TROUBLE IN COLORADO.
Sheep Owners and Cattlemen Suffering
at the Hands of the Ranchers.


DENVER, Colo, June 12.-Since last
April, when Lombard & Grant, of
American Forks, Utah, drove into the
plateau country in western Colorado,
1900 head Of sheep, followed soon
after by Grant & McClery, with
1900, trouble has arisen between the
sheepmen and the cattlemen and the
ranchers. On June 6 fifteen masked men
went to the camp on BuZzard creek,
held up and tied Mr.. Orson, a sheep
herder, killed by rifle and bombs about
300 head of sheep and scattered the
rest. They then got after Charles
Kirk, the foreman, and ran him a mile,
firing at him about twenty-five shots.
He fell off his horse in crossing Buzzard
creek and the horse went on down
to Eagle ranch, where it was caught.
What has become of Kirk is a mystery.
In addition 20 these affairs n number
of incendiary fires have occurred. The
residence of j. j. Brink, one of the
most prominent cattle owners in the
vicinity, has been burned as have the
barns of w. II. Iiannister, a big cattle
man. There is no question but that
these acts were of inccndiary nature.
Great i'll feeling prevails.

n COTTON CROP.
Cold Weather and Excessive Rains Retaro
the DEVELOPMENT OF the Plant.

W. SS'S'SF''S'h ~ wv 'etph
WASHINGTON, June 10.-The. returns
of the correspondents of the statistical
division of the department of agricult-
ure on June /, show that over a large
part of the cotton belt the termination
and development of the plants have
been retarded by cold weather and ex-
c~essive rain. the latter having also the
effect of r%etarding work and belating
the crop. In some localities dryness
prevented successful planting, and
much of the seed failed to come
up in consequence, and it is reported
that a second planting was to a consid-
cradle extent a failure. Along the
Mississippi and in the lowlands much
injury has been caused by overfiows.
In other localities carly planting is as.
signed as the cause of poor stands,
while no inconsiderable injury from
cut-worms, lice, etc, is also reported.
The prospect of a good crop in much
of the cotton territory, however, is
improving in consequence of more IA
vorable weather. The average condi-
ton of the crop is sc as compared
with s5.9 last year.

made to get GARNER to take Schaefer's

HE CHOKED A TIGER.
Donald Burns, of New York, a Man With a
Wonderful Crio,

WONDERFUL Grip.
lew YORK, June l2.-Donald Burns,
the Barnum Of Roosevelt street, says
he had a fight with a tiger in his store
at the foot of Roosevelt street. The
tiger, Mr.. Burns says, is a South
American beast, about 4 years old.
The brute was confined in a heavy
wooden box. about ; feet long and 3
wide. Mr.. Burns 17-year-old son
Jimmy started to feed the beast. In
the back of the box is a large door,
which slides from top to bottom the
entire width of the cage, Jimmy
edged the cage away TO get at the slid
ing door, and noticed a big monkey
named Jack chained to some cages
about seven feet away. When the box
had been moved the G a of il fronted
toward the monkey. Jimmy stopped
low, lifted the door and threw in the
meat. At the same instant the tiger
saw the monkey, leaped clear of the
cage, and sprang upon Jack. Mr..
Burns, sitting at his desk, was startled
by the tigers growi, and springing up,
started to save the monkey. Instantly
there was a mix. The tiger had the
monkey and Burns and his boy had the
pair. Burns grabbed the tiger by the
back and yelled to Jimmy to pull the
monkey away. So they pulled, the
monkey chartered, and the tiger
growled. 1t took a second or two for
Jimmy TO wrench the monkey away
from the tiger, but quick as a flash the
tiger turned upon Mr.. Burns. He
seized Burns right hand in his mouth
and dug his claws into Burns leg. His
fore paws held Burns right arm, but
Burns left arm was free, and with that
he seized the tiger by the throat and
choked the beast until his right hand
was released; then it was not long be.
fore he had the tiger powerless and
back in the cage. Then Burns wrapped
his hand in a bag and started for a
doctor

A MOUNTAIN OF GOLD.
Miners Sa1 Il Is the Richest Find Evsr Mad,
/, Am erica.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., June ia letter
Just received from Miners Delight gives
particulars of Il. G. Bartlett's discovery
in the South Pass, in Fremont county,
Wyoming. Experts say that there are
millions of gold in sight. The gold is
found in pottsdam cement, and Is the
largest and richest body Of this
mineral discovered, exciting in
richness the wonderful deposits
found at an early day in California. 1t
is free milling and cheaply worked.
The milling shows over ten dollars a
ton in gold. There is a mountain a
half mile long containing this material,
and miners say that this mountain was
once the bed of a mountain torrent. 1t
is considered by miners to be the largest
gold find ever discovered in the United
States. IL is $40 miles from the Union
Pacific railroad at Rawlins by stage
road. Another route, however, is be-
ing opened from Point of Rocks sta
ton. which is only seventy miles from
the camp. The snow is very deep on
the mountains and the camp cannot be
successfully reached for about two
weeks.

The Famous Priest Said to Have Retired
10 a Monastery. -

New YORK, June Q.-Notwithstand-
ing the many assertions that the Rev.
Edward McGlynn has sailed for Rome
In a%pocryphal steamers, it is known by
his closest friends that he is in retreat
in the Trappist monastery near Lex
ington, KY, and hat he will stay there
some time, probably all summer,
doing penance. DIR. McGlynn in
many of his Cooper Union lectures
declared he would never go to
Rome in sackcloth and ashes, and IL is
said that the retreat is in the nature of
a compromise suggested by Mgr. Satolli
and agreed to by DR.. McGlynn after
consultation with his friends. After
the retreat he will have been purged,
so that he may 20 to Rome. not as a
pcnitent seeking forgiveness, but rs a

Ducev says that the doctor has surely
gone to Rome, but he does not mention
day or date, the name of the steamer he
embarked inc Dr. the port he sailed from.

ALIENS LOSE INHERITANCE.
important Decision Rendered Relating to
the Recent Illinois Law.

'HipOtkduk OCSiSiOH ncnGSfCI NSldttUS "
the Recent Illinois Law.
BLOOMINGTON, H., June 1~2.-Judge
Upton, of the circuit court here, has
rendered a valuable opinion pertaining
to the "alien law" which recently be-
came operative in this state. Mark
Tully, deceased, left n large estate
here. lie left a wife, but no children.
He vas a native of Ireland, and his
brothers and sisters, subjects of Queen
Victoria, have children here who, un-
der former statutes of the state, would
inherit one-half of Tulley's estate, the
other half going to Tulley's widow.
Judge Upton decided that the alien
law, which prohibits aliens from buy
ing and owning land in Illinois, re-
pealed all other statutes on the subject
and left the common law in force, and
that neither aliens nor descendants of
aliens born in foreign countries can
take by inheritance Consequently
Mrs. Tulley takes the entire estate, and
the alien brothers and sisters and their
descendants get no portion of il. The
decision shows the Importance Of aliens
becoming n~aturalized when they can,
SO that their property may descend to
their heirs, otherwise it would escheat
to the state.

eeived his training in New York ward

gang that stuffed ballot boxes and de-
fed the courts and law officers. When
