eyes on one Of the
men who were left. He, too. sue
cumbed and went toward her. She
folded him In an embrace, and saw
that he had been frozen. Another OF
our men went short distance from
the fire to bring some spokes to burn
A snow man seized him, touched his
heart with his icy finger, and he fell
IKE the rest, without bending joint.
From this time the snow people seem
ed changed. They were no longer hor
rible. They were beautiful. The mems
apparel seemed to glisten like icicles ir
the sun; the women's dresses trailed
far behind them, each myriad OF
snowf1akes. / saw now only one of oul
men. He came to me and threw Q
blanket over me. He was my husband
Then he stopped and kissed me. saw
him soon after, standing by the fire
which was now nearly out. The snow
people were watching II, and knew
that when the last ember died the enc
would come. Nearer they came till
could feel their breaths on my face
though It seemed to me that had beef
in fever and they were cooling me
Then / saw them gather around my
husband, and he fell into their arms.
"This is all / remember till / fel
something warm In my throat and
opening my eyes, saw you peopl
standing over me-"
