creek, at Thomas Davenport's sheep
camp. The story, as told by Lee and
corroborated by Will Bascom, who was
an eyewitness to the shooting and
accompanied Lee to Vernal, where he
came for the purpose of surrendering
to the authorities, is as follows:
Lee had sold dog to a man named
Eticks. The dog was in the possession
of Pigeon at the sheep camp, and when
Hicks Went for the dog Pigeon refused
to give him up. Lee then went to the
camp and a row ensued over the
ownership of the dog. Pigeon ordered
Lee out of the camp and threatened to
kill him if he did not comply, which
Lee failed to do, whereupon Pigeon
drew his gun and started in the direc-
ton of Lee, pointing the gun at him
and declaring that he would shoot his
head off.
Lee instantly drew his gun~and fired,
shooting Pigeon through the abdomen
and slightly wounding Mark Cillett,
who was endeavoring to get possession
Of Pigeons gun.
Lee at once started for Davenport S
ranch and informed them what had
happened and requested assistance for
Pigeon. He then set out for Vernal and
arrived here as above stated. Pigeon
was still alive when he started and it is
not yet known whether the shot was
fatal
Pigeon is the same man that took the
report Of the strange killing to Rock
Springs last year and reported it as
accidental. 1t was thought at the time
that he was an aceomplice in that af-
fair, and he was held with Johnson, the
slayer of Strange, but was afterwards
released. Nothing has as yet been done
in the matter, as the evidence as it
stands at present was not deemed of
a character to justify any action by
Justice Peck in the absence of Sheriff
Preece, who is on the way to Salt Lake
with Thomas Mckee, who received SEN
tence at the recent session of court
Pigeon is thought to have taken part
in the capture of Liant and Tracy, and
was with Valentine Hoy when he was

Z London, Nov. 21.-Agoneillo. the
of Aguinaldo, with his advisers,
returned here from Paris this morning.
He announced himself as being very in
dignant at the statements made by
Major General Wesley A. Merritt, in
reply to the arraignment OF American
officers by the insurgent iunta of Hong
kong, in an open letter to President Nc
Kinney and the people of the United
States, through the Associated Press.
The general situation also dispieased
Agoncillo, and after recalling to the in
terviewer how the Filipinos have 10y
ally and effectively aided the Ameri-
leans" he alluded to General Merritt s
reference to the Filipinos as children"
as simply the echo Of a Spanish say
ing, and he may, like the Spaniards,
ind his error when it is too late
He said further: Il am afraid the
FflipinOs Will never again submit to
the yoke Of colonial government.
Rather than live again as slaves, they
will fight to the bitter end in defense of
their rights and freedom. My instruc-
tions are to claim the recognition of
their independence.
What do the Filipinos think of the
American proposal to purchase the
islands," Agoncillo was asked.
The opinion Of the Filipino govern
ment cannot be favorable to it., he
answered, "as they cannot allow them
selves to be bought and sold like mer-
CT 7isa. But if the object of the
MI. -rate indemnity is that their recog-
milton and peace be established, 1 do
not see why, perhaps, the matter could
not be submitted to their considera-
ton.
Aguinaldo's agent was thea asked
what form Of government the Filipenos
would prefer, if they could not get
complete independence, but declined to
answer, on the ground that it would
I0e premature to do so, but expressed
D@eonfidence in the honor OF the Amer
lean nation and President Mckinley,
who will not permit any misunder-
standing.

WINTER AT DAWSON CITY.
Consul Cook Says Now Is the Time
For Capital to Invest.

Washington, Nov. 21.-In a report
dated Dawson City. Oct. l, United
States Consul Cook presents an inter
esting picture of the Klondike town
preparing to go into winter quarters.
Large quantities of logs are being piled
in front of business and other houses,
to serve for fuel, and small fortunes
were being made by parties who were
bringing in glass and oil lamps. Butter
was selling at 81 a pound. and the
price of condensed milk and other
products has doubled. 1t was predicted
that 5000 people would be working
through the different creeks in the
Dawson district on the winter digging,
beginning in the middle of November.
The bench and hillside claims were re-
ceiving. more attention, and it was eX-
pected that their product this year
would exceed that of the creek claims.
The consul says that now is a good
time for capital to step in, as there is
no doubt of the country being very
rich, but money is needed to develop.
He advises people who are coming now
to go over the passes by the lakes, and
then down the Yukon to Dawson.

MILLIONS MADE AT FARMING.
How David Rankin Has Succeeded
In Making Agriculture Pay.
From the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald.
Farming does pay, if you know how to
conduct it, and a large capital is not es-
sental to success. as is shown by. the
startling experience of David Rankin, a
millionaire farmer of Atchison county,
Missouri who has amassed an immense
fortune in agriculture and stock raising.
In these pursuits alone he accumulated an
immense fortune before embarking In
other ventures called forth by the desire
to vary the investments of a capital Of
five millions.
Likely the world contains no more sue
cessful farmer than Mr.. Rankin. He now
owns q, zoe acres of land in Atchison. coun-
ty, around the pretty town OF Tarkio.
He has divided his land into fourteen
ranches, varying in size from $40 to 5000
acres.
This year Mr.. Rankin had 1900 acres
of corn, 1000 in oats, 800 in wheat and the
rest in pasture. He annually feeds about
10000 head of cattle. His shipment this
year win be IL 250 head or 625 car loads.
TWenty-one years old Mr. Rankin
started to make his fortune with colt
a gift from hiss father-as his only capital
outside of his mental and physical endoW-
ments. The colt was sold for $52 and the
money invested in calves. He then bought
an eight-acre farm on credit, and farmed
it in systematic manner, with judgment
and close application. In four years after
his start he owned his farm, clear of
debt and had eighty head Of cattle, slight
ly encountered.
He was then married without a dollar
of cash to his name but soon hadea bank
account, bought horses and began break
ing prairie. He farmed in Illinois. Iowa
and Nebraska, and finally settled on the
parties OF Missouri. and made his home in
Atchison. Here he purchased his extern
sive tracts of land, paying from So to $i2
an acre.
