M. M. DefCh Fined.

The generally urbane manner of
Judge Theron Stevens. was considera-
bly, perturbed this morning by the
non arrival of court Stenographer M
M. Detch at the time of the opening
of court, which was at O'Clock Mr.
Detoh did not arrive until half after
nine and by that time the disturbed
condition of the judges feelings were
above zero considerably. ! l
The court stenographer finally ar
rived and presented good excuse chat
he had been up late the night previ-
ous writing out long record and that
he had oversight himself.
This excuse while it might ordinar-
lily have prevailed did not find favor
with the court this morning. as His
Honor has had to make several exam
piles of punctuality this term and he
promptly fined Mr. Detch ten dollars
Mr.. Detch took the imposition of the
fine in very gentlemanly and kindly
manner and had nothing to say where
for he should not be excused.
Maybe Judge Stevens may later on
remit the fine. to his very efficient
clerk, but not at the present time, we
opine.

DRY AUGUST WEATHER.
Its Effect on the Cotton Crop Is Now
Dercaiued -

Guthrie, o. T., Oct. 19.-The dry weather
in August and September shortened the
cotton crop considerably and also made
the cotton mature earlier and more uni
formly than common. and as a conse-
quence the~cotton raisers in Greer county
find that instead of part of their crop
opening at one time and part another,
givin gthem time with a limited number
of pickers, to keep UP with it, they find
that practically their whole field has
opened at once and is ready to be picked,
and as this is the case all over the
county the farmers find themselves con-
fronted with a serious proposition in the
question of how they can get their crop
gathered before it blows away or is Sc
riously damaged, says the Sun-MonitOr.
Men who started out this week through
the country 70 hunt cotton pickers found
more men who wanted to hire pickers
than persons who could be hired as pick
ers. 1t is estimated that with the home
help available it will take three months
to gather the Greer county cotton crop
and much of it win be more or less
wasted or badly damaged b ythat time
The crop should be cleaned up within
thirty days This subject of advertising
outside the county and having pickers
shipped in has been discussed, but no
definite action has been tkaen.

three nights in hope of catching the
treasure seekers.
Titus II. Wadsworth, who is supposed
to have buried the treasure. died Febru-
ary,. 10, 1901. He was said to be somewhat
peculiar and it was often limited that
he had a large fortune. d.
His life was an interesting one. He
fitted for college at KimbaH union acad-
envy at Meriden, and graduated from
Williams college. For eight years he
was a teacher and wei known eduea-
tor. but i'll health forced him to. take
up some outdoor employment, and he
bought the farm on Smith Hill, where
he lived until his death. so years later.
Wadsworth never married. He left two
brothers and two sisters. One of his
brothers is Judge w B. Wadsworth, may
or of Silver Cliff, Colo, and the other
is Col. George G. wadsworth. One Of
the sisters was Mrs. Caroline s. Hayley
of Concord, who lived with him
for a number of years before his death
and. according to Currier, it is her son
Ferdinand who is here searching for the
supposed buried gold. Ferdinand had a
brother who died a few years ago and
who had been al Instructor at Harvard.
1t is known that not much ready cash
was found after the death of Wadsworth.
and the general belief here is that he did
bury his wealth upon the farm.

TEN MEN ARE KILLED

Pittsburg, Oct. 19.-By the breaking OF
the ropes carrying five beams TO their
position, letting many tons of iron fall
upon the movable crane at the Pittsburg
end of the new Wabash bridge being built
by the American Bridge company over
the Monobahela river, almost a dozen
workmen were hurled to death by a fall
of more than 100 feet, striking the water
and two barges beneated. Ten of the
dead have been recovered Five men
were seriously injurd Several bodies are
yet pinned under the wrecked barge. The
part of the bridge extending out over
the river from water street side is total
wreck
The dead are:
w. ]. MCLOUD.
GEORGE WELLS
G. w. KEITLINGER.
WILLIAM KEMPTON.
c. T. FLEMING.
FRED SALLINGER.
FRANK DALBY.
]. CAMPBELL.
EDWARD MORRIS.
JAMES SIMMONS.
Deputy Coroner L. Z. Huchel made an
investigation at the scene of the disas-
ter. He believes the blame rets on who
was in charge of the beam. He says that
a failure to properly secure one derrick
load caused the breaking strain to fall
on the crane This cable which was
used by the giving way of two inch
steel cable which was used as one of the
guys to support the big crane. This
cable was tested to bear strain of 100
tons, and it is said that it did not break
but pulled loose from it's fastenings
There were "a men at work on the super
structure of the bridge and in the barge
below, from which the beams were being
hosted by the crane, 175 feet above the
river level when the booms collapsed. OF
the men who were in the barge some es-
capped with their lives by jumping into
the river the moment they heard the
crash above. Some of the men on the
who were engaged in
riveting and handling iron bars that were
lifted from the barge also got off unin-
jured
