A Crop of 6O,oOO,OOO Bushels of Wheat
Will BE the Record of 1904.

The results of the threshlng in West
ern Canada are not yet completed, but
from information at hand, it is safe to
say that the average per acre will be
reasonably high, and a fair estimate
will place the total yield of wheat at
6O,00O,OOO bushels. At present prices
this will add to the wealth of the farm
ers nearly $685. 900, 200. Then think of
the immense yield Of oats and barley
and the large herds of cattle, for all Of
which good prices will be paid.
The following official telegram was
sent by Honorable Clifford Sifton,
Minister of the Interior, to Lord
S~trathcona, High Commissioner for
Canada:
Am now able to state definitely that
under conditions of unusual difficulty
In Northwest a fair average crop Of
wheat OF good quality has been reaped
and is now secure from substantial
damage. The reports of injury by frost
wheat of Manitoba and Northwest Ter
ritories will aggregate from fifty-fve
TO sixty million bushels. The quality's
good and the price is ranging around
one dollar per bushel."

Evening Post, says:

railroad was built, learned men at

swarmed into that far country, and to

The officer learned that the safe of
Fithian & Pennell, when rifled Sun
day night, contained two counterfeit
dollars. One of them had been in the
safe over 10 years; the other one was
passed ON Isaiah Wentzell, and placed
in the safe short time before his
death.
The officer was called in by Mrs.
Fisher a few minutes after the money
had been passed on her. He soon To-
Gated the girl and arrested her Monday
night, and took her before Justice
Mulford, who committed her to Jail
for hearing this morning.
Yesterday morning the girl mani
tested a willingness to talk and sent
for officer Barton.
On the strength of what she told the
officer, a man who is known as En-
NETT was arrested yesterday afternoon
and locked up for hearing to-mor-
row.
The silver counterfeits were identi-
fed by Fithian 81 Pennell as the iden-
tical pieces which were in their safe
when it was close up Saturday night
last.
AT the hearing of Elsie Gosling this
morning before Justice Mulford, at
the Court House, the girl pleaded not
guilty to passing the counterfeit
coins. She said she had the money
and passed it, innocently, not know
ing that it was counterfeit.
Mrs. I. Fisher was sworn and re-
lated the circumstances of Elsie buy
ing some articles at their store and
giving her the two coins; she gave
the girl so cents in change, not detect
ing at the moment that they were
spurious; she knew Elsie; she iden-
titled the coins which were handed her

| by the Justice, as the coins Elsie gave
her.
Oscar Anderson, receiving teller of
the Bridgeton National: Bank, testified
that the coins were counterfeit.
In her statement to the Justice she
said, not being sworn, that Lewis
Emmett gave her the two coins, to-
gether with some other money, all
aggregating $5.85. She was positive
that Emmett gave her the two spuri-
Gus dollars. He gave her this money
ON Sunday night; it must have been

eleven O'Clock that night. He gave
her the money to buy him some clothes

the State Reformatory.
Isaac Fisher was sworn and told
what he knew as to the coins. He
recognizedtElsie as having been in his
store before.
| Elsie gave the Justice two dollars in
bills to repay Mr.. Fisher for tine spuri-
ous coins. She admitted having the
spurious coins, which were shown her
by the Justice, in her possession, but
did not know they were bad money.
After signing her statement she was
released, there being no evidence that
she knowingly passed the counterfeit
money.

FOUR KILLED IN FIGHT.
Cowboys and Indians in a Genera,
Shooting ARRAY on the
Montana Frontier.
Montana Frontier,

Helena, Mont, July PA general shoot.
ing scrape occurred at Rocky Point,
eighty miles from Harlem, in which three
Indians and a cowboy were killed. The
row was started by a halfbreed Indian
named Billy Brown.
1t seems that Brown and several In.
dams were on their way to the Grow res
esvation and stopped at Rocky Point.
Here they began to drink freely. A poker
game was started and trouble arose be-
tween Brown and a cowboy. whose name
could not be learned.
Brown wounded his man badly and sew
eral other cowboys took the matter up In
g free-for-all fight which lasted several
minutes.
When the smoke of battle cleared away
it was found that. Brown, Aloysius
Chandler and an A%rapahoe Indian were
killed, each of them being literally filled
with revolver and rifle shots.
News of the shooting was brought to the
agency as soon as possible and a general
investigation will be made at once by the
officers there. The first wounded cowboy
was still alive when the messenger left,
but is now supposed to be dead.
1t is generally supposed the cowboys are
still at liberty, as the country there is
very rough, with the Missouri river on
one side and the Bad Lands on the other.
Several men were badly wounded, but
none fatally except one.
