THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. Out from the Blizzard By Edjrnr S. Bradley. 1 (Copyright, 1WO, by tl Author!' BjruUicaU.) MRS. KUTHVEN', tall, brilliantly dark, with the brent h of the prai rtet in her carriage, swept out of the Aining-room, and her husband, (leorg-e Buthven, and I turned to our coffee and oigars. "George, how t! id you pain that mag nificent woman for a vife7" Not at nil discomposed at the broad ness of my compliment to his wife, George smilingly responded: "You remember the great blizzard which swept over the western prairie states, particularly Nebraska, during January of 1887? Yes? Well, it was from thnt blizzard that I was rescued by the most beautiful woman it has ever been the happy lot of man to pos sess. "I was at that time, as you know, embarking in the practice of law, and had, to use an old-time phrase, 'arti cled myself to one of the most prom inent legal firms in this city. 1 grew steadily in favor of my superiors, who sre now my partners, so it happened that when an occasion arose in an im portant land suit, requiring that a mnn be sent to Ainsworth, Xeb., to obtain necessary information from the rec ords, I was selected for the duty. "I readied Ainsworth without inci dent and spent a couple of days there examining the court records, until I discovered that one link of evidence was missing. I shortly learned that it could be replaced by certain affidavits which a banker at Atkinson, 55 miles down the road could give, if he should be so disposed. Unfortunately only one passenger a day was then running and I found that had just left and that no other train would start un till late in the night. That would be a slow freight, which would not get me in Atkinson much before the passenger the next morning. So I concluded to drive the 55 miles. "Hurrying to the livery stable I in duced the proprietor to take me as far as Long I'ine, the next station, where I could and did obtain a relay of bron chos und another driver to Itassett. There 1 obtained another relay and started for .Newport, the next stop, and by the time we reached there, the snow was falling quite fast, but still there was no indication of the horrible storm in which so many lives were lost and in which the cattle ranches suffered almost to bankruptcy by thou sands of head of cattle being destroyed. As we proceeded, the storm increased in virulence on'd I was glad, indeed, when I could toast my chilled feet at the blazing hearth in the small hotel the place afforded, while my driver was seeing about an exchange of horses. "The liveryman returned and in formed me that he had not been able to induce the local stable keeper to undertake a journey, even to the next town, Stuart, though he said, if the case was very urgent, he would let me have a team to drive through my self, provided I would assure him against loss. Unaccustomed as I was to western blizzards, I jumped at this - chance, and quickly closed a deal with him. "He produced the scrawniest-looking team of bronchos one ever saw, and hitched them to a ramshackle ort of slat-bottomed buckboard bnggy and bid me godspeed with an expression on his face clearly show ing he never again expected to see either his team or myself alive. As to the team, he never did see it, as both the animals gave up the ghost but I am anticipating. "By this time the storm had as sumed terrific proportions. The snow, which had been falling softly and laz ily, now pelted down in solid masses, mixed with flakes of ice, cutting with biting force against my face, while the soughing of the wind hud risen to shrieks and howls and came with a force that nt times seemed powerful enough to lift bronchos, buggy and driver into the next county. My eourse lay along the railroad track. There was no road worthy of the name to follow, as the level character of the country and entire absence of rentes permitted one taking a'straight shoot' from one point to another, with only the possibility of meeting with some small slough that would re ' quire a little careful driving to cross. "Urivlng along with my head down wards to shelter my face from the pelting sleet and ice, I quite forgot to Took for my landmarks, the telegraph polts, but n more ugly blast than any I had experienced caused me to take id quick glance about over my mufller. Instantly I awoke to my danger. The telegraph poles had disappeared! I lad turned from my road and was Iriving across the wild, desolate, unin habited prairies, on which a house was not to be met for miles. "The storm now swirled and pound id and roared with ferocious power ibout me. Already I was passing -.hrough drifts so deep as to compel sy small bronchos to tug and snort In she effort required to pull the buggy through theih. Heavy darkness was npldly taking the place of the gray sh light, the dull, whirling snowbanks f clouds lowering and plunging about intil it seemed that they and the nasses of snow und