a hand on her bridle-rein-and she
pulled Jim in down the winding hills
to save him for the long fiat. When
they struck it they had but four miles
to go.
Across the fiat the wind drove in
fury. Reflection, thought and reason
were beginning to leave her. She was
crying to herself quietly as she used
to cry when she lost herself, a mere
child, riding among the hills. She
was praying meaningless words. Snow
purred softly on her cheeks. The cold
was soothing her senses. Unable at
last to keep her seat on the horse.
she stopped him, slipped stiffly to the
ground, and, struggling through the
wind as she held fast to the bride and
the horn, half walked and half ran to
start the blood through her benumbed
veins She struggled until she could
drag her mired feet no farther and
tried to draw herself back into the
saddle. 1t was almost beyond her.
She sobbed and screamed at her help.
lessness. At last she managed to
climb founderingly back into her seat,
and, bending her stiffened arms to
| Jim's neck, she moaned and cried to
| him. When again she could hold her
seat no longer, she fell to the horses
side, dragged herself along in the
frozen slush, and, screaming with the
pain of her freezing hands, drew her.
self up into the saddle.
She knew that she dare not venture
this again--that if she did so she
could never remount. She felt now
that she should never live to reach
Medicine Bend. She rode on and on
and on-would 1t never end? Then
came sound like the beating of great
drums in her ears. 1t was the crash
of Jim's hoofs on the river bridge,
and she was in Medicine Bend.
A horse, galloping low and heavily,
slued through the snow from Fort
street into Boney, and, where it had
so often stopped before, dashed up on
the sidewalk in front of the little
shop. The shock was too much for its
unconscious rider, and, shot headlong
from her saddle, Dicksie was flung
bruised and senseless against Mari
on's door.

Dicksie,s Ride.

When Lance Dunning entered the

President Bacon, of the Paris base
bail club, has received the signed
contract of Goodman for this season.

Louis Crutcher, the good pitcher
with the~Frankfort team last. season,
has been asked for terms from the In
dianapolis team of the American Asse-
citation. So it looks as if Crutcher
will not wear a Frankfort uniform the
coming season.
We understand that Ed. McKarnen,
who played second base for the Ports
mouth, o., team last season has been
selected for the manager of the Paris
team. The contract has been forward

not as yet-beSo returned by McKarnen.
He is highly recommended.
Frankfort. it is said, will loose two
of their best players. Geo. Yantz has
signed to play with the San Atomic
team in the Texas State League. He
was considered one of the best catch
ers in the league last season. So tar
Lee Angemier, considered by many
to be the best all-round man in the
Blue Grass last season, has not signed
the contract which has been sent him
by the Frankfort management An
gemier is said to be dissatisfied with
the salary offered.

Loaded Cigar Does Damage.

Everett Rector. of near Riddles
Mills. is confined to his room with
painful injuries about the eyes and
face caused by the explosion of load
ed cigar. Powder from a loaded shell

yesterday morning it turned into sleet
and snow and continued throughout
the day. when night arrived there was
about four inches of snow upon the

Largest Crop on Record.

Big preparations are being made for
the tobacco crop of 1910. ia Nicholas
county. and it now bids fair to excel
in acreage the 1909 crop. which was
the largest in the history of Nicholas
county From some sections it is re
ported that there is a disposition among
some of the poolers of former years
not to pool the 1910 crop until the inde-
pendents sign up their crops.
