A Hevoine In the Blasts, From Mr. J. H. Ager, of Ord, Neb, and one of the secretaries of the state board of transportation, a representative of the Ber learned an interesting tale of the pluck and good judgment exhibited by a young lady school teacher of Valley county, Not many miles from the town of Ord is situated the school house of Mira Valley school district. This house is a small frame structure and the nearest dwelling to it is at least one-half mile distant. The pupils who attend this school are usually brought to les- sons ina conveyance in the and morning, called for in the evening, Thursday morn ing, January 12, there was little eviden of the coming of the terrible storm which played such havoe in all portions of the country, but when the blizzard came it broke with cqual fury in the neighborhood of Ord. In the little school house of Mira Valley district, Miss Minnie Frecman, the teacher, et in hier teens, was endeavoring to allay theé ars of thirteen pupils_between the ages of six and fifteen years. The task was no light one and the children were v highest pitch of excitement b fury of the storm. In the midst of the X ns- surance that all would be well a terrible gust of wind struck the building, the windows rattled, the house shook and the door of the structure was torn from its hinges. It was then the young teacher realized the necess| of preparing for emergencies, With an hibition of rare judgment, she gathered her little brood securing a coil of strong_heay. ran with the largest ones and tied the children together by the arms and bodics, three abreast.

He Saves the Lives off Two Ladies at the Risk of His Ow There was a runaway on South Thirteenth street yesterday, and but for the courag and presence of mind of a fifteen-year-old hoy three persons might have killed outright orseriously injured. The lad’s name is Henry Pritchett. He lives with his father ona m about six miles southwest of the city, and together with his mother anda young lady named Martin, started for town in the morning on a shopping expedition, the corner of Vinton and Thirteenth st the team uttached to the sleigh became fr ened, Young Pritchett, who was driving, kept a stiff rein on the animals and pulled with all his might. The lines were old and badly worn and one of them broke. This caused the horses to increase their speed and ushed along at a frightful gait. When ) within two blocks of Mason street the frightened occupants of the sleigh wer horrified to see that a wagon, loaded with o huge stick of timber, had broken down and that it extended clear across Thirteenth street. To crash into this meant death, but quick as thought young Pritehett sprang from the sleigh, landing squarely on the off h '8 back, He grabbed the vit of both animals und succeeded in stopping them within a few feet of the obstruction, 1 ond their terrible fright neither of the la- dies were injured and no dumage was done save u broken rein. ™ Northwestern's New viff, Frerenr Burear Osana Boakn or Traoe, OMAIA, Jan.17, 1888, —To the Editor: It is with sincere pleasure we uote the reccnt action of the Chicago & Northwestern rai road, when, by virtue of a new tarifl issue of a few duys ago, they open up the northwest *in her arms,she tied the own been cithe ern portion of our state (und indeed the Black Hills country as well) to our Omaha merchants and manufacturers, upon o perfect parity with Chicago, so far an rates are concerned.
