FARMER HAS THRILLING ADVEN
TURE IN THE MISSOURI
RIVER.

Springfield, March IA. Ross
Crossley, a resident of the Nebraska
side of the Missouri river opposite
Bon Homme county, had a thrilling
adventure and a narrow escape from
death by drowning in the Missouri
river when his horses and wagon
plunged through the ice, throwing
him into the water. He was return
ing to his home in Nebraska from a
trip to Bon Homme county when the
Ice gave way. Crossley made a leap
for life as he felt the wagon sinking
beneath him but could not reach firm
ice. He succeeded, however, in gain
ing an arm hold on the edge of the
broken Ice and by almost superhu-
man efforts prevented himself being
carried under the ice by the swift
current. How he ever did it he does
not know. but he finally managed to
climb upon the ice. His horses and
wagon were carried away.

ON The TUSCANIA
ALLEN AHLERS, OF ABERDEEN,
TELLS OF HIS EXPER.
FENCES.

Aberdeen. March 15.-Mrs. F. l..
Christensen. an Aberdeen resident,
has just received a letter from her
brother, Allen Alters, a former stu
dent at the Northern Normal and In
dustrial school at Aberdeen, who was
aboard the Tuscania when it was
sunk by a submarine off the Irish
coast.
Mr.. Ahlers took a course in avia-
ton in Texas and was transferred to
Long Island to finish the course, get
ting a grade of 81, second highest of
any member of his class, upon grad
uating.
Young Ahlers had been active in
baseball, basketball and other ath-
letic activities at the normal, and in
the aviation field studied mechanics
as well as the art of flying and nan
euvering an airplane. For this rea-
son his services were in demand for
the aviation corps as soon as he fin
ished on Long Island, and he was
sent to Europe on the Tuscania.
Writing of his experiences on the
Tuscania and after his arrival in
England, Mr.. Ahlers says:
Have finally reached England and
we are In an American rest camp
here. Our bunch happened to be on
the Tuscania, which vas ~torpedoed
off the Irish coast. and we were land
ed in Ireland. We travelled across
Ireland by train from one end to the
other and 1t certainly is the prettiest
place l ever hope to see. We were
surely treated royalty there by every
one. There were SO OF us together,
all from our squadron, and we were
escorted through the cities where We
changed cars by bands and were met
at stations by people with cigarets
and lunches. We stayed a couple of
days at two different English army
posts and were given what extra
clothes we needed. am wearing a
British coat, overcoat, hat and deg
gings, and some of the fellows have
complete English uniforms. We lost
all our equipment except what we
had on or in our pockets.
We were hit at 5:45 p. m. | got
out of it without even getting my feet
wet. l got on a destroyer which pull
ed up alongside of us after they had
bagged the sub. / could have gotten
in a lifeboat, but thought ! would
rather take my chances on the ship
because she was not sinking fast, and
I am glad l did nov because the fell
lows in the lifeboats had a pretty
tough time, and some of our fellows
who pulled in yesterday and who
were in the boat l had been assigned
to-, said they had been wrecked or
the shores of Scotland and several OF
the fellows were killed when they hit
the rocks.
l was on the Tuscania two and q
half hours before / got on the de.
stroyer, We lost IT of our squad out
of 154, but a couple of those missing
there may still turn up, although
most are accounted for.
We are in a dandy camp here. We
are living in barracks, and are being
fed as well as l expected, so have nc
reason to complain. and am feeling
fine and having a good time. We
have two dandy Y. M. C. A. huts
here, and am in one now. We re-
ceived new toilet articles today from
the Red Cross. The weather is like
spring here. and everything is green
