RECORD OFF

Hennessy and Dunn found, recently. seven
miles above the Shades. on the Missouri,
two bodies so badly burned by prairie fire
as to be unr~ecognizable. The remains are
supposed to be those OF Billy Close and Jack
Williams, two wood hawks who Kept a yard
on the river at Strawberry island. They
are known to have left their yardtwo weeks
before for Berthold, TO purchase supplies,
and have not been seen since. They had a
team and heavy wagon, and Close had at
least $500 ON his person when he left, 1t is
not unlikely that the men were killed By
Cree Indians, but the most natural supposi-
ton is that they were killed fpr their money
by some rivals in business.

man named Mary Sellers, who was terribly
mangled. She was carried to the hospital
in q bag.
A fire occurred near Gardner, Dakota, on
the farm OF Chmer & Stewart recently. The
barn and granary, which latter contained
about $1,000 bushels of oats, were totally

to have originated from a spark from a
pipe. There was ST., 900 upon all the prop
erty, buildings, ETC., but q small part of the
insurance Is upon the buildings DESTROYED.
The loss will probably reacl $1,000.

A noticeable feature in South Ameri-

large increase in the number of steam
ers visiting Argentine ports. There is
said to be a foreign steamer now for al,

steamers now ply regularly between
Beunos Ayres and Bahia Blanca, a fact
which strikingly testifes to the deyel-

along the track and either tried to
follow sround, or else could not get
out of the way. At all events, the

tence, until il could argue certain matters,
which the court took under AMUSEMENT.
