sheep was feeding and destroying the

which has been recognized for years.

Cowboy Police.

"Wild steer" is the cry that always
sends tho 'men on reserve" Of the stock
yards police station, at West Forty
seventh and ITalstead streets, hurrying
to q rear room OF the station. says the
Chicago News, In this rear room is
well-equipped armory, containing q
dozen Springfield rifles, several Win.
chester repeaters and no less than than
six sh0tguns. This formidable arsenal
is maintained by the city for the sole
purpose Of enabling the police of the
stock yards district to cope with the
occasional escaped steer, as the ordinary
policeman's pistol and club is of little
use against a mad animal that has made
successful rush for liberty.
About three times month a vicious
steer escapes from the stock Yards pens,
and tho animals appearance on the
streets Is signal for general rush to
shelter. and incidentally q call for the
patrol wagon. The cry of wild steer"
means that Policemen NJ. Costello and
William Gorehagan and Sergeant W. j.
Prindville Immediately shall seize their
special weapons and rapidly drive
toward the neighborhood in which the
steer was last seen. All three Of the
policeman are expert shots and over
Hfty steers have fallen before their
deadly aim.
An escaped steer, after weeks Of
captivity. is not by any means docile
creature, and once free, yet pursued by
bowling cowboys, the animal is almost
certain to become vicious and menace
to the lives OF all within its reach. Ex-
perience has taught the police of the
stock yards district that the only good
steer is q dead steer.

When through little angel crept,
And came down with falling star.
One Summer as tho blessed beams

Awakened from some pleasing dreams
And found that angel by her side.

That when ho leaves this world of pain
He'u wing his way to that bright shore,
And IND the road to heaven agnin.

J.. K. CLARk'S
IDAHO MINES
PURCHASES NEARLY ALL THE
STOCK IN THE KILL BUCK
COMPANY.
SIX OR EIGHT CLAIMS
LOCATED NEAR WALLACE
Fourteen Feet of Ore Exposed-vein
Lost in Previous Working But
Found Again.

The following dispatch from Wallace,
Idaho, to the Spokane Review. under
date of September 3, gives the details of
the mining deal recently engineered by
J. X. Clark:
j. X. Clark, who is interested with his
brother, Senator w. A. Clark of Montana,
in the Sunset mine. has bought the Kill
Buck group. owned by the Kill Buck Min
ing company. The purchase was Of
stock, all but a few shares being included
in the sale. The report is that the con-
Sideration was three cents a share, or on
q basis of $50, 900 for the entire property.
The deal was made after a thorough ex-
animation and was for cash. the full
amount being paid on delivery of the
stock to Mr.. Clark.
The Kill Buck group contains six or
eight claims. covering the vein for up
wards of 900 feet, the remainder of the
ground being in side claims located for
timber and protection of possible apex
rights. The vein is covered for so much
of it's length that it's exact location is UNI
certain in many places. The group is sit
uated IN Lake gulch, between here and
Osburn. about two miles from here and
less than a mile from the O.. r. & u.
track. The Kill Buck and one or two of
the other claims were located years ago
and development work shortly after the
location was made disclosed large bodies
of ore near the top of the hill from
which several carloads of ore We're ship
ped rude. The vein was badly broken
there, however, the ore appearing in
punches, and work was finally suspended
on account of the uncertainty of the con-
dition of the vein, it being evident that
it had all been moved and the location OF
the lower depths being uncertain. Last
spring a company vas incorporated here
to work it and the property was decided
to the company, several additional claims
being located at the same time. Since
then ore has been discovered on two low
err levels and the vein shown up in place.
At one point on the surface there is IA
feet of ore exposed in an open cut, three
feet or more of which, will bear shipping
in it's crude state. Immediately after the
transfer Of the stock supplies were taken
down and the working force increased.

eloquence, %subsiding in other places to
gentle whisperings of love, or homely ex-
pressions approaching the pathetic. The
fun of the play is fast n furious at var
ious points in the story, but at no time
is it allowed to take the interest from the
plot Of the story, which is keenly and
logically arranged and carried out. The
character types are magnificently depict
ed. One of the sweetest dramatic charac-
ters ever drawn is that of "Bossy' in the

new Texa Congressman, is played by
Miss Lizzie Kendall. while the role of
Brander is assumed by James r. Nc
Cam. One of the features of the per-
Torrance is rendered by the original
Texas Steer quartette. AT this time
when politics is uppermost in the public
mind. the production of "A Texas Steer
dealing as it does with the troubles of a

The Oregon Short Line today put on a
new passenger time schedule. which is a
radical departure. Trains will hereafter
leave Butte at 4 p. m. and 4:30 a.. m. in

rive here at sos p. M. and 3 a. m. in
stead of 3 p. m. n 1850 a IN. as hereto
fore.
This change was made because it was
found practically impossible to run on
the old schedule, owing to the delay in
making come ctions at Ogden. The train
due. here at 1850 p in. has been arriving
for months past all the way from two to
three hours late With the schedul time
for arriving at sos p m. it will be easy
to make it and save some hours now lost
in waiting at Ogden.
