Tried to Steal the Army.

A full major in the gospel army
which is conducting a campaign in
San Francisco was drummed out of
the ranks publicly one night last
week for the serious offense of trying
to steal the army. The stated
charge was conduct unbecoming a
soldier of the cross" The army is
an unincorporated organization of
considerable size, maintaining sever
al barracks and forts in San Fran
cisco. The major in question had
the instincts of a dictator, and
panied the general of the army by
his characterization and ambition.
Finally the major was found out in
plot to have the army incorporated,
with himself and four men of his
clique as incorporators. The general
and his chief of staff were to be
frozen out. Then the general de-
cided that for his own safety, as well
as for the good of the army, the
major must be bounced.

Late Discoveries.

The existence of the greatest de-
posits of iron ores and the fact that
the largest portion of the supposed
Labrador peninsular is in reality an
island of so, 600 square miles, are the
largest discoveries of A. P. Low, of
the dominion geological survey. The
ore is composed of quartz, feldspar
and magnetic, and grades from ter
ruginous gneiss into an almost pure
iron of high grade. This bed, in
great thickness, can be traced for
upward OF 30 miles, and there Is an
immense mountain of almost pure
metal.

this valuable book, the recipient only

give me through ticket to New

man, perhaps IS years OF age, to Agent
Delaney at the Santa Fe depot yester'
day afternoon
As is usual with courteous Del, the
stranger was speedily provided with
the desired pasteboard and after pay
ing the stipulated price signed the
name "D. c. Ashmun" TO the ticket.
And thereby hangs a tale Of domes.
tic woe.
d. c. Ashmun is editor OF the Ad.
vance, OF Summerville, California. He
is also the villainous husband OF a true
wife. March II, Ashmun left his wife
and family, telling them he was going
to Santa Barbara on business. In.
stead, he went TO Los Angeles where
he met handsome brunette named
Mollie Sillman. The conple disap-
peAred and the news was noised that
they had gone to Mobile. The desert
ed wife made frantic efforts TO find her
truant husband, but 10 no avail
On Tuesday Ashmun and the woman
appeared in Guthrie Ashmun intro
duced the woman as his wife and
started out TO make acquaintances
They did not go to a hotel but
engaged rooms at private house,
where the woman is now sheltered.
While here Ashmun made many in
quiries regarding our divorce laws and
was particular in ascertaiAing the
grounds on which decree could be
obtained. 1t is thought he is after a
trunk divorce. Although Ashmun
purchased ticket TO New Orleans, it
is said this is only ruse to throw his
wife of the trail. Mrs. Ashmun has
been wired regarding her husbands
movements, and 1t is probable she will
come to Guthrie.

what the Chinch Bug Does During the
Winter and Spring.
Two local "horticulturists" carried
on quite lively discussion few days
ago as TO what became OF the chinch
bug during the winter. Did it die, for
keeps, or did it go into a comat ose
state, only to reappear again in the
spring? Failing to agree, they left
the question to Chancellor Snow, who
is an eminent authority on the subject
The following reply was received;
University of Kansas, Lawrence,
March 25.-The chinch bug survives
the winter ia the mature stage or
winged condition and lays eggs in IN c
spring for a new brood. II hibernates
in various sheltered places, under stub
BILE, at the roots of wild grasses, under
stones, elods, etc.
