Last Sunday the water was turned into
the Prineville Irrigation Co.'s ditch. and 1t
ditch had been ompleted-between six and
eight miles below town. It looked like an
oasis in desert, to see that grand artificial
stream vending its way through the sage.
brush and sand. and when we reflect that
this same desert can be made to .'blossom
and bloom as the rose, then we can form
some idea of the benefits that will accrue
from this company's enterprise.

Herald: Antelope has relay team that
would like to arrange contest race with
about six of the Fossil boys some time this
fall, the match to take place at either town.
This kind of a race is generally run with
six men on side and the distance three
hundred yards, Each side places its men
in line and fifty yards apart. Then the
two at one end are started evenly and they
run fifty yards and tap the next man on
their respective sides and that man bounds
off and taps the next one, and SO on till the
end. Whoever passes the line first at the
outcome wins the race for his side Thus
six races are run all in one contest. 1t
makes very interesting race and we would
like to run the Fossil boys for ''glory" or
"spondoolix."

Further Details OF the Missouri, Kansas
and Texas Hold-Up.
PARSONS, Kan, July 1s.-The Mis-
souri,, Kansas and Texas railway and
the Pacific express company have joint
ly offered a reward of S., 600 for the ar
rest and conviction of each of the men
engaged in the robbery of the express
car on the north bound train on the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas railway at
Adair station. in the Indian territory,
Thursday night, to an amount not ex-
ceeding $40, 000.
a large posse of men are now scour-
ing the Indian territory, and from adj
vices received here last night there is
good reason to believe that the robbers
will be captured.
The robbery was n of the boldest
that has ever occurred in the territory
and rivals any of the palmy days of
the James and Younger gang.
The bandits have been lettering in
the vicinity of the station at Adair for
several days and Thursday evening
weut to the depot and held up the sta
ton agent and robbed the safe of it's
contents. They captured the station
and waited about on the plat
form until the train came
AMI then deliberately went to
work to terrorizc the passengers
before they attempted to enter the ex-
press car Among the passengers were
Detective Kinney and several members
of the Indian police who are said to
have received notification of the fact
that the express train was to be
robbed. 1t is even said that this mott
t~ication was sent by the Daltons them
selves and in their note they defied the
power of the officials to stop them.
When the train came in the robbers
captured the engineer and then began
shooting along the train in order to
keep the passengers from poking tn cir
heads out of the windows.
After the shooting had been INDUCED
in for some time the men approached
the express car and notified the mes
senger hat they had placed dynamite
under it and would touch it off if he
did not open the door and let them in.
The messenger was further terrorized
by several shots from Winchesters
fired through the car, and sur
rendered. He was then compelled to
open the safe, and, after he had done
so, he was tied hand and foot and
bundled off into a corner of the car,
while the bandits helped themselves to
everything in sight. One of the band
backed a wagon to the car door and
everything was swept into it and
hauled off.
During this work two men were
guarding the train and a battle was
had with Kinney and LAHORE, in which
the two were slightly wounded. A
guard named Ward also received a
flesh wound in the shoulder.
That the robbers felt perfectly safe
in their work Is shown from the fact
that they proceeded SO leisurely at it
and when they had finished they drove
off through the woods, as if fearing no
pursuit.
1t is claimed that the big reward of
SIS, 900 each, will have the effect of
bringing about their capture but it
must be remembered that these men
belong to a gang which fights to the
death, and their capture is one of the
problematical things of the future.

PITTsBURG, Pa, July 1S.-The follow
ing notice was posted by the Carnegie
steel company at the Homestead mills
and in the vicinity of the works and
copies sent all over the country:
Notice-Individual applications for en-
ployment at the Homestead steel works
will be received by the general superin-
tend - either by letter or in person until 9
p. ursday, July 81, 1892.
1t is ourSdeSire to retain in our service
all of our employees whose past record is
satisfactory and who did not take part in
the attempts which have been made to inter-
ferc with our right to manage our business.
Such of our old employees as do not apply by
the time above named will be considered as
having no desire to r~e-enter our employ
ment and the positions which they held
will be given to other men, and those first
applying will have the choice of untitled
positions, for which they are suitable.
This notice Will be the last given to the
employees for the works and on ~non-compli-
ance with this the places will be filled with
n%On-union men.
That there are nOn-unlOn men in the
Homestead mill and more coming to-
day is evident from what Secretary
Lovejoy of the company said, when
asked how many non-union men were
in the mill: well, now really / can
not discuss the details of this question
and am not at liberty to tell you how
many men there are in the mills"
"Will you say how many men will
go up to-day or before you get ready
to start the mill?"
mo, l cannot. There a1e some
things the public has no right to
know and that is one of them. The
Homestead mills will be started up
July %, and the notice posted to-day
will be the last. The men at the
Beaver Falls and Union mills will be
given till Monday, July is, to return
to work under a new agreement. The
Union mills will be started Monday,
the 18th, and we will have no trouble
in getting competent men to fill the
places"
The Carnegie steel company has ad-
vertised for bids for furnishing mate
rails and building 100 houses on the
city farm lots at Munhall station.
These houses will be erected at once,
and will be for the use of the men en-
ployed in the mills.
One Of the leading officials of the
Carnegie steel company was found at
the general Office to-day, sorting over
a miscellaneous collection Of mail,
among which were many letters max
ing applications for positions in the
Homestead mills. Others expressed a
dissatisfaction with the strike and
were intended to square the writer's
with the firm when the trouble is over.
The men have prepared an answer
to part of Tricks testimony as to
wages, by which they show thatin the
open hearth department the men do
more work and are paid 81 a ton less
than in other mills.

GLADSTONE VIII Return To Power Under
Good Auspices.
LONDON, July 16.-At half past :
o'clock this afternoon the returns
show the election of 275 Conservatives,
As Liberal-U nionists, 262 Liberals, 81
anti Parnellites. 9 Parnellites and 3
Laborists. This gives the government
80 members and the opposition 33s.
There are still 90 members to be
elected and at the very best Gladstone
will have a majority of not over 40
behind him.
When Mr.. Gladstone again enters
the ministry it will be necessary for
him to resign his seat in the house of
commons and to again stand for cleo
ton. The Conservatives and Liberal
Unionists, encouraged by the enormous
reduction they made in his majority
Wednesday, think that when he again
appeals to the Midlothian electors
they will be able to defeat him.
