FROzE SOLID DURING NIGHT
Rushing Mountain Torrent silenced
In Few Hours by the In
tense Cold.

Running water is usually the last
thing to freeze solid and when it does
so, the cold must be extreme. ].
Claude White, in the Wide World
Magazine, gives the following descrip-
ton of this very rare occurrence
the freezing of mountain torrent In
single night
The phenomenon was one that I
have never before experienced-a run
ming river frozen solid in a night!
When we arrived the waters OF this
stream, tumbling over the great boul-
ders and rushing through the tortuous
channels, made deafening roar
Gradually. but almost perceptibly, the
tumult decreased, while, worn out
after hard day, we fell asleep.
A few hours later. when we awoke.
deathly silence prevailed, and on
looking out, to my intense surprise, I
found that the rushing torrent of the
previous night had been transformed
into a solid mass of ice! In this re-
gion of extreme temperatures | had
on other occasions seen torrents froz.
en-, but never under such startling
conditions. On looking round. we
found that everything we possessed
was also frozen solid, including our
saddle Of mutton, which was merely
block of ice. We were ravenous.
but we got no satisfaction from gnaw-
at Jumps of rock which ought to have
been succulent joint. and so, despite
selves with a little tea--to make
which we melted ice and a few bis
cults.

Box Discovered in Wash Near New River Discloses cruesome
 Mystery.

A skeleton was found in box across the river from Calexico on Tuesday in @ big wash, just this side of Gant's house. The box is 29 inches by IS inches, and bears the label Maisa Dairy O., Phoenix Ariz. and addressed to Varney Bros, Cal exico. Varney Bros. say that they have not received goods from this firm for over three years. The box shows that it has been left indoors until very recently, as it is not wealth cred any The skeleton is that of a small man who has evidently been dead several years. The man was thirty-five or forty years old. No clothing except some pieces of stock ing and part of a ladies silk waist which looks as if it had blood on it were found
 The pelvis show that it was the skeleton of man. There were two teeth in the upper jaw and three in the lower. Two of the teeth in the lower jaw had been filled. The box was almost filled with silt.
 The box, skeleton and all are al Cranes livery stable. The skeleton looks as if it had been taken apart before it had been placed in the box

AN ACCIDENT
Two Doctors, Brooks and Jackson,
Figured in An Accident on the
Cliffs of Council Bluffs

DR.. Brooks visited his old and es-
teemed friend Dr. jackson at the lat
ter's home in Council Bluffs Monday

the city behind ''Opie Reid !" Now
Opie is q fine blooded colt that DR.
Brooks sold to DR.. Jackson some
time ago after being "city broke"
When these two physics met OF course
Opie was called into action and up
the big bluffs the doctors went and
all was we'll. But returning was ano-
ther question for whenspart way down

buggy on to the horse. He tried to
get ahead of 1t but it kept humping
him until he finally turned and upset
the buggy throwing them both out.
DIR. Brooks arose with broken arm
to find DR.. Jackson senseless under
the buggy He managed to drag him
out and when DR.. Jackson came to
himself DR.. Brooks laid down to avoid
fainting, which however he did any.

took Dr. Brooks to the hospital DR.
Jackson's injuries were only bruises
but he is very sore and stiff. The es-
cape from serious injury can hardly be
accounted for.

Gone To Oklahoma For His Health

Prof. and Mrs. d. P. Repass left
Tuesday for Grimes, Oklahoma where
it is hoped Mr.. Repass's health will
be benefited. Mrs. Repass will return
soon providing his condition will per-
nit. Their son, Harry who has been
SO faithful through his fathers illness
and carried on his school work so
successfully, accompanied them and
will remain with his father and care
for him. A large number Ct friends
and students were at the depot to bid
the professor farewell. 1T was sgd
parting. Prof; Repass has been in the
schools here for many years and had
endeared himself to the hearts of the
people. He was good citizen with
many friends and few enemies, which
is saying much for one who has fol-
lowed teaching as long as he has. In
appreciation of his good service and a
token of respect, many friends made
up purse of over 800. and presented
it on the evening previous to his de-
parture. We sincerely hope he may
be benefited by the change and uiti-
mately receive permanent relief
