ABL1ZZABD. - A TRAGEDY OFt A PRAIRIE WISTEB , Susan walked slowly along behind the prairie schooner , driving the small h > rd of cattle belonging to her broth er-in-law. The roads were a little mnddy in some places , there had been a rain the ni hi before , bat she vrai tired of riding in the wagon and walking rested her. Sne formed a part of the procession going west. It waa a long one , scattered over miles and miles * of country ; mule team ? , ox teams , lean horse * , and fat ones , all heading toward that land of promise , the west. They were going in bands of two , three , or four fami lies , sometimes , and again one family alone. Some of them were mechanics , who knew nothing of farming and just as little of the land they were golngfto and the spot on which they would stop. Olhera were farmers who had sold out comfortable homes to go west and buy more land. In Susan's pait of the procession there were two fam ilies , her sitter Mary with her hna- band , Thomas Smith , and their son Adolphus , rr Dolpb , and Cyrus Hol- man with his old mother. Susan trudged along , driving the cattle be fore her. _ _ Far and wide , as great a distance as she could see , was the green country dotted with Its comfort able whlto farm houses and large bares. She thought it a fine country , indeed , and wondered how soon they were to stop , not knowing they were to travel more than 100 miles yet , for Sueau was an ignorant and young wo * man , with small knowledge of geog raphy , and was not quite certain whether Dakota was a connty in Min nesota or reverse. Suddenly , as she walked along , eha came in full sight of a town set in among the blnffV , a neat , prosperous , busy town , with a great many brick houses and green trees. She called to Dolph to come and drive the cattle , and got Into the wagon she dfd not want to go through the town on foot. The town was full of people , farm wagons were standing close together down both rides of the main street , and the white tops of prairie schoon ers like their own were visible here and there. They stoppad at a grocery to buy some necessary articles of food and then went on. They came to a tall red brick school-house. It was recess and the children played about in the yard , Susan had never seen so many together in her life. The teach ers were standing in the doorway , and away up in the third story was one with a pretty , girlish face , watering some plants in the window. They looked wonderfully stylish to Susan's eyes , and she looked upon them as bsing very wealthy and important personages. The two men and Dolph stopped to gather the seeds tbat had fallen from the maple trees around the large yard. They wanted them to plant en the treeless prairies where they were going. The boys on the play-ground rather resented it as an infringement of their rights , but through a wholesoma feeling of awe for the principal who was watching them , they confined themselves mostly to inntterings of discontent among themselves ; one of the most -defiant , however , telling the men to "G'way , let them things be , " and muttering tea a companion , "Ye can git 50 cents a peck for them seeds down town , an * I want to go to the circus. " Presently the bell rang from the tower , and the children and teachers disappeared in the house , while the men came back with their baskets of seed and the wa gons jogged along. On and on they went , camping at night by some spring or small lake , and traveling days , till the comforta ble farm houses had disappeared , the small towns were things of the past , except hero and there one on the line of the railroad. There were no bees , either , only praiiie and grass and grass and prairie , with now and then an alkali sink , or some new settler's shanty , or dug-out. They began to look about for a phce to stop and to inquire of every man they saw , and they were few indeed , If there was vacant land near there. It all looked vacant enough. One day they met a man going back the way they had como , and across the top of his schooner was painted in large letters , "Gwin home tew my wlfes foakes. " "Bettor turn about , " he told them. "I've been in this blasted country nigh a month , snd there aint a tree era a shrub to break the monotony except here and there a house , and yon need a microscope to see that. Look at my anlmiles , they were good and fat when I come out here , but you'd have tew swing 'em twice tew make a shad- der , and be mighty quick about it or the snn'd shine through. " Not an encouraging report , but they persevered and finally settled down whore , beside the two little houses they built with lumber purchased of the railroad company , there was only one house In sight , and that & very small one. But they were near the railroad , that was a great gain , and they went vigorously to work to break what they could and prepare for winter. It was slow work , but trusting to the long , warm fail , of which they had been assured by older settlers in one place and anoth er on their journey , they expected to be ready tor the cold weather. Bat one day near the middle of Oc tober It grew suddenly cold , the wind began to blow and the snow to fall , end in a day and night the whole country was covered. "There is a drift 1300 feet long and 20 feet deepen on the track east of here , " the opera tor in the little depot told Mr. Smith when he went to make inquiries a day or two liter , "I don't know how it is further west , the lines are all down and I can.t get word , but there won't be a train htre for a. week , I pre sume. " That was encouraging , cer tainly , -when everything provisiont , wood and all depended on that train. The cattle had very poor accommoda tions , almost none , in fact. There had been no straw to mike abeds as on an older farmand the small amount of wild hay which spread on the few poles formed the roof , was little pro tection. Smith and his son shoveled a path to whore the poor creatures stood huddled together , each trying to crowd Into the center of the center of the gronp to protect himself from the bitter wind tbat drove the snow in blinding clouds across the prairie. All that day the wind blew fiercely and the snow plied higher and higher. No train came , only a telegram from down the line siying the men were shoveling and trying to clear the track , but the wind blew the snow Into the cuts almost as fast as they dug it out. Their snow plows were of little use , the drifts packed so there was no boating through them , nearly every engine available was damaged in some way , and the men must work on. Meanwhile the set tlers along the line must watt , a hard thing to do with both wood and pro visions running low , bul theyhcpedit would soon be over and a snpply como to them. There came a calm , still day , and they hoped more than before. Smith went to the little station again. A dispatch had just been received say ing the road was nearly open , a train was within twelve miles of them , a passenger train that had been snowed in on that road two days with noth ing to eat except what little fruit the train boy had and a barrel of crackers that happened to be on board it was a mixed train and carried some freight , which accounted for the crackers. Oyrus , taking advantage of the lull in the sterm , started for a little town on the railroad six miles away , in the di- rectlen of the snow-bound train. He I went after supplies ; their stock was I running very low , and at it was utterly impossible for a horse to get through the drifts , he went on foot , and ex pected to bring the things on his back. It waa pat noon when he reached his destination and he was very much fa tigued , in fact , he thought he had never been so tired in all his life. "Come from up there , six miles , said the grocer when he told him how far he had come. ' 'GDod God , man , how did you get here ! Is there any one alive up there ? You see we're half buried alive. " Cyrus thought so when he looked along the street at the houses buried to the second-story windows , some of them , tbose that had such a thing. 1 We're most out of wood , too , been burning lumber , furniture , any thing we could get hold of. Wanl something to eat , do yon ? Well , I'll let you have a little , you can't carry much , of course , but if you'd come yesterday I wouldn't let yon h d much anyway , we're so short here , thongk I couldn't let folks starve. But will have plenty to-morrow ; like ly , the train has moved up three mllei to day since morning and they'll send a freight right after them. " Cyrus was glad to hear of the more hopeful condition of affairs. "Lost any cattle up your way ? " asked the man. "Not yet , " said Gyms , "we hadn't many , and they've managed to stand it so far , though it's been pretty harden on them. " "You're lucky now , Joner , down here , you don't know him , he's an other man , he's a cattle man , keeps 150 or 200 head all the time ; he lost 130 head the first night of the storm ; went into the river. Cattle will do that , keep going and going to get out of the storm , and when they come to the river the hind ones keep pushing till they're all in. It's hard on Jones. He wasn't ready for winter ; none of us was. " Some one had came in to say the lines were working again np to the second town west , and they had only half a cord of wood in town. Only two fires they said , one in a hardware store , the other in a saloon , and people ple who could not crowd around them had gone to bed to keep warm. "If it only holds like this , " said the grocer , "and it don't ( blow , they can get wood to them in a day or two the worst road is below here and they've got that most clear , but if it blows again , God help them , they're all goners , every live one of them. " The early winter twilight had begun to darken the bright , clear day , when Cyrus started for home. The wind began to blow , too , and the snow to * hirl in a threatening way. He set tled his bag of provisions on his back and tried to hurry homeward. He had como by the sun in the morning but now that was gone , the roaddrirt- ed so fall of snow one cjuld not tell where it had been , and far and wide only the trackless prairie , look ing as much alike , no matter which way he looked , as do different parts of the ocean and as the wind rose the ausw flaw and whirled about so that he could not see ten feet ahead of him. Still , he pressed on trying to keep his way. The snow cut against his faca and blinded his eyes and filled his footprints as soon as made. Ho had walked nutil he was very tired and thought he must he nearly home when he saw a light. Tht.t must ba home and ho hurried on. He was almost up to it , or he could not nave seen it. It was in a small house which he knew at once was Dot his house. It seemed strange to him. He opened the door and went In. It was the grocery he had left he could not tell how long before. "Given it up , have yon ? " said the man , "I think that's the best thing you can do , shows your head's level. Did't look much like it when yon start ed to wade six miles after sundown. " Cyras looked at him confusedly. "I must be lost , " said he , slowly ; "I thought I had got home. " He held his hands out over the stove to warm them. "Look here , sir , " said iho man , coming up to him and beginning to lift the bag from his shonldera , "You stay right here it ain't no kind ot weather for a man to be starting out over these infernal perraries ; yon wait and have some supper and go to bed and start out when you have day light , it'll be bad enough then. Sally , " ho called , opening a door at the back of the little store , "can't you gat a bite for this man ? He's got lost and must stay all night. " Sally showed her loay face at the door and avowed her willlngnrss to have the bite ready in a jiffy , but Cyrus protested. He could not stay all night and leave his old mother out alone in tbat lonesome place to worry. He finally cot eon ted to eat some sup per and started once more as soon as possible. The snow whirled into the door behind him as he went out. "That's the end of him , according to my way of thinking , " said the man , looking after Cyrus but not seeing him. The grocer went back and shut the door. "This'll block the trains again , we're all done for , I believe , " said ho bitterly. Cyrus wandered on and on again. The snow beat in his face and blinded him but he did not atop and once more , when he felt he could travel no longer , he saw the welcome light. Again he opened the door , and again he was at the little grocery. "I thought I was at home this time , " said he slowly , and more confused than before as he stepped In through the door. The man wa just putting out his lights to go to bed. "Laok hare , sir , " said ho , "it'll save considerable trouble burying you if you go out again , but on the whole I wouldn't do it if I was yon. Go to bed here and I'll call you and have you off by daylight. " Nothing else could bo done. Cyrus saw he could not possibly reach home that night , and accepted the man's offer. offer."Now "Now , " said the man as ho prepared to start in the morning , "you've a tall walk before you , but it ain't blow ing hardly so furious and the sun shines a little , that'll help yon about your course. You ain't so bad off in pour mind , most likely , as a fellow on them snowcd-ln cars. He was going to be married week ago to-day. His girl's been here a'stewmg about it all the week , she and Sally's great friends. They've caokod np things three times and he's started three times and had to go back , till now he can't get back , the road's so foil be hind them. Her brothers is going down to-day to carry them the victuals on hand sleds They'll be glad enough to see them if they get there , but I doubt their setting there. " Cyrus hastened on full of anxiety concerning his mother , not without cause. She had dreaded to have him start , and had begun to watch for his return long before it was possible for him to have traveled the distance. As night came with the flying snow her anxiety Increased until she could bear it no longer. She went to the door and looked out but of course could cee nothing except the blinding snow She put a shawl over her head and went out. The wind nearly took her ofl her feet. She called Cjrus. " 31 I" " " ! but "Oyrus there was no answer. She would try and go and see Mary and Susan , she could not stay there alone all night. She pushed on , but the wind beat her about and the snow blinded her. She went aimlessly around and around for a while , then she grew tired and sink down in the dr'fts. A feeling of dreamy sleepiness came over her , she lay very still and soon cnly a corner of her shawl and a long lock of her gray hair flattered out above the snow. snow.Up at Neighbor Smith's the drifts gren higher acd higher , the house fairly shook on its slight foundation. Just ftt bed-time Smith thought he winld go out to look at the hoises and see if they were all right. He went , but did not come back. Dolph want to look for him and he did not come back. The two women crouched in the house knew what It meant. Susan opened the door , the wind uearly took her off her feet. Mary was frantic , she would go look for them , but Susan held her back. They could not go to bed , they wrapped the bed clothes about them and sat by the stove , cry ing. At last Susan went to get more wood , there was none. What should they do ? They sat there a while knger till the fire died out , then crept into the little hole under the house which served the purpose of a csllar. There they cronched in the darkness all night , talking a little in horrified whispers and weeping much. In the morning Susan crept upstairs and got a piece of a loaf bread ; it was all they had to eat and no fire to cook more. They ate a little of it but only a very little and clung closer to esoh other as the day wore on. Were they to starve to death there ? Sometimes they hoped they should , when they remembered what had happened , and again they sobbed at the thought It was night when Cyrus reached home. He stumbled en something nea : the house. He stooped down and drew it out of the snow. He stagger ed Into the bouse with it and stood wildly staring about the room as if he expected to seejsome one. When he could , ho picked the stiffened form from the floor as bast he could with his frozen hands , lild it tenderly on the bed and made his way to Neigh bor Smith's. The frightened women In the cellar were wild when they heard his foot steps over their heads , and still more trantic when he spoke to know if no one was there , but finally they under stood who it Waa and crept out of their hiding place. Mary broke the thick ice in the water pail and got cold water to take the frost from his hands and feet , and Susan seized the axe and demolished a couple of chairs , with which she started a firo. They had bitter tales for other , but it was a slight comfort to hear the sound of each other's voices , The snow continued to pile deeper and deeper , and no train came with the longed for supplies , but by burnIng - Ing the furniture in their own house and that belonging te Cyrus which be brought to them and finally the moit of his house , procured in the same way , the three managed to keep warm and lived carefully on the small stock of provisions which ho hid brought from town. He brought his mother's dead body and laid it m the little bed room till there could bo some way to dig a grave tha men he could not find. find.When When the train finally got through they were all three living in one little room , ( n which stood a span of'horses ' , to save their lives , the cattle having been nearly smothered by the snow. When the train whistled it was like news from another world ; they were saved. Salted Stories According to The Georgetown , Del , Inquirer the old Baits who live down at Henlopen are a pitiless , not to say hard crowd. That paper says : "Some seaman wandering along the Rehoboth beach last winter found a drowned man. They took the corpse np , Car ried it to Captain Tredendick's bar room , stood it up at the corner of the bar , and went out and told Tre- dendick that a friend wanted to treat the crowd. The crowd drank and left. To Tredendrick's surprise he could get neither money nor answer from the corpse , and , be coming enraged , struck him. He fell to the floor with a thud. Becoming scared ho called in the man's friends , and each solemnly declared the man WBB dead. Tredendick , white as a sheet and with trembling voice , was at Srst dumbfounded , but at last he ex claimed : 'Well , I did U In self-de fense ; he drew a knife on me before I struck him.1 Dym by Inches.
