A Mere Reliable Account


On the arrival Of Zahl and Edwards
yesterday the..whole and true story was
heard concerning the late unpleasant
aess ut Stoneville, on the Little Mis-
souri,, and was given In a more graphic
manner than the other reports which
have been published. II is us follows:
Sheriff Willard and party arrived at
Stoneville just in time OF Thursday to
Illustrate tn. delivery of Jesse Pruden.
On learning that Axleby had said in
the village that day that he and his
party would take Pruden away from
his custodians even il all his party but
one were killed In the attempt. the
sheriff determined to do his best to
prevent such action. Sheriff Willard
knew that IL the desperad,"s were not
intercepted they would probably lie in
ambush aud carry out their threat, so
when he saw Axleby and his gang he
mounted and ordered them To stop
when the firing ensued. The first fire
killed deputy O'Hara, rs previously
stated. and wounded Tultlc, Camp.

from their horses. and AS the sheriil's

into a store, taking O'Hara's body
with them. Axleby and his party at

crowd Of innocent cowboys, spectators
near, killing Cunningham and wound.

desperadoes escaped under cover OF

fight, which has already been related
and the scheme to effect Campbell'i
capture was then put In execution
substantially as before related, which
resulted In his death. The sheriff anG

PARK NOTES.

The son Of Mr.. CrosSman. Of Provi-
dence, while examining the Paint Pots
at the Geyser Meadow. broke through
the crust, up to his knees into the hot
sulphur paint, and one leg, near the
knee joint, was severely injured. DR..
DeDolph. who was at the Upper Gay
ser Basin, was sent for and dressed his
wounds. Had he been alone he would,
in all probability. have lost his life,
for the more effort he might make, the
deeper he would have sunk into the
scalding composition.
The wife of Prof. VIM. Allen, of
Madison, WIS.,, while at the Grand
Canyon, was attacked and fearfully
bitten 10y Wild beasts. Her two sons
came to her assistance, and with much
difficulty succeeded III rescuing her.
They had no arms with them, having
been informed at the Mammoth Hot
Springs p. 0. that hunting in the Park
was strictly prohibited. She was ter
ribly bitten on her hands and face be-
fore the Unsuitable blOOd-suckers could
be choked or smoked off. Mrs. Allen
is highly Indignant at the secretary's 5
order prohibiting the killing Of animals
in the National Park. She declares
they ought to be shot, no matter how
enchanting their song may be. These
were the only wild beasts she encoun-
tered during her tour in the Park.
When she comes again she gives tair
notice that she will come armed TO the
teeth, and will kill every blood-sucking
bird or beast of prey, unless the assist
ANS are on hand to furnish them with
food sufficient to amuse them while
she is tending to her own business.
Mrs. Baker, of Worcester, Mass, on
going through the Park recently. gave

deal of trouble in attempting to lind
all the wonders she had heard OF that
were to lie found on Hell's Half Acre.
She found Paradise Lake and the Ex-
celsior Geyser, tut but insisted that
there was Lemonade Lake where the
most delightful drink for Quenchlng
thirst could be had without money
and without price. It was in vain
that the guide insisted that he had
never heard Of such Il lake. She called
him "a poor stupid know-nothing. and
said that she had heard on the best au-

A Possible Contingency.

Ottawa, Ont. Telegram, July
81. - A conservative politician,
speaking of the government relations
with the Canadian Pacific. remarked,
that if the railway should again revert
to the government it would he II
good thing for the country, because
Canada would soon be so bur-
dened with debt that annexation
to the United States would be newt
able. On being asked if the premier
looked with favor upon such con-
tingency. the same gentleman replied
that Sir John would probably see the
Pacific company through and retire
from public life as soon us possible
after the road was opened. leaving TO
his successors the work Of defending
his past actions. 1t is the ''hurrah'
that is expected to follow the opening
Of the railway from ocean to ocean
that the government rely on to carry
them through the next political CAM
paign.
