DR.. Mary Walker had another adven-
ture in Washington while attending an
open air tooth drawing operation by Dr..
Romaine, who is making a tour of the
United States. While an opera tion was
being performed DR.. Mary slapped a
young man near her familiarly on the
at the same time making a
jocular remark about dentistry. In re-
sponse the young man placed his hand
on the DOCTORS shoulder and saluted her
with, Hey, dude" Indignantly
Mary raised her cane and lunged vici-
ously at the speaker, following it up
with kick on the shin. Young Ameri-
ca retaliated with blow under the eye,
surprising his tormcntor to be man,
and the irate doctor was completely
knocked out in one round. As soon as
she revived she yelled for a policeman,

ACsye Under ~. Louis.

While some workmen were engaged
on Tuesday night in digging founda-
ton in st. Louis, at No. 1lO6 Collins
street, they discovered an underground
cavern, whose walls and ceiling W re
braced with timbers, evidently Of great
age. The floor was of solid rocks and
along it soon crept party of explora.
tion, who, proceeding in a straight line
east for about fifty feet, came to an
angle and followed another arm of the
cave which pointed towards Carr street.
Beyond the turn was another and
smaller opening, which they entered
and walked on for some distance, when
they came to another turn, pointing
north. This turning was about seventy
five feet long, and at the end of that
distance the cave again turned east. In
their explorations the party came upon
several relics of undoubted historical
value, among them an Indian bow, a
flint lock, some pottery and a small
brass or copper box containing five
parchment documents, neatly folded
and written partly in French and
partly in Spanish. To-day the place
was closed to the public in order that
local scientists may have an opportu-
nifty of making an official investigation
of its contents.

for sufficient reasons, advised her niece
not to keep company with Curran, and
the latter began hos'ilities against Mrs.
L0uiSon. His first act was to hire lads
to pelt stones ut Mrs, Louison's windows
at all times of the night. Then he paid

A Fatal Horse Distemper.

Black Hills Democrat: We are advised
by telephone from Spearfish of the ar
rival at that place of the Ritchie Bros,
stockmen, from the Little Missouri
country, who report a large number of
mountain Indians in that region. They
also report the prevalence of a fatal cpl
demic as raging among the ponies be-
longing to the reds. Just what the
disease is, is not known. The animals
attacked live but a short time, and never
recover. The authorities Of Montana
should take measures to corral the herd
out on the ranges until the epidemic has
run it's course. Should the disease get
spread to the settlements it would create
terrible havoc among stock. Ut would
not be a bad idea for the authorities Of
the Hills counties to establish a quaran-
| tine against all horses coming from that
section. The cattle in that country are
reported as quite thin in flesh, but Wig
| orous, and that they will pull through
the winter with no more than the usual
loss.
