people or the newspapers. Certain Democratic
manipulators, however, claimed to know how the
vote stood. and that Turney would be seated.
At the same time all outside information showed
that Evans had about 1000 plurality Nearly
all the newspapers have claimed Evans's cleo

BOULDER, Colo, June FIFTY bridges
between hero and the mountains have
been carried away. The towns of Copper

their outbuildings swept down the can

Springdale and jamestown suffered

Several other small towns along the can

tricts has been re established.
IDAHO SPRINGS, Colo, Juno 1.-The
damage by the flood in this county is est
mated at 500, 900. The storm was tho
longest and most disastrous in the memo
ry of the oldest inhabitant. On the noun
tain tops instead of rain, Is inches of
snow fell. Almost all the bridges over
Fair creek and its branches have gone and
some houses were washed away and mines
flooded There have been no trains in or
out for two days, and there will probably
be none for several days yet.
PORTLAND, Or, juno 2.-Thc flood in
the Columbia continues to increase and
the indications are that the worst is to
come. The upper Columbia is again ris
ing about one foot in 2t hours. The river
is more than Il foot higher than ever be-
fore known, and the damage will be i'm
mcnsc.
The fertile bottom lands along the river
from the Rocky mountains to the sea, n
distance of 600 miles, arc all inundated.
Crops are ruined, houses washed away and
stock drowned The l..,uu has come grad
ually, which has given residents an oppOr
tunity to moTr from their houses. The
salmon canning business has been almost
annihilatcd. Fish and canning establish
ments along the river for Il distance of
goo miles are under water Photographic
communication to the north and cast is
cut off by n roundabout way. All along

MISERlES OF THE GREAT.

Cowper was all his days overshadowed
by the gloom of insanity.
Cervantes was always poor and constant
ly annoyed by his creditors.
Julius Caesar had weak digestion and
was subject to epileptic fits.
Bunyan passed 10 years in Jail, and dur
ing that time supported himself while
writing "Pilgrim's Progress"
Roger Bacon's love of philosophy proved
his bane, for all his life he was suspected
of familiar intercourse with the devil.
Corneille would have died of want had
not Louis XIV accidentally heard Of his
condition and sent him n sum Of money.
Hawkesworth. who compiled the collec
ton of voyages that goes by his name. was
so disturbed by their unfavorable reception
that the modification shortened his life.
Goldsmith's improvidence caused him
great annoyance He was more than once
compelled to dodge his creditors and on at
least one occasion was locked up for debt.
Vespasian was rendered miserable by his
avarice. Although he had the Roman en-
pire at his command, he would quarrel
with his cooks about the price of dinner
Baxter, he of the Saints Rest" was ac-
customed to imprisonment, so that 1t gave
him little uneasiness. His greatest misery
when in Jail was to be deprived of his
books.
Cromwell lived in constant fear of assas-
sination. For several years he never slept
two consecutive nights in the same room
and always wore a suit of chain armor I'M
der his clothing.
Henry VIZ was miserably penurious. His
parsimony was a matter of ridicule among
his people, but no amount of soothing could
ever compel him to open his Golfers and
spend his money.--St. Louis Globe-Demo.

We are now riding through the Indian
Territory. 1t is very rich country De-
tween Winfield, Kan, and Fort Smith.
I've also heard a good deal about the
Cherokee strip, but never saw one do so
till the past week. I told the police
about it, and he resumed his clothes once
more.
The other night rode till most morning
beside United States deputy marshal
and with winchester rifle on my lap.
He chatted pleasantly about the outlaws
here and how they had to be hunted.
Every year on an average IL deputy
marshals die at the hands of these out
laws of the Dalton stripe.
NV friend said that though few OF the
deputies lived to grow up they are very
poorly paid, and though they afford po-
lice protection to the railroad and ex-
press companies noticed that he had to
pay his fare.
"Whatw exclaimed. You don'thave
to pay fare here when you are trying to
protect the company's property and the
lives of passengers
"Oh, yes, he SAID, looking GOWN inc
barrel of his gun. Every outlaw knows
me and is at liberty to shoot me down in
cold blood, yet get barely enough to live
on from it, and though the railroad COM
pany sometimes passes us to the scene of
an express robbery, after we have secured
the country and slept out of doors a week
in pursuit of the robbers, when we
return we pay 5 cents per mile to get
home if alive and about the same rate If
dead.
The Indian Territory at present is filled
with desperadoes from all over the world,
and Cass county, Mo-, too, for that mat
ter.
The wheat crop is very fine, running
on an average so bushels of fine wheat
per acre. These lands are rented to
white settlers, who give about IS per
| acre in crops or one-third the yield for
the use of the land, but these people
have, | am sorry to say, dime novel
| idea of the brave outlaws and will not
only shelter them without cost, but keep
guard over them while they sleep I'M
der their roof.
This makes it almost impossible for
the government to overtake these men,
unless, as at Coffeyville, the robbers are
shot down before they can get across the
line.
