CAN'T KILL THEM.
Colorado Farms Being Devastated
by wild Ducks.

by Wild Ducks.
DENVER, Col, Aug. 2S-TVild ducks in
the grain raising section of the San Luis
valley have become a serious pest. The
farmers are prevented by law from ex-
terminating them, and have applied to
the state game warden for relief. Their
crops, they say, are being destroyed.
The trouble began about five years ago,
when a number Of ducks established
themselves on lake formed by the over
flow of a huge artesian well. This lake
is the largest body Of standing water
in that region. It's owner forbids hunt
ing under the penalty of trespass.
Under these favorable circumstances
they have multiplied with amazing rapid
ity. until now it is reported that hun
dreds of thousands of them make their
home in this one body of water. When
the vast f1ocks arise from the lake they
have the appearance of a great black
cloud obscuring the light of the sun.
For miles around the lake the grain
fields are visited daily by the ducks, and
their work is almost as destructive as
that of locusts. AS the game season is
not yet open the farmers can not shoot
them, even in their own fields, without
violating the law. AS last resort the
farmers have sent one of their number
20 Denver to seek relief from the state
authorities, and he is now in Denver
awaiting the return of the game warden

HOW IT WAS EGAN'S LOSS
SOME WAR DEPARTMENT coRRE-
SPONDENCE REVIVED BY FIRE.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-Since the old
post traders building at Fort Smelling
was destroyed by fire a few DAYS ago,
the war department has been looking up
its history.
More than ten years ago instructions
were issued from Washington establish
ing a board of officers to examine and
appraise the post traders building and
report to the department as to its value
for government barracks and quarters.
This board consisted of the following:
Col Edwin C. Mason, Third infantry;
Lieut.. Col. William F. Drum, Twelfth in
fantry; Capt. Francis B. Jones, assistant
quartermaster
The board met in March, $780, and. after
due investigation, reported in favor of
purchasing the building for garrison pur-
poses, and their report was submitted to
Gen. Ruger, then commanding the DEPART
ment Of the Dakotas.
The matter drifted along for some years
until 1898, when the following report from
the quartermaster general was sent in to
the secretary of war:
1.-THE main facts in the case are as fol-
lows: A board of survey was convened
pursuant to special order No. 49, head
quarters department of Dakota. dated ST.
Paul. March II, 1890, to examine and APP
praise the post traders buildings at Fort
Smelling. They were appraised as fol-

'The department commander recon-
mends the purchase of the main building

| to the secretary of war by the quarter
master general, when funds for next
| fiscal year are available. This was ap-
proved by the secretary of war May q,
| 1890
Subsequent to this date and before the
funds of the next year were available
| the treasury officials decided that funds
pertaining to the appropriation for bar
racks and quarters could not be used for
the purchase of post traders buildings;
in consequence the purchase as autho lied
by the honorable secretary of war was
not cOnSummated.
"a, 1891, making appropriation for the sup
port Of the army for the year ending June
80, 1892, provides for the purchase by the
/ secretary Of war of buildings erected at
permanent army posts by private parties
under proper authority, and which may
be suitable and actually necessary for the
army service, at prices to be fixed by the
secretary of war. Buildings are situated
at the old post of Fort Smelling, about
three-quarters of mile from the new
post. On account of this distance, and
for the further reason that buildings are
not actually necessary for the army serv-

Great Western TrDinmen Favor DEL

OELWEIN, To-, Aug. 2s.-Dubuque has
practically been made a way station on
the Chicago Great Western.
Beginning Monday, Aug. 20 freight
train crews were given orders to run
from Oeiwein to Chicago on the fast
freight and from Oelwein to Stockton
Ill, on the way freights.
This order means that the twenty train
crews or 100 men, now running into Du-
buuue viii run into Oelwein and Stock
ton, H.
All the men in the roundhcuse and yards
at Dubuque have either been laid off or
transferred to Qe,wein or Stockton, and
the roundhouse machinery viii be moved
The change Is Of great advantage to
Oelwein and 1t win necessitate the re-
moval here of a large number of train
men, with their families.
Dubuque has been the headquarters for
all the trainmen on the two eastern d.
visions. Tte men have run first in first
out of Dubuque to Ooelwein and to Chica-
go, Now they are running first in first
out of Oelwein- They are likely to catch
a fast freight and run through to Chi
cago or as likely to catch a way freight
and stop at Stockton. Ill. So 1t will be
seen that Oelwein will be the logical point
of residence for all men on the eastern
divisions
