1t is now definitely settled that West Far
nam street will be paved with sheet asphalt
with brick between the street car tracks
The petition dfor this material has already
been signed by property owners represent
ling 500 feet more than a majority of the
front footage. and. it is expected that the
majority will be increased to nearly 1000
feet before it is filed with the city clerk.
The property owners on Twenty-fifth
street, between Cunning street and Indiana
avenue, have filed what purports to be a
majority petition against the proposed paw
ing of the street. 1t has not been checked
up by the engineering department, but as the
protest apparently represents a majority of
the frontage there any further action toward
paving the district is improbable.

Refuses to RcIcnsc the Elk.

EVANSTON, Wyo., Aug. 25.-(Special)-
County Attorney j. w. Sammon, who has
just returned from a visit to the Jackson's
Hole country, publishes in a local paper the
result of his investigation of the alleged il
legal impounding of elk by ranchmen of the
region. He found that j. A. Adams, who
has ranch on the Gros Ventre, has con-
fined in his corral seventy seven head of
young elk. Nearly all of the animals were
taken up while in starving condition last
winter and fed and cared for by Mr.. Adams
Heretofore it has been the practice of the
state authorities to grant permission to ship
captured elk to eastern parties for the pur-
pose of DEMONSTRATING the animals in parks
and preserves, but in this case for some un-
known reason. this permit was not granted.
On the contrary, Mr.. Adams was notified by
the local game warden that he must release
the animals. This he declined to do and ap-
pealed to the state authorities, who sus-
tanned the action of the game warden. Mr..
Adams now refuses to release the elk unless
ordered to do so by formal order of court.
He is sustained in his position by the county
attorney who contends that Mr.. Adams has
violated no law in the manner in which he
has acquired possession of the elk.

wheat men are not the only ones who are
securing a share of the boom prices. The
country is being closely secured by cattle
buyers who want them for the Iowa corn
fields, and the price is being pushed steadily
upward. The high price of feeders has
forced the market all along the line. and it
is reported that IN the yards in this city
last Saturday, when a large shipment was
in for Chicago, that a bunch of twenty A.
years-olds sold for $53.75 per head and that
another bunch of 100 3-year-olds sold for
$45 straight. One ranchman in from the
country north of here last week sold
bunch of 2-year-olds for S35 per head on his

Weyler Takes the Field to Once

Country.

y NEW YORK, Jan. 2l.-The Press
says: Glad tidings to Cubans in this
city were those which ANNOUNCED the
sinking of the Spanish gunboat Relam-
pago, by mean of q torpedo, while the
ship was hurrying to the assistance Of
the garrison at Fort Guanmo, on the
Gauto river, the most important lnland
waterway of the island. Anxiously
during the last three weeks, news Of
this kind has been awaited by Cubans,
who knew that their government had
decided to attack Spain's feet in the
only way open to the insurgents,
namely, by submarine explosions.
Three weeks ago a letter was received
in this city in which the writer said
that the delay in beginning war upon
Spain's patrol feet was due to the
blunder of those who shipped the wire
and the generator Of electricity to be
used in exploding torpedoes. The mis-
take had been rectified, and the mate
rial reached it's destination safely, as is
proven by the destruction of the Relam-
pago ON Saturday of last week.
Only the Beginning.
A gentleman who knows the ~electri-
clan who accomplished the first marine
victory for Cuba Libre, says:
1.-The mar under whose supervision
the insurgents have begun war on
Spain's gunboats is thoroughly pro-
ficient in electrical engineering, and is
in Cuba now because of his enthusiasm
in the cause of freedom. l believe this
new departure will result in the loss of
many more of Spain's gunboats.
1.-The commanders of the patrol feet
are afraid to keep their ships in the
open sea at night, and their places of
rendezvous behind the little islands
scattered all along the Cuban coast are
perfectly known to the patrols. The
torpedo service will devote its energy
exclusively to rivers navigable by the
Spanish gunboats, and to the unpro-
tected anchorage to which they retreat
at night. There are more than 40 wa,
vessels of different kinds i'll Cuban
waters. They are seldom in Havana
harbor. They will be easy game when
once our torpedo service has become il
a degree perfected. I shall be disap
pointed five do not hear of other sue,
cessful attacks upon Spain's feet with
