DRUNKEN MINERS
KILLED IN RIOT

Johnstown, Pa, April I'm a
riot at the Windber mines near here
last night three foreigners were shot
dead by deputies, boy fatally wounc-
ed and Eugene Delaney, mining engi-
neer, taken to the hospital seriously
hurt. The riot was the result OF
an attack on the part of striking min
ers to rescue some of their comrades
who had been placed under arrest. A
state of terror prevails. Sheriff Beg
lev has been summoned and an appeal
has been made to Governor Penny
packer for troops.
Late in the night the bodies OF the
dead were removed from the streets
to an undertaker's establishment
Charles Foster, the boy who was
wounded, died at a hospital. The
bodies lay for hours in the street
where they fell, the strikers refusing
to allow undertakers to remove them.
The foreign element has been cele-
brating Easter Monday and much
liquor had been used.

WHEN THE PLoWs START.

Superior Telegram.-It is blowing
time. Two hundred million acres OF
land will be plowed this year in the
United States, and about 5000 600
plows on the farms will do the work.
The capital invested in the plows
alone represents $80,00O,0OO. Such a
multitude of types of plows and plow-
ers can be found on this continent
that we can but name few. In the
great southwest, the Mohave, with
his three or four squaws, starts for the
planting ground. Each woman carries
her digging stick, the most primitive
of all ploWs, and the man stands guard
all day while the original farmers" OF
this country dig the land and plaat
their gourd seeds. In Canada, but for
the interference of the government,
the spectacle might be seen of Douk-
hobor women drawing the plow ex-
actly in the same way that they have
done for centuries. In New England
the oxen are being yoked, and in the
middle west the four-horse teams
are ready. In the south the negro sits
on his pillow silt to watch the train
go by. In some parts of the country
we find traction engines at work,
blowing forty or more acres day, and
requiring but two or three men to do
it. Verify, it is a great country.

COUNTRY OF THE COW PuNcHER

On all sides of the little town lay
the glorious sweep of untamed coun-
try. To find another railroad to the
northward was to ride a hundred and
fifty miles to the Canadian Pacific, to
find railroad to the southwark meant
as long ride to the Northern Pacific.
On the edge of the town a freighters'
outfit was making ready to pull out
four days to a camp near the Little
Rockies. Ten horses led the string
of laden wagons, behind which trailed
the covered chuck-wagon, equipped
for sleeping and cooking, for there
were no hotels on this route.
The boss and his two helpers were
wrestling with broncho which, until
this Inflated day, had never felt
harness across his back. He was
needed as an off-wheeler, and he had
to go. He fought like a hero pos
sessed of seven devils, and three men
toiled for an hour to get him into the
traces and to keep clear from his in
formally active heels.
At length, his nine comrades jump
ed into their collars and the rebel
simply had to go with them. He lay
down and was dragged on his ear I'M
til his added wits perceived there
was nothing in this sort of mutiny.
He rose and slid stiff-legged until, out
numbered, outvoted and outgeneraled,
he surged into the collar like
thunderbolt and thereafter tried to
pull the whole load, in the vain hope
of tearing something out by the
roots.
The long string of horses and
wagons wound out into the open coun-
try, and in little while dipped
across a grassy undulation and was
gone. A swirl of dust marked its
progress for several miles, this plod-
ding caravan, with it's tanned and
bearded men, unlettered and slow of
speech, used to living out under the
sky, seeing few of their kind. 1t was
thus the pioneers crossed the plains
a half centudy ago.-Ralph D. Paine
in Outing Magazine.

TROUT FISHING
AND THE LAW
REGULATING It

Brook trout, the prettiest and most
interesting of all the fish of Wiscon-
sin waters, is the first to be exposed
to the malignant pursuit of the sports
man. This year the season opens
Nav 1, and many an angler is already
prepared for dash to the streams
where the remnant of the speckled
1eaudes are hiding. 1t is no unusual
sight along some of the best known
trout streams, to see fishermen, rod
in hand. waiting for tAe mtd' ig
that marks the close of April and the
beginning of May This is particular
~ true in nort..erl Michigan where
CITY fishermen have con

sin law regulating trout fishing is as
follows: 1t is hereby prohibited anu
made unlawful,

HE MISSED HER.

st Louis Republic.-The senators
who expected to see Senator Tlllman
rampage" around the railroad-rate
bill, of which he is in charge, on the
floor are discouraged. Every day they
go to the senate thinking there will be
on explosion and every day they are
disappointed.
Tillman's sltn ia turning corners,
and the attitude of the public, remind
me of the knife-thrower who was ex-
hibiting his proves in a variety
theater," said the Senator. He had
been accustomed to stand a very
pretty young woman up against a
board and throw big knives at her,
which barely missed her, but which
did miss her and outlined her foru
against the board. One night his as
sistant was i'll, and the knife thrower
was obliged to substitute his wife,
who was an old and ugly woman. 1t
struck beside her head.
Ny Gawdl' shouted a man in the
gallery. He's missed her!'

of Richmond Byers, the six-year-olt
son of DR.. S. L. Byers, a newspaper
man of Seelyville, Ind, who was stolen
from his home, presumably by band
of rowing horse traders, nearly two
years ago. 1t is said that DR.. Byers
has expended all his means in fruit
less search for his little boy, and now
makes an appeal to his brethren of the
newspaper profession. The missing
boy is of light complexion, has gray
eyes, left eye noticeably crossed,
small V shaped nick in the left ear,
sharp chin and narrow, projecting
forehead. He is rather small for his
age and is unusually bright and intel
ligent, talking in the manner of
boy much older. 1t is his fathers
theory that the kidnapers took MIN
for the purpose of forcing him to beg
for them. Will you print this para
graph and assist in a worthy effort?
