Catt|emen Drive a Band of Sheep
Off the Range.
MORE TROUBLE FEARED
The Sheep Belong to Messrs. Greenheck
and Degenhart and Are in Charge
of John Buhler-It is Claimed
They Ruin the Range.

Last Sunday evening party OF masked
men called at the ranch Of John Buhler
in Antelope basin and ir formed the old
gentleman that they had come to move
the sheep out of there. Two masked men
came to cabin and, when in response to
their knocking Buhler opened the door
he looked down the barrel of a gun. He
told his visitors not to shoot, that he had
no money, and their reply was that1t was
not money but the sheep they were after.
They fired signal shot, after which the
Others, some fifteen or sixteen in number,
who had remained out of sight, came in
and took charge of the sheep and pro-
ceeded to drive thsm towards Philips.
burg. In the meantime the two men
who stood guard over Buhler examined
his guns and after satisfying themselves
that he was not armed permitted him to
go out in the pasture and catch his horse.
He came on towards town with
his callers, but they carefully guarded
him, until they had the sheep corraled
at Rupp q Greenheck's S slaughter house
several miles west of the city. Buhler
tnen came on to town and told of his ex-
perience.
The sheep are owned by August Green
heck and l.. G. Degenhart, who purchas-
ed them in Eastern Montana and brought
them here during the summer Buhler
is an old resident of this county He
owns a small ranch in antelope but earns
his living herding sheep and makes hls
headquarters, corralling the sheep there
over night. The cattlemen object to the
presence of the sheep, as they ruin the
range, and the feeling is quite bitter be-
tween the cattle and sheepmen. Tues
day, Buhler again started for the Ante
lope basin with the sheep and further
trouble is anticipa ed.
Buhler is over 60 years of age, and is a
veteran of the civil war He states that
on account of his age heis not able to do
had work and intends to continue MAX
ing living by herding sheep. "Some of
these nights" said he 'you may hear of
old Buhler being killed. but he is not
afraid and will die like man"
Louis Haspelt. the vetern placer miner
from Willow creek, went out to Antelope
with Buhler to repair fences and do otner
work about the camp. The placer min
ing season is over and he may stop all
winter at Buhler's place.

BIame for Killing ward.

blame for Killing Ward.
Charleston, S. c., Aug. 2S.-Michael
Keegan, a night Waterman SIS years of
age, who was charged with the killing
of James NJ. Ward, a young cotton
buyer, was exonerated by the coroner
Jury at the inquest to-day. The testi-
mony showed that a party of young
men who had been out sailing and
several of whom were drunk attacked
the aged Waterman because he remon-
strated at the disturbance they were
causing.
One man had knocked Keegan down
and another was helping to hold him
when he got his pistol and fired. Ward,
who was running up at the time. was
hit. His friends made it appear to-
day that he was anxious to get into
the fray as a peacemaker. Keegan
was beat over the head and was bloody
and bruised when he was lifted from
the ground.
1t was clear from the testimony that
Keegan shot in self defense and he
was released from Jail this afternoon.
Ward and the young men who had
sailed with him were prominently con-
nected in the city. but it was known
that members of the party were drunk
and boisterous when Ward was killed.

Yellow Pine in Demand and Prices

Triton, Ca, Aug. 2s.-The regular
monthly meeting of the Georgia Saw
Mill Association was held in the par
lors of the Hotel Sadie yesterday az
ternoon, President H. H. Tiff presiding
with Secretary F. E. Waymen and
full attendance of officers present.
About fifty mills were represented by
the thirty-six members present.
There was a buoyant, enthusiastic
feeling among the mill men present,
and general satisfaction with the pro-
gress of the work was expressed. A
nest unusual demand for manufac-
tured yellow pine was reported, the
greatest ever known for this season.
Mills report full orders for from one
to four months, and many are declin-
ing TO make new contracts.
The labor situation, which was the
subject of much discussion at the last
meeting, was reported as improving.
although still far from satisfactory.
Continued rains have seriously inter-
ferred with the logging of many of the
mills, and are estimated to have re-
duced the output from 25 to 30 per cent
for the month past.
Comparison of reports shows that
practically all mills are receiving the
associations full list prices, and some
are receiving better. Prices on coast
wise, or timber lists, were advanced
81 per thousand feet, to meet present
selling prices. There was no change in
the interior or dressed stock lists, as
present prices are in accord with the
demand. Sales are steady and good.
President H. H. Tiff. Vice Presi-
dent William B. Stillwell, and Secre-
tery F. E. Wagner were appointed a
committee to represent the association
during lumbermens week at the Pam
American Exposition, and to attend all
meetings held during that time in the
lumbermens interest. 1t is probable
that at least two members of this
committee will attend the Hoo Hoo
annual convention. to be held in Nor
folk. Sept. to 13, going from there
to Buffalo.
The next regular meeting will be held
in Triton, at Hotel Sadie, on Tuesday,
Oct. 5, at which a fun attendance is
urged. The railroad fare and hotel
bill of one representative from each
mill will be paid by the association,
1t is very probable that the follow
ing, or November meeting. will be held
in Savannah during the State Fair.
