The Cold Year 1885.

One of the most remarkable sto-
ries of sudden cold weather is to be
found in famous biography of Abra-
ham Lincoln. The year 1886 was
long known as 1.-The year of sudden
change" At noon on December 20
of that year, after warm, rainy
morning, the temperature suddenly
fell 40 degrees. A man riding into
Springfield for marriage license
found the raindrops dripping from
the bride and beard changed "in a
second" into jingling icicles. Geese
and chickens were caught by their
feet and wings and frozen to the wet
ground. A drove of one thousand
hogs being driven to St. Louis rushed
together for warmth and formed a
huge pile. Those inside smothered,
while those outside froze, and the
ghastly pyramid remained on the
prairies for months. Men caught on
the prairie killed their horses, dis
emboweled them and crept into the
cavity of their bodies to escape the
murderous blizzard.

EXTRADITION FOR MRS. REAMS.
Governor Blease Wires Officers to
Hold Spartanburg Woman.

Spartanburg, April 16.-FolloW-
ing a telegram received here last
night stating that Mrs. Grace Reams,
wife of DR.. Jefferson w. Reams, OF
Spartanburg, had been arrested IN San
Francisco after a search of nearly
two years, word came to-day that she
was seeking her release through ma
beas corpus proceedings.
At the request of Cecil c. Wyche'
ATTORNEY for DR.. Reams, Governor
Blease telegraphed to the San Fran
cisco authorities to hold Mrs. Reams
until a formal demand could be made
for her extradition. Warrants were
issued here on June IL, 1912, charg-
ing Mrs Reams and J. Rogers Nc
Caslin, the insurance agent. with
whom she is alleged to have eloped,
with adultery.
Mrs. Reams's whereabouts were
discovered by w. G. Cash, Spartan
burg policeman, who was employed
in the case. He obtained the neces-
sary clues through somebody here
whose identity is concealed, to whom
Mrs. Reams was writing.
She was living in San Francisco as
Mrs. jamie B. Rogers, and was arrest
ed at the postofice when she went to
get her mail.
Before her marriage Mrs. Reams
was Miss Grace Harmon, of Prosperi-
ty, S. G.. She is said to own property
there valued at $4,000, and it is
claimed took $4,000 cash with her
when she fled. She is 20 years old
and beautiful. McCaslin is 27 years
old, and from Greenwood.
Mr.. Wyche to-day summoned DR..
Reams to Spartanburg from Winston
Salem, where he is now living. He
said Reams probably would go to
San Francisco. The principal object
of DR.. Reams's long search has been
to recover his six-year-old son, Or
lando.
Attorney Wyche received tele-
gram tonight from D. n. White,
chief of police at San Francisco, stat
ing that Rogers McCaslan was sup
posed to be in Southern California
and that an effort was being made to
locate him. The Reams case was
continued until tomorrow, the chief
said, and expressed the opinion that
he would be able to detain Mrs.
Reams.

Honeymoon Hike Across Continent.

Tramping on their way from Otta-
wa. Canada, to San Francisco, on
their honeymoon, Mr., and Mrs. John
D. Williams have arrived in Philadel-
phia. They will remain here for
several weeks and will resume their
Journey when conditions of the Mid
die West are again restored to their
normal state.
Williams has quite reputation as
a long-distance walker. His home
formerly was in Newark, n. j., and
when he returned there about six
months ago he found that his mother
had gone to Ottawa. He Joined her
there and met the girl who later be-
came his wife. They decided to take
the long walk as their honeymoon.
They pay their expenses by giving
lectures and selling postcards.
Williams carries a small diary, and
each day ne has the postmaster CT the
village or city in which he happens to
be stamp the section devoted to that
day with the official postoffice stamp,
thus certifying his trip. This is one
of the several means of establishing
the genuineness of his long tramp.
