severity ofthestnrms. Granville Stuart,
tho president OF the Montana Stock
Growers association, states that the
stock has not suffered much In
Meagher county.
The editor OF the Montana Mining

Press representative that the
stock about here had suffered
much, that should the Id
snap continue, or should It be re-
peated soon, there would be the
greatest loss known IN years. Beaver,
Read and Gallaun counties report
heavy storms and heavy losses.
The ranges between Benton and
the Sun river have suffered great loss
on account Of the lack OF grass and
water.
Many Of the Pegrim Indians are re-
ported frozen to death. The losses
here consisted for the most pars of
frozen feet, ears and tingee.

A WILD woMAN FOUND.
A Mystery That Has Disturbed a
Neighborhood Made Clear.

WoNELsDoRF, PA, Dec. 20.-For
several months the citizens Of this
village Situated near the foot OF the
South mountain, range of the Allie
ghenies) have been disturbed by the
most unearthly yells coming from the
hills. 1t was generally supposed
that they emanated from some
strange animal which had taken
refuge in the rocks. Mr.. Griesemer
Of the Bethany Orphans home, a Re-
formed church institution Mt the foot
of the mountain, several times heard
the screams. Franklin Katterman,
Jacob Matthews and Theodore Startza,
all old hunters, followed up trail for
several hours, but We're finally obliged
to give up, as they were led far up into
the mountain Businesses. Stones and
huge rocks were rolled down the hill
ia their path, and they were Obliged
to dodge these missiles every now and
then
Theodore Startze says lie saw liv-
ing thing, half human, half beast. He
stood still, the blood chilling in his
VEINS. lie had his gun with him, but
he dared not shoot He next started
on "A run, and TO use his own words,
flew down the hill and did not stop
until he got home, not taking time 10
look whether the beast was following
him or not A party of employees at
the Rnbesonia furnace shot
AZ tie beast, but missed
it, II il reliably stated that the
managers of the furnace offered $500
for the animal alive and 500 for Its
dead body. For some WEI ks every
person has given the mountain vide
| berth Several farmers also lost sheep
and chickens.
To-day the mystery was cleared up.
| A party OF WOmel dOTf hun ters secured
the mountain. They found human
/ footsteps in the snow, which they
! tracked TO rude hut-a charcoal
| burners deserted cabin. Here they
found young woman, probably twen-
ty-hve ears of age. She was hin y
1 dressed her surroundings were uu-
couth and she appeared much
frightened. She has u wild and bag
gard look and who she Is no one
Knows She will probably be re-
moved 10 the polr-hnuAe. She threw
stones down the muuntain and yelled
10 scare the people away. She is OF
muscular build, and many think she
has been following this kind Of life for
years, judging by her general appear,
ance, She has shown the strength OF
an Amazon, and the people have de
cided to let her alone until the author
tiles take her in charge.

A STORY or rwo sLAvEs.
Reunion in wedlock of Uncle Tom
and Bis Beloved Aunt Chloe.
ICNNenWuFTN IIWt5,
~


Probate Judge Hawn issued a mar
rage license yesterday TO James and
Eliza Kelley There is nothing re-
maikable about the issuing Of the
license, were 1t not from the fact that
the old couple were not fully convinced
that they had ever been married, al
though they have lived together many
years II Is one of the old stories of
now q young couple, as slaves, were
made man and wife after the custom
prevalent I'm the sunny South
~ that dSte. Children were
born to them, but the slave-desler
came that way and their master being
pushed for money disposed OF their
children. Times grew harder and 10
was not long ere the husband and
mother were separated, one going 10
Louisiana and the other 10 Tennessee.
Then came the war and the exodus OF
slaves to Kansas and other ststes, and
unbeknOwn TO each other they both
came to Leavenworth.
While attending church in this city
one Sunday, the old man became cOu-
WINGED that he saw his long-lost Liza
/ in the congregation, and at the close of
| the service he approached her, called
her by name and in moment the two
people who had been separated for
over thirty five years were
locked In each others embrace. They
! had saved some little money during
their separation, and purchased n farm
about six miles west of the city, and rs
they passed along together the ques-
tion as to whether they were ever le-
gally married was discussed and for
fear there might be some mistake they
concluded that the better way would
be TO secure license and have the
matter definitely settled. This they
did, and there was no happier couple
in all the world than James and Eliza
when the ceremony was done yester.
day. The record shows that he Is

Pennsylvania and Alabama iron.


In Mr.. Randall's Louisville speech
he eorrowfully mentioned the fact that
Alabams iron mills were sble 10 cell
iron in Philadelphia cheaper than
Pennsy lvaDiaDs could. II has been
asserted that his tour OF the South at
this time Is for the purpose OF winning
over the manu- ac'ureTs, miners aud
capitalists Of that region 70 q support of
the protective tariff. IL he can con-
vince the iron-men of Alabama, for in.
stance, that IL Is best for them to join
the Pennsylvania combination and
keep prices up, even though their mills
stand Idle two.thirds OF the year, he
will have accomplished u
great stroke Of policy for the
men whom he repre- ents. III, on the
other hand, the Alabama industry
concludes to stand on It's own bottom
aud advocate lowertarlif as means
OF crippling the Pennsylyanians, aud
thus removing that much domestic
competition, what will he DO about II?
