Describing events prior to the relief,
the Morning Post correspondent cables:
"On August IT, the Tsung Ii Yamen

longest fusilade of the whole siege. 1t

forbidden firing on us and would court
martial any who disobeyed During the

that her present revenues are pledged.

She informed her employer just prior

CUTTING AFFRAY.

From w. T. Peryam Of Encampment
the Saratoga Sun learns that a man by
the name of George Lobmier cut Noil
Bouisa on the face last Saturday. cut
ting him clear to the bone down the
side of his face.
Lobmier claims that Bouisa, who
owed hin a board bill. came to his res
taurant a couple Of times, taking some
boarders away with him each time, to
another house. No one knows how the
cutting took place as Bouisa would not
prosecute and as the man pleaded gull
ty to an assault he was fined according
ly.
It is thought the cutting may turn
out seriously yet, as it Is said that Lob
mier is an all around bad man. The
quarrel started when the men were
working at the Ferris-Haggarty mine

THIS CAT SCARED A KING.
Joseph Bonaparte was Frustrated with
Terror at the Sight of a Kitten.

Even royalty was not unknown to
Saratoga Springs" writes William Per-
rine Of 'The Fashionable Summer Re-
sorts of the Century" in the Ladies'
Home Journal. Joseph Bonaparte,
the ex-king Of Spain. was so delighted
with the humble hermitage of Bar
hydt's' that he offered the old Dutch
mar who owned the place twenty
thousand dollars for it. One of the
Bonaparte traditions Of the United
States hotel, as told by Colonel Will
liam L. Stone of New York, is that
when the deposed monarch with his
daughters and retinue was there he
was thrown into CONSERVATION n day
while at dinner. exclaiming: I'm chat!

but none could be seen: Joseph, how

Thursday morning fourteen machin-
lists resigned their positions in the
Cheyenne shops, says the Leader. The
men, for the most part, are old timers,
many having served their time here.
Soma will go to California, while it
is probable hal John Cole will accept
a position offered him in Old Mexico,
in which event, a number who resigned
will go with him.
The men were approached by a re-
porter and refused to be interviewed,
stating that they had no complaint to
make. but simply wanted t quit to ac-
cept positions in other parts of the
country.
1t was learned, however, from those
who did not quit, that upon Mr.. John

onto him, taking his club from him and
beating him over the head, knocking
him to the ground, when they started
to run. He got on his feet and called
on them to stop, pulling his gun at the
same time. AS they did not stop he
brought one Of them down with a shot
through the arm at or near the shout

FOR WATER.

From a prominent Brush creek
ranchman who was in Saratoga recent
ly the Sun learned that the tie drive,
which is now going down Brush creek,
will work considerable hardship to the
ranchmen in that vicinity. The ties
and debris which comes with them
keep the %headgates to the bitches SO
clogged up that the water will not run
through, consequently the hay crop
must suffer.
This gentleman said hat he will be
damaged to the extent Of $500 or $500
and that a number of the ranchmen
will be damaged as much if not more.
Now, while Of course a great many
reports like this are exaggerated, there
must be a great deal in the kick against
the tie business as the same story is
told every place the ties are driven
down. Over in the Medicine Bow coun-
try the ranchmen have the same trou-
BILE, and they say that so many ties
have been cut out of the mountains at
the head of the Medicine Bow river that
it has materially affected the water sup
ply Of that country, the water giving
out long before they are through irri-
cation.
1t seems that the profits in this bust
ress are rather lop-sided and the dam
age done is so far reaching in compari-
son with the benefits accruing from 1t
that there should be something done to
even things up a little.
The water on Brush creek has al
ready been materially affected and II
this tie business continues it will only
he a matter Of a few years until there
will be no water for late irrigation. The
damage this would work that valley
cannot be underestimated, as the ranch
men on that creek depend entirely Up
on irrigation for their crops.

E. Florence Drown of this city and Mr..
Eugene MacComas of Chicago were
married at the Vermont avenue Chris
tan church last evening. Aside from
being a social event of much import

manufacturer of Chicago, and threw
him over when she discovered that he
was paying alimony to his first wife.

World: Miss Lillian c. Morris, 90
years old, has obtained damages from
the Winchester Repeating Arms Com
pany for injuries resulting in the loss
Of the second and third fingers of her
left hand. A cartridge machine on
which she worked was responsible for
the accident. Miss Morris held that
her skill as a pianist was of no value
to her, as the loss OF the fingers pre-
vented her performing. Her attorneys
in arguing the case declared hat her
chances for marriage were hampered
by the injury and consequent inability
to exercise her powers as a musician.
The machine on which Miss Morris
worked has a history Of misfortune,
being one Of those that exploded and
Injured many persons two years ago.
