Mrs. Edward Fallon died at her
home in this city Tuesday morning
at about nine o'clock, aged seventy
two years. She had been in feeble
health for several years, principally
as the result of old age. For sew
eral weeks she had been unable to
leave her bed, but kept gradually
growing weaker until she sank
away.
Isabella Carswell was born in
Canada where she grew to woman
hood. She was married to MI.
Edward Fallon fifty-one years ago
on the 26th day of last January.
She came with her husband to
Scotland in the fall of 1880, and
with the exception of one year
spent in Chicago this has since
been their home. Six children
we're born to them, two of whom
died in infancy, and four are still
living-Thomas, who when last
heard from was in Cripple Greek,
Colo, Duncan of Chicago, Edward
of Wichita, Kans., and Mrs. W. A.
Cobb of Scotland.
For many years she had been a
member of the Presbyterian church
and her life was one of devotion to
her Savior and of constant service
to her husband and children. She
possessed a kind and loving dis
position, always looking upon the
bright side of life, and was ready
with a smile and a kind word for
everyone she met. The bereaved
husband and children have the
sympathy Of all in this community
where for twenty nine years she
had lived a life above reproach.
Funeral services will be conducted
at the house this afternoon and the
remains buried in Rose Hill ceme-
terry.

William j. Bardwell died at the
home of his father, w. e. Bardwell,
in this city last Saturday afternoon
OF tuberculosis resulting from pneu-
monia. He was born in Scotland,
January 30, 1854, being at the time
of his death % years and Z days
old. About six years ago he took
charge of his fathers farm near
Olivet which he worked for four
! years. He then went to Penning-
ton county where he located on a
homestead.
A little over a year ago he had a
severe attack of pneumonia from
which he never fully recovered.
He was possessed ofa cheerful dis
position and inspired with the
hopes and ambitions of youth he
made a strong fight to overcome
the disease. He disposed of lis
property in Pennington county and
several months ago, accompanied
by his young wife whom he mar
ried on the claim and his infant
son, he returned to Scotland and
again moved to his fathers farm
near Olivet which lie had rented.
In spite of his failing health he
kept at bis work until about two
weeks before his death when he
came to the home of his parents to
receive medical treatment. On
Thursday of last week he was taken
with commissions and sank into a
comatose state from which he never
recovered.
Funeral services were held at the
Presbyterian church Monday after
noon, conducted by Rev. A. D.
Collins, after which the remains
were escorted to the grave by the
Odd Fellows and Modern Wood
men, where the last rites we're per-
formed by the Odd Fellows. The
casket was covered with a mantle
of flowers, among them being en-
blems Of the two orders to which
he belonged.
He is survived by q wife and lit
tie son, father and mother, two
brothers and three sisters, and to
them will be extended the sympa-
thy of a large circle of friends who
had known him from childhood
and admired him for his gentle
manly, kind hearted and generous
disposition.

STORM SWEPT.

The worst snow storm that has
visited this section since the IA
nous blizzard of 1888 struck this
place about four o'clock Monday
afternoon. The wind had been
blowing from the northeast for
tw~enty-four hours, and about four
O'Clock the snow commenced fall
ing and within four hours had COW
cred the ground to a depth of a
loot. 1t continued to snow, though
with less severity, for twenty-four
hours, but in its present condition
1t would be impossible to strike an
average and tell It's depth on the
ground. The wind shifted to the
northwest, and all day Tuesday it
blew a gale, hurting the loose snow
into the air and leaving it in the
form of hills, valleys and moun-
talns. The temperature was not
hl SOS
severely cold and the storm was
not severe enough to make it dan
gerous to be out, but all train SER
wee vas blocked and business was
practically suspended all day Tues
day. Wednesday morning dawned
clear and warm, but the streets
Were a sight to behold. Drifts were
IN places ten feet deep and it was
two or three hours before paths
could be shoveled along the side
walks and entrance made to some
OF the business houses. All day
Wednesday the shovel brigade was
busy and by night tracks had been
made through the principal streets,
but it will require another day to
open the traffic from the outside.
"A snow pillow was started this
way from Sioux City Wednesday
morning and made its way to Scot
land junction without difficulty,
but from the junction to the depot,
q distance of one mile, with deep
cuts nearly all the way, the track
was covered In places Is to 90 feet
deep. All Of the afternoon anda all
night the pillow worked, burying
itself In the drifts, and then for two
or three: hours shovelers would be
busy digging il out, when another
plunge would be made. About one
o'clock this morning another EIow
got here from Mitchell and worked
from this end. About ten o'clock
Today the Last lunge was made and
the way was cleared. On The I a.
10 i pillow is working this way from
Marion but will probably not get
through today. Three train crews
are stalled DIT Running Water with