sleet beating Against me were one. The cold, too, jad -become Intense, and the stinging jain In my fingers told me my hands ' xad been frost-bitten, while my feet teemed mere chunks of Ice, no power jf motion. Suddenly there came a jar and Ihe twonohog were brought to a halt. Tag as they would, they could not raise the wheels over the obstruction in our course. Now really alarmed at my situation I jumped from the my nearly frozen feet, and brushed away with my hand the snow which was packing in front of the buggy. "I was horrified to see thnt the bronchos had passed over one of the many graves which mark the failure of some hardy pioneer on these in terminable prairies, nnd my buggy had crashed against the small monu ment that some mourning friend or relative had placed at this savage, soli tary resting plnce. "I tell you, IInrrymy boy, I never wnnt again to experience such an un comfortable feeling as that which flashed over me on my discovery. This obstruction really appeared to me to be the mark of my own end. I am willing to admit that it was with something of the unreasoning power of a mnninc that. I lifted nnd pulled at the buckboard. until with a shout of wildest joy, I raised it over the oust run Kin and Himii nir into it. whipped nil the falntinir bronchos until I had driven far away from the lone ly, soul-harrowing locality. "Hut now I R.TW tllP ktl'ontrth r, m bronchos was fast waning, nnd, threatened by this new difficulty, mad ly urged them on, shouting and curs ing, crvinir in mv desnnlr. Klnunr slower became their puce, while about me i no siorm raged and snarled, re ceded nnd attacked, hnrllnc- thp Iml. tering ram of its power dead in the orcasis 01 trie mean, little, feeble team, nnd many, many times bringing them to a dead stop. "1 think 1 must have brcome a mnninc as at last I saw one stumble and fall, with his hoof on light In some orifice in tlm ground, while the other sank slowly, patiently, into the snow, his life going out in his lust struggle to rise. "I remember indistinctly of sitting by the side of the bronchos with thnt awful storm beating about me, and laughing nnd chattcringJis I toyed with their ears, or playfully tickled their sides with the broken butt of the whip. Then I remember of springing to my feet nnd gibbering ns I ran, making wide circles about them, dashing up to thenVends ns I have done in my school days, waving my arms to scare them into a scam per. "Then as the fatal warmth began stealing over me, sank into the snow and tossed hnndfuls of it nt the scurrying clouds and flying sleet. "When I opened my eyes I believed myself in dreamland. About me was every evidence of comfort and refine ment. The delicious sense of warm fur coverings impressed me, nnd I raised myself slightly to take in more of my surroundings. As I lifted my eyes they feasted on the fairy who had provided my dreamland with nil these comforts. She was darkly, radi antly beautiful, and I reached out my arms to bestow a shower of affection ate gratitude upon her. Then I re called the storm, saw again my dead team, myself running in madness about them, nnd how I had sunk in exhaustion into the snow. 'And Is this death? I cried to the beautiful spirit hanging over me. '.o,' she answered, 'you have been saved, and will, I hope, soon be able to arise.' "It is useless to dwell on my re covery to full consciousness, the myriad of questions asked and the un swers returned to them. My escnpe is easily explained. ou know, Harry, how if) was almost Impossible in those days to obtain lumber for the con struction of houses on the immense prairie lands of the west, nnd how, even in the present day, houses are built by cutting long strips of sod from the buffalo-tramped earth, laid in layers to the desired height, and covered with a roof of thnt eh cn closoly woven as to be impermeable 10 me rains or summer or the snows of winter. Hough ns they are in exterior, many of them are the homes of wealthy ranch owners, and are filled with nil the comforts to bo found in the most pulatial residences of the city. "Well', in plunging through the drifts my bronchos had at last fallen in the yard of one of these sod dwellings. Frank Coleman, the pro prietor of the ranch, pushing from the barn through the banks of snow heaped before the door, sow the dead team. Shouting encouragement to the driver he knew must be some where near, he worked his way about until he discovered my unconscious form mirtiullv covered bv Oih drift. Then with the fuiry upon whom my eyes had opened, lie carried me into t lie house. "You now know enough. I am not going to tell you how my 'fairy' be came my wife. We occasionally visit the ranch on which my fatlier-in-'n w, Mr. Coleman, has since constructed one of the most handsome residences in the west, and then' we live over those scenes. "Well, going, old boy? Glad to see you at any time, nnd my 'fairy' may herself tell you the rest of our story. "Oh, yes.

