and men when going into a fight was:
BE careful and do not unnecessarily K
pose yourselves" lie never subjected
his men to an order he did not observe
himself. and when on the march, mounted
as he usually was, on a mule aud wear
ing the SLOUGH hat Of a cav
airy officer. he was as UMPIRE
tcntious in manner and bearing
as the humblest trooper in his command.
In the 70 campaign when everything
looked blue and when with a small com
mani there lay before him an empire with
hosts Of well armed Indian warriors to
subdue a characteristic picture of him
was made BY Lieut. McCauley at
Fort Laramie. Gen. Crook with his
worn ovcrcoat and SLOUGH hat was sitting
alone On a little knoll whiting a piece OF
wood. The word passed around among
the boys, "a council Of war is on. The
general whitfield away for an hour or two,
came down into camp and in a few hours
later orders to move we're gwen and the
campaign was begun.
Famous as Crook was for his fighting
qualities he was equally famous tor his
tact in dealing with the Indians and he
prevented many Indian wars in the West
by his thorough knowledge of the Indian
character. He commanded the respect
aud enjoyed the confidence of the set
tiers and pioneers in the districts where he
had command and could always secure
cowboy scouts when he wanted them.
His personal interest in the West and
especially in Cheyenne was well known.
He it was who organized the pack trains
of the Western armies and he insisted
upon keeping up Camp Carlln and its
quota of packers, and that the place was
not abandoned years ago was due entirely
to him.

ceased under his able campaigning, and
this whole Western country owes him a
debt of gratitude which it will be hard to
repay.
Gen. Crook died March u, 1900, at his
rooms in the Grand Pacific hotel, Chicago.
He got up at 7 o'clock, apparently in his
usual health, took a cold bath and as was
his usual cns,Om exercised with Indian
.I-bs. He then laid down on the sofa to
rest and su ldcnly called to his wife, who
was in the next room: Mary | cant
breathe In a few moments he was
dead. Heat failure, due to hard service
in the field was the cause. He was 81
years old at the time of his death. When
he died the West lost one OF its best
friends and the movement to erect a
monument to his memory should have
the hearty aid of the entire West.

THE MYSTERY UNsoLvED.
Suicide the Probable Explanation OF
the DugOut Death.

the Dugout Death.
The mystery surrounding the identity
of the Dater ranch corpse is as far as
ever from being cleared up. The coroner
and c%oroner's jury nave had all their
theories and speculations dlspelled,
DR.. Wyman yesterday made an exam
nation OF the head OF the body, that he
had brought with him. aud found that
what he had taken to be bumps caused by
blows were natural bumps, or at least
were not made by blows heavy enough to
have produced death. How or why the
man died is not known, as the doctor was
nnahln tn find any evidence of foul play.
The coroner's jury will meet this after
noon and renders verdict that the death
vas Il case OF suicide.
The identity of the nan has not as yet
been established. There has been several
mysterious disappearauces from here
lately, but the description OF the missing
parties cannot be made to fit that OF the
dead man in all particulars. A stranger
named Alderman who registered from
New York disappeared from the Inter
Ocean about wo weeks ago. Alderman
left an old suit of clothes at the hotel,
and has not been heard from. As Acker-
man had an unpaid board bill at the
hotel, it might be hat his disappearance
was intentional on his part, Another
case was that Of a young mar who was in
town for a few days on his way to Grain
ger, Wyo. He LEFT, however, on the goth
of March, and the pieces of the newspa-
per found in the dead mans hat bore the
date OF April %.
Bill Phillips told the coroner Yesterday
that he had seen an Italian who answered
the description Of the dead man walking
along the track and begging at the
ranches. The Italian could not speak Eng
lish, so his begging was not very profitable.
He was seen about ten days or two weeks
ago, which time tallies very well with the
date OF the death of the unknown as fixed
by the doctor. All traces which might
lead to the identify of the dead man had
been destroyed, and the mystery is as far
from being unraveled as ever.

The nomination OF Mckinley as can
didate for governor OF Ohio by the Re
uublicans emphasizes the tariff as a cam
paiCn issue, say the Rock Springs Ind,
gsH1ni. Whatever tie feeling Is in
Ohio, the West is pretty thoroughly dis
gusted with high tariff. While 1t may
have benefited a few protected manuiac
turers it has impoverished the Western
farmers and increased the cost Of living
to the working classes without increasing
their wages. With Blaine aud reciprocity
the Republicans might win in 1892, but
We do not believe any candidate y strons
enough to win with the Mckinley bill and
high tariff as an issue. We should

g A Big Year for Fruit.

Fruit has not been SO plentiful and so
cheap for many seasons as it is this year.
For the past month the fruit stands have
been laden with large juicy Bartlett
pears and delicious, rosy peaches, and
now grapes are making their appearance.
All are unusually cheap, too, and the
demand is larger than it has been for
years. A leading Fulton street dealer
said the other day that he was reaping a
golden harvest this summer. elbow is
that?" I asked. "Ohp hereplied, ''fruit
is SO plentiful that can keep the prices
down; and so long as such splendid pears
and peaches and melons and plums as
these are cheap everybody who can
afford it is going to enjoy them. Last
year the poorer class of my customers
didn't get any fruit, nor did they the
year before. They couldn't afford to
buy it, and they wouldn't have done SO
If they could, for there was no fruit
worth having at any price. This year
there's any amount of it, and it's all
cheap. Everybody is hungry for fruit
after being denied it for such long
time, and consequently, as said before,
we dealers are reaping rich harvest" !"

however, and never got anything for

Mr.. Roberts--Well, If you want to or

Secretary and Manager Mitchell now
announced that another assessment OF

campaign expenses, and long -winded
debate ensued. Ernest Watts made
about fifteen minutes speech, the
most important one, advocating that

with no endorsement. After all the
kicks had subsided, the directory was

Cost Of Fi1tarinc Air.

filtered last winter at a cost of sixty
pounds for cotton wool, besides the two
or three hundred pounds originally spent
on the steam that worked the fans that
drove the air in. The layers of cotton
wool used were six feet thick, and had
to be changed three times, the outer lay
ers in q very short time becoming black
and full Of an oily and sooty substance,
with the smell of very'bad fog, though
the heaviest particles had been removed
by passing the air through water.
On one occasion the filter had to be re-

that time. This information was given

product and the extent of the working of
certain asphaltum and tin mines, most
