RIGHTS OF a HORSE.
Animals Rescued by the Humane So
ciety Caused a Lawsuit.


ciety Caused a Lawsuit.
For the first time in the history Of
the state Of Colorado the right of a
horse as being entitled to sufficient
food and proper shelter at his masters
expense is to be tested before the
courts. with the Humane Society up
holding the horses side of the case.
The facts of the case are as follows:
During the extereme cold weather and
period Of deep SHOWS last January,
Agent Bailey received reports that
there was a band of horses, thirteen
or fourteen I'm number, twelve miles
up in the mountains from Wauneta,
and that the animals were showed in
and starving to death. They had been
turned out by their owner to shift for
themselves during the winter With
companion he made a trip on snow
shoes to the place, and after consider
able difficulty found the animals. They
were in the heavy timber The snow,
five or six feet deep on a level, they
had packed down by tramping about,
so that they were shut in by the white
walls of snow several feet high, form
ing a yard" such as the elk make in
the aspen thickets during the winter.
Ihe poor beasts were terribly enact
ated, and in the last extremities OF
starvation.
Agent Bailey and his companion re-
turned to Wauneta and went back on
snowshoes as soon as possible with
hay for the all but famished animals.
One or two died from cold and priva-
tion, in spite of the efforts OF the two
men. 1t was three weeks before a path
could be beaten to the town and the
horses able to travel They we're then
taken to Wauneta, and their owners,
known from the brands on the horses,
notified.
Agent Bailey demanded from each
owner pay for the food taken to the
horses and tne necessary expense in
removing them from the mountains
This was refused by the owners, and
the horses were held by the agent. A
suit to replevin was then instituted
by the owners for the recovery of the
horses.
This is the case as it stands, and
the decision of the court will deter
mine whether or not horse that has
been left by his owner to starve dur
ing the winter may contract a board
bill for which the master is liable, and
in a large degree fix the relations oi
owner and owned.-Denver Post.

From the indications 1t looks as If the

oil Most of this land, before the dis

"The oil is ma ing a great change
in California industrial enterprises.
Coal, you know. is nightly expensive
out there. Now hut little coal is used.
The Santa Fe Railroad uses oil to run
its locomotives. The Southern Pacific
will change from coal to oil very soon.
They tell me that with oil so cheap
and coal so high the difference in the
cost of running a locomtive for a sin-
gle day is $50 in favor of oil If we
could get coal at SO ton, delivered
where we want it, oil would still he

GOLD IN JAPAN.
Old Dlggers Say There Is a Regular
Klondike There.

Gold Is now being found in large
quantities at HoizEaido. in the prov
lnce Of Kitaml in Japan. A territory
embracing six hundred and fifty
square miles, the central point OF
which is Mount Horo- Noborn. Is being
worked and with such splendid results
that old diggers have styled It the
japanese KlOndike. Almost all the
gold is found in little pools and
streams, which have their source in
Mount Horo-NobOrn.
Until recently there was only a
small village in this district, the in
habitants of which numbered about
four hundred, whereas to-day there
is a fiourishing city with a population
of more than eight thousand AS to
the exact yield Of gold up to the pres
ent It is not easy TO obtain reliable
for the reason that the diggers are
very reticent on the subject evidently
fearing that IL their good fortune be-
comes generally known, host of ad-
venturers will flock to Hokkaido from
all parts of the world. 1t is certain,
however, that one company, which
has been buying gold from the dlggers
has exported nine hundred kilo-
grammes of the pure metal within the
past nine months.
The gold is obtained in the most
primitive manner and much more easi-
ly than is the case in other well
known gold fields. The climatic con-
ditions at Hokkaido are also excep-
tionally favorable for this work The
right to search for gold can be pur-
chased from the government for a
small sum- yet it is said that many of
the present diggers have paid nothing
and that the ten policemen who are
empowered to sell concessions find it
impossible to collect a cent from many
of those who are daily gathering up
gold from the beds of the small pools
and streams.-N. Y. Herald.

Papers received by the last Austral-
ian mail gives particulars of the final
work Of winding up a syndicate whose
profits are probably the largest on
record. In June. 1898, ten Adelaide
men subscribed $75 each to form the
Coolgardie Prospecting Syndicate,
which sent mining prospectors to
West Australia. Several rich proper
ties, including the Great Boulder, the
Associated Gold Mines, the Ivanhoe
and the Lake View were discovered.
For these the syndicate received in
cash $7,5OO.OOO. and a number of
shares which. If capitalized at present,
would realize about S45, 900 900.

THE TWO COLONELS.
Bryan and Roosevelt Review Chicago
Labor Day Parade.


