of the many equine stars he possesses.

stable of his especial pets. There are
many famous horses at Elmendorf

time he has had dozen looks at the
great horses above noted. His regard
for Salvador is due to the fact that he
was the early sensation of his first

record still stands unapproached by
by any American race horse.

POWDER HURTS BOY.
Learns What a Percussion Cap Is
When It Is Too Late.

Chanute. Kan, Aug. 16.-CIaude
Winkler. the 11-year-old son of DR..
and Mrs. J. S. Winkler, has been bad
ly injured by the explosion of a per-
cussion cap used to discharge blasts
of dynamite. The accident happened
at DR.. Winkler's residence. Claude
and a playmate saw the fuse and cap
hanging in a tree. Claude's compan-
ion climbed the tree and secured the
continuance. The boys did not know
exactly what it was but the fuse looked
tempting and young Winkler applied
a lighted match to it. The cap ex-
ploded almost inStantaneously
The explosion shattered Claude's
hand and arm, and the coarse powder
of which the cap was composed was
blown into his hand, arm, chest and
face. One grain penetrated the cornea
of the left eye, temporarily destroying
the vision. 1t is not known yet wheth-
er the blindness will be permanent,
as there was such a hemorrhage of
blood from the wound at the time
it was dressed that the condition of
the optic nerves could not be ascer-
tanned. The boys head and face were
badly torn by the powder. He was at
tended by DR.. NJ. A. Duncan.
Claude's playmate watched the ex-
pertinent from a safe distance and es-
capped uninjured. The explosion made
a great noise.

GOLD EXCITEMENT.
Workmen Believed They Had Found
Deposits of Precious Metal.


Coffeyville. Kan. Aug. ia force
of men working for r. L. Plunkett
on east Sixteenth street, east of the
NJ. K & T. tracks struck a peculiar
formation yesterday while digging for
the new sewer. Some old timers were
sitting on the banks watching the
workmen when they noticed a black
sand between three and four inches
in thickness about six feet below the
Surface.
THAT looks like the gold sand found
in Anzonia," ventured one of the old
timers "Since I come to think about
1T 1 believe you are right" replied an
other. Mr.. Plunkett was called to the
scene of the new discovery and
thought he could see a resemblance
In the famous Arizona black sand.
As each opinion was submitted for
what it was worth, the excitement in
creased along the line of workmen and
it was decided to have the sand ana
lyzed ito be sure"
First few chunks of the precious
sand were dropped carefully in the
forge (An gold melting is done care
fully When it melted and run to-
gether like SO much glass, That's Just
the way gold casts,' said one of the
excited ones, and no one was in
position to dispute him. The Trego
gold fields were nothing to compare
with the Coffeyville field for a few
minutes Finally the scare burnt itself
out with its own heat, and slowly died
"o-bOrnin'."

BOTTLE BLOWERS IN TROUBLE.
Vice President AGacl1inaw VIII Try to
Settle Difficulty at lola.

Settle Difficulty at lola.
lola, Kas., Aug. 16.-Vice President
I Mackinaw of the glass bottle blowers
union will arrive in the city the first
of the week to look after the interests
of the union and see what can be done
toward arbitration in the trouble now
pending between the union and the
Coffeyville bottle factory. This word
has been received by Oscar Brady, the
representative of the union already
here, by telegram. Mr.. Mackinaw
will ask to meet the directors and
stockholders of the bottle factory, and
ing he will lay their side of the case
before them in a last hope of arbitra-
ton; but If the meeting is denied
then other means of bringing about
a reconsideration of the directors de-
termination to run a non-union shop
will be employed.
In a letter to Mr.. Brady, Mr.. Hays,
president of the bottle blowers union,
expresses surprise that the factory
here should contemplate running nom
union. He said that they had the best
conditions that could be found any
place in the country in regard to fuel,
which is the principal thing in the
glass business. Also that they were
in position to supply the rapidly in
creasing trade of the vast territory
west of the Mississippi better than
any other factory.
Men have been in the east securing
non-union men to come here to work,
so the union men here have been in
formed by advice from the east, and
that the scab laborers will soon be
here. They are hired under the agree
ment that the plant will be an open
shop; that is, open for snon-union as
we'll union labor The union men
say that this is impossible, as shop
must either be union or non-union,
and that there is no such thing
"Open shop" They have also been
advised that men will be sent to the
Neodesha plant, and they are prepar-
ing to fight the introduction of nom
union labor there as hard as they are
here.
The factory management, on the
other hand. contend that they have
the money invested in the factory
here, and they have right to say
what kind of workmen they shall hire.
They further say that the union fur
nished them men for the last fire, and
that the men sent here from the east
were not a good class of workmen.
What will be the outcome of the
affair is as yet hard to determine. The
factory men say they will start and
use union or non-union men as they
please. The union men will try to
arbitrate, but if a reconciliation can
not be effected by arbitration they re-
fuse to state what will then be their
uexf course

GOOD WHEAT YIELD.
Stafford County Man Values Crop at
$27 Per Acre.

Snyder Bros. threshed forty-two acres
of wheat last week for D. B. Cooper,
of Cleveland township, that made an
average yield of "a u bushels per acre.
The land was measured while the
threshinE was in progress and it was
found that there were just forty tw o
acres in the field. Wheat was at that
time worth "a cents per bushel, and
that price, if sold. would have brought
$26.5911 per acre. The wheat was of
the Russian variety and was certainly
of very fine quality. This is the larg-
est yield we have ever heard of in
this part of the county this year.
Bonnie" is to be congratulated upon
his fine crop.
