Forepaugh,s Big Show.

The Denver Republican says of the per
Torrance at Denver: "From the mayor
to the urchin who squirmed under the
canvas everyone went away pleased with
the shows last night. There we're some
people who were not satisfied because
their anatomy was not like that of Argus.
There seemed to be SO many good things
that they we're bound to miss some OF
them. There were some daring eques-
triennes, remarkable shooting and daring
scenes. Chief among these specialties
was the performance of the Hanlon-Vol DIT
ers, the famous aerialists who, having
plenty of space and heighth under the
canvas. gave a better exhibition than ever
attempted when they were in Theatrical
grade. The same may be said of Zazel
in her daring leap. The various races
we're very exciting and as real as those Of
ten witnessed on the race track. The
Roman chariot race between Miss Dunn
and Miss Watson, each of whom drives
Tour horses abreast, sent the whole house
on its feet with excitement. 1t was q
great race. Despite the untoward Gle.
ments there was a very good attendance.

PnMLlPsBURG, Mont, Aug. 49,
john H. Price, a miner of this town,
enjoys the distinction of being the only
member of the human race, so far as
known to medical science, who has
yearly recurrent desquamative erythema
scarlitiniform." In other words, he sheds
his skin annually like a snake.
Price has been afflicted with this pecu-
liar disease since the first day of his life,
but it never occurred to him or any one
else until recently that it was a blessing in
disguise, or that he would owe to it any
great measure OF happiness. Such, how
ever, is the case, and therein lies a 70.
nance.
A year ago Price underwent his annual
change OF epidermis at st. Elizabeth's
hospital, Chicago. The case was closely
observed by Chicago specialists in skin
diseases, and got INTO the papers. The
story was read BY a Nebraska schoolmis.
tress. TO whom it proved of special inter
est.
Some years ago Price had a sweetheart.
An arrangement took place. Price came
out to Montana, and his former sweet
heart moved to another locality. They
lost track OF each other entirely untiLshe
read the story of the man at st. Eliza
beth's hospital. and recognized in the
patient her former lover.
The young woman lost no time in fol-
lowing up the clew to the whereabouts of
her former sweetheart. She wrote him
and received a reply. Other letters passed
between them. the old engagement was
renewed, and a quiet wedding followed.
This is how Mr.. PRICES curious affection
has proved for him a blessing in disguise.
Mr.. Price promised to go to Chicago
this year, but failed to do so. His expert
ence of 1890 was repeated here, however;
the old skin disappeared and the new
flesh covering came in precisely the same
manner that so puzzled the doctors of

USED A B%LACKSNAKE.
Sensational Scene in a Chicago
Court Room.
Mrs. Edward Mcmahon Horse

The Row Occurs Over the
Possession of a Child.

CHICAGO, Aug. lS.-Today in a
crowded court room, Mrs. Edward Nc
Mahon horsewhipped a millionaire and
his lawyer and then tainted in her hus'
bands arms. The millionaire was Peter
Smith, a contractor, and the lawyer was
P. McHugh. The cause of the assault
was the reading of a deposition by n Can
adam detective i%mpugniug Mrs. Nc
Mahon's chastity. The horsewhipping is
the climax of a series OF sensations grow
Ing out OF a long standing family quarrel.
McMahou's marriage some months ago TO
his second wife, who created the sensation
today, was very displeasing to her mother
and sister-the latter the wife OF Million
aire Smith. McMahon's son had a for
tune of $50, 900. 1t was asserted that
the step mothers chief object in marry
ing MoMahon was to obtain possession of
this sum Mcmahon and his wife on one
side and his mother, sister and Smith on
the other had charged each other with
attempting little Millions THE son's)
death by poison to prevent the opposing
parties securing his custody. The Cana
dian deposition was read in further
ancc Of the legal fight by
the Smith faction. Shortly after
entering Judge Kohlsaat's court room to-
day, Mrs. McMahon walked quickly to
where Smith and McHugh were sitting.
and with a blacksnake whip before the as
tonished spectators or the bailiffs could
interfere, slashed Smith and McHugh re-
peatedlv across the face aud neck. Judge
Kohlstaat took no action in the matter,
and intimated the child will not be given

AN ATTEMPT AT MURDER.
A FrightfuI Crime Attempted Bv I'M
known Parties in Converse CouRty.

DOuBlhS GEapuiC.l
A cold blooded attempt to kill three oil
four persons was made recently nea,
Upper La Prele.
1t seems that Walter s. Hilands ha:
some $500 sheep grazing between La
Prele and Box Elder creeks. The sheer
herders. it appears, have a wagon fitted
up with a broad canvas top, and in this
they have a stove, and cook, eat and
sleep.
During the day and night they herd
the bands of sheep near the camp, not
letting them get more than a mile or two
away. In the morning they frequently
all go away, leaving the camp unguarded,
and towards moor or night one of them
will return and get dinner or supper for
the others, as the case may be.
On this particular day one of them re-
turned to the camp and found that some
one had bcen there and stolen a lot OF
provisions and a fine Winchester rifle. He
noticed that the supplies had been scat
tered around somewhat. He put some
wood IN the stove and lighted n fire, and
for some reason that he cannot explain
happened to go u and sit down on the
end of the wagon tongue. The stove
stood in the front end of the wagon. In
a few moments there was a terrific cxplo-
sion, and pieces of stove, dishes, wagon
cover, etc, were flying through the air.
A subsequent investigation revealed the
fact that some party or parties had been
there and taken a can Of two and a hall
pounds of powder that was in the wagon
and placed it in the stove under the back
covers where it could not be seen when
ki~ndling\the fire and If the herder had not
accidentally one out of the wagon the
moment he lighted the fire he would have
been blown to atoms.
In the jockey box of the wagon was an
ounce bottle of %strychnine that the herders
had to poison coyotes. This was noticed
to be empty and an examination showed
that strychnine had been scattered through
the sugar, flour. coffee and everything in
the camp. Even the cooking utensils
were sprinkled with it.
vi course everything eatable in the
camp had to be destroyed. The actual
loss to Mr.. Hilands was only about $50.
That is bad business. 1t grew out OF
prejudice against sheepmen, it is pre-.
sumed, but the herders are moi TO blame
for the sheep being in the country. They
are simply working for wages, the same
as cowpunchers, miners, or L other
laborers, 1t is simply a chance that at
least two men were not killed instantly.

