Notes From

Special Correspondence to the Stockman.
Edgemont, S. D., Oct. 18.-S. A.
Iden has closed out his sheep here,
some 2100 head. to Messrs Tubs aud
Webster of Custer. The price paid
was $500 per head for lambs and
$500 per head for ones, twos and
over. The bunch was mixed stock
and included $50 lambs. The sheep
will be run on Coal and Cottonwood
creeks.
There "a a hot time up along the
Edgemont company's ditch a few
days ago. 1t seems that the com
pany had built a house and barn and
dug a we'll on a tract Of government
land which had formerly been filed
on by a Mr.. Hogg. Hogg moved
into the house with his family and
household effects and resided therein
in peace for a few days. On Sunday
the 3rd-the company sent six
teen men up with teams and all
necessary house-moving paraphe-
MALTA with instructions to move the
house without delay. Hogg appear
ed on the scene and objected to the
proceedings, presenting a gun as a
more foreible persuader than words.
The men disarmed Hogg, and the
house "a moved, together with
all Of Hogg's housekeeping outfit.
The house now rests on company
ground and Hogg lows revenge.
There vas still another skirmish
along the company ditch a few days
ago. A tenant named Voshick mad
some difficulty John Hall, the man
in charge of water distribution. Vo-
shick, who is a little man but solid
as a rock, ordered Hall to turn ON
the water. Hall refused, and after
a few well directed and pointed re-
marks the two men pulled coats and
went at it in true -Fitzsim-
mons fashion to see il it was water
or no water for Voshick. Hall hit
his short antagonist over the head
with a pinch-bar and then IAN into
a house near by. Voshick grabbed
a brick and a Ratchet and waited
outsiue awhile, but afterwards went
home. The trouble was patched up
before a justice of the peace on Fri
day and reulted in a victory for w.
shick, who will probably get water.
Sheep are in good condition over
in this section.

At Des Moines they have been trying
the experiment of having letter boxes
attached TO all street cars. The cars in
that city all run past the postoffice, and
they stop at any point to receive mail
matter. A carrier is stationed at the
postofice to take the mail off from the
boxes. Last month there were collected
in this way %, 237 letters, 6,059 cards and
Al other pieces of mail matter, showing
that the plan is appreciated by the pub
lie. In city where all cars run past the
postoffice the collection of mail could be
greatly facilitated bv this method, and

The report that c. H. Finley, DR.. 0.
7. Hougen and l. E. Philleo had shot
fourteen birds near BabcOcK in Juneau
county is false as TO that charge. That
the party shot few birds is probably
so, but not proven yet. We have word
from BabcocK that the evidence war
ranted the arrest of G. H. Finley for
having one or more birds IN his pos
session and he was taken to Mansion by
a special deputy game warden and the
outcome is not yet known. DIR. HOu-
gen went down there TO purchase a
dog and before doing SO the dog was
taken out into the field for trial. We
surmise that some one of the party may
have shot few birds III trying the dog,
but who is guilty is for the witnesses to
prove. Tie outcome is-not yet known.
The worst features of the offensc is the
fact that MesSrs. Hougen and Philleo
were members OF our local gun club or
ganized for the protection Of game.
