MES. RUTHVE.N, tall, brilliantly
dark, with the breath of the prat
rict In bar orriK, me pi out of the
dining-room, and her hutuaud, George
Ruthvcn, and I turned to our coffee and
cigara.
"George, how Aid you gain that mag
nificent woman for a wife?"
Not at all diacomposed at the broad-
neaa of mt compliment to hia wife.
George millngly reiponded
"You remember the great blizzard
which awept over the wentern prairie
atatea, particularly Nebraska, during
January of 1687? Yea? Well, it wan
from that blizzard that I reacued
by the moat beautiful woman it haa
crer been the happy lot of man to por
aeaa.
"I waa at that time, aa you know,
embarking In the practice of law, and
had, to uae an old-time phraac, 'art!
cled' myaelf to one of the moat prom
inent legal flrma In thla city. I grew
teadlly in favor of my superior, who
are now my partnera, ao it happened
that when nn occasion aroae In an im
portant land auit, requiring that a man
be aeut to Alnaworth, Neb., to obtain
neceaaary information from the ree-
orda, 1 waa selected for the duty.
"I reached Ainaworth without Incl
dent and apent a couple of daya there
examining the court recorda, until
discovered that one link of evidence
waa miming. I atiortl v learned that it
could be replaced by certain aflldavlta
which a banker at Atklnaon, Si mile
down the road could give, if he ahould
be ao diapoaed. Unfortunately only
one paeeenger a day waa then
running and I found that had Jut left
and that no other train would alnrt un
till late In tlie night. That would be a
alow freight, which would not get me
In Atklnaon much before the pannenjrer
the next morning. So I concluded to
drive the 63 mil'i.
"Jlurrylng to the livery atable I In
duced the proprietor to take me aa far
aa Long Hue, the next elation, where
I could and did obtain a relay of bron
choa and another driver to Iluaaett.
There t obtained another relay and
elarted for Newport, the next atop,
and by the time we reached there, the
anow waa falling quite fnt, but atlll
there waa no Indication of the horriblr
atorin in which ao many Uvea were
loat and In which the cattle runrhrl
Buffered almost to bankruptcy by thou
aanda of head of cattle bring destroyed.
Aa we proceeded, the atorm incrrnaeel
In virulence and I waa glad, Indeed,
when I could toait my chilled fret at
the blazing hearth In the amall hotel
the place afforded, while my driver waa
aeelug about an exchange of horaea.
"Tha liveryman returned and In
formed me that he bad not been able
to Induce the local atable keeper to
undertake a Journey, even to the next
town, Stuart, though ha aaid, If the
caae waa very urgent, he would let
me have a tenm to drive through my
aelf, provided I would aaaura him
agninat loaa. Unacc tiatouicd aa I waa
to weatern bllzznrda, I Jumped at thla
chance, and quickly cloaed a deal with
him.
"II produced th aorawnleat-look-Ing
team of bronchoa one ever aaw,
and hitched thrm to a ramahackle
eort of alnt-bottomed buckboard
buggy and bid me godaperd with an
rxpreaalon on hi fuc clearly allow
ing ha never again expected to are
either hia team or myaelf alive. Aa
to the team, he never did aee It, aa
both the aulmal gnv up the ghoat
but I am anticipating.
"By thla time the atorm had as
aumrd terrific pruportlona. Th anow,
which had been falling aoftly and Ins
ily, now pelted down In aolld inaaaes,
mixed with flake of Ice, cutting with
biting force agninat my fate, while
tli aoughlng of the wind had rlarn to
hrlrka and howla and came with a
fore that at time aeemed powerful
enough to lift bronchoa, buggy and
driver Into the next county. My
courie lay along the rallrond track.
There waa no road worthy of the
nam to follow, aa tho level character
of tha country and entire aliaence of
fence permitted one taking a 'straight
hoot' from one point to another,
with only the pomililllty of meeting
with aome amall alough that would re
quire a little careful driving to eroaa.
"Driving along with my head down
ward to aheller my ice from the
pelting alret and ice, I quite forgot to
look for my landmnrka, the telegruph
polea, but a more ugly lilnM than any
I had experienced rnnacd me to take
a quick glance about over my mufller.
Inatantly I awoke to my danger. The
telegraph pole had disappeared! I
hod turned from my road and waa
driving acroui the wild, dcaolut. unin-
nn lilted prairie, on which a tioune
wax not to be met for inllea.
"The atorm now swirled and pound
ad and roared with feroclou power
about me. Already I wna panning
through drift ao deep aa to mnicl
my amall bronchoa to tug and anort in
the effort required to pull the buggy
through them. Heavy dnrkncK ws

until It act-mrd that they ami the
naoara of anow and sleet beatliif
agalnat me were one. The cold, too,
had become intenae, and the atlnging
pain in my tlngera told me my huiula
had been frost bitten, while my f,.rt
aernird mere chuuka of Ice, no power
of motiou.
Suddenly there cam a Jar and
the bronchoa were broug.it to a halt.

