HUNDREDS PULL OUT
DENVER SENDING MEN BACK EAST
No More Outbreaks Are Feared, as the
Unemployed Are Quiet-Missouri
Refuse Unemployed.

DENVER, July 2o-The city was quiet
all day and the expected outbreak
among the unemployed did not occur.
There were no signs OF agitation today,
although the superintendent of the
Union Pacific railway petitioued the
city county and state authorities to
afford his road protection against
crowds desiring of going east. The
company is willing 10 carry moderate
amount of persons, but objects to haul
ing train loads. No action was taken
by the authorities.
One thousand persons were fed today
at Camp Relief. About 500 left on diff
ferent roads. At meeting of the re-
lief committee tonight 1t was resolved
to discontinue Camp .Relief next Thurs
day. 1t was also resolved by the trans
portation committee not TO issue any
further tickets to those desiring to go
east, but beginning Monday those going
will have to pay full fare. The above
action was caused by the decision of the
city council to begin at once public i'm
provements.

A BIG SILVER RALLY
MOSCOW FAvsRs THE WHITE METAL
Latah County timetable League Members
Listen to an Eloquent Address by
Hon. j. w. Reed.

Moscow, July 29.-The silver rally of
the Latah County Bimetallic League of
this city this afternoon was attended
by about 1000 of the representative
citizens, every precinct in the county
being represented, plainly demonstrat-
ing that the friends of silver are alert
and anxious 10 contribute in interest
and enthusiasm to the strength of free
silver advocates.
After an appropriate Introductory
speech by President Pickett Hon. j. w.
Reed, of Lewiston, delivered an elo.
quent address in favor of tie white
metal, which was frequently greeted
with applause and cheers. He didn't
believe in threatening congress with
bloodshed and rebellion if feee silver
coinage is not adopted, but advised all
the friends of silver TO stand together
in a fair and honest contest that in his
opinion will eventually end in bimetall-
ism and the general elevation of the
present financial stringency. Silver,
DelnS tue Sldhudtu monSy u tue SoF-
eminent by constitutional enactment,
made so by such forefathers as Wash
ington and Jefferson, must certainly be
maintained, and he didn't believe more
modern statesmen with gold-bug in
fuence were capable of better judg'
ment. With silver we have had pros
perity, and why not protect ii!
Ten delegates were chosen to attend
the state silver convention at Ketcnum

MURDERED HIS WIFE.
John Hanson Confesses to a Deliberate
Assassination.

John Hanson Confesses to Deliberate
Assassination.
ASTORIA, Or, July 29.-John Hansen
confessed this afternoon to the murder
of his wife at Bear creek, six miles
from this city, last Wednesday. He
acknowledged that he committed the
crime in order to secure some money
which she had under lock and key. He
took the keys from the pocket of the
dead woman and proceeded to rife the
bureau drawers. Not finding the
money as he expected, he called John
Myland, a laborer to the place, and
told him his wife had been killed. Han
sen says the weapon used by him in
committing the crime was club, and
not an axe, as was supposed. His de-
meanor up to 3 O'Clock this morning
was phenomenally cool and emotion
less, and he betrayed no evidence of be-
ing affected, except when at the inter
ment he heard clods falling on the
coffin of his murdered wife.

We're Not Permitted to stay.

KANSAS CITY, Mos, July 29.-The chief
of police with large force of men went
to the state line TO meet train load of
800 unemployed men from Colorado,
who left Denver last night over the
Union Pacific. This action was taken
under late state law forbidding rail
way companies bringing in paupers.
The chief is of the opinion that the
men on the train were tramps trading
on the misfortunes OF the working men.
When the train, consisting of five box
cars, reached the state line it was
stopped. The inmates were in rather
an ugly frame of mind and made some
threats, but resistance was hopeless in
the face of the force against them. The
men finally agreed not to stop in Kan
sas City and the train was allowed to
proceed to the Union depot. After dis
embarking the men soon scattered,
some going east and others south.

A BRAVE CONDUCTOR
HE BOLDLY CAPTURES A RoBeER
An Unsuccessful Attempt to Hold Up the
San Antonio & Arkansas Pass
Passenger Train.

The boldest attempt at train robbery
that ever occurred in Texas was made
the other day near the little village of
Breckenridge. The train held up was
the San Antonio s. Arkansas Pass pas
senger. F.. E. Martin, the fireman, was
killed, and one of the robbers, who gives
his name as J. d. May cowboy, was
captured.
The train was in charge of Conductor
Ed Steele, Engineer Mike Tierney and
Fireman Martin, all of San Antonio. 1t
consisted of three day coaches, express
car and combination baggage and mail
car. At Breckenridge the train stopped
to take water, and as it started three
men boarded the blind baggage car
platform. The engine had just entered
a sharp curve a few hundred yards
from the tank when Robber May climbed
up on to the tender and with a pistol
in each hand told the engineer and fire
man to throw up their hands. Tierney
threw up his hands, but Martin made
movement as though to secure pistol.
The robber emptied one six-shooter into
Martins body, keeping Tierney covered
all the time with the other pistol.
Martin fell dead and his body rolled out
upon the track where it was run over.
The other two robbers jumped from the
baggage car and made for the brush.
There were only two passengers on
/ -. ID arpnaH with n
six-shooter. When they heard the ir-
ing they rushed upon the platform and
as the two robbers ran into the brush
volley was fired after them. The en-
gineer then put on the brakes and with
a parting shot at him the robber jumped
from the engine and started up the
track.
Conductor Steele rushed to the engine
and cutting loose from the train, start
ed with Messenger Butler and Engineer
Tierney in pursuit, gaining every mo-
ment on the robber who would turn and
fire as he ran. Finding that he could
not reach the bridge where his rifle and
three pals await him, the robber left
the track. The engine was stopped ana
Conductor Steele chased him into the
brush, firing as he went. The three
robbers at the bridge with rifles com.
menced firing at the conductor, and
their volleys were returned by the en-
r gineer and messenger. Conductor
Steele overhauled the robber he was
after and disarmed him. The robbers
at the bridge disappeared. The United
States marshal and posse of deputies
are in pursuit.
]. D. May, the man who was captured
refuses to make any statement further
than it was the intention of the band
to rob the express car and the passen
gers. Conductor Steele will receive
r 81 900 standing reward from the state
+ for the capture of train robbers.

