CHEYENNE, Wyo., June 1s.-The> wife
of q Crook county horse thief found her
husband hanging to a tree five miles
from home Tuesday, and sent to town
for the coroner.
The dead man is Hiram Waggoner,
and in three years he has accumulated a
fortune in money and a herd of 1900
horses by crooked work. He laid light
tribute judiciously on ranges in his vi
cinity, but his greatest profits were
made as agent for Montana and Dakota
wholesale thieves. On the 4th instant
three men came to the ranch with a
warrant for Wagner and took him
away. His wife, a woman up to snuff,
reported this at the county seat, and
said she believed Wagner was to be
hanged or shot. Learning that no war
rant had been issued, she began a
search. The man had evidently been
hanged the day he was arrested by the
trio.

Half a mile off, where had been the
thick of the fight, lay motionless on the
track, the corpse of his foe to death,
High Tariff. Tom Kiley, the gallant
beasts rider, twice a Derby victor on
that very course, had this time pushed
the limit of equine endurance. There
was a sudden plunge upward,

SPRING LAKE, N. j., June 20 -Delect-
i've Max Freeman, of Philadelphia, had
an exciting adventure Friday night, and
he is now IN bed suffering severely from
the effects of the injuries he received
while trying to capture a man supposed
to be Gideon Marsh, the fugitive presi-
dent OF the Keystone bank. Freeman
came here some days ago and stopped at
the Carlton house. He had received
word that Marsh had been seen in the
vicinity. and was in hiding at Como.

Freeman consulted with Constable Sex
ton, and the pair, in company with
Timothy Hurley, drove to the place
where it was believed the missing bank
president was in hiding.
They tied their horses a short distance
from the house and thu surrounded the
cottage. Sexton took a place on the
side Of the house nearest the road, while
his companions stealthily approached
the main entrance. They were about
to step on the porch when two men who
were in hiding on the step jumped and
fred at the officers. Freeman drew his
revolver and returned the fire. After
emptyiny their revolvers one Of the
unknown men approached the detective
from behind and gave him a terrible
blow with q blunt weapon. Freeman
fell to the ground unconscious. The
a%ssailants then took to their heels and
escaped to the woods. It was found
that Freeman was badly injured about
the hip, and there were several bad
gashes on his head.

UNDER THE LOTTERY LAW.
Several Real Estate Schemes Which Are
Held Illegal.

Several Real Estate Schemes Which Are
Hold illegal. #
WASHINGTON, June 19.-The solicitor
of the postofice department has made a
decision which is of Importance to real
estate improvement companies, real es-
tate dealers and newspapers throughout
the Northwest. The ~postofice depart
ment has found that a favorite scheme
of development companies, booming
new towns and suburban subdivisions
is to advertise the giving of one lot free
to each purchaser of a stipulated num-
Der of shares of stock of the company.
1t is decided that this plan is a lottery
and comes under the operation of the law
forbidding the use of the mails to all
newspapers, circulars or letters contain
ing any advertisement of a lottery
scheme. The p~ostofice department
holds that if a tract of land is divided
into lots of unequal value, and the lots
are sold to purchasers at a uniform
price and afterwards distributed or
apportioned among the purchasers by a
drawing, or by any other scheme of lot
or chance, and the title to each lot so
apportioned be conveyed to the pur-
chaser, the scheme is a lottery, and the
advertisement of it by circulars or news
papers would ronder the same unmaila-

STILL A DARK MYSTERY.

No Light Shed on the Fate of the Girl
Whose Skull Was Found at Minnesota.
CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., June 1S.-The
Butte county grand jury adjourned
without indicting anybody for the muir
der of the girl whose skull was found
near Minnesota some time ago.. The
case was not brought to the attention of
the body, no evidence sufficiently strong
to direct suspicion against any one hav-
ing yet been discovered. It was stated
in these dispatches some weeks ago that
Editor Dawley, of The Butte County
Star, had a clue as to who the murderer
was, but as yet he refuses to state who
the guilty person is. He says, however,
that there is no truth in the reports that
facts developed by his investigation
point to the guilt of a prominent citizen
of Spear6sh; to the contrary they direct
suspicion from any one in Speartish. and
incline in an entirely different direction.
More than this Mr.. Dawley refuses to
say at present, and the mystery remains
as complete as before.

front and set a merry pace down the
back stretch, Poet Scout still second
while Kingman and Strathneath, the
two favorites went back to the bunch. It
was at this point that the sensation of
the day took place. High Tariff, the
stake winner at Louisville, and ridden by
Kiley, had started sixth as the flag fell
and had been showed relentlessly
through the heavy going, notwithstand-
ing his 127 pounds weight. Kiley, by
sheer force of will, seemed determined to
make q showing ~equallng his past record
on the course and sufficient, if within hu-
man possibility, to again carry off the
laurels. Well lid the good animal re-
spond to Kiley's calls. He was visibly
gaining and had passed three competi-
tors when nature rebelled. An instant
later the feet racer wal a hopeless Grip
pie, foundering wildly in the mire, the
very caricature of his former self. Kiley
regretfully tried to check the poor wreck
aud at last succeeded, only a moment
later to feel the animal tremble and fall
in a heap. Kiley hastily extricated him
self, unhurt. Meanwhile the pace of the
others, never hating a hair
for the mishap, had been
getting hotter and hotter and the horses
swung into the stretch with Poet Scout
in front. Strathmeath second and Mich
ael third. Overton now began to ride
the firing leader desperately and for a
moment it looked as if he might
win, but Covlngton brought
Strathmeath by the outer
rails up with a rush, stealing the former
tactics of Kingman's rider and wos by an
open length without the use Of whip or
spur. Poet Scout was second at the half
length, before Kingman third, time

WAvERLY, Mimi, June 22.-Annie
Brunder, daughter of Jacob Brunder,
farmer who lives three miles east Of

parochial school in this village. Thurs
day afternoon as school was dismissed
she started for home, taking the rail-
road track, as was her custom, but she
did not reach the parental roof that
night. Nothing unusual was thought
OF tho matter at that time. as it was be-
lieved that she spent the night with
friends i'll town as she occasionally did.
The next night, however. when she did
not put in an appearance the parents
became uneasy and d search resulted in
finding her body with q handkerchief
tied about her mouth, her hands tod
behind her back and her legs tied to-
gether, lying in the woods midway be-
tween this village and Montrose. There
has been tramps lowering about in this
vicinity for about two weeks, and it is
believed that this is their work.
