MANY DEATHS IN WYO-
MING RANGE WAR

Cheyenne, Wyo., Mar. 26.-Twenty
dead, scores wounded and $200,0 900
worth of sheep killed is the record of
the last year in the bitter range war
between the cattlemen and sheep
herders, which has broken out afresh
with prospects of more bloody encoun
ters soon to follow. Out on the Wyo-
ming range many bands of determined
cowboys and sheepmen are facing
eacn other, armed to the teeth, with
only an imaginary dead line between
them and a desperate battle. Should
either side invade the territory of the
other hostilities will almost certainly
follow, and many additional victims
be added to the already long list OF
fifteen years of warfare between the
cattle kings and the sheep owners.
Already few preliminary skir
mishes have taken place and thous-
ands of sheep killed. A few weeks
ago the nerd of 5000 sheep belonging
to Hugh Dickey, which was grazing
in the Owl Creek mountain district,
strayed across the dead line Speedy
vengeance was visited on the herders,
who were attacked at night by a band
of masked men, bound and gagged
and half of the herd of sheep wanton-
ly killed, while the others scattered
over the hills. So far as known no
attempts at reprisa1 vave yet been
made by the sheep owners.

George M. Slaughter, who returned
last night from the Fort Worth con-
vention of cattIemen, is full of entnu-
siasm as to the success of RoswelPs
meeting in April. He reports that he
has been overwhelmed with inquiries
as to the details of the convention
and the plans for entertainment, and
that he has been given assurances
that there will be a record-breaking
crowd in attendance. He mas the pro-
mise of many prominent Texans that

ing is Senator Morris Shepherd.

Great EnoIish steeoIecbase.

Liverpool, March 26.-The Great
National steeplechase, the great ev-
ent of the year among the gentlemen
horsemen of England, will be run ov
er the Aintree course here tomorrow
and is attracting wide attention.
Among the sixty-five nominations are
four horses which are the property
of Americans, including Grant Hugh
Browns John NJ. P, Foxhall Keen's
Prophet HI, and Thomas Clyde's Gin
ders and Darine. Browns entry is
considered as having the best chance
of the four, despite his miserable fail
ure last year when he started a IA
vorite, but fell at the end OF three
miles and a half. The Grand Ma
tional of 1906 was soggy course and
it is believed that John NJ. p win
make better showing in tomorrow's
event.

Vile Ministerial Association was held
to discuss this scandalous affair, and
several of the parsons were in favor
of ousting the offending clergyman.
The preacher who officiated at the
stage wedding declared that it was
no worse than a sauer kraut supper
recently held in the church of the
leader of the protesting clerics. A
heated argument followed, a portion
of the ministers declaring in favor of
sauer kraut suppers as a means of
grace, while others held to the opin-
ion that stage weddings were vastly
superior as moral entertainments. The
quarrel mas now been taken up by the
congregations of the ministers in
volved and the controversy is being
waged more bitterly than ever.
