following wonderful game chicken
story
Mr.. Adam Reigle. Of this city, lost
a hen last week which was twenty
years old. She was pure game lineal
descendent ofthe Gallia Phasiana. and
full Of fight on al occasions About
SIX years ago she lost leg IN a battle
and subsequently one eye In her
last battle she Lost her remaining eve,
and then. being totally blind she could
fight no more She was q great lay
er, and haa laid IN average Of twelve
dozen eggs per anuum, which would
aggregate 2, $50. At 20 cents per

Four Miners killed ana Nine Rmr-
fed Alive by u Landslide.
DEADwooD, d. r., May 2O.-A cave
occurred at the Golden Terra mine AZ I
O'Clock last evening, by which II is sup
posed thirteen men will lose their lives.
The night shin of sixty men was lust
coming on, but only twenty had entered
the tunnel when large body of earth
fell In at distance Of nearly 200 feet
from the month, tearing and throwing
timbers as far as 100 and 200 feet.
One man, Thomas Green, was thrown
by the compression OF air eighty feet out
Of the tunnel against the side Of the wall
OF an open cut and killed ms antly. Two
others were blown through the tunnel
toward Highland Mine. One Of them es-
capped unhurt, and the other was struck
by piece Of timber and died shortly al
terWard. Eleven men wrre buried under
the debris. The cave is supposed to be
250 feet long, 100 wide and so feet, ana
occurred directly over large ore cham
Der, completely filllng it. The killed as
tar as known are Thomas Green and
Patrick King.
Those imprisoned In the cave are j.
Farley, l.. Wueens j. Wedlock, John
Miller, Thomas Thomas =. Calvin. Angus
McLeon, Jack Beatty, Matt Piunkett
Joe Haskins and man named McCor-
mack, all OF whom are supposed to be
badly hurt. News Of the disaster spread
rapidly, and thousands Of miners were
soon on the scene with picks aud shoyels,
and at once began the task of digging ont
their comrades. After an hours la, d
work they were able to converse with
James Farley, who said he was pinloped
by timbers and rocks, and exclaimed:
"For Gods sake, boys, hurry! can't
stand IL much longer"
He probably died soon after, as no re-
spoDse could be heard to the calls of the
workmen.
!. Work was prosecuted vigorously and
will be kept up until all the bodies are
recovered. The vicinity OF the m,ne is
crowded with grief-stricken relatives aud
friends of the imprisoned miners.
Tie Golden Terra Mine is owned by
the Homestake Company. The point
OF the catastrophe is what is known as
the disputed ground between the Gopher
and Terra Companies, to secure possess
sion OF which both companies have been
working with great haste. The cham
Der was SO feet high, 200 feet long, and
about 100 feet wlde. This great space

1t is believed that seven escaped
through tunnel to the Lead City side
of the hill. The cave Is SO extensive
that 1t Will take some time 10 clear

'aiI has created great excitement, and
cannot be explained, as there was no

WELL LAID ON.
William q. Guthrie WhfDped at
New Castle, This Morning.

William Q. Guthrie Whipped at
New Castle, This Morning.
When the gates of the Jail yard at
New Castle, were thrown open this
morning at 10 o'clock, a large crowd
soon surg in, and within few mo-
ments the yard was filled by Curl
GUS and anxious crowd.
The cause OF such large crowd be-
ting present, was owing no doubt to the
fact that William q. Guthrie, who was
Convicted during the present term of
Court OF committing an assault with iu-
tent to rape little girl named Anna
Belle Davidson.
A few minutes after 10 o'clock Guth-
rie was brought out Of the Jail and plac-
ed In the pillory for one hour, which in
fiction he underwent with sang troid,
despite the jeers Of the crowd.
After he was taken down from the
pillory his arms were pinioned to the
post, and Sheriff Clark proceeded TO
administer the second portion of the
sentence, by giving him thirty lashes.
At first he received them defiantly,
but at the completion Of the seventeenth
stroke. he threw bis head forward as an
act OF subjection, and at the same time
the blood commenced to gush forth from
the cuts upon his back. The remainder
OF the lashes he received In abject sub
mission.
When the Sheriff had ceased the
whipping aud started ~ lead his prise
IS. back to the cell, Guthrie suddenly
raised his head, and in biting sarcasm
said II reckon, gentlemen, you are
satisfied now." He was then taken ia
his cell where he will serve out the
third portion of his sentence, five years
imprisonment.

vision in the law that the husband
