DIED DOING THEIR DUTY
SHEEP HERDERS WHO TRIED TO
GUARD THEIR EMPLOYERS FLOCKs.
Nine Known to Have Perished I'm the
Terrible Blizzard which Swept
Over Montana Last Week.

GREAT FALLS, Mont, Oct. 25.-If any
one has concluded that the time has passed
when the servant Is as faithful to the in
terests Of his master as he could be to his
own he should consider the story of the re-
cent blizzard which swept through Teton
county. in the northern part of this State,
a county given UP to the raising of sheep
and cattle. AS a result of that storm nine
men are known TO be dead and of these five
bodies have been recovered. With one ex-
ception all were sheep herders and all were
found lying in such positions as to indicate
that they had stayed with their bands to the
last, dying in their attempts to save the
property of their employers.
William Graham. working for the Cascade
Land Company, was found in a coulee near
Healy bate. 1t is evident that he had
tried hard through the night to get HIS sheep
into camp, but had not succeeded. Con-
scious of the death which was impending
he returned to his tent about midnight and
there wrote and left note saying he was
nearly exhausted. but was about to return
to the sheep, which were drifting up the
coulee. He was found stretched on the
snow, his lantern about twenty feet dis
tant. OF his two dogs one remained to
guard the body while the other followed the
Sneep. Tie was unmarried ana recently SAID
he had not a relative In the world.
Norman Bruce worked for Will Floweree.
1e remained with his sheep until he man.
aged TO drive them into a sheltered spot
where they would be safe. Blinded by the
storm he missed the coulee where his cabin
was built and wandered up another. Re-
alizing his mistake too late he turned back
and fell less than two hundred yards from
bis home and safety. The searching party
found his dog stretched across the dead
body. Bruce was unmarried and native
of Prince Edward Island.
Matt Gregorich was found with his arms
crossed upon his breast. His dog had fol-
lowed the sheep into camp and returned
with the rescue party too late
III. Herald, working for c. r. Scotfin was
lying In the deep snow. his beard eaten
off by the sheep, which had also eaten his
clothes and part OF his boots.
This is only a portion OF the pathetic
side of the disaster and the fidelity of one
herder is probably greater than any
other. IL Is probable the death list Is hard
ly begun. Bands of sheep without herders
have been reported from various points in
the storm district and later these will be
traced and the dead herders found. The
snow covers up everything on the prairie
and the coulees, many OF them more than
one hundred feet deep with steep sides are
filed with II. Without exception this was
the most severe and most fatal October
storm ever occurring I'm Montana.

SUPPORTS .M'KINLEY'S POLICY
Bishop Doane Favors Protection Of
the Philippine Islands.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-. Oct. 25.-Bishop Doane
of Albany. N. Y, in his address before the
Protestant Episcopal Missionary Council,
now in session here. came out squarely in
support of the policy of the administration
in taking the Philippines under national
protection. He said: ITO my mind there
were but four unalterable alternatives. We
were obliged either to leave the islands un-
der Spanish control, for a renewal of hos
tiities; We were obliged TO leave them to
destroy themselves in internecine strife;
We could have left them to be fought over
by European nations, or We could have
assumed the position of protectors of the
islands. l see no other conclusion and the
fourth alternative was the only one which
ought to have been taken. We did take it
and this great trust must be administered"
Missionaries from Cuba and Porto Rico
presented the needs of the people of those
islands, and after some discussion il was
decided to send a bishop to the latter
island.

Emergency Field Telegraphy.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Lieutenant Col

embassy here has been comforting with the
Var Department authorities as to the
method of field telegraphy which might be

however. are not at the disposal of foreign
governments. The understanding at the
