A Wonderful Cave.

William Douglas, who was down from
Mammoth Hot Springs last week, report
ed the recent exploration of cave .discov-
cred by himself and Walter S. Henderson,
some five years ago. It is situated about
a mile up the mountain from Bath lake,
and the exploring party travelled over a
quarter of a mile in examining the subter-
ranean cavern. The beauty Of the scenery
as presented to the gaze of the tourist was
simply indescribable and is but an open
ing to the world of wonders which will be
revealed by thorough exploration of
these underground terraces. Livingston

CATTLE AND SHEEP THRIVING.
Good Reports From the Ranges--A Large
Wool Clip

In reply to an inquiry relative to the
condition of stock and sheep on the
ranges, Mr.. T. E. Collins, president of
the First National Bank of Great Falls,
says: Cattle on the ranges are in splen-
did condition. The losses will not reach
one per cent and are no greater than those
under ordinary circumstances in the sum-
mer season. There are no losses among
the horses or sheep, and the outlook for a
large clip is good. The winter has been
very favorable for the cattle interest.
Cattle and sheep have been able every day
to procure abundance Of grass, and the
weather has been soft with the exception
of few weeks in January when the cold
was severe, but not extremely so. There
have been no billiards or severe storms.
Northern Montana will ship more cattle
than ever this year, and may count on an
of so per cent in the wool clip
from this region. The weather records
show that our climate corresponds this
season with that of northern Missouri or
southern Illinois Tribune.

BOUND FAST TO THE TRACK.
An Atrocious Attempt at Murder by Masked
Men Frustrated in Time.

Louisville special: A daring robbery
and attempt at an atrocious murder was
committed late last night on the Short
Line railroad trestle just out Of the city
limits. William NJ Bogartner, employed
in the Short Line shops, had received his
salary and started home. When near the
center of the trestle four masked men
emerged from the darkness, seized him
and demanded his money. He replied by
striking one of them with his fists, knock
ing him to his knees. The other two then
jumped on the victim and struck him sew
eral times about the head, and overpow-
cred him. They thrust a handkerchief
into his mouth, at the same time throw
ing him to the ground on the railroad
track. Several pieces of stout rope were
produced, and the four villains bound him
hand and foot SO tight that circulation
was impeded and permanent injury was
narrowly averted. After binding and
gagging Bogartner, the highWaymen de
liberately tied him across the track SO Sc
curely that escape was impossible. They
then took his money and overcoat and dis
appeared. The victim was nearly ex
hausted from the desperate struggle, and
was suffering intensely from the blows on
the head He could make no outcry. The
place was lonely one, and the cold winds
were piercing. Bogartner knew that the
Lexington train was due in O very few
minutes, and that unless he was accident
ally discovered before its arrival he had
but few minutes to live He strained ev-
cry nerve to break loose, but in vain. lie
heard the jumble Of the train in the dis
tance and gave himself up for lost But
suddenly he heard footstep approaching,
and Albert Wallace, yardman, came up.
He quickly cut the ropes and dragged the
insensible man to one side just one min
ute before the train passed. Bogartner
did not recognize his assallants, and no
one has been arrested as yet.