"Well, give a guess. 1 didn't ask von to tell me just exactly how many. I only want you to tell me how mnnt you ininK. "Well. I presume about 150, or pos siblv 175." "You ore a good guesser. I don't think, replied the man in the chair "If I should break the news to von nl. ruptly you would have a fit. So I will jusi give you tne first figure. J hat fig ure is seven." "Then I was too high? I made onh 73 strokes," answered the tonsorialist "Yon made just 707 strokes." The barber iriisned. "That's just what you did. nnd II you don't believe it you nsk somebody to count the next time you shave a fellow. I hnrdlv ever ires shaved now when I don't count the number ol strokes a bnrber makes over my face It's never lower than 500. and ninnv times the number is even more than you have made to-dny. I count strokes Only when you make n downward move ment with the razor." "Hullle gee." ejaculated the barber. "I shave about .'15 persons a day."

The New lV.l.rilllon of Anxtrnlln Must llerenfler He Con Mltlereil. Australia is to Great Hritain the most valuable of all her colonies, writes Hugh M. Ltisk, in the Xortb American Kcview. The external in fluence of Australia in the South Pa cific is bound to make itself felt be fore long. Those who know Australia best will have the least doubt that she will find mentis ere long to use that influence for purposes beneficial to herself. Her people were far from pleased with what was done in the case of Samoa; nnd it is safe to say that no such policy of concession wiil ever command the nssent of united Austrnliu. The sphere of her first interests will, for the present, be con fined mainly to the Tucific nnd Indian oceans to the south of the equntor. She will be interested in the Loyalty group, where France Is established, nnd in the New Hebrides, where she is very anxious to establish herself. She will be solicitous- about the Sol omon islnnds, part of which are at present recognized as German terri tory, nnd she will take a very deep interest in the future of Xew Guinen, part of which belongs to Germany, and the rest, beyond the British sec tion, Ik understood! to form part of Holland's great but little used estate in the eastern archipelago. These will undoubted! v be Aus tralia's first care, but she will not be content with these for very long. Siam. French nnd southern China nnd Horneo are natural marts for her trade, which in the next ten vnnra will be n rapidly Increasing one. nnd. In relntion to nil these, she will ex pect to exercise large influence. THE OVERWORKED TELEPHONE Its Field nf If riilnt-M Groulnu; l.nruer anil I.nrmr It I.uteat I ni-ii. One of our steam contemporaries calls attention to the fact that an American manufacturer of rotary pumps advertises ns follows: "Our pumps nt work about three miles out in the country are started and stopped from the company's city office, their operation being ascertained by tel ephone. This goes on for days without uny peron going nenr them." There could, of course, be other electrical methods of observing t he fact that the motors and pumps were at work, but the audible indication of the telephone is all right. There seems to be no end of the du ties that can be thrown on the tele phone, and each latest suggests! a new one, says the Electrical World and En gineer. For example, in mill towns, it is now found that culling people up in the morning by telephone beats the alarm clock nnd the perambulating watchman all hollow. This Idea has re cently received an extension In a west ern city, where u nntient. tired of de pending on careless nurses, now has ai I.. . i . mem nouuen ny teiepnone every time the hour comes around for the it d m 1 n .

Ghosts would frighten some people who are not afraid of germs. let the germ I a real danger. If this microscopic animnlism could be magnified to a size In proporiion to its deadlines It would show like a g'tint python, or fire breathinc dragon. The one fact to remember it that the cerin l power less to hrm the body when the blood is pure It is far easier to keep the germ out than to drive it out nftcr it obtains a hold in the system. Ir. Tieice's Golden Medical Iliscovcry is the most powerful and perfect of blood purifying medicines. It increases the quantity a well a the quality ol tl e nioou, and enables the body to resist disease, or to throw it off if disease has ohlnined a footing in some weak organ. Wherever the digestion is impaired, the nutrition of the body is diminished, for the blood is made from the food which is eaten, and half di rested food cannot supply the body with blood in quantity and quality adequate to its needs. For this condition there is no remedy equal to "Golden Medical Discovcrv." it cures ninety-eight out of every hundred per sons who give it a fair trial.

Why Their Wholesale Immigration to Ihe lalnnal Should lie lOnrnnrniteil. "The Chinese immigration question is one of the most serious with which congress will have to deal In deter mining' the future of the Philippines," said llrnry Clay Thackery, of Call forniti. Mr, Thackery recently re turned from Manila, where he. went to study conditions as the representative of a number of Pacific coast capital ists who lire negotiating- for a Inrge tract of land In Luzon, which they ex pect to develop, says the Washington I'ost. "Everyone is familiar, of course with the controversy ns to whether Chinese can be admitted to the Phil ippines nnd yet kept out of the I'nit fd States, and we people on the Pa cific const ore keenly alive to the dan ger that threatens this country should the door be thrown open to Chinese immigration by way of the Philip pines, But, ns one who is interested in the development of oiw new Island possessions in the. Pacific, 1 nm much In favor of admitting- as many Chi nese there as core to or can be in duced to go. "Though the Spanish 'conquered' the islands some .'100 years ago, the I'hilippines arc, to all intents nnd pur poses, n new country, and no new country can be developed without la bor. Work the Filipinos will not. They would rather beg or steal five cents a day thnn earn 11 dollar by la lor. Some one other than the Fili pino, therefore, must do the work that is to be done. Americans, or white men from other countries, could never be persuaded to go there in any contddernble numbers, so it would eem that prnctically the only boye of the Islnnds lies in the Chinese. If Congress can devise n way to suspend the Chinese exclusion net with refer ence to the Philippines nnd yet keep the bnrs up so far ns the rest of the country is concerned, it will confer upon the Philippine islands the great est boon that could befall them."

"No, I mean one of those corn con tracts which a chiropodist enters Into," snid the manager of the hostel ry. .-1 "Such a contract ns a chiropodist makes?" Inquired the guest. "Why, I can't understand what you are driv ing at." "Well. I'll explain, then," said Camp bell. "I .hnd' nn exceedinglj- bud pain it my left foot last week. It hurt so that a doctor stopping at my home und others could do nothing to allevi ate the soreness, which I found wns the result of a large corn that hnd been on my toe for a month. "I determined to hnve it eradicated by a chiropodist. I passed down Wells street one afternoon and spied the sign of n Gernlan doctor, which said something about 'huehneruu gen.' "I went in, investigated, and found he was willing to relieve me of my troubles by removing the growth. "He proceeded to perform the oper ation, anil when everything was fin ished he asked me to sign a contract for the work of removing the corn right along. He said it was likely to come back ugain and thnt such pacts were made occasionally, but I did not want to think anything more about it nnd refused. I never henrd of such a thing before."