Nen PROCESS for Saving cold.

An engineer of experience thinks the
process of ''burlap rockers" will save a
large percentage of the -four gold in the
sandbars of Snake river. He says; The
burlap process is as simple as it is
novel. In the bottom of an ordinary
rocker an ordinary burlap is placed.
The gravel and sand is thrown upon
what is called ''grizley," a big iron
sieve, the larger pieces of rock being
washed to one side, the finer particles
falling into the rocker. The -four gold
falls into the meshes of the sack. Every
day or so the burlap is washed in a tub
of clear water and the fine particles of
the gold are thus secured. Sluices are
used but little, owing to the scarcity of
water, but the same process is adopted
as in the case of the rockers. Burlaps
are laid along the bottom of the boxes
and the dirt is washed over them. The
shining yellow sand settles on the sacks
and is secured by the washtub method.
The scarcity of water is one great
drawback, the richest bars being the
greatest distance from the river.

a Journey of varied Intares+

The tourist via the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad, fThe Picturesque Route'' from
Chicago to Baltimore, PHILADELPHIA and
New York, via Washington, is RECALLED
with views of most varied and beautiful
scenery. From the windows of the COM
Portable day coaches and luxurious Pull
man cars the traveller is enchanted with
panorama of plains, valleys, hills, noun
tains, and streams. Now you are flying
past a hamlet on the mountain side.
Again you find yourself rolling into one
of the midland cities, or past the historic
scenes in the Potomac valley, and if YOU
are at all imaginative, the roar of distant
battles along the Potomac and Shenan-
doah valley may be heard above the noise
of the flying car wheels, or you can recall
the daring raid of John Brown at Harper's
Ferry, within a stones throw of your
train.
1t IS worth your while to awake at night
as the train speeds along near Fostoria, in
northern Ohio. Flames OF natural Gas
shoot heavenward, alternately lighting
up humble home, revealing bit of pic
turesque landscape, or breaking the
gloom of forests. To see these ever burD-
ing lights isindeed a new experience, and
at night the weird sight alone is worth a
trip over the Baltimore 4 Ohio, which
affords to the traveller so many unique and
fascinating pictures which go to make up
the glories of our own American scenery.
The journey over the Alleghanies carries
with it the impression that here. in our
own land, we have glorious heritage for
the inspiration of the poet and artist
Davenport Ia. Church Bells.

hung. In the ordinary tipi the kettle
hangs from g single crooked stick driven
into the ground at an angle.
All around the sides of The house other
stout, upright poles forked at the top are
driven into the ground about five feet in
from the walls. The-forked ends reach
ing up tc the main poles of the framework
help TO support them. About two feet
from the ground strong cross pieces run
out from these uprights and join the
poles, forming the walls.

accuracy is sufficient for most practical
applications. Ii weighs one pound, ten
ounces, and measures seventeen inches
over all.
ANOTHER CALCULATING CYLINDER.
Thatcher's cylindrical slide rule has
perhaps the highest degree of accuracy OF
any calculator in practical use.
1t Is made in the form OF cylinder,
nineteen and one-half inches long and
three and three fourths inches in diam
eter, and engraved with logarithmic
scale, not spirally, but in successive rows
parallel to the axis.
The cylinder slides, friction tight in
cage of twenty bars each as long as
itself and all carrying similar scales. The
equivalent length of straight rule would
be sixty feet.
This instrument gives four figures by
scale marks, and also the fifth figure by
estimate with a considerable degree of
certainty. 1t therefore exceeds Fuller s
in precision by nearly one figure.
On the other hand, it takes consider
ably more time TO set Thatcher's slide for
each new problem. / have found Thatch
er's rule to be specially suitable Tor
proportions, or for series of PRO
ducts" involving one factor for the ma
chine will yield endless products or
''quotients'' employing the same factor
without resetting. Yet for ordinary
work the swiftness and convenience of
Fuller'S gives the latter distinct prefer
ence.
Slide rules have also been made with
tapes travelling on rollers and driven by
handle, but these have never found ex-
tended use.

OTHER SLIDE RULES.

Then there are straight slide rules from
six to fifteen inches long.
BY the longest and best graduated COM
putations can be carried TO three definite
figures, but no more.
Beyond these three figures the length of
the calculator becomes too great to be
convenient in one piece.
Various devices have been resorted to to
increase the effective length ofslide with
out encumbering the instrument.
Perhaps the most ingenious is FuIler's
spiral slide rule made by Stanley in Lon
don. This consists of wooden cylinder
supported in the lett hand by a project
ing handle, which is prolongation of
the axis. On this cylinder there slides
freely an outer one three and one fourth
inches In diameter, whose surface is en-
Praved spirally with q logarithmic scale
of fifty convolutions.
This is equivalent TO straight rule Il
feet and inches long.
The machine can be operated rapidly,
and products or quotients can generally
be obtained within ten seconds of their
proposal The results are reliable up to
Jour figures.
