Could Not Think Of Amen.

A relative OF the late Walter B.
Brooks tells of dinner upon one oc-
casion at that gentleman's house
when a clerical guest was requested
to ask blessing, says the Baltimore
Sun. The reverend gentleman COM
piled, but once started on his flow
of invocation there sect er no indi-
cation that he ever intended to stop.
On and on swept the stream of elo-
quence while the soup turned stone
cold and the hostess looked appeal
ingly at her husband. Suddenly Mr..
Brooks broke into the blessing with
a fervent and final "Amen" The
clergyman stopped, and with beaming
eyes calculated: "Oh, thank you,

FIGHTING IS HARD WORK.
Strain on Nerves and Muscles Worse
Than the Dangers in Battle.

'When | read in the newspapers
that the Japanese army is exhausted
it makes me shudder," said veteran
of the Philippine war. The accounts
of the heaped up dead and the ter
rife slaughter don't affect me at all,
but that statement brings up bitter
memories, for lighting is the hardest
work in the world.
''Our battles with the insurgents
were only skirmishes as compared
to the fighting in Manchuria. Now
in a battle of the magnitude, say, Of
Caloocan, you don't realize that any
one has been killed or wounded.
when you come back to camp at
night, you are surprised to hear that
men in your own platoon have fallen.
You see, the company advances in
extended order. AS soon as man
is struck, he falls to the rear, and
if you're attending to business you
aren't looking back. So that, never
seeing any slaughter, you aren't es-
pecially scared after your first &C
ton.
"But the hard, nerve racking work
of it! All day you are sprnting swift
hundred yard dashes, carrying a
heavy gun and a back breaking load
of ammunition.
Then you get to cover and work
your rife like mad, and when you feel
too tired to lift hand there's another
dash ahead OF you.
fJust for a variety you may have
to dig trenches at racing speed for an
hour or so-and all this, usually, in
broiling sun. Ten to one you have
to march half the night to another
the feeling 1t is exhaustion, mus
position and that often on an empty
stomach.
with it all goes a tense nervous
strain more wearying than the actual
work. I've read a great deal of that
depression which settles over an
army after battle and which often
makes the winners believe that they
have lost.
Historians and novelists lay it to
the sight of the dead and wounded
and the sickening realization of. the
bloody work they've done. I know
cular and nervous exhaustion, moth
ing more nor less"

WILD BILLS FIRST FIGHT.
He Was Wounded, But Killed Six
Members of the McKandlas Gang.

Denver Field and Farm.
Wild Bill. whose real name was
Jas. Hickok. first came west in 1857,
and drove an ore team on the plains
for Majors & Russell in 1860. He
subsequently engaged himself to the
overland stage company as stock
tender and was put in charge of
new stage station on Rock Creek,
near the old McKandlas station,
which was generally known as Rob-
ber's Roost. This was the headquar-
tiers for the McKandlas gang,
crowd that had held together since
the Missouri-Kansas border ruflan
days and generally had things their
own way. A man named Ficklen,
and a number one stage hand, was
the superintendent. He tried to buy
out the McKandlas station, but fail
ing to do this, he built new one
near by, putting young Hickok in
charge. Up to that time he had
never experienced trouble with any
one, and was not likely to have fric-
ton, especially with the old station
keeper, McKandlas, or his men.
In the winter of 186o-o1 McKan
dlas and his nephew and four other
men passed by the new station On
horseback, leading an old man who
was afoot. They had rope around
the old fellows neck, and OCCASION
ally they would take a few turns
aroundSthe horn of the saddle, make
a run on the rope and jerk the old
man down and drag him on the
ground until he was nearly dead. The
only spite they had against him was
that he was a North Methodist
preacher. If Wild Bill was anything
ne was an Abolitionist and free-soiler,
and loyal to the United States. The
McKandlas crowd was planning to
make raid on several stations to
secure the stock and go south. They
told young Hickok they would take
the stock. He replied that he would
be there.
When they returned late in the
evening two stopped at the corral,
two went to the front and two to the
back door of the cabin or hut.
Hickok told them he would shoot the
first man who took down the bars
of the corral. The elder McKan
dlas fired at Hickok, but missed him.
Hickok returned the fire with rife,
and shot McKandlas in the heart.
The next shot from Hickok killed the
nephew, and the two fell at the front
door. Just then the two at the back
door opened fire. One shot from
double-barrelled gun lodged seven
full grown buckshot into Hickok's
right side and breast, two OF which
entered his lungs. The two men who
stopped at the corral came to the
assie- nee of the two men at the
house. Hickok was the in hand
to-hand fight with four men. He
killed three of them in the house, and
wounded the other so badly that he
died on the prairie.

A NEW DISTRICT.
Rich Copper Find Made Hear Soda
Vile.

