JOCKEYS GET ENORMOUS PAY.
No Other Line Of Work Offers Like
Salaries for Similar Lack
Of Experience.

No other line Of work offers the
opportunity Of earning a large salary
In a short time such as is afforded
In the field Of racetrack Jockeys. The
extraordinary earnings Of successful
jockeys have frequently been com.
mented upon. Some Of them earn
an income greater than that Of the
president Of the United States. II
Is singular that with such constant
demand for this particular kind of
talent the supply has not grown more
than IL has, says an exchange. For
years jockeys have been earning
enormous wages, but the number OF
them-that is, OF competent ones
does not keep pace with the demand.
Recently there has been an extra
VACANT bidding for the services of
three boys nov riding at the New
orleans winter meeting. Two years
ago none Of these boys earned $40 a
week. One OF them has Just signed

that good Jockeys do not develop
rapidly.

sEeUoYAH's BONES FOUND
The Discovery Made by a Farmer In
Oklahoma.

In a letter to the Kansas City
Times from Snyder, Okla, comes a
story that a farmer named Franche,
In crossing the mountains about sew.
en- miles from there, discovered the
bones OF human being supposed TO
have been killed by the Indians about
century ago. On the ground near
the bones were the iron parts OF a
iiintlock rife, pair OF bullet molds
three bars OF lead and a Jefferson
medal, bearing the date OF 1901
When sequoyah departed from the
Cherokee nation, he is supposed TO
have gone south or west. With him
he took an old.tlme filntlock rife and
was said to have been the proud
possesor OF a jefferson medal bear
ing the date OF 1901. Nothing has
ever been learned OF the end Of Sc.
quoyah-where he journeyed. how
long he lived or how he passed owey.
Now comes the Rev. w. A. Duncan.
a Cherokee OF the old school and
says these are not the bones Of Sc
quoyah, the Cadmus OF the Cbero
KEGS. sequoyah went of into the
southwest in the search OF health
as FAR as New Mexico, and possibly
as far as the Rio Grande. Becomins
III, sequoyah remained and sent his
son back for aid. When the sons
party returned in search OF the old
man no trace OF him could be found
nor has his last resting place ever
been discovered. When the news NJ
the recent Oklahoma find was made
public Mrs NJ. L. Keys, OF this
place a distant relative Of seouoyab
wrote to MIR. Franche about the dis.
coVery' and the latter offered to nav |
her expenses TO Oklahoma If she !
would 40 and view the find She
however was unable to 20.

THE RUST RAVAG[S
\ Most Promising Wheat Crop
suddealy Rlighted.

4. V..)olln's, crop expert and editor
of the Commercial West was in the
county last week and before leaving
limited at :he wide spread disaster not
then realized TO any extent. In fact
at that time the ca.;nisy had not been
fully wrought out by this insidious
destroyer OF the wheat kernel. Now
a vast acreage Of the wheat crop OF
this county is reported as not worth
cutting. The most serious damage is
reported from the central portion or
the county along tie Jim, and far to
the east into Marshall county. Many
pieces in the south part.of tile County
seems to have ripened before the rust
destroyer struck them.. and will yield
a fair berry. 1t is also likely that
spots may occur where the damage is
slight. The following isa portion OF
Mr.. John sreport
There are: threatning indications
as che rust has done more or less
serious work over South Dakota and
in the south half Of Minnesota. and
is advancing apparently into North
Dakota, the southern counties being
infected.
AT this time muchof the territory
in the southern part Of North Dakota
is suffering as q resultof rust and it
may as well be cut this week as later
The harvest in North Dakota will
come earlier than expected as result
OF rust.
Wheat will be cut in North Oak
ota this week in rust districts and the
quality of the wheat will be gretly
impaired and the weight will run
light.
Much of this kind OF wheat will be
mere chaff or screenings.
Some that promised twenty bush
els will not be cut, SO badly infected
is it.
THE cropyield cannot be estimated
for several days. as the rust must have
time to rnn.its course before minimum
figures can be given with safety.
seush Daketa has not u moderate
crop OF wheat, in fact the smallest in
many years. and Minnesota has not
increased more than South Dakota
lost.

yield will have to come from that.

RATHER TOUCH GANG
But They Encountered the
Wrong Man This Time.

On Saturday evening the Jrain due
from Mitchell at 7:50 did an unusual
thing. 1t came to standstill near
Third avenue and a number OF
the police bearded the train. Word
had been sent from Redtield by Con-
/. ductor Fargo that he had a bunch on
that should be jailed. The officers
were let into the car, which had been
locked awaiting their arrival, ana
took out four men which were pointed
out to them and took them TO the
county jail where they were locked up
Rather an excited lot OF passengers
aliphted front the train a few NOM
ents later at the depot. It was soon
disclosed that they had pretty ex-
citing ride after leaving Mltcheli
where a lot Of grafters, who had been
working at Chamberlain during the
Rosebud rush, boarded the train on
their way up to heDevils Lake coun-
try where another land rnsh was a.
bout to come on A few OF them had
honuht tickets but the most of them
tried Ia beat their way and the trouble
gradually grew till it reached the d.
cute stage at Tulare in Sphinx county.
At this place Conductor Fargo took
one of. the gang named Meyers ana
elected him Just about the moment ~
hKe fellow was landed on the depot
nIatform a 44Colt's revolyer appeared
in his hand which in an instant ne
had aimed at the conuctor's breast.
At the, same instant, with a nerve
and GOODNESS. which are still the taiK
Of the town, Mr.. Fargo grasped Tue
pun in such manner as to 3cushloh
the fall of the hammer with the thin
BART Of the hand between the thumb
and finger, preventing it from being
discharged, although the hammer
.IEwice decendod on the flesh with al
IImost force enough to cut through H..
4 Then he drew his own gun with MS
| other hand at the same time securing
the other fellows. Covering the
tough with his guns the conductor
!. siqnaled the train to move on.
Meyers, on finding himself left, lost
no time in getting over to the North
Western line where he got the tram
arriving here at 1905, only to walk IN
to hands uf officers who were waiting
his arrival to conduct him TO the
same ablishment at which MS pals
had secured snug quarters.
The Sphinx county sheriff took
Meyers and two Of his accomplices
down to Redfield Tuesday morning
where they must be tried, as the
assault was commi lin Sphinx county.
j. II. Perry. attorney for the Milwau-
kee road, went down to assist at the
examination, and Amos N. Goodman lt 4
went also to assist in the defence.
Word from Redfield is to the effect
that twoof the men, Smith and Ham
ilton pied guilty to the charge OF
assault and battery and were fined
sl00 each with the usual alternative
!, as to confinement, while Meyers was
bound over to the circuit court for
Assault with intent to kill.
