were of no avail, and she went down in
from eight to ten feet of water. All of the
crew escaped safely. Although snbmers-
ed in such a small depth of water it is not
thought possible to save her. The ma
chinery will probably be saved.
There Is sort of shoal near Painted
Woods which has always been dangerous
for the safe passage of STEAMBOATS,. The
Fly Bachelor, on her recent trip down
river. ran upon snag at the same place
and turned clear around, although no per-
manent damage to the boat was done.
The principal owners Of the boat, the
Mandan Roller Mill company, Ira W..
Bellows and II. r. Lyon. will Immediately
start upon the construction OF another
boat, better suited to the purposes OF the
river trade than was the Abner. The
steamboat and cargo will be a total loss,
there being no insurance on either.

A steamboat sunk.

Bismarck Tribune: Sunday noon as the
steamer Abner O'Neil was coming down
from up river points with q cargo OF near
~ 5000 bushels of wheat on board, she
struck q snag opposite Adams house near
Painted Woods, and speedily sank. The
particulars OF the accident, as nearly
as can be learned, are as fellows:
As the steamer was blowing her way
through the channel shock was felt by
those on board which was at first thought
to result from the striking OF the wheel
on some unimportant snag. Upon inves'
tigation, however, in was discovered that
the snag had made an immense hole IN
the bottom Of the boat, which was rapidly
filling with water. Tarpaulins were
placed over the opening and part OF the
cargo was thrown overheard In an en-
deavor to tighten her, but these efforts

A Large Cargo OF Wool is Consigned
to the Rosebud for the East
erM Market.
Freight Rates Given OH the Load
Which are Away Below the
Railroads.
L. H. Bailey's Political Statistics
Items of Local Interest for
the Week.

The steamer Rosebud arrived from
Sioux City yesterday and loaded on some
$4,000 pounds of wool, besides a great
quantity of hides, which handsome cargo
she will deliver at Sioux City for shipment
to New York. This wool has been brought
from all points in the surrounding conn
try, in some cases as far away as seventy
five miles. the principal shippers being as
follows: w. I. Walker $4,000 pounds;
Clough, Ledwich Il Co. 1000; a. Erb
$500; r. b. Towle $500; Thos. Medley
1900; w. L. Skunk 1000; while among
lesser shippers were Chas. Shatfncr, Sam
Strayer. lLevi McGee j. II. Dusenbery
and others, with quantities variously
running from 500 pounds to 2,oo0.
The above facts become more important
when.we 90 back to the circumstances
which made them. 1t has been developed
by this incident that all up river points
like Pierre are enabled to ship produce by
river to Sioux City at an immense saving
over rates given by the railroads entering
the state and touching at river points.
Going into the facts in this case, we find
that the rate made by the Northwestern
road to New York direct from Pierre was
sl63 per 100 pounds, while by river, via
Sioux City, the shipper gets rate OF sl.l5,
thus making saving OF 4s cents on every
100 pounds.
When some OF our largest wool growers
this season were preparing for their ship
ments they had no other thought than
that they would send their freight Out
over the railroad. They asked for the
best rate, but found that the road insisted
on tackinz on Al cents, the local rate frou
Pierre to Huron. after which the tarlt
would be sl22. 1t was then that the ship
,pers, mainly through the efforts of Adolpi
Ewert. made arrangements to send TIT
wool down the river on the Rosebud, in
stead of paying the exorbitant rate asked
by the railway to haul the freight to tn
first competing point, which was Huron
They did no. try the boat people unit

Give. Better Inducements.

Huronite: Fred LaPlant, Lester Mar
rington and w. p. Barton, OF Fort Pierre.
were in the city yesterday. These gem
tlepcn are ranchmen on the Sioux reser-
walton where they have large herds. They
had been to Chamberlain arranging to
ship their stock to Chicago and other
eastern markets. To Huronite repre-
sentative Mr.. Barton said:
1--WE have between 1000 and $500 head
of cattle ready for shipment. Some in
ducements are held out for us to drive our
stock to Chamberlain and ship from there
instead OF Pierre as heretofore, but have
not yet decided what we will do. The
drive would be little longer but there is
good grazing all the way. The shipping
season is little earlier than usual for the
reason that feed has been so abundant.
Last winter was not severe on stock in
our part OF the reservation-they came
through in fine condition. Those ready
for shipment are exceptionally fine cattle,
better than those shipped at any time In
the past four or five years. We expect to
reach market with them in advance OF the
Montana run. Shipments will begin
about the first of August and continue
until the first of December. There will
be more and better cattle shipped from
ranches on the Sioux reservation and in
the Black Hills than during any previous
season. Horses will also be numerous
probably 1900 head will go east from oul
vicinity this season. Most OF them are
good animals: not large Tut we'll built fol
road and farm purposes. From preSen'
indications ranchmen will make some
money this year.

SEEING WITH ONE EYE.
Effece OF Judgment Ira ined by Binoculsi
Vision.

Vision.
A person may see as far with one per
feet eye as with two, but he cannot See
as clearly; for the advantage that bi-
nocular. or double, vision possesses over
monocular, or one-eyed, vision is that
the former, by allowing the observer
10 catch sight of the object from two
different points of view, gives him at
once some idea of the proportions of its
different parts
But though this Is true in theory,
in practice the Judgment interferes, and
the Judgment has been educated and in
some measure rendered independent OF
the services of binocular vision by ex-
perience and the use of other senses,
such as touch, says the Washington
Post
Thus a man with only one eye is
never deceived as TO the nature of an
object with which he is well acquaint-
ed, for the report of it that he gets
from his vision is corrected and supple
mented by his experienced Judgment
and transmitted to his centers of con-
sciousness in as perfect form as tina
which reaches those of a man with two
eyes
The advantage of binocular vision
may be thus further illustrated: In
rapidly dipping pen into an inkstand
or putting a stopper into decanter the
oneeyed man cannot judge so accurate
" as the two-eyed man. Or, again, if
we shut one eye and attempt to plunge
the finger rapidly into the open mouth
of bottle we are apt to overreach or
fan short of IL
