THE CASTLE
Three Lives Are Lost and Still the Des-
peradoes Are at Large.

Since our last issue active pursuit has
been kept up after the two outlaws who
are travelling eastward, and are now prob
ably $50 miles east of the first fight, and
making for the bad lands. Westbrook,
who was with RAIDER, says that Gross shot
RAIDER from the back while he was trying
to arrest Gay. Westbrook beat a retreat
but stopped in the vicinity for reinforce
ments. The house was guarded that
night, but the murderers succeeded in re-
turning, and equipping themselves and
eluding the guard. They started, we'll
horsed and armed down the Musselshell,
with Sheriff OMAR and posse in hot pur-
suit.
These discovered the outlaws in a
thicket where they had constructed a
rifle pit to meet an attack. James
Mackey, of the searching party, espied
them when only fifteen feet distant from
| them, and seeing they were discovered
/ they Immediately shot him through the
abdomen. He fell, then rose and fired
two or three shots at the desperadoes.
Geo. Williams, who was not far off,
raised his rifle to shoot the slayer but
after swapping several times he found
that his gun, which he had borrowed for
the occasion, was minus a needle and
worthless. Gay shot at Williams but
missed his mark.
Mackey was taken to a neighboring
ranch where he DOR passed away from
the effects of his wound.
An unconfirmed report comes that the
body of a cowboy named Barker has
been found, who probably fell at the
hands of the two fleeing Williams, the Oh
ject being to obtain his horse. Another
report is to the effect that the residence
of Gay at Castle was burned to the
ground revealing a small cellar beneath
which was full of stolen goods. Four
women connected with the affair are now
in Jail, but Gay and Gross are still at
large and fast travelling toward the fast
ness of the bad lands. 1t is doubtful if
they will be taken. But the case is a bad
one, resulting in the death of a faithful
officer and two innocent, law abiding cit
liens. He'll has no punishment too great
for such monsters.

E. r. Chase, president Of the local broth
erhood of stationary engineers, came
into camp Monday. He passed a most
thrilling and narrowing experience in
the shop of the Barker mine at Hughes
vile. Over 200 pounds of giant powder
exploded, literally wrecking the building
while he alone was inside. He wa
thrown several yards, and fell where a
stack of boards and loose timbers piled
themselves on top of him. Besides
received a few bruises he was not much
hurt but it was two or three days before
his nervous system settled back to its
natural repose. Don't do it again, Mr..
Chase.

DEATH IN A MINE.
Martin McHugh is Horribly Crushed
in an Accident at the
MOulton.

McHugh, the stage tender, was caught
between the wall plate and cage as the
latter was rising, and instantly killed.
1t seems from investigation that there
was no witness to the death. The
Engineer heard a bell from the 400 to
hoist a car of ore. The bell would have
been run differently had the cage borne
men. Generally the cage is hoisted with
wonderful rapidity making the 400 feet
to the surface in about four seconds and
it is the business of the station tender to
ring no bells until every thing is ready.
This time the bell was rung, and the
cage started but was suddenly stopped by
some obstruction which the engineer
could not understand. He paused a mo-
ment, then lowered the cage back to the
station. James Cleary is the engineer,
and II more careful one, it is said, never
handled the throttle. He called to Tom
Dews who was at the mouth of the shaft,
to call up the other cage from the 500
and to descend to the 400 to learn the
trouble. This was instantly done and a
horrible discovery was made. McHugh's
body was under the cage, his head sus-
pended into the shaft, his legs fast to
the station with the cage upon them.
His body was extricated from it's po-
s%ition, but life was extinct.
Justice McGibbon was Immediately
called, who summoned a Coroner's Jury
of the following named persons: Allen
Pierse, Geo. Johston, Jno. Sweeney, Chas.
Maynard, Jos. Mowbray and Hugh Ste
vens. The acting Coroner and Jury at
once set about to investigate the cause of
the deed. There was no one present at
the time it happened.
James Clergy the engineer was placed
under oath giving testimony that the call
from the 400 was to hoist and that he
did only what was always meant by one
bell from that station. Thos. Dews who
also heard the bell corroborated his
statement. Only speculation can decide
the Immediate cause of the death. The
tender has to load and unload the cage,
to mark the grade of the ore, called
tagging the car" and send all calls
to the engineer. There is "A plausible
explanation based upon supposition
which was given to the jury.
The man might have rung for the cage
to rise, then seeing he had not tagged
the car reached forward to do 50. His
position as the cage started caught hin
before he could escape. His face anc
breast were crushed, legs and arms al
broken, and his neck dislocated, so tina
death must have been instantaneous.
The jury were able to find no caus'
for the death except that of carelessnes!

Banks has tried to discipline his men in
to discretion and carefulness and he ha

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN
For the week ending Tuesday, Jul,
18th. 1898.

By Willis Moore, Forecast Official, Mil.
With the rainfall ample and temper
allure about normal, the weather con-
ditions the past week have been per-
feet the for the crops, in their respec-
tive stages of stock growth, seed de-
velopment or final maturity.
The harvest of winter wheat and
rye is general throughout the state,
and the yield will meet former large
expectations.
Haying continues, and fully one
third of the crop is now out. Owing
to the heavy yield and the delay Incl
dent to the recent rains, it will be
August LIST before the crop is all in.
Corn and potatoes continue the
favorable growth which has character
lied them during the past month.
Recent rains have put the ground in
fine shape in the principal potato
counties. In Dunn county corn is re-
ported six feet high in many fields.
The drough of June caught spring
grain at the period of its development
when it was least able to withstand
heat and dryness, and the result is
that both oats and barley will prob
ably be considerably below the
average in yield. Oats that were
heading out with about six or eight
inches Of straw, have, since the rains,
considerably increased the length of
the stalks. Even with the increase,
the straw will be very light. Consid-
cradle lodging of barley in southeast
counties will injure the color.
Blue berries are a good crop, al
though they were slightly reduced by
drouth. Strawberries probably lost
one-fourth in yield from the same
cause. But the excellent rains of the
past week are in time to help black
berries, and they promise good crop.
All conditions point to large crop
Of cranberries, unless severe and early
frosts interfere. The fire worm, how
ever, has done much damage in the
vicinity of Auroraville and Daily, and
is making its appearance in Meadow
Valley.

Power of Town Boards.

Viroqua Censor.
One case of more than common in
terest was that which attracted small
army of witnesses from Whitestown
The facts briefly stated are that about
four the supervisors of that town pur-
an American road machine, giving in
payment the towns obligation. AT
the ensuing town meeting the electors
refused to accept the implement.
Action was brought against the town
for the amount of purchase. On pres
entation of facts in the case, Judge
Newman nonsuited the plaintiffs, as
serted that the board acted without
authority when the purchase was
made. The law conferred no such ex-
traordinary power upon officials. This
is point that may not have been en-
tirely clear to the average citizen and
official but this case may serve them
well as guide.