sIavin and His Tormenrors.

LONDON. Aug. IS.-Slavin is talking
pretty loud nowadays. IT Sullivan's
friends think the Australian has any hesi-
tation about accepting the challenge they
are mistaken. He told me he was willing
to fight any man in the world, Sullivan
preferred. At daybreak this morning l
saw Slavin in a Maiden lane drinking re-
sort facing three well known bookmakers,
who were drunk and trying to pick a fight
with him. | never saw such self control.
He looked like a lion tantaiized by cats.
His tormentors called him every nam
calculated to stir q mans blood. Come
on. you big, blowing coward" screamed
one bookmaker, dancing in front of Slavin
and waving his fist under his nose. Come
on you thief, you blowhard, you sneak,
~windbag; come on and strike me if you
dare. You're afraid to. You know
I'll lay you out" The next minute
Slavin put his hands behind his back,
held his head down and SAID: IF YOU
want to hit me go ahead. 1t will make
you -" The three bookmakers hus-
tied Slayin around the room. One
actually pushed him down on the floor,
but the Hercules refused to strike. You
know you're a lot of whiffets and | could
push my had through your faces, but it
would advertise you. That's what you
are after. It's a put-up job. l Dever
strike a man who isn't a fighter; but if
you want to see me fight bring me the
best man you can find and I'll lick him,
SO help me God, and don't you forget it,
whether he comes from England or Amer
ica." For a full hour Slavin stood the
attack without defending himself. Then
he opened the hoodgates OF sporting rhe-
toric. Such queer oatbs were never
heard before.

America Can supply the world.

PARIS, Aug. lS.-If the American
farmer knows how to seize tie opportun-
ity his money bags this year will be
filed to bursting. Rarely has an oppor-
tunity more golden laid within his grasp
than is now held forth by the condition
OF the crops of Europe. This was the
impression received from a conversation
with William D.. Washburn of Minneap-
oils, who has, during an extended tour of
Europe, collected information from
strictly reliable sources regarding the
condition of crops. Mr.. Washburn saws
the prospect is that there will be a sur
plus of 200, 0U0, 000l bushels:of wheat in
the states. To all appearances Europe
would want every grain OF it. He said:
After a trip to North Cape | went
from Stockholm to st. Petersburg,
through Russia to Moscow. with a view
to ascertaining BY personal observation
and inquiry the real condition of the
crops. Wheat, rye and small grain in
Russia are, if not absolutely a failure, the
next thing to it. In fact. they are so
short the government has been obliged
to take steps to prevent expectation.
That this is a grave condition of things is
evident from the fact that the Muscovite
is not IN the habit OF doing anything until
trouble Is right upon him. The ukase
just published t%orbiddipg expectation of
rye is a mere measure of self-prptection,
even of self preservation. There is abso-
lutelY no ground tor the statement made
by the Berlin press that hostility to Ger
many was the reason ofthe ukase. Owing
to the ukase great anxiety prevails in
Norway and Sweden. which depend for
bread upon the rye from Russia. Nor
way and Sweden will have to import
wheat from the states. From Russia
| went to Buda-P esth, which Is the
largest milling center in the world
after Minneapolis; then to Vienna. All
the authorities l consulted were unani-
nous in stating that the crops of Austro-
hungary are 30 per cent less this year
han last. In Germany the shortage is
less, and probably will not exceed Is per
cent. With respect to France | have not
yet been able to obtain reliable official in
formation, but | understand it will be
safe TO say this country will have to i'm
port about half its consumption. | don't
think the short crops in Europe will result
in anv great corner in the States, but |
believe it will create a tendency among
w ~ nOiu tucii Oiops. IL my uluu
it will not be possible to organize such a
general plan of campaign as was suggested
in the wheat circulars sent out by the
Farmers Alliance people, but the effect
of those circulars will undoubtedly be to
teach growers not to pile their wheat on
the market as they have hitherto done"
rs there any chance of a bread
famine2'
well, the crops in the states were
never so large as this year, especially In
wheat, and | think we can take care of
the rest of the world. OF course the rest
of the world will have to pay"
Mr.. Washburn. accompanied BY his
wife and daughter, is staying at the Hotel
Meurice. He sails Wednesday from South
hampton. having been abroad since
April. He spent five weeks in Carlsbad,
but the part of his tour he enjoyed most
was a trip to North Cape.
