From the Courier-Journal.
MaTSVHX*, Kt., Jan. 4.—William F.
p oW er was to marry Mis* Ella Marvin at
ber homo in Aberdeen at 3 o’clock to-day.
The river ha* been full of ice for several
beys, and last night it blocked at this point.
At 8 o’olock this morning Ollie Eddington
w ,i John Midgall, ferryboat men, started
from tbe Aberdeen side in a skiff,
which they dragged on tbe lee
to pilot Power safely over the
frozen deep. They were over three
hour* reaching the Kentucky shore.
At 1. o’clock they started tiack, pulling the
skiff filled with ice and cakes for iha wed
ding. and accompanied by Power and bis
colored servant. On aoonunt of the danger
tlie journey was slow. It was watched hv
erowds of people from both shores. The
party was nearly two hours reaching the
middle of the river, when they abandoned
the skiff and struck out. Indian fashion, for
the Ohio shore. Before they could reaoh
the shore the ice begau moving,
and the throng of people watching
were thrilled with fear aid anxiety.
Jlidgal! and the colored man made
back to tbo abandoned skiff, which was on
a large cake of floating ice. Power, fol
lowed by Edgington,.attempted to reach the
Ohio shore, from which they were soon
shutoff by running water. In the course
an hour, but only after aid from tbe shore
*nd a thrilling experience, they succeeded
in lauding safely.
Power hastened up the grade to report to
bis thoroughly alarmed sweetheart, and
then went back to assist in getting Midgail
anl his servant from the floating cake,
which was accomplished about 5 o’clock.
After these thrilling events the wedding
took place.
Travelling In a Kansas Blizzard.
From the Indtanavolit Journal.
Columbus, I*d„ Jan. 14.—A letter just
received here from Albert La Rue of this
city, now in the southwest, relates a thril
ling experience which he passed through in
s Kansas blizzard.
On Dec. 5, with four men, a woman, and
a little girl, he started from Okeen, O. TA NARUS.,
and traveled northwest, 'xhe point to be
reached was 100 miles distant. Thessocmd
day it began to rain, and after ten hours
snow set in, and for twelve hours they
could not see ten yards ahead of them. The
show kept falling until od the level it was
twelve iuches deep, and in the draws piled
up in some places to twelve feet in depth.
Ibis blizzard continued for two days and
nights, and when it ceased all trails
were obliterated, and tbe sun was
obscured by heavy clouds, so that they lost
their way on the prairie. They traveled
about for four days. haviDg a fire only for
a short time. On the evening of the fifth
day the party reaobed the "black oak"
country, and for tbe first time went into
camp. On the following moruing two of
the men started ou horseback to find a trail,
and after riding eight hours were success
ful. It was not over four miles from the
camp, and revealed tbe fact that they bad
crossed their own tracks three times. At
the end of the thirteenth day the party
reached a settlement, just iu time to avoid
starvation. They were out of provisions
and feed for the horses, and with their
hands and feet badly frozen.
His Hand Froze to a Limb and Saved
H m.
From the fit. Louis Republic.
Memphis, Jan. 3.—James Matthews and
Dr. John Williams of this county are the
heroes of a remarkable adventure from
which they barely escaped with their lives.
"Yesterday morning they sot out to cross
Wolf river in an old bateau at a point
where the stream is half a mile wide, and
when about sixty yards from the bank,
where the water was very de;p. with a
swift current, their boat sank and both
left struggling in the icy torrent. Matthews
managed to reach a tree and pulled
himself up to a seat on a stout limb.
Dr. Williams was swept past this ref
uge, and could do no better than olutcb
the pendant branch of another tree. He
was too much benumbed to reach the
truuk and was afraid to let go, so there he
stayed half submerged in freezing water,
while bis companion shivered on a limb
near at band, but unable to render him
any assistance. There they remained for
several hours, when at length their cries
were heird and a rescue undertaken. Xt
was necessary first, however, to build a
lioat, and this took six hours more, and it
was not until the? had passed nearly ten
hours in their perilous situation that they
were finally taken off. Dr. Williams’hand
had frozen to the limb he grasped and It
wns necessary to bring the limb away with
him. But for freezing to it he would have
been swept away and drowned.
Frozen Almost Solid on a Car Plat
form
From the Chicago !\ev Record.
Joliet, 111,, Jan. 5. —When the Chicago
aud Alton “hummer” drew up to the depot
bsre at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon the pas
sengers wuiting to take the train saw a man
drop off the bumpers on the front end of
the baggage car. Help was given him,
when it was found that he was dying. His
ears, face and feet were fnini stiff. He
was taken to the hospital, where the doc
tors and nurses have tried unauccessfully so
far to restore hun to consciousness. The
dootors say ho is frozen almost solid. His
name Is John Bussey, and he is 3’J years
old. He got on the train at Poutiao to go
to Dwight, getting m the front end of the
baggage car, but the “hummer" does not
stop until Joliet, fifty-five miles away, ia
reached. There is no door in the front end
of the baggage car. and he had to stay out
side. He met a terrible fate, the worst
blizzard of the season catching him in full
force.

J SMOKING TOBACCO
10 S D° you want to keep your husband home at night,
an d keep him agreeable and pleasant ? He must
smoke, and yet, you don’t like the smell of his tobacco. You can
drive him away to his dub—out of just such things come misery,
unhappiness and divorce. The trouble is that he uses poor
tobacco. Coax him to get Blackwell’s Bull Durham Smoking
Tobacco; its delicate aroma will not be offensive to you, and
it will not fill all the curtains, hangings and dothing with that
stale disagreeable odor that now troubles you. Keep your husband
home, and avoid all risks by having him smoke Bull Durham
Tobacco. Sold everywhere.

destroying their loved one*, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sanding
them to premature graves.”

“ Our physicians in the children's depazt
ment have spoken highly of their experi
ence in their outside practice with Castoria,
and although we only have among otir
medical supplies what Is known as regular
products, yet wc are free to confess that the
merits of Castoria has won us to look with
favor upon it.’’
