SWANS Shccp-Nit.

Through much effort and considerable
expense the city marshal of Leadville,
rescued two of five mountain sheep that
were starving in the snow near Lead
vile. Before help arrived three of the
sheep had persisted. The two rescued
were saved by careful nursing, and now
comes Game Warden Swan and de.
mands thot the marshal shall surrender
the sheep to the state, because the law
provides that the capture of mountain
sheep is illegal. The marshal stands
pat and will not give the sheep to Swan,
ualess he is paid his price for the labor
anb expenses. Swan apparently has a
great penchant for interfering after the
deed is done, whether the act be good
or bad.-Glenwood Avalanche.

constitute source Of knowledge that
no single intellect can exhaust in life
time, and fountain head from which
all can drink and daily grow wiser and
better. At any rate these books form
the best foundation for every library,
and in reading, as in building, good
foundation is essential. They are also
authorative guides, each in its sphere.

biography Of the former mistress of

birth of the last child that there was
no boy in the family. It seemed to her
to imply lack of appreciation Of her
three little girls. A friend, who is mar

house one day, and when the children

HAUG CASE APPEALED.

1l<AC" C.ASlL Al J. = I'LL
The case of Mrs. Jacob Haug against
the Great Northern will be appealed
to the United States court Of appeals,
one notch lower than the highest court
in the land. Attorney 1nwaldsOn sub
mitted his briefs to the circuit court on
Monday, says the Fargo Argus.
The Haug case is an interesting one.
Two years ago Haug, who was some

home at Cummings. The conductor

and closed up. lit was a bitter cold
night and Hang started to walk to
HillsbOrO. He was found frozen to
death in the morning.
Judge Pollock dismissed the action
for $1,000 damages and the supreme
court sent it back for trial. A rehear-
ing was given and the supreme court
took the same view of the case as be-
fore. 1t was tried and again reached
the federal court. where it was de-
cided in favor of the railroad company
and against the plaintiff Haug on a
technicality. Now an appeal is asked
to the. next higher court. The pro-
gress of this action is being watched
with much interest owing to there
being no cast of a similar character
yet decided in the courts.

turned in smoke and flames were seen
issuing from the building, and Mrs.
Riley, who was just preparing to re-
tire for the night when the flames
burst in upon her, setting her night
clothing atire, rushed out Of the build
ing and across the street toward the
residence of Charles Pierce. Her
clothing was in flames and as she
started back across the street again,
John Richie and others seized her
and succeeded in eXtinguishing the
flames, but not until she had been
badly burned about the face and body.
Her hair was singed and her hands
also severely burned. She was taken
at once to the hospital, where her in
juries at first appeared so serious that
her statement of the matter was taken
by Attorney r. n. Stevens.
The flames originated in the real Of
the building at sometime between IL
and II O'clock. The fire seems to
have started near the kitchen for
the flames burst into that room upon
Mrs. Riley. AS soon as the alarm
was turned in the fire department re-
sponded and the flames in the house
were 500 eXtinguished, although the
interior and it's furnishings We're prac-
tically ruined by the water.
On the statement Of Mrs. Riley last
night Mills Beach was detained by the
police pending an investigation. Mrs.
Riley stated that she was asleep on
the sofa when she heard the glass
crack and smelled smoke. She r0se
and went out to the kitchen which
she found aflame. She stated also
that as she looked out the window she
saw Beech moving away from the
house. She says that she went to
the front door and found it locked and
then made her escape through the
kitchen in this way setting her cloth
ing atire.
Mr.. Beech when seen about the mat
ter stated that he came to town last
evening with Henry Ode and went at
once to his house and was in bed
when the fire alarm sounded and that
he saw the fire from his window with
his wife. Mrs. Beech makes a state
ment c%orroborating the statement Of
Mr.. Beech and the statement Of Ode
will be taken this afternoon.
The condition Of Mrs. Riley is quite
serious, as the burns are extensive,
but, it will be several days yet before
it can be ascertained how dangerous
are her injuries.

been very seriously injured by jumping
from a moving train near the former
station. His injuries are reported as
not necessarily fatal.
According to the report, he was

the intense heat caused temporary
mental alteration. He got through
a sleeping window while the train
was going forty miles an hour, his
wife being unable to restrain him.

HARD TIME AT MORONG.


The North Dakota boys appear to
have had Il pretty tough time at
Morong. A Company II boy writing
from that place on July 8 said:
The North Dakota regiment left Mo-
rong July It'll. We were only about
$50 strong and hardly that many men
fit for duty. The rest of the regi-
ment were in. Manila sick. or at least
ailing. In fact there was hardly a
good sound man in the regiment as al
most every one of us was ailing with
some complaint. The place is very
unhealthy. About three weeks ago
the Chinese cook Of Company X died
and the disease was pronounced chol-
era. We moved to another quarter
of the city and burned all the build
ings that were not absolutely needed
to live in. A Chinaman who had
been with the one who died was
placed in quarantine and tents secured
from Manila for a pesthouse. But
the disease did not spread.
