''RuBE" ROBBINS
May GET PENSION

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Feb. T.
Senator Hepburn has introduced a
special bill in the senate granting a
pension TO Orlando, better known as
"Rube' Robbins of Boise
{ On account OF the fact that Mr..
Robbins was never regularly Unlisted
for lin to secure a pension through
the regular channels, and whatever
relief he gets will have to come
through the passage of a special bill
by congress in his behalf.
Mr.. Robbins has led a very event.
full life. He was chief of scouts un-
der General Howard during three
Indian wars; the Nez Perez in 1877,
the Bannock in 1878, and the Sheap-
eater war in 1879. 1t is said that dur
ing these wars he risked his life on
many occasions and always for the
safety Of others.
In addition to his services in the
Indian wars Mr.. Robinsb was deputy
United States marshal for Idaho
from 1863 to 1888, during the admin
istration OF six United States mar
shals.
1t IL reported that he is now In very
great need Of the aid asked for him.
and 1t is to be hoped that Senator
Hepburn will be successful in secur-
ing the passage Of his bill in the SEN
ate, and that It may then be passed
through the house.

SEVEN RAILWAY KINGS
IN THE UNITED STATES

OF railway presidents in the United
States there are hundreds. OF railway
kings there are but seven. The presi-
dent Is the executive chief OF a single
line. The king is the financial ruler Of
a system of affiliated lines He may
not be even an officer OF any one line.
and yet be the king of the system J.
Pierpont Morgan, for instance, does not
hold any important railroad Office. yet
he is the monarch over one-fifth of the
mileage OF the United States. Ex-Judge
William II. Moore, the king of the Rock
Island system, is only a director of the
road. Ability TO run a railroad is one
thing Ability to finance a railroad or
a system of railroads is another thing
The seven kings, in the order Of their
importance, are: j. Pierpont Morgan.
Edward H Hartman, william X Van
dcrbilt. Henry 9. Prick. James j. Hill,
George J. Gould. and William II. Moore
Their domain comprises more than 16l 600
miles Of railroad track, with earnings Of
I.06,OOO.0e0 a year. Outside of their
seven dominions are to be found but 25
per cent OF the total mileage Of the
country, and but Is per cent of the rail-
road earnings. This nation Of forty-five
sovereign States seems 20 be entering
into a struggle with these seven kings
and their army OF officers and en-
ployes.-Current Literature

GAME SUFFERS FROM COLD.

Throughout the forest districts OF
Bohemia, Moravia, and South Germany.
wild deer. hares and partridges have
suffered severely owing to the long
hard winter, writes correspondent Of
the Pail Mall Gazette. In some parts
the hares are almost extinct, and thou
sands Of partridges have succumbed TO
cold and hunger. The larger game have
become so weak that Il Is doubtful
whether many Of them can keep alive
until spring brings green food. Then
there Is the further danger that in their
famished condition they may eat too
greedily OF the fresh vegetation and
suffer accordingly. Hence the sport
ing prospects for next season are by no
means hopeful. For, with probably
greatly diminished bags, the sportsman
will have TO pay much higher prices for
shooting grounds. the owners having in
creased the rents, sometimes as much
as 100 per cent over last seasons figures.

BODY was found at ten o'clock Tues
day morning under a tree about a
mile from the house. The boy had
placed the gun in a crotch of the tree,
taken one Of his shoe laces and
fastened one end to the trigger and
the other to the tree, then sat down
and pulled the gun towards him.
The charge entered the breast tearing
the heart, causing instant death.
The affair is one of the saddest
ever known in this community. The
parents were driven nearly frantic by
their grief, which no amount of
sympathy can alleviate.
Funeral services were held at the
home Wednesday afternoon, conduct
ed by Rev. Henry Preston, of the

mains placed at rest in the De Smet
