OF all natures extremes in the way
of weather, the hot wave is doubtless
~. the most costly.
weather bureau OBJ
wave. server has estima-
ted that the loss in Iowa alone occa-
stoned by the hot wave of 1894 amounts
ed to $5O,000.000, or nearly twice the |
property loss of the Galveston disaster.
The estimate was based upon COM
parison of the average value OF the
crops of Iowa with their reduced value
that year, after they had experienced
the blighting effects of extreme and
protracted heat. The financial loss
from hot waves is, besides, only one
form of the misery they inflict, says
Youths Companion. Poor humanity
must swelter under them from in
fancy to old age. Although the sum-
mer drought is naturally associated in
are quite distinct in their operations.
Most crops, when affected by drought
alone, will rapidly revive it favorable
weather comes within reasonable
time, but if their vitality has been
baked out by excessive heat no amount
of moisture cam restore it. Corn and
cotton, at critical stages in their deyel-
opment, are perhaps the greatest suf-
ferers, although both crops ordinarily
need rather high tempera ture. Ex-
tremes of cold usually come at time
when man has intrusted little of value
to the banking house of nature. Deli
cate shrubs and trees may suffer, as do
the Florida oranges, from an unseason-
able frost, but the great staples OF
agriculture are, as a rule, unaffected.
Moreover, man is better able to keep
himself in comfort against the ex-
tremes of winter than against those Of
summer.

Such a Dainty Little Fairy.
She is dainty little thing,
Most delicate and fine,
The mistress of all witching arts,
She thrills my blood like wine.
I love to watch her as she sits
In church, so sweet and pure,
Or in devotion bows her head.
Seraphic and demure.
She's such dainty little thing
That one would never think
Her mind could possibly descend
To thoughts of food and drink.
But, truth to tell. she's very fond
OF Holsters and sardines,
And in the country once ! saw
Her eat three plates of beans!

IN THE REALM OF POETRY.

The Girl with the. Hoe.
Adown through the Lone Star cotton lands.
IN the fields wherever go
She Is there. she is fair, she is everywhere
The matchless girl with the hoe!
And love to think as ride the lanes.
And she leans on her hoe and looks.
OF the times gone by and the Muller tale
That I read In my childhoods books
"a form more fair and face more sweet
Are words that ever occur.
And again and over find myself
Applying the line to her.
She may not see In the skies of night
The things that a Lockyer sees;
She may be blank on Plato's themes
AS she Is on the Pleiades.
But she plants tho flowers in tho old homo
yard.
And not on the sands of Mars;
And she gives her love to the folks at home.
While Tesla talks to the stars. >.
A soldier brave in the bloodless war
That makes for the good of men.
She wields a weapon of higher worth
Than the man with the sword OF the pen.

Reported to Have Been Seen Near Res

Mount ain sheriff Davis
Returns After
FruitlcSS
Search.

Word was received here on Monday
morning in a round about way that
Charles Green, slayer of Jim Baker
and fugitive from justice, was seen by
BLACK" Perry, line rider on the
reservation fence on the afternoon OF
July o. He was afoot and headed for
Wyoming. AS over week had passed
before word of Green's whereabouts
reached him, Sheriff Davis wired to
Big Horn for Perry to meet him there
The sheriff and Under Sheriff Lyndes
went to Big Horn, but failing to meet
Perry went west to Custer station and
there run onto the first real clew they
have had as to the wherea bouts of
Green. The section boss at Bull
Mountain, this side of Pompey's Pill
lar. said that a man answering
Green's description had passed there
four days before on foot and said he
was going to Wyoming. He was
shown a picture Of Green and said he
thought it was the same man but was
not positive.
Sheriff Davis then went across coun-
try to the Cody branch and searched
one Of the camps but found no trace of
his man. Leaving Under Sheriff
Lyndes to continue the search he re-
turned home, reaching here yesterday
morning. 1t is the opinion of Sheriff
Davis that he will get into Wyoming
at the first opportunity.
It now seems clear that Green
skipped the town on the night of the
murder, a supposition that only deep
ems the mystery of the Occidental Ho-
tel fire, as the theory of the officials
has been that the fire was a sequel
event with the murder.
II Green is headed for the Hole in
the Wall country, the mecca of all
fvgitives IN this region, he will be
handicapped by his lack of knowled ge
of the country he must travese, and
may betray himself yet.

CALAMITY'S

New York journal Runs Her Down in
the Park and Demands Privl-
lege of Providing for
Her Old Age.

Mrs. Josephine Winfield Brakes. a
handsome and talented newspaper
woman whose splendid journalistic
work has won for her an important
position on the New York Journal,
was visitor in Livingston last week
on peculiar mission. Her trip to
Montana was for the purpose of Iocat-
ing Calamity Jane, a character well
known to every frontiersman, and OBJ
tain her consent to accept a free home,
the gift of the Journal. With the as
sistance of Del Anderson, of the Liv-
ingston Post, Jane was located in the
Yellowstone Park and brought to Liv-
ingston. AS Jane has had d rocky
road to travel since the charm of youth
has departed, she gladly snapped up
the offer and is doubtless now enjoying
the excitement OF the Pan American
exposition at Buffalo.

salvation in many a battle. Dressed
in the buckskin clothing of scout,

On Wednesday morning Judge Loud
wired bis approval and Mr.. Hammond
took a seat on the beard.
There will doubtless be MANY sur
prised taxpayers IL Rosebud county
this week when they receive notice of
the raise in their assessments. This
raise includes nearly all classes of
property but especially relates to town
DTS. In only two instances have the
assessments on property been reduced,
but there have been numerous changes
in the assessed valuation of vacant
on actual valuations, and while the
large holders Of vacant property will
probably kick, the figures fixed by the
board will doubtless prove satisfac-
tory to the people at large.
Besides going over the work already
accomplished by the assessor, the
board has learned of considera BILE tax
able property in the county not shown
in the returns and will take steps at
once to investigate these finds. 1t is
known that several big cattle outfits
that have heretofore paid their taxes
in Custer county are grazing their
stock on the north side in this county,
and their taxes shonld be paid here.
1t is thought that when these are To-
Gated about $500, 900 will be added to
the assessment totals.
The returns from the railroads have
not vet been received and will help
swell the total to the three million
mark. The Northern Pacific will
foot up about $500, 900 and the Burling-
ton 100000. Fifteen miles of side
track in this county have been SUR
veyed by County Surveyor Chas. B.
