From farmers in the hailed districts
we learn that their oat fields will
probably yield them feed and seed
from the second growth of oats.
This will be an unexpected boon, as
the fields, after the storm, were swept
50 bare that it was thought impos-
sible for anything to grow. However,
the oats either were reseeded or the
roots sent up new shoots, and unless
cut down by frost, in some sections a
fair crop of oats is expected. We
hope the unfortunate ones may real
ize their expectations, and if only
enough for feed is harvested it will
be God-send.

A telegram was received yesterday
afternoon from Herman asking for
the arrest and detention of one j. f.
Mckinney, on the east bound freight.
There was no description of the par
ty, and a delay was caused in getting
one. In the meantime the passenger
going east pulled out and Marshal
Griffith is Of the opinion the party
left on it. A thorough but fruitless
search of the freight was made.
Later Deputy Sheriff Stoneberg ar
rived, and from him it was learned
that Mckinney was wanted for jump
ing hoard bill and swiping watch,

A Bad Blaze.

A fire, having its origin in the barn
of the Central house, broke out lit
tic after midnight Saturday. The
location Of the fire, in closely built
frame row, and the fierce way in
which it burned, made it look, for a
time, as If the entire block was
doomed. What might have proven
very disastrous conaagration was
arrested by the prompt discovery Of
the fire and the quick, effective and
admirable work of the fire depart
ment. The premises burned were
small barn, some sheds and the east
wing of the Central house, which was
considerably damaged by both fire
and water.
The origin of the fire was sus-
picious, and it started in the barn
shortly after some tramps wereT rout
ed out, three of whom were after
wards arrested on suspicion of having
started the blaze.
S. j. Stebbins & Co.'s grocery store
was in the building, and they lost
by the moving out and
back of their goods
Joe Ross, the proprietor of the
Central house, loses his barn and had
considerable of his household effects
destroyed and damaged.
The total loss will not exceed $500.

L,O. Hollister had a very narrow
escape last Friday evening while
hunting with Mr. d. II. Moore, Of
Ohio. As they were moving across u
field, Mr.. Moore being in advance
with his gun over his shoulder, the
gun was accidently discharged, and
Mr.. HOLSTER received a fair portion
of the charge in the calf of his leg.
The angle at which the gun was held
was all that saved Mr., Hollister from
serious and perhaps fatal injury, and
we congratulate him on his fortunate
escape.

Justice Camp appeared before hiz-
zoner the mayor a few days ago to
make complaint against the night
watchmen for running out prisoners
without bringing them before the
court. The case was this: There
were six round-ups in the village grip
sack, and that about filled that spa
cious edifce, and the officers about
midnight found nine more vags in q
box-car. AS there was no room in the
ealaboose, they closed and fastened
the car doors so as to keep the pill
grims out of harm over night. Next
morning Officer See started to round
up his nights catch; and '-It 80 he
5oV QoHH - saw the n. p. train pull
/ out with the car Of prisoners in tow.
Hizzoner has not as yet made any
decision in this complicated case, as
he is undecided whether the joke is
on the justices, night-watches, tramps
or railroad.

The opening day at school was
somewhat of surprise to principal
and teachers, as 266 scholars were in
attendance. If the number enrolled
increases in proportion with other
years it is estimated that by October
LIST the attendance will be about $50
pupils, and probable enrolment of
400. 1t is regretted, and especially
SO by the school board, that it was
impossible to either add to the west
side school house this year, or to OBJ
tain temporary quarters for a couple
of the grades in some convenient To-
cation. It is hoped the inconyeni-
ence of over crowding will be patient
ly borne with, and while the teachers
may have to work at disadvantage,
yet they will do all that is possible
for their pupils, and some allowance
must be made by parents as the pres
ent conditions are unavoidable. The
board foresaw that more room was
but a lack of means baked
any efforts toward an addition to the
schoolhouse, and no accessible tenn
porary quarters were obtainable.

a call from Tintah for assistance
from our fire department brought the
apparatus to the depot in short order.
There was unavoidable delay in get
ting a train ready, and before the en-
CINE and hose cart were loaded word
was received that the fire was under
control.
The fire started about half past
four in the afternoon, it's origin be-
ing a mystery. It originated in the
horse barn on p. A. Putnam,s ranch,
and all the large barns were burned;
also>farm house, milk house, 200 tons
of hay, 5000 bushels of wheat, 1000
bushels Of oats, II head of horses,
including one imported stallion, har-
nesses, etc., etc.
The fire also spread to the roof of

were considerably damaged. Mr..
Ball, the station agent, fell from the
roof and sustained severe injury to
his ankle.

One day last week, while engaged
in shooting with rifle at a target,
Rufus F. Stevens accidently shot, a
son Of J. E. Danielson in the arm,
inficting a wound that while not seri-
Gus yet showed that if the bullet had
struck vital part the consequences
might have been more dangerous, if
not fatal. Mr.. Danielson had Rufus
arrested for malicious assault, and
the examination was held before JUS
tice Gillespie on Monday last where,
after both sides had been heard, the
case was dismissed.
The TRIBUNE does not intend to
shield or condone the offense; it was
a piece of thoughtless and headless
carelessness, a violation of an ordi-
nance, and an act that should be cen
sured, and Rufus Stevens condemns
and blames himself for having been
engaged in a hazardous pastime, re
grets that he was not more careful,
and deplores the injury inflicted.
The complaint charged willful in
jury, and we think SO serious a charge
was uncalled for, as it does not seem
reasonable that anyone endowed with
common sense and intelligence would
point and fire SO dangerous weapon
at another,
Quite an unnecessary and uncalled
for amount Of III feeling Is 81 .vavs
shown in eases Of thi~ kind. and we
nave 10 Intention of apologizing for
belittling or condoning the offense,
and think the outcome of the affair
will accomplish as good results as if
the case had gone further.
We tlust that this unfortunate case
will prove a wholesome lesson to
many who are careless in the use OF
dangerous weapons, and check the
needless and careless use of firearms
within the city limits.