A new mining district, one that prom
Uses to yield values in lead, has come to
light in Esmeralda county. says the
Reno Gazette. II is located fifteen miles
west Of Sodavillc and the discovercr is
a. f.. BEETLES, who has just shipped in
fifty tons of ore to be reduced at the
plant of the Western Ore Purchasing
Company. According to samples placed
on display at the Chamber of Commerce
the ore is extremely rich, the samples
submitted bearing from 40 to 80 per
cent copper. They are beautiful speci-
mems, n especially being highly col
ored. Mr.. BEETLES is most enthusiastic
o er the find and declares that the new
district will prove to be one Of great
richness. The lodges are thick, he SAYS,
and will average fully 25 per cent cop
per. He does not propose to form y
company to sell stock, but will develop
the property himself, according to his
statement this morning. He calls hi>
mine the "Bluc Light" Samples OF
bismuth, Is per cent in value, were also
left by Mr.. BEETLES. They come from a
ledge several miles ca t of Sodaviile.
Associated with Mr.. BEETLES in his Ne
vada discoveries is his brotle r, of the
Samuel Newhouse staff, and several
others Of Salt Lake.

More Hopeful at Tower

Tower people are feeling somewhat
better recently, the prevailing idea
seeming to be that the Minnesota
mine will do some active work about
the first of the year. The Tower
News says:
What appears to be we'll found
ed rumor is afioat to the effect that
the Minnesota mine will resume
operations about January first. While
on visit to the property last Tues.
day Supt. Chas. Trezona, of Ely
stated that lie had no orders to begin
work but from the questions which
he asked and orders which he left il
is inferred that mining will be re-
sumed within a short time. The

overhauled while new brick coverings
are also being built around the boil

head attached to the hide, send it
with the clerks certificate to the

surely of making $40.
At the coming session of the legis-
lature bill will be introduced ohvi-
ating the necessity of taking the
carcass to the town clerk. The head
and skin will be sufficient.
Wolves can be easily poisoned but
care must be taken not to Overdose
Them. Too much strychnine will
not work as the stomach of the wolf
will reject it. Not more than two
grains in small capsule should be
used, This capsule should be inserted
in small piece of raw meat, which
must be stuck on the end of Il twig or
stick and placed neara bait composed

NAL. Care should be taken not to
touch the meat with the fingers, a
piece of wood or fork being the best
thing with which to handle it. The
poison should be put in a slit in the
meat. Offal from the slaughter house
will make a good lure but on no ac-
count should the poison be placed in
the carcass or offal intended to attract
the wolves. Place the small bats
around the carcass and the wolves
will snap them up while running
around the big bait.
Another good way is to soften a
lump of tallow and drop a capsule
into Il hole punched with a stick in
that. The trail Of the wolf can cas-
lily be followed in the snow. Do not
use too much poison. Two grains of
strychnine is good and plenty.

DROWNED IN knife LAKE.
Trappefs Edwards and Bloomer
Drowned Oct. 20.

John d. Mckenzie of Atlanta,
Mich. arrived in the city last week
and at once took steps to ascertain
the whereabouts of his father-in-law
John Edwards, from whom he had
not heard for some time and who was
known to be liz the country north OF
here in the Knife Lake district, trap
ping and hunting.
Mr.. Mckenzie visited the scene and
on Prairie portage found traps,
hatchet, cartridges, clothing, clothing
and provisions which had been cached
there to tighten the canoe load in
which were Edwards and partner
named Gus. Bloomer and a large dog
belonging to Edwards. The men
were seen on the lakein gale by a
couple of men who were compelled to
put in on account of the weather and
who later told the story on their ar
rival at Winton to Bert Baird at the
livery stable. Since then nothing
has been seen of the trappers while
the dog returned to the starting
point few days later. The canoe
and blankets were afterwards picked
up by some one in u logging camp and
where they are now.
The superstition is that the men
were both drowned on Oct. 20, the
day being notable as desperate
storm was on at the time, even the
tug captain refusing to take the tug
out on that day. The canoe being
loaded to the waters edge and the
men not being experts it is
thought they were swamped. The
bodies were not recovered but it is
possible that they may be found be-
fore spring. Mr.. Mckenzie is offer
ing reward for the body of Mr..
Edwards and if recovered while yet in
condition for shipment the same will
be sent to Atlauti for burial.
Edwards was man of so years of
age and has of late years been milking
hunting and trapping profession.
Bloomer was young man between II
and 20 years of age and had become
acquainted and partner Of Edwards
while in the country ia which they
operated. That they were drowned
is settled fact. Mr.. Mckenzie left
for his home Wednesday.

$4,000 reward.

The above reward will be paid for
the body Of John Edwards, supposed
to be drowned In Knife Lake about
Oct. 20. TO identify the remains
plate will be found attached to the

Der and some engraved writing. The
above reward will be paid upon pres
entation of said plate to prove the
genuineness. When found, send plate
and make returns to Robt. Barto at

after which reward Will be promptly
paid. Finder Of body will bring the
remains to Winton providing they
are in fit condition to ship, and IL
not in a condition to ship, finder IS to

the place of burial where it can later
be located without fail,
