IT'S THE RIGHT ROUTE.
A. to the Line which Mr.. uiIr- Road
Talks for Taking.

Special CORRESPONDENCE Of the Standard.
BITE, March 1.-The dispatch from ~.
Paul printed i'm the STANDARD this morn
ing relativ" la the proposed extension of
the Great Northern road westward
through Anaconda was read with great
interest here to-day. James A.. Murray,
who has spent ~ years i'm the country
through which the road will probably h,
built, and who knows il like "A book. said
to-day: "Thc distance from New York to
San Francisco would bc no
greater 10y this line than 10y any
other. and the excellence of the Mani
tobias road-bed would make faster time
possible than by any other route. Ac-
cording to my knowledge of the country
the most practicable route would he from
Anaconda up Warm Spring creek To Sill
yer lake: thence tn Ross Hole "a; the
head of the Bitter Root; thence down Sal
mon river a distance of loo miles; thence
leaving Salmon river OH Tho north. and
running through Idaho To- Boise City;
thence rouU the Owyhee country To-
the Quinzc River valley. This valley il
one of the most beautiful and fertile val
leys in America. Tlie-routc would prulpa-
bly, be along Quinzc river about 15 miles
and on to Reno. thence tn Sacramento,
Stockton and Oakland. Along this line
there are more gold mines than i'm any
other section of country i'm America. Be-
tween Salmon river and Old Ecntuck
tire are not less than 30 gold mines. All
the way from Anaconda To Boise City are
mines which only need an cgrs'ss Ia make
them most profitable."

AT THE BURNING NINE.
a Slight Hope Raised That the Impris-
oned Men Are Alive.

DUNBAR, Pa, June l7.-All night long the
rescuing parties remained Mt the mouth of the
manhole of the Farm Hill mine but their
efforts to help the unfortunate men entombed
in the burning mine were fruitlcss. The
sights about the pits mouth are all the more
pitiable because of the twenty-four hours an
guish that has rolled over the heads of the
relatives and friends of the entombed miners,
and hundreds stand steadily at the
mouth gazing at the columns Of
smoke, that grow thicker hour by
hour. The indications are that the
coal is now burning instead of timber and
roofing. The mine inspector is making siren
uous efforts to enter from the Mahoney
drifts. An air fan to furnish ventilation to
the mine will be put in operation this after
noon in the Ferguson pit as work will also be
commenced there The mine is so located
that flooding the fire is impossible and smoth-
crng it means certain death TO the men
below, providing they are living. Nearly all
the mines of this region are closed down, and
men, money and provisions are pouring in on
every train. a slight hope was raised at
noon by The return of one of the rcscuing
party, who reported that far down in the
slope he heard a mule braying This leads to
the belief that the men may yet be living.

GOODLY LAND.
The Black Hills Empire and the City
nFIInf

OF ltOt springs
Hot SPRINGS, S. D., June 17-TSpecial
to TIE BEE. - Lieutenant Frederick
Schwatka, the great Arctic explorer, fingered
at the Springs for several days and left yes
terday for Chicago He was much impressed
with the resources and surroundings of the
town and in fact thinks the Black Hills
country an empire in itself. Fall River the
southwest county of South Dakota is un-
doubtedly one of the best counties in the
state and the census returns will show
larger increase, both in population and devel-
opment, than any other county in the Da-
kOtas. Fall River county is bounded by Ne
brasl1a on the south, Wyoming on the west,
Custer county on the north, and the Sioux
reservation on the cast, and contains 1916
square miles, four-fifths OF which is fine agri-
cultural and grazing lands The agricultural
lands are of unequalled fertility and the
grazing lands will support thousands of head
of stock the year around with but little
trouble to the owner, as the southern hills
excel as winter range.
This country is naturally tributary to
Omaha as the Fremont, EllihOrn Il Missouri
Valley and B. u M. roads both run entirely
through the county from south to north and
will both have lines into Hot Springs within
the next two months. Omaha should pay
more attention to the trade of this country
and especially the southern portion of the
Black Hills. Lincoln and Sioux City are
both in the field for the trade and are repre-
sented by good men who are located here.
Hot Springs is certainly destined to become
the great distributing point for an immense
trade and that in the near future
Crops in the southern hills and northern
Nebraska are in a splendid condition and
never looked better at this time of year. n
bouutiful harvest is now almost assured.

wilcox Visited by a Big storm.

WILCOX, Neb,, June 17.-[Specal to TIE
BEE. This section was visited last night by
the heaviest rain of the season. An enormous
amount of water fell and this morning there
are ponds in every direction. Crops have
been injured by the drouth, but we are sure
now Of getting fair amount at least of small
grain. About IL o'clock the two-story brick
building of Hyatt & Kennedy was badly
racked, part of the roof was blown off and the
front wall badly bulged.
The windmill of the b. & NJ railroad was
torn to pieces and several other windmills in
the town are wrecked and several small build
ings overturned. The damage to the town is
probably $1,000. The damage on Hyatt &
Kennedy's brick building is fully covered by
tornado insurance.
Some of our citizens were circulating sub
scription lists on Saturday for the benefit of
the Bradshaw cyclone sufferers. We are
very thankful this morning that we do not
have to ask for help ourselves. 1t certainly
looked for IA few minutes as though the Brad
shaw disaster was to be repeated.
