MAD FIGHT In JAIL.
Thrilling Experience With n Tough
Gnng in North Carolina

Fayetteville, N. c., Oct. 6.-''Not on
your life," said Jailor Clark, when he
opened the heavy iron door of cell
No. 2, in Cumberland county Jail, to
supply meal to Louis Crawford, Jim
Burns and Hlijah Burns last night.
Louis Crawford, veteran convict,
who has done time in both the Caro-
linas, made a rush at the jailor with
the intention of smothering him with
a blanket, which he had in his hands.
Clark perceived his object, quickly
drew his revolver and fired, mortally
wounding the prisoner in the left side.
The shot. however, did not stop Craw-
ford's rush, and he succeeded in COW
ering Clark with the blanket and bore
him to the floor in the corridor, shout
ing to his companions to come on and
help him. He struggled meanwhile
with the jailor to get possession of the
pistol. AS mis- comrades tried to leave
the cells to aid him, Mrs. Lizzie Wade,
jail matron, who had accompanied
Clark, quietly closed and locked the
door in their faces. In the meantime
| the other prisoners had rallied to
Crawford's assistance and in the
desperate battle which ensued, Jailor
Clark's pistol was again discharged,
seriously wounding Assistant Tailor
Bramble in both feet and also an I'M
known prisoner. After terrible fight
Clark and Bramble succeeded in driv-
| ing the prisoners back to their cells.

How we Grow.

The Eternal City was not built in
one diurnal rotation of the globe. 1t
took Observation-Disclosures for the I'M
perial City to reach the magnificence
which made it the wonder of the
ancients Cities are completed faster
nowadays than they were in the
olden times, and yet it takes some time
for them to reach perfection. Take the
growth of Salt Lake for instance, it
began at the center and proceeded out
wards. Some few years ago a few bold
spirits commenced improving Brigham
street out around Eighth East; they
got the land cheap; but they built good
houses, and walked to and from their
homes. People wondered at their
courage and talked about the incon-
venience of being so far away and
asked them if they didn't feel lonesome.
That property now is a little bit the
most valuable residence property in
Salt Lake; it isn't lonesome out there
now, and if you will investigate you
will find the people who live there have
been pretty we'll paid for their courage
in the profits that came to them be-
cause of the increase of values brought
about by the character of the improve
ments they made. 1t is not too late to
do the same thing again; the people
who buy now in popperton place get
the land for nearly nothing. and as the
homes to go there will all be first
class, every day the land they own
will be worth more money. Some day,
not far distant, they will find them
selves owning the highest price prop
erty in the city, and then people will
point them out as examples of rare
ability. There is reason in this, and
the wonder of our lives is, why we
need to argue the proposition at all.

great attractions will travel on to-
gether; the development of the first
will accelerate the growth of the
second, and popperton place viii keep
! trotting along close besideethem. Isn't
it strange that there should be anyone
in all this world to gainsay the future of
any or either of them. 1t is as neces-
sary for city to have great resi-
dence locality as it is for it to have a
fire department. No one will contend
now that popperton will not be the
site for our future fine homes. We are
simply giving it away with all of its
attractions. If you are going to buy
home, don't buy hastily; study the con-
ditions of health, and view. and pure
air, and then look little into the fu-
ture and determine that it is better to
buy it where there is a certainty of
good surroundings and the certainty of
steady profit because of improvements
that are and always will be made
where they are invited by natural at
| fractions.

An Elephant Nearly Frightened to
Death BY a Rat.

San Francisco, Oct. 6.-The reason
for the strange actions of Jess. the
circus elephant which went on a ram
page early this morning and after
breaking her fastenings and nearly
wrecking the circus, roamed through
the streets of San Francisco, has been
discovered. Jess has always been per-
fectly docile and could be handled by
any of the circus people. While she
was being pursued through the streets
this morning by her keepers they
noticed that the big animal acted as if
frenzied by fright. Finally when he was
allowed to come near one of the keep
ers noticed something protruding from
the end of her trunk. He pulled it out
and found that it was a live rat. The
elephant had been lying on the ground
asleep with her trunk stretched in
front of her, and 1t is supposed that
the rat ran up her trunk. The animal
contracted the muscles of her trunk
and held the rodent fast. When the
rat had been removed the elephant
gave sign of great satisfaction and
made no further resistance to being
| led back.

states that weevils are playing havoc
with the stored wheat in this part, and
# something be not done soon, there viii
be no grain left with which to load the
disengaged ships now in port. Some
days ago it was publicly stated that $500
tons of wheat at Port Costa was weevily,
and now it is announced that II, 100 tons
at the Nevada dock and 1900 tons more
at Port Costa are infested and will have
to be removed That makes 22,200 tons
unfit for shipment and will have to be
used for pig and chicken feed: If the
wheat had been shipped at the low rates
a small profit might have been made
Now it will be almost total loss.
