Ice Crack Thirty Miles Long.

A curious phenomenon Is reported on
Lake Winnebago. In the middle of the
winter the ice cracks open, the flssure ex-
tending lengthwise of the lake and almost
exactly midway between the cast and the
west shores. This opening averages from
3 to feet in width and is nearly 30 miles
long 1t occurs every winter regularly,
and those who are in the habit Of crossing
tho lake on the ice make arrangements to
construct temporary bridge across the
chasm. The only explanation of the mat
ter Is that the extreme cold causes the Ice
to contract, and tho contraction being
equal In the whole mass IL causes the open

Especial to The Herald

Boise Ida. March 3.-Activity among
the Populi5tS today created considerable
commotion in senatorial circles and the
old story that the Populists would go to
Sweet in sufficient numbers to elect him.
Was revived and given wide circulation
for the purpose, it is thought, of holding
Sweet men together over tomorrow. Sew
eral things go to show there is nothing
in the report. In the first place, the
Mormon members have Governor McCon-
nells ultimatum that if they Join with
the Populists to elect Sweet. he viii veto
their appordonment bill. Again, several
Populists have openly stated there would
be no break unless all went together
There are several strong Shoup men in
the popuIist ranks. Your correspondent
has it from an authoritative Sweet
source that the 70 will go to pieces at
O'Clock tomorrow night. The effort Of
Sweet to gobbIe up the PopuIsts no
doubt gave rise to the story that the
PoDulists would go to Sweet tomorrow
Shoup men claim Shoup will be elected
Tuesday or Wednesday, beyond a doubt.

LAND OF THE HOLD.UPS.
California Contributes Another Red
Hot Item.

Sacramento, Cal. March 5.-Train No. 8
was held up near Antelope station at
o. clock this morning by two masked men
dressed in long listers. They climbed
over the tender into the cab, and before
the engineer or fireman was aware of
their presence they had the trainmen
covered with their reVolVers and order
ed the engineer to slow up. One Of the
highwaymen kept the engineer under
guard while his partner took the fireman
to the baggage car and there compelled
him to uncouple it from the train. He
returned to the cab with the fireman and
ordered the engineer to go ahead.
After running a short distance the en-
gineer was ordered to stop, but as he
slowed up. the fireman grappled with one
of the men, who laid him. low with a
blow from his revolver.
The engineer attempted to hit his man
with wrench but he jumped to the
ground, and with his companion, es-
caped to the woods.
The engine, with the baggage car un-
touched. backed down to the train and
then proceeded to Antelope, from where
word was wired here.