The man or woman with
temper, restless, fidgety movements, tail
ing memory and lack of concentration is
tutii'riiig from crippled nerves. The
lines of care, the palid cheeks, the wasting
flesh, the dark circles under the eyes tell
all too plainly of the worry, the pain,
the loss of sleep and disturbed digestion,
that break down the nervous forces and
consume the vital power. Kor cjukk and

away with my hand the anow which
waa packing in front of the buggy.
"I waa horrified to aee that the
bronchoa h:nl passed over one of the
many graves which enark the failure
of aome linrily pioneer on theae In
terminable prairiea, and my buggy
had cranhed againat the amall monu

relative had placed at thia aavage, soil

"I tell you, Harry, my boy, I never
want again to experience auch an un
comfortable feeling aa that which
flashed over me on my diacovcry.
Thia obatruction really appeared to
me to be the mark of my own end. I
am willing to admit that It waa with
omethlng of the unreasoning newer
of a maniac that I lifted and pulled
at the buckboard, until with a ahout
of wildcat Joy, I rained It over .the
obatruction and jumping Into It,
whipped up the fainting broncho until
I had driven far awny from the lone
ly, eoul-harrowing locality.
"Hut now I aaw the strength of my
broncho wa faat waning, and,
threatened by thla new dilliculty, mud
ly urged them on, ahouting and ciirs
Ing, crying in my denpair. Slower,
alower became their pace, while about
me the atorm raged and snarled, re
ceded and attacked, hurling the bat
tering ram of lta power dead In the
breaata of the mean, little, feeble
team, and many, many time bringing
them to a dead atop.
"I think I muat have become a

"I remember Indiatlnctly of aittlng
by the aide of the bronchoa with that
awful dorm beating about me, and
laughing and chattering aa I toyed
with their eara. or playfully tickled
their aide with the broken butt of
the whip. Then I remember of

(traling over me, nnnk Into the

"When I opened my eyea I believed
myaelf In dreamland. About me wna
every evidence of comfort and refine

rained myaelf ellghtly to take In more

had provided my dreumland with all

arm to beatow a shower of affect lun

called the atorm, aaw again my dead
tenm, myaelf running in niiulncna
ahout them, and how I had eunk in
exhauatlon into the anow. 'And la thia
death?' I cried to the beautiful aplrit
hanging over me. 'No,' ahe auawereil.

Queen Victoria's will lias been opened
and examined by the rliily conMituted
authorities, but r..tl.if:c; will sver be
made public oilicial.y t:ii to the provi
sions of the instrument or the amount
of her private fortune.
It i known that the queen made a
will early in her riirn, which was re
peatedly altered and added U as chil
dren and f;iaii(Ichi!iirf'n were born, and
aa her eMutvs rupiilly udtunced in
value. This proceeded until li-'Jd, when

new document drawn, and with great
personal care thia wa accompli: lit-d.

of a guess as to tli? provisions of the
queen wi.l dei iiirr Unit I'rinci s Hrat
rice, -widow of I'rince Henry of llntten
lier. will 1 the principal beneficiary.
She is the gnvernor-i.f the hie of Vight,
and will probably inhtrit Orborne
houive and the w,t,-!e estate surround
ing it. Then the duke of Connaught,
and his sons, who have been great fa
vorites with Victoria, will receive a
lurt'e portion of the fortune. The duke
will probably Income the owner of Hal
moral and Ihe Scottifch property.
The grandchildren who are expected
to receive the largest bequest are the
two children of Victoria's youngest son,
the former duke of Albany.
The queen' second daughter,
"Princess Christian of Schlt'swiK-llol-stein,
is not rich, nnd it is expected that
she and her four children will be liber
ally provided for. v
Edward VII., who will be amply pro
vided for by the country, and the duke
of York, who coiiwn into the duchy of
Cornwall, and will be the prince of
Wales, will probably not be sharers In
the late queen's private fortune.
MEETS LADY CUNARD.
New York rolleeman Conin to Grtf

fcoal l ine.
Lady llache Cuiiiinl. of Ixndon, has
bad her first experience with a New

out aeciiud bint. The iKilicenian ex-
plains It by saying there never would
j have been any trouble if he had
j known anything about it before and
he hiqua he will be ublc to keep his
: dftiill to the pier. Lady Cuniird went
down to the Cunnrd Line pier to meet
her husband and liltle daughter, who
were passenger on the I'nihriii, just
nrriving. Aa the vibm-1 waa lieing
warped into the dock she prosed for
ward e.iirerly and the net caught the
eye of an elderly policeman.
"Vc'll have to get back," he shout
ed nt her. but her ladyship aimply
drew hers.lf together nnd stared
haughtily nt him. lie approached
nnd the noblevvoiunn became more
haughty.
"Fellow," she said freczinglv, "whnt
do you mean by mich Impertinence?"
"Impertinence. I it?" was the an
swer. "Move brick, now! Don't be
trying to bluff."
"I shall take your number, officer.
I am I.adv Itache Cunard."
"Ho! Ho! Ho. I.ady Cunard
own the Cunard line, I mippose? Move
back!"
.lust then a high odicinl of the line
approached, doffed his hut and bowed.
The policeman shivered and his eye
In gan to project.
"Is it l.iuly Cunaril?" lie whlaperol,
In an aue-alrnck voice.
"Sure," was the cold answer.
"Ho she really own the Cunard
line?"
"Mi st of it." was the nnswer.
"Will you kindly t:ike me to the end
of the pier nnd kick me overboard?"
For the rc-st of the stay there he
guarded In r ladyship -n zealously that
when a man turned around to stare nt
1 im he threatened to hit him with hia
