The Miller school got out Of the
blizzard nicely. A rope was stretch
ed from Rorick's corner to the school

piloted the teachers and scholars
safely home, except a few who were
taken to the Vanderbilt. At st.
Lawrence the teacher kept the bell
ringing and thus enabled the parents

ANNIVERSARY OF
BLIZZARD OF 'SS
Twenty-Five Years Ago Wednes-
day Fatal Day For
Northwe st
From Press of Jan. 10, 1881

Nai no VI ct'" 49, AoSS'
Thursday morning, Jan. 18th, was
cloudy and calm. Shortly after 9
O'Clock the stratus condition of the
clouds became very heavy. Sud-
denly the wind veered from the east
to the north and northwest, The
wind increased with great velocity
and the unhappy wayfarer found
himself enveloped in a binding,
driving, shrieking fog Of frozen
mist. After the fury of the storm
had broken loose, it was simply and
utterly futile for one to guess as to
the points of the compass. A driver
could not even see his team.
Terror was depicted on the cOun-
tenances of all those who were
separated from those they loved.
School children became panic-strick-
en- and parents frantic for their
safety. Hardly an individual who
dared go any distance out Of doors
but failed to experience the fact
that they knew nothing of direction
in a blizzard. The GROWING calam-
ity of the storm is that many who
ventured forth in it never returned.
The total death list in the entire
country is about IT'S, in Dakota 80,
and in Hand county 7.

James and John Wright. living on
the eastern line of the corporation
started Thursday to go to the school
house. After wandering around for
hours. they reached Ora Fulton's
house, about two hundred yards
from their own. Here they conclud-
ed that they had better try to get
back home, and after a tussle of
several hours, and just as they were
abont to give up, they reached r. S.
Willett's house, where they staid
all night.

Deputy Sheriff Attempts to
Serve Jury Notice on Man
Who Died a Year Ago.

Friends OF Under Sheriff Dick
Lewis are enjoying a laugh at his ex-
pense as the result of a prolonged eff
fort On his part last week to serve a
jury summons on Il man that had
been dead for more than a year. The
names of the jurymen to serve dur
ing the next term of court We're
handed to Lewis some ten days ago.
He served all OF them with the excep-
ton of one for Thomas Grove. All
efforts to locate Grove were fruitless,
but the officer kept on looking for
him. Friday night Lewis continued
the search ana finally found out that
Grove committed suicide about a
year ago and that his present earthly
residence is in a cemetery east of
town. Lewis painfully took the sum
mons back to the court house yester-
day with the request that hereafter
the court authorities do not draw
dead mems on the jury lists.

New York. March 5.-The wavering
price movement in today's stock mar
ket perfected the lack of conviction
over the speculative outlook. The
news from Philadelphia was partly
responsible for this. The extent of the
response to the call for a general
strike there. in itself, threatened an
amount of disturbance of profitable
activities in company shares. The
bearing of the situation. moreover. on
the general subject of abor adjust
ment as presented by the numerous de-
mands upon the railroads now under
consideration was deemed important
and calculated to arouse anxiety.
There was a notable absence of the
attempts which were made at the end
of last week to arouse apprehension
over a possible decision to be handed
down on that day by the supreme
court in the American Tobacco case.
The rise in American Tobacco shares
in the outside market this week has
impressed speculative sentiment on
his subject more than the more d.
rect contemplation of the government
suit against the movement. The
movement in the Tobacco shares, in
fact, was made an important consider
alton in the support of the general
stock market.
The support accorded stocks associ-
