Are Raging in Montana Forests With
Serious Results.

Kalispell, Mont, Aug. 4-Fourteen
distinct forest fires are raging in this
vicinity and property valued at thou
sands of dollars is being eaten up by
the flames which have spread to several
small towns along the Great Northern
railroad.

villages west of here, are entirely cut

latest arrivals from there, who left
Tuesday night, report that several
churches and other outlying property
has been destroyed and dwelling houses
outside of the town are in great dan
ger. 1t is thought, however, that I'M
less a high wind should set in, the main
portion of the place will be saved.
Another large fire is raging near Day
ton Creek, a heavily t1mbered section,
and the pine forests of that section Will
be almost destroyed.
The whole country is covered with a
dense smoke which makes sunlight al
most a novelty. In some places alons
the road the smoke has totally obscured
the suns rays for several weeks past.
One ranchman and his family near
Whitefisn narrowly afcaped being burn
ed to death, and when they reached
that town reported that his home and
farm buildings together with all his
crops had been destroyed
Forest Supervisor Haines with a large
force of men are fighting the flames
as best they can, but owing to the ex-
tent of the burning district, they can
do little until helped by good down
pour of rain or the force is increased.
The entire side of a large mountain
west of here is one mass of flames.

WASHOUTS AT TRUxTON
Santa F'e Trains Late on Account of
High Water in Arizona.

Kingman, Ariz., Aug. attempts
have been made by the Santa F'e rail-
road to get trains over the washout
at Truxton canon, but heavy rains
have again washed out bridges and
it may be several days before repairs
are made. All eastbound trains are
held up here. Heavy rains are falling
and the canons through which the
railroad passes are carrying a heavy
flow of water.
At the Santa Fe general offices here
it was stated this morning that the
trains were being detoured over the
Southern Pacific in order to get
around the washoutS at Truxton canon.
The detouring of the trains necessar-
lily makes the trains considerably late,
but all trains it is announced, are be-
ing sent through.

A wife beater is dead at Cripple
Creek by the hand of the woman
whom he has been beating relent-
lessly for years. In this case the
woman happens to be the wife of
the man she shot. Her justification
is that for several years he has come
home in a drunken condition and at
all times has beaten her without
mercy. until she could stand it no
longer, and in defense almost of her
life she shot her husband. Who will
say that the woman was not justified
in doing as she did, sacrificing a life.
even if that life was her husbands.

1t has come to be generally ac-

that in. sporting matters anyone
takes the short chance in California

the first quality of true sport and
when it is absent there is not much
left upon which to make a showing.
