Two Kansas Cities Separ-
atedby Flood, lnDanger
of Destruction.

Dozens of Men Have Mar
row Escapes From
Death.
ny ASSOCIATED PRESS,

Kansas City, Aug. I5.-Trafiic between
the two Kansas Cities is suspended today,
all the temporary bridges erected after the
great flood in June having been en-
dangered.
The river has been causing more or less
trouble for the last two weeks, the result
of continuous heavy rains west of Kan
sas City.
Last nights heavy rainfall caused the
river to rise a foot. 1t continues to rise
rapidly today and it is predicted that it
will so four feet higher before the waters
finally spread out and the river begins to
subsde.
At Armourdale, which was wiped out in
the June flood, the river is ID feet above
low water mark and seven feet higher
than the lowest mark recorded since June.
1t will have to go IS inches higher to
reach the town proper and the only dam
age possible is to the bridges.
The current is so swift that rowboats
can hardly live in it and there were sew
eral narrow escapes from drowning today
by men employed OH the bridges to keep
the driftwood away.
The stopping Of traffic over the
temporary bridges across the Kansas river
at Kansas City caused rush for the Flow
line bridge which supports the pipe carry
ing the city's water supply.
The gates at each end of the bridge
were torn off in the anxiety OF those seek
ing to escape.

RISKS HER LIFE
To SAVE FRIEND
MISS VIOLA HORGAN, SOCIETY GIRL,
RESCUES MRS. w. w. DIXON
AT BROWNS LAKE.

One of Buttes society girls has made
herself heroine.
But for the prompt action and courage
OF Miss Viola Ilorgan Mrs. w. w. Dixon
would have met death in Browns lake.
Miss Horgan and Miss Dixon have been
spending week or two at the lake as
the guests Of w. A. Clark, Jr.
The accident which nearly cost Mrs.
Dixon her life happened yesterday.
Portions OF the lake shore are steep and
covered with heavy growth OF trees
The Clark cottage is situated near the
bank.
Mrs. Dixon was stepping down the bank,
clnging to the branches OF the trees, when
she lost her footing and fell heavily. 1t
Is thought she struck against a rock in
falling.
There was a scream, splash and the
dark waters OF the lake closed over Mrs.
Dixon's form.
Miss Horgan saw the accident and sprang
to the rescue.
Looking for moment to see Mrs. Dixon
rise to the surface, she scanned the place
where she disappeared from view.
After a moment, when no sight Of the
injured woman could be had, Miss Horgan
sprang into the lake and diyed to the
bottom.
She found Mrs. Dixon lying on the bot
tom and brought her limp form to the sur
face.
Struggling with her apparently lifeless
burden Miss liorgan gained the shore and
called for Help.
With the assistance OF others at the
cottage Mrs. Dixon was taken to the house,
where it was found she had broken AN
arm in falling After some difficulty she
was resuscitated.
There is no doubt in the minds Of those
al Browns lake that but for the presence
and brave action of Miss Horgan Mrs.
Dixon would have been drowned.
Now Resting Easy.
At present Mrs. Dixon is resting easy
at the cottage. Within a few days she
will be brought to Butte.

bought a gun.
Last night, near midnight Gabuto went
to Justice Batterton's to get a warrant for

Both Attacked Him.
At S o'clock this morning the two Tires
went to Gabutos house and laid for him.
AS he came out to go to work the two
jumped at him.
Gabuto backed off, and, drawing his re-
volver, fred twice. Both bullets took ef-
feet in the body of the father, who sank
TO the ground with a groan.
The younger Tire then wrested the
gun from Gabuto's hands and beat him
into insensibility. Believing that both

Daughter Frantic.
Neighbors heard the shots. The police
were summoned and the body of Tire

The frantic Lucia, her father dying, her
brother fugitive and her lover badly
wounded in Jail, may lose her reason.
Moreover, the justice says he means
to have the policeman who told Gabuto
to get gun arrested. -

MURDERED WITH A RE-
VOLVER.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Kansas City, Aug. I5.-Georgc B..
Evans, manager Of the American Transfer
company, murdered his wife, Lille Maude

home in the southern portion OF the city

Mrs Evans was attacked as she lay
asleep. According 10 the hired girl, the
only witness to the tragedy, Evans en-
tered his wifc's apartments at daylight and
fired two shots at her

Neither took effect. Then, dragging
Mrs. Evans toward him by the hair, the
man deliberately placed his revolver
against the back OF her neck and fired. The
shot literally blew the woman's head off.
In the dim light the hired girl was un-
able to recognize the murderer positively
as Evans, but informed the police when
the alarm was given that she believed she
recognized the voice as his.
Evans escaped and his body was found
only after several hon search.
Mrs, Evans, 26 years of age, was So
ciety woman. She was married to Evans
in 1898.

divorce, alleging drunkenness and cruelty,

manding that her husband pay $500 for
the barn occupied by the company of

March during the teamsters strike by
driving one Of her husbands transfer
wagons, which the regular driver refused
to take out Of the barns for fear OF vio-
lence at the hands of the strikers.
Two years ago Mrs. Evans also gained
some notoriety by horsewhipping a man
who had attempted to hirt with her.

PARAMlTA TO GET SPARS
From SNOW 4 BURGESS
NE8RAsKAN WILL BRING MATE.
RIAL TO HONOLULU - CAPT.
BAckUS HAS PLANS
READY,

Captain Chas. Backus. of the ship
Paramita, which arrived here in dis
tress some time ago. and which. ever
since then, has been lying here In a
disabled condition, received notiflca-
ton by the America Maru yesterday
that the spais, sails and other neces-
sary things with which the ship must
be fitted to make the voyage from this
port to San Francisco. have been pur-
chased by the Paramita's owners in
San Francisco and will be sent here in
the steamer Nebraskan, which is due
from San Francisco April s.
Captain Backus wrote for these
things some time ago and now finds
that besides what he wrote for, his
owners will send him several other
spars which he may or may not rig
here.
Among the principal spars to az
rive will be main top-mast and main
topgallant yards. The larger part OF
TINS outn, is the tackle which used to
belong to the old ship Snow and Bur-
CESS, which piled for years in the lum-
Der trade along the Pacific coast and
which was finally laid up in San Fran
cisco.
The owners of the ParGmita managed
to secure from this vessel most of the
articles needed for the resting of the
vessel which, which. taking into con-
sideratiOn the fact that the Snow and
Burgess and the paramita are of abOut
the same tonnage and build, will suit
the purpose admirably.
As soon as the Nebraskan brings this
tackle, Captain BacKus will have the
Paramita brought up to the Hackfeld
wharf in the same place as the andre
media occupied some months ago while
in somiliar condition.
Captain Backus intends TO have
fine. seaworthy jury rig put on his ves-
sci, which he viii then take to San
Francisco to have the complete re.rig-
ging OF the ship done. He will take
cargo of scrap iron in the place of bal
last, in case he can get a satisfactory
price for taking II. rs scrap iron is
extremely inconvenient to handle the
price must be in the neighborhood of
s. ton to make It pay. Should no
satisfactory arrangement be made
about a cargo of this sort the Paramita
will take ballast.
