the animals and the forward ones of the
herd were being forced into the chute
that led into the cars by men with long,
sharp spikes in their hands. As the
herd became more compact by those
from behind being forced against the
leaders some on the sides refused to go
farther. They turned and started south
toward the bridge.
Two boys on horses tried to turn
them back but failed and in a moment
the whole herd was rushing directly to-
ward the bridge. Several men en-
ployed by Otto Kuehne made an inef-
fectual attempt to stop the frightened
animals who paid nc attention what
ever to their shouts.
The first of the animals to get onto
the bridge was a large red steer. He
went from tie to tie until he was half
across the first span when down he
went and hung helpless between the
timbers. One that followed him went
through before he had gone ten feet
onto the bridge and he was helpless in
deed for one of his front legs and one
of his hind ones were broken by the
fall.
As the cattle crowded each other onto
the dangerous bridge a large spotted
steer was forced off. Down he went
head first and struck the water with a
splash. The river was ten feet deep
where he fell and he disappeared under
the water but when he came up he
struck out for the bank and soon landed
unframed.
BY this time the bridge was almost
covered with cattle. A few reached the
end of the second span but then they
fell through One which was near the
end of the second span got tired of the
perilous footing and jumped into the
river. About midway of the span
heifer fell through She struggled to
free herself and in thrashing around
broke two of her legs. But in her
struggles she managed to free herself
and dropped into the water. With her
legs broken the poor animal could not
swim and was carried down the river
by the current for two blocks and was
then hauled out by ropes.
It was a startling sight. The north
span of the bridge was covered with
a squirting. helpless mass of cattle
The rest of the herd which came up did
not attempt to cross the bridge for
there was no longer any room.
In five minutes time 81 cattle were
fastened on the bridge besides the half
dozen that had jumped or fallen into
the water.
The work of rescue was commenced
at once. Otto Kuehne who had seen

the cattle as they ran onto the bridge
ordered all the men in his esta blishment
out and they secured planks and man
aged to get the cattle off one by one.
After they were lifted off they were led
off the bridge on the temporary plank
floor.
Large numbers of people gathered on
the banks watched the rescue work;
in one hour from the time the first ami
NAL ran onto the bridge the last one
had been taken off. Five of the cattle
could not walk for their legs had been
broken and these were dragged off with
ropes. These were the only injured ones
and they were killed last evening.
The cattle were a mixed lot and were
to be shipped to Riley county to be
placed on pasture.
Food Inspector Farnsworth visited
the stock yards today to see what dis
position had been made of the animals
that were killed. He found that their
hides had been taken off and their. flesh
fed to hogs.

day. In less time than it takes to tell
it so of the animals were helpless on
the bridge with their legs dangling IN

below.
The cattle belonged to the Union
stock yards of North Topeka. The
proprietors, Dairy & Crow had sold them
to a farmer near Manhattan and they

Vancouver, B. c., March s.-Disaster
and desolation beyond description have
overtaken two colonies of Australia.
Passengers arriving by the Aorangi to-
day, blooming in straw hats and bIaz-
ers, tell a startling story of the terrible
heat rays which are whitening up a con-

weird fantasy, THE War of the

antipodean nations struggle for life be-
meath the blighting heat of a pitiless
sun At noon in Melbourne, Victoria,
the sun focused a whitening ray on the
city. Water in the wells sunk into the
parched earth, streams dried up, and
rivers visibly sank as in a falling tide.
