| a temporary mail service was asked
for by special carrier between Hill
City and WaKeeney and bid of
80 IS for round trip, one day over and
one day back, was sent in. A teie-

Ross Mort and Art Inflow, who
went to Wa-Keeney last week to
catch a main line train for Hutchin-
son to attend the Democratic state
convention, had very pleasant three
days stay in Wa-Keeney, returning
| Friday. They left Wa-Keeney about
ten O'Clock in the morning and got
home about 1.30 that night. In many
places they hauled their sleigh over
the drifts themselves, the horses
fioundering through the snow after
them.-Hill City New Era.
At Smith Center, Kansas, on Sat
urday, while 500 persons watched, p
year-Old Harry Agnew was buried un-
| der an. avalanche of snow thrown
from the Rock Island rotary pillow as
worked through a big drift at that
point. He was missed by his mother
at supper time and a searching party
found his lifeless body under two
feet of snow at s o'clock. He was
| lying face downward and apparently
had not made a struggle after being
struck by the snow. Other venture
some youths were buried but were
seen by spectators and rescued with
out serious injury. Norton Courier.
Wa-Keeney for bushels of it.
1t was good luck that three cars of
hay were marooned here just at the
beginning of the snow blockade; a
slight shyness on sugar and a short
age on coal and yet nobody suffered
for sweetness and warmth. Good
luck and foresight landed an abun-
dant supply of corn and the town is
safe on butchers stock for four
months to come. Other towns had
to call on their neighbors for bread
stutfs but Wa-Keeney has flour to
burn, In some other towns up and
down the road even good drinking
water and light have been good and
plentiful every day in the week with
out a flicker, thanks to good sense
and good management three years
| ago. The hose carts were showed in
and the fire plugs drifted under fol
three weeks but no fires broke out
thanks to the good luck of the pre-
sent. Let everybody feel grateful
and get ready for the bumpingest
crop of bumper bumps the country
has ever seen.
