Some Foolish People At Shoshone.


Shoshone Journal.
A short time ago some fellow
came along here with cock and
bull story about a large jewelry
house in Dubuque, Iowa, being
ribbed of about $4,000 worth Of
d diamonds and jewelry; that the
robbers finding themselves pursued
by detectives concluded to bury
their plumber and that they did
bury it near the pump house in
Shoshone; that one Of the robbers
recently died and, on his death bed,
ated where the jewelry and dia-
nonds were concealed, and located
the spot about forty feet east of the
old dug out near the pump house.
Several of our enterprising citizens
bit at the bait and with shovels,
picks and scrapers began a system
attic search for the hidden treasure.
The ground in the vicinity of the
pump house has been honey
combed and the numerous pros.
pect holes remind one Of a new
mining camp. But up to date no
one has found the plender.

Down in the big state of Texas a

steer to hold him, but when the
steer lowered his head, curled his
tail in the air and began to run and
below, the farmer yelled to every
one by the road side, "for Gods
sake head us - fools off," The
republicans of Idaho, like the
Texas farmer, are beginning to
yell to one another to head off the

HUNTINGTON. W. Va. Aug. 15-Yes-
terday morning about $50 O'clock, the
powder factory in the Ohio river at
Kellogg, W. Va, four miles below
Huntington, blew up from some I'M
known cause. The explosion was in
the glazing mill building which was
about twenty-five feet square and two
stories high. There were about two
tons of powder in it The main mill
building and in which great quantities
of powder are stored was not affected
The noise of the explosion was heard
twenty-five miles away and its force
was so great as to literally annihilate
the building. Pieces of timber were
thrown across the river in Ohio. A
piece of iron weighing over q ton was
picked up and tossed through the air
800 yards and buried deep in the
ground.
Workmen were Just going to work in
the large mill but had not yet entered
it In the glazing mill at the time of
the explosion were two workmen, John
Bayless and Timothy Cooney.
Only unacceptable fragments of
their bodies can be found, and two
buckets full of shreds of human flesh
have been gathered
George Wells, who was in house
800 yards away, had his skull broken
by a fragment of iron which whirled
through the window of the house. He
is in dying condition. D. NJ. Parks,
Charles knowly and John Shauster,
workmen in the big mill. who were
standing 400 yards away. were terribly
injured by flying missiles that black
ened the air. A few others are slightly
hurt
What caused the explosion no one is
living that can tell More than 1000
people have been drawn by curiosity
to the scene. Archie Livingston. the
superintendent, was standing right by
the mill when it was blown to atoms
and he escaped unscathed The family
of John W. Bayless, one of the victims,
is inconsolable. One of his daughters
is at the point of death from grief.
