BUFFALO BILL AS
A TROLLEY KING
Cody Back Of Electric Line Pro
jected to Yellowstone Ma
tional Park.

Cody, Wyo., Aug. 22.-The details
of an enterprise of stupendous magni-
tude have been announced here, by
which it is proposed to form a syndi-
cate Of wealthy eastern capitalists,
headed by local parties, and construct
an electric line from this city into the
Yellowstone park.
The scheme is one of far-reaching
Importance, as it will divert all of the
traffic into the park to this place and
open up one Of the most picturesque
and wealthy sections of the state. The
scheme involves the establishment of
a huge power plant at the site Of the
great dam being constructed by the
government on the Shoshone river
eight miles above Cody, for the re-
clamation of 100000 acres of land
east Of this city. With the electric
line as an extension Of the Burling-
ton road to this point a speedy route
into the park would be created, and
all Of the enormous traffic into that
wonderland would pass thru this
place.
Colonel W. F. Cody, who is con-
structing a series of hotels along the
proposed route, is said to be the pro
moter Of the new enterprise.

Special to The Journal.
Butte, Mont, Aug. 22.-Scattered along
the tracks Of the railway for distance
of almost a mile just west of Durant,
the mangled and dismembered remains
of man was picked up yesterday by a
section hand who was making his regu-
lar trip between Gregson and Durant.
The body is supposed to be that of a
man named Martin, who was last seen
Friday night wearing blue overalls, a
soft shirt and blue army coat. The
scraps of clothing left on the parts of
the body recovered tally in description
enough to justify the Identification.
Arriving within a mile Of Durant, the
section hand was Mortified by stumbling
on the bloody arm Of man. There Wert
spatterngs Of blood about, but no other
parts of body. Knowing that some ac-
cident had happened the section mar
continued toward Durant, and a little
farther on found a leg and still farther
away the severed and badly mangleC
head and near the switch at the Durant
yards, about 100 yards from the station

attached.

Grand Forks n. D., Aug. 22.-Much
cooler weather has followed the rain
which prevailed generally over this sec
ton of North Dakota for two days, ex-
tending north to the Canadian boundary
and west to Montana. The rain in places
was heavy and continued, and harvesting
will be delayed from one to three days,
with its consequent damage. The rain
will have the effect of Fastening the har-
vest on late grain, but the presence of
rust and the rapidity with which it is
spreading leaves little to hope for from
the late crop.
In the western part of the state, from
Lakota to Montana, along the Great
Northern, harvest is general and it is a
bumper crop. There is very little damage
from rust, estimated at less than 15 per
cent Despite the rust North Dakota will
have wheat crop, very nearly, many
think, up to that of last year, but the
acreage was increased % or more per
cent this year, and up to a month ago or
less the state looked to be due for a
bumper crop
In many localities the wheat will hard
! ly be worth harvesting, in others the
| yield will be reduced from 20 to % bush
els to 8 and 10, but the yield in the west
ern and extreme northern sections will
bring the average up to respectable fig

Northern Man Reports on Yields III
Kansas and Oklahoma.

Special to The Journal
Fergus Falls, Mimi, Aug. 22.-T. E..
Ibberson, a contractor Of this city, has
returned from Kansas and Oklahoma,
where he has been engaged in building a
line of elevators. His work has brought
him into direct contact with the grain
men, and he is particularly we'll posted
on the situation in southwestern Kansas
and a large section of Oklahoma. The
crops, except corn, are now harvested
there, and the farmers have been rushing
their grain to market on account Of the
high prices.
Mr. Ibberson places the average yield
Of wheat in those localities at about
twelve bushels an acre. The rust struck
in, but not as badly as it did in this sec
ton, and the farmers consider the yield
just about half of an average crop. The
grain is of poor quality. About one load
in every fifteen that comes to the e1eva-
tors grades No. 2 northern. The remainder
runs from No. 8 northern to screenings
and chicken feed. The corn crop in
southern Oklahoma is ready, but in the
northern part and in Kansas it IS still
green, and the outlook is for a fine yield.

New Wheat Marketed.

Special to The Journal.
Red Lake Falls, Mimi, Aug. 22.--The
Northern Minnesota Milling company took
in the first new wheat today. It tested 55
pounds and graded No. 2 and had good
color and was good milling wheat. It
was grown on a sand ridge and the yield
was about twelve bushels an acre. About
20 per cent Of the wheat Is cut. Some
pieces are badly damaged by rust, while
others do not show any loss. Ninety per
cent Of the wheat is out Of the way Of
rust or frost. Best judges estimate the
yield at thirteen to fourteen bushels OF
wheat, forty to forgive Of oats and thirty
five to forty Of barley.

There is something very attractive to

gives Professor Morse as the authority
for this pretty description of japanese

nests in the city houses. Wild fowl,
geese and ducks alight in the public
parks. Wild deer trot about the streets:
