facturers the reception Of them and the
present whereabouts Of the originals
On behalf of the prosecution evil
dence was presented to show that
MIR Peck had destroyed at least a
portion Of the returns. To prove
this there was presented in evidence
the half-destroyed remnants Of
large numbers of blanks printed on
paper of a blush tint and containing
the written names and addresses of
manufacturers in the state. These
charred remnants also show that they
were issued under the seal of labor

Caught q Great Eagle.

p. Marker, who is working out at A.
FL. Smiths sawmill on Rife Creek, set a
large trap, thinking to catch a monster
bear, whose tracks were seen in the
noighborhood. Several days after he
went out to look at his trap, but instead
of the bearh he found large eagle, the
largest, perhaps, ever seen in the Rocky
Mountains. The eagle had been caught
in the powerful jaws of the trap by one
leg just above the claws. He had dragged
the immense trap, which was secured to
a log by chain, into some brush more
than twenty-f five feet from the spot where
trapped, and was dead. SO large and
strong was his leg that it was not broken.
The cagk was too large to carry, so the
trapper cut both legs of as trophies.
