REPUTATION vs.. Death
GIRL PREFERS TO DIE RATHER
THAN SUFFER DAMAGED
REPUTATION.

Lead, Feb. 27.-There have been
many conflicting stories told Of the
circumstances attending the death by
freezing of Miss Florence Helm
bauch. which occurred In a blizzard
twenty miles north OF Belle Fourche
several weeks ago. There has been
much discussion and speculation as
to the means which might have been
adopted by her and Walter Wilson,
her companion on that fatal trip, in
their efforts TO save their lives, but
one version of the afafir. coming
from Wilson, who survived the or
deal, shows that Miss H~einbaugh,
rather than permit a possible asper-
sion on her reputation. suffered
death.
According to the story Of Wilson,
who is now recovering from the eff
fects of his experience in the Camp
Crook hospital. he had on his load a
camp bed. which when the situation
appeared TO be desperate. he pro-
posed making up on the ground in
the partial shelter Of the wagon. II
was his suggestion that they both
protect themselves under the bed
clothes, a plan that would doubtless
have resulted in saving his compan-
ions life. But Miss Heinbaugh pro-
tested, declaring that that course
might result in a reflection on her
reputation and she insisted on them
continuing their efforts to reach a
place of shelter.
In the binding storm and with a
temperature of 80 below zero, they
were forcing their way on foot, in a
direction which they believed would
bring them TO her fathers home.
They led the four houses, using them
as "A ~windbreak. They labored on in
this way through most of the night,
Wilson in the lead, but finally he
discovered that Miss Heinbaugh had
dropped behind. He went back and
found her exhausted on the ground.
She insisted that he leave here there
and continue on in search of help.
When daylight came, he found him
self within a short distance of Nick
Stetter's sheep wagon. He secured
aid and returning. they found Miss
Heinbaugh lying where Wilson had
left her. but life was extinct.

RECORD Price
SIoIN CITY MARKET REACHES
SI3.I0 FOR HOGS.

Sioux City, Feb. 2S.-All former
price records on the local hog mar
ket were shattered yesterday when
buyers paid $13.10 per 100 pounds
for top hogs. This price is 20 cents
above the top Of the previous day
and stands as the highest price ever
paid for live pork on the Sioux City
market. Since the first of the year,
hog prices have advanced over SO per
hundred weight. and the new record
top yesterday came as th2 result OF a
series of sharp gains made by the
selling side during the past two
months. Few are yenturing a pre-
diction as to how high hogs will sell
before a drop comes, but forecasts
for S14 before summer have been
made.
An unprecedented demand for
pork products is the underlying
cause of the sensational squirt made
by live pork prices. Shippers have
liberal orders on hand daily and
there is keen competition between
outside buyers and local packers for
the fresh receipts, so that practically
every session is a snappy one and
.clearanees are prompt.
