Wichita Stock Yards Fire.

Wichita, June 4.-Nearly three acres
of cattle pens and sheds at the stock
yards are totally destroyed by fire, the
loss being estimated at 100000, which
/ is entirely covered by insurance. The
fire was started by lightning, which
struck the large barn on the south side
of the yards. Business, however, will
not be hindered in the least. There
are plenty of pens left for all the stock
that can be shipped in and buying and
selling will go on just as if nothing
had happened.
A crowd of men tore the Office
Furniture out of the exchange building
and the bank Desks, chairs, tables,
typewwriters, books, stationery and
other things were thrown out. Many
of these things were considerably dam
aged by being broken and rained on.
All of the telephones were torn out and
within few minutes the three build
ings, the hotel, bank and exchange,
were cleared of everything of value.

spair, he forced her to make up her
mind about him, once for all by calling
to see her in her own home.
The front door of the house stoud
always open, for the convenience of
the various dodgers, so he entered at
will and, before she was aware of his
presence, was in the room where she
! sat at the table sewing, alone.
You needn't be afraid, Jenny" he
said, quietly, closing the door and
standing with his back to it. 81 must

Next minute he had a knife out and

He stopped, and she stared at him
aghast. 81 hated him." he continued,
in a strained, hoarse whisper. I'D

Meanwhile, though Ben Gi1lett hao

his crude greatness, the open hatred
of one he had Tilted and several he
ignored for the sake of her, turned
her head so little as it did.
Suddenly, at this critical juncture,
before she could be sure of her own
heart, or Alf could overpersuade her,
some unknown hand had abruptly
torn him out of her life forever.
His tragic end filed her with hor-
ror and affected her with an emotional
belief that she had really loved him.
The tears she shed were tears of gen.
uine sorrow.
This development of the situation
seeming to make it imperative, she
trimmed her hat with Grape and
bought herself a cheap black dress,
and in these b . iliments was treated
with distinguished consideration at
the inquest, where she sat on a front
bench between Alf's father and
mother.
Later she was the most attractive
figure and principal mourner at the
funeral Altogether it was a strange
and grievous experience, not IN

vINITAN MADE
A RICH STRIKE.
George Badgett, With q Turn
for Mining, is Successful.

George Badgett, who left here for
the West few years ago, seems from
reports in the Denver as well as local
papers, to have struck a trail which
is leading him on toward wealth.
Out in Nevada he was able to bunch
a number Of individual claims and in
terest an Eastern syndicate in their
development, and was elected general
superintendent. He also owns con-
siderable block Of the stock.
The main shaft is now down 725
feet and the monthly output is about
$4,000. The ore is carried to the re-
duction works, on the line Of the IN
ion Pacific, by means Of narrow
gauge road, and so great is the traffic
from this group of mines that the
road is taxed beyond its utmost carry
ing capacity. 1t is even believed by
some that this lode may rival the fam
Gus Comstock, the greatest producer
the country has ever known.
