FOR FIRING FORESTS
Jesse Turpin and Son Earl of
Granger Under Arrest.
BOTH SHEEP HERDERs
HEARING TODAY MARSHAL
MILLgR'S INVESTIGATIONS.

Jesse Turpin and his 14-year-old son,
Earl, who live at Granger, are under
arrest on the charge of setting fire to
the forests in the vicinity of Brighton.
They were arrested yesterday morn
ing by United States Marshal Glen
Miller, brought to the city last even
ing. and. released on their own recog-
niZance by United States Commissioners
Twomey, who set the preliminary hear
ing for 10 o'clock this forenoon.
Prisoners Are Sheepherders.
Turpin and his son have been herd
ing a flock of sheep in the vicinity of
Brighton for some time past. and the
information which led. to their arrest
was furnished the United States dis
trict attorney, who made out the com
plant, by Joseph Evans of Park City
and Charles A. Lamb, a young man
who has spent the summer at Silver
Lake, and they will appear as wit
nesses against the accused parties at
the preliminary hearing today.
Evans and Lamb claim they saw two
persons start fires in the timber, which
at one time threatened the destruction
of the Brighton resort. Whether their
evidence will be strong enough to con-
Wet TurDin and his boy is a cues
that they will be able to identify them
as the guilty parties.
Marshal Miller spent a couple of DAYS
at Brighton in locating his men and
studying the causes which led to the
late destructive fires. He made it a
point to gather opinions from others.
and he got variety of them. The
blame seems to be showered mostly
upon the sheepmen. Some thought the
fires were caused through malicious
carelessness; others said they had been
started by the sheepherders purposely
to get their focks together after the
sheep became scattered in the timber,
Several claimed the fires were set by
persons stopping at the resort.
After hearing all such stories, the
marshal came TO the conclusion that
the fires have not been caused so much
from righteousness as from careless
ness. In fact, he does not believe there
are many cases where the destruction
of the government forests have been
deliberate.

How to Prevent Fires.

To guard against a repetition of what
has occurred this year, Marshal Miller
outlined a plan to the citizens and
property owners up that way, suggest
ing the formation of a protective league
and offering a standing reward of 500
for the arrest and conviction of any
one, either through negligence or pur-
posely causing the burning of forests
BY this means Marshal Miller is con-
fident people would become more care
full and that there would be less fires.
A great deal Of damage has been
done by the fires in the past couple of
weeks, Mr.. Miller says, but the worst
seems to be over, and he does not be-
heve there is any more damage
threatening Brighton. There are a few
smouldering fires left, but unless they
are famed into life by a high wind
they will soon be eXtinguished. The
greatest damage has been wrought on
what is known as Evergreen Peak.
The weather is getting cold at
Brighton, and the exodus has begun.
Within another week the resort will
be practically deserted. The snow has
entirely disappeared, and as a conse-
quence the mountain streams are near
ly exhausted.

SLIDING.

Fodder corn grown thickly can be
made into a most excellent Stage in
the following manner: Harvest
with the corn binder. Cut to one
half or three-fourtns inch lengths,
distribute carefully throughout the
.silo, using care to pack aloug the
walls and in the corners as solidly
as in the centre of the silo. a can
vas cloth tube attached to the upper
end Of the carrier and moved about,
distributing the silage even over
the surface, helps to prevent that
part on which the silage falls from
becoming more compact than other
portions of the mass. The whole OF
the surface should be constantly and
evenly packed by tramping. While
the work Of SLIDING green corn is
considerable, the labor Of feeding
this finely cut silage in winter is re-
duced TO 9 minimum, and there are
no long stalks giving trouble il the
hangers or in the manure.

THREE TERRIBLE NIGHTS.
Mrs. Payne Tells Of Her Experiences
In Picking.

san Francisco, Oct. 2.-Cecilc L.
Payne, who went to Pciing last spring
Us the guest Of Minister and Mrs. Con.
ger, was a passenger on the steamer
Coptic. She told graphic story OF the
siege OH her arrival here.
"Of the whole eight weeks of terrible
anxiety and dread she said three nights
stand out with special prominence.
They are spoken of by the hcsicgcd rs
the three terrible nights The first
was just before thc sicgc-about juno
: or l3. Ihat was while we werc in
the Amer1cun legation. We went into
fhc British lcga<'On compound on June
20. The night sl>'all OF was one the
foreigners will never >Nrgct All night
long went up terrible crcs-howls and
shouts of thousands upon thousands of
Chinese crying for the blood of the for
eigners.
The second terrible night was about
the middle OF the siege when, after three
or four days Of muggy and sultry
weather one Of the most violent thuu-
derstorms ever experienced broke over
the city. Everybody had predicted that
with the coming OF rain the Chinese
would cease firing, but the effect was
just the opposite. 1t was Il night Of
believing thunder, roaring artillery, in
ceSsant lightning and pouring rain.
The third and last night of horrors
was that of Aug. l3, the day before the
relief came. On that night the Chinese
were fairly frantic to Drcal; il and kill
us.
The firing that had before seemed
furious was tame compared with the
hail of shot and she'll that poured in
upon MS that night. 1t came from all
quarters and seemed TO be from every
imaginable kind of firearms We had
received reports of the approach Of the
relief column and knew that 1t must be
near from the furious attempts of the
Chinese to slay us We expected that
any moment might be our last, as many
breaches were made by shells and Il de-
tcrmincd assault az any one place woull
have opened the way for the hordes out
side. ~