Special to the Bee.
Chicago, Sept. 3.-Organized labor in
Chicago today passed in review before
Colonel William j. Bryan and Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt. Hour after hour
labor unions passed down Michigan ave-
nue. past the Auditorium hotel, on the
loggia of which stood the democratic
nominee for president and the republi-
can vice presidential candidate, together
with Charles A. Towne and Senator
VIM. b. Mason and dozen other polti-
cal leaders. Both Bryan and Roosevelt
were heartily greeted by the men as they
marched past the hotel
When the last man of the long line of
marchers had swung around Michigan
avenue into Jackson boulevard Colonel
Bryan and Colonel Roosevelt went in
side the hotel, where soon after they sat
down to luncheon given by the labor
representatives. 1t was Il flag of truce"
luncheon, for the trades union men had
decided that in the celebration of Labor
day there was to be no political excite
ment.
While the parade was moving host
of people, mostly families of working
men, gathered in Electric park, where
the speeches of the day were delivered
Both Bryan and Roosevelt spoke.

For the Various Offices Heinze Doesn't
Stand MICH Show Committees
Will Decide.

Special to the Bee.
Helena, Sept. 3.-Thc hotel lobbics
are booming lively with arriving delega
tions to the republican state convention
that will be held in the Auditorium,
Wednesday. Incoming trains today
brought quite a number of delegates.
The bulk of the delegates will arrive to-
morrow. Already the usual caucussing
that precedes big political convention
is going on. There is regulation crop
of anti-convention rumors as to whom
this delegation or that delegation will
support. The interest centers at present
in the meeting of the state central COM
mittee tomorrow night, when it will be
decided which of the Butte delegations
shall be entitled to participate in the
convention. Judging from the drift of
opinion prevalent among the delegates
already here, the Heinzc delegation will
not get much consolation from the con-
vention.
The following are some of the candi-
dates most prominently mentioned: Gov
ernor, Senator Folsom and Henry FL
ling; Secretary of State A. N. Yoder,
Butte; z. T. Burton, Teton county;
State Treasurer Joe V. Long, Butte;
Mayor Edwards, Helena; N. j. Isdell,

Latest Dispatch From China Is
Two Weeks Old.
AWAITING A REPLY.
1t Is Believed Other Powers Are IRVING
to Induce Russia to Change
Her Mind.

Special to the Bee
London, Sept. 4, 4::N a. m.-The latest
reliable Pekin date is now nearly fort
night old. An undated dispatch has
been received at Vienna reporting that
the allied troops marched through the
imperial palace, August %, but it was
known that this date had been fixed by
the allied commanders for formal prom
enade. There is no other news of any
kind. The Daily News suggests editor
tally that Russia may have made secret
terms with China behind the backs of
the powers. The Standard expresses
qualification at the explanation that the
United States government does not ap-
prove of Russias proceedings.
Washington, Sept. "A dispatch was
received from Minister Conger by the
state department today. It was chiefly
interesting in being the first word from
him since his dispatch of the 9th refer
ring to the proposed parade of troops
through the imperial palace in Pekin.
Like that dispatch, this is dateless as to
Pekin. The contents were not made
public, but it was stated that it con-
tanned nothing materially changing the
situation.
1t can not be learned that there has
been any marked advancement of nego
tiations between the powers touching
the withdrawal of the international
forces from Pekin. The present indica-
tion is that the powers are acting upon
information conveyed in the last note of
the state department and are bringing
all their influence to bear upon Russia
to induce Russia to change her mind as
to withdrawing her troops.

Bath, Maine, Sept. 3.-Arthur Sewall,
democratic candidate for vice president
in 1896, is in critical condition at his
summer home at Small Point, 16 miles
from this city. Mr.. Sewall was seized
with an attack of appoplexy at 10 o'clock
last night, and has been unconscious
most of the time since then. News was
received from Small Point at noon today
to the effect that the chance for his re-
covery is slight, and the condition of Ar
thur Sewall at midnight was unchanged.
He had not regained consciousness and
it was stated by his physicians that there
were absolutely no hopes of his recovery.
His death is expected at any moment,
and he will probably not come out of the
stupor in which he has laid since
stricken. The family are about his bed

Great Falls, Sept 1.-The Cascade re-
publican convention met in this city TO
day. w. r. Glasscock was elected chair
man and G. Il. Beal secretary. Contrary
to the expectations raised by the boasts
of the Clark Heinze boosters, the pro-
ceedings were harmonious throughout.
and even when the First ward contest
ing delegation was thrown out the report
was adopted unanimously and without
dissenting voice. The resolutions which
were adopted unanimously, praise the
administration and in scorching terms,
condemn the Clark Heinze outfit for
their attempts to gain control of the
party by means of the lavish use of
money and also condemn w. A. Clark
for his debauchery of the state legisla-
lature. The legislative candidates are
pledged to vote for none but republicans.
The Spanish war volunteers of the state
are given praise for their services.
That portion of the resolutions refer
ring particularly to the Clarke -Heinze
effort to do business with the republican
party is as follows:
The dishonorable attempt now being
made under the direction of w. A.
Clark and f. August Heinze, assisted by
bribery. fraud, and corruption. to dis
rupt the republican party in Cascade
county merits, and will receive, the
sternest rebuke from all honest, fair
minded people of whatever party,
I'VE hereby pledge our five candidates
republicans for United States senators,
first, last and on every ballot, and thus
save the state and the republican party
from the disgraceful schemes perpetrated
in the last legislature.
