river. Minnie Raymond Lottie E..
Cameron and Edward Shark were
drowned, five persons are missing and
eighty persons were injured Many
fell on two house boats moored to a
pier Immediately under the spot
where it gave way. Several persons
were injured by striking on house
boats, while others were hit by falling
timbers. Many fell from the roofs of
the house boats into the water, where
dozens of small boats and launches
picked them up.
AS Lutz was finishing his swim the
crowd rushed to the south edge of the
Ridge in order to get a good view. A
section of the
Footwatk Gave Way.
Some struck on the house boats
moored under the bridge, While 9th
ers fell directly into the river, which
is about fifteen feet deep at That point.
Many fell between the house boats.
forming a pile ten feet high Of strug-
Cling men, women and children.
Dozens of boats at the scene soon
picked up those struggling in the
water, while the injured, who were
clinging to the house boats, were
taken into the club house OF the Port

summoned.
Every ambulance in the city, sew
eral fire companies, and large force
Of police arrived within few minutes,
and victims with broken arms and legs
were hurried to the hospitals.
The bridge is an old wooden struc-
ture, having been built sixteen years
ago, and has been considered unsafe
for some time, although it was not
condemned.

It does not pay to laugh at kings,
at least In their presence. On several
occasions where men have been given
to levitg before monarchs It has been
amply proved that this is So. It was
awkward for the confidential adviser
OF the czar Of Russia, not long ago,
that he was unable to control his i'm
pulse to smile. On the occasion in
question the czar was tired and in an
unpleasant frame of mind. His foot
slipped on a WoIf-skin mat. There
was something SO funny about it that
the confidential adviser lost control
of his: features. That laugh at the
wrong time cost him his high position
and salary Of many thousands of dol
lars a. year.

Land for Grazing.

The increased demand for state lands
for grazing purposes is most gratifying,
and wide-awake stocknien and ranchers
IN every county are applying for tracts
that are most convenient and desirable.
Vast quantities of land heretofore open
to the public are being fenced and the
receipts for rental will materially swell
the common school fund. The income
from this source has increased at sur
prising rate. Over $11, 900 has been re
celyed on new leases thus far in 1903,
While the total receipts on new leases
IN 1902 were but $7,775. Many live
stock owners are not aware that all
school land is subject to lease at prices
ranging from 12a to 25 cents per acre per
annum. Duplicate records of lands of
each county are kept by the county
treasurer, and are open for public in
spection, thus making it possible for
any interested person to learn the status
of any piece without any trouble or
delay The treasurers of the counties, as
we'll as the secretary of the state land
department, will be pleased to furnish
full information upon application either
