Hitchcock as Muck-Raker.
r. P. o'cONNOR,.

Secretary Hitchcock, perhaps the
most unpopular man that ever held a
cabinet Office, is one OF the best work
ers and probably the most efficient
muck raker on the presidents staff.
While Attorney General Moody and
James Randolph Garfield have met
with doubtful success in most of their
bounding of the octopi Hitchcock has
gone out after the land grafters in the
Western states and has sent barrels to
penitentiaries. A senator and ;.repre-
sentative went down before him, and,
as to common varieties of land sharks,
his victims are without number Many
indictments are still pending, but the
chances are that Secretary Hitchcock
will land them all before he gets
through. And no government official
has had half the odds to contend
against that Hitchcock has in this
crusade. Several senators have fought
him in every possible way, and strong
friends of the president have tried to
poison his mind against the secretary
of the interior.

THREE KILLED BY DYNAMITE
TERRIFIC EXPLOSION OCCURS IN
A PLANT NEAR WASHBURN,
WIS.

Washburn, Wis, July 1S.-A terrific
explosion occurred at the plant of the
Eastern Dynamite Manufacturing COM
pany, located about four and one-half
miles from this city yesterday, when
about / 200 pounds of nitroglycerin ex-
ploded in the neutralizing house on
the powder line, killing three men and
slightly injuring score of Others
The men killed were:
Supt. |. L. Pierce, who had his legs
)lown off and his head torn to pieces.
George Woodsee, foreman of the
powder line: blown to atoms.
Willard Wallace, a workman in the
building; blown to atoms.
The remains of l. l.. Pierce have
been brought to this city, but those of
the other two men have not been
found, having been scattered over
acres of ground.
The explosion occurred in the neu-
tralizing house, and was thought to
have been caused from nitroglycerin
which had soured over Sunday. but
this is only suppositiOn, and perhaps
the real cause will never be known.
Nothing remains except large hole
to mark the spot where the building
stood.
The force of the explosion was felt
plainly in this city, and large mum
ber of plate glass windows were
broken. At Ashland, just across the

STREAM OF OPE KILLS.
All Efforts to Save Life Of Shift Boss
Unavailinr

Eveleth, Mimi, July 1S.-Victor Ar
gatone, shift boss at the Mountain Iron
iron milling pit, was gradually crushed
to death in an ore mill while his fellow
workers stood by, unable to do any
thing to save his life.
Argatone went to the mouth of the
pit to blast rock. when the ore start
ed to flow. Before the other miners
could realize what was happening the
foreman was securely locked in the
deadly embrace of the flowing ore.
For fully two hours the miners la
bored to save the unfortunate man,
but finally were compelled to give up
and to watch him being slowly crushed
to death. Gradually he succumbed to
the terrible pressure, nearly every
bone in his body being crushed when
1t came from the other end Of the mill.

She Liked Notoriety.

The reason she got SO much noto-
riety was partly because she was al
ways doing some crazy thing, and
partly because she wanted to be noto-
rious. Whenever anybody said: Now
just see what Calamity has DONE"
she would go straight out and do
something else. But she was kind
hearted girl there wasn't anything
vicious about her, either. She never
got into fights or wanted to pull a
gun, or anything like that. She was
married to a hack driver named Char
lie Burke, up in Montana along In the
nineties some time, but she didn't live
with him very long.
"She went to the Eastern cities and
showed in museums in what she called
her scouting clothes, and travelled
around considerable, but some way
the Hills always kept calling her back.
She'd come for a few months and
things wouldn't seem like they used
to and she'd go away again. But
she'd no sooner get settled somewhere
than she'd hear the wind in the pine
trees and see the lights in the gay old
streets of little old Deadwood, and re-
member the boys and all, and she'd
come back. The last time she came
she came back to die. She knew it,
too, and when she got up to Terry's 8
she told one of the boys she guessed
she was going to pass in her checks,
and she did. The next day she went
over tie divide. We buried her here
in Deadwoo alongside of Wild Bill.
