TICKY CATTLE.

Capt. Hugh Thomson, sub-chief
Inspector for the Bureau of Animal In
dustry, is now in the infested cattle
tick district along the bordering coun-
ties of Kentucky and Tennessee max
ing Investigations and enforcing the
new quarantine law when necessary.
From reports, the ticks have spread,
and it will require some time to stamp
them out. Several sections of Cum
berland county were quarantined last
Fall, and it is believed that the infec-
ton was overcome in that county. The
penalty fixed by the laws of Tennessee
for violating the quarantine law is
fine of not less than $50 nor more than
$500 for each offense. Louisville Times.

ENOUGH FOR HIM.

A Lincoln county man last Spring be-
came infatuated with the rapturous sto-
ries of the West, teeming with pros
perity and undeveloped wealth, dis
posed of his Kentucky interests and 10
Gated in Indian Territory. There he
purchased farm and cultivated it to
find that its powers of production were
about half as prolific as the soil of Ken
lucky and that the markets are much
inferior In fact the same grade of
corn that is now selling in Kentucky at
60 cents per bushel is drag on the In
dian Territory market at half that
amount-30 cents. So this now wiser
Kentuckian contends that one acre Of
good land in this section is worth four
in the West, and he has the figures on
it and figures won't lie -Harrodsburg

SETTLE EN- AT HOME.

The trouble between some small boys
last week was settled by fall hearing
of the case in the Court House, and
showed the Importance of curfew law
in this town. Boys are boys, some
very rude and some very much so,
while bat few, if any, are as consider
ate as the average parent may believe.
1t is hard to tell what course is best to
pursue in case like the one of last
week, but our judgment is that the
Court House is not the best place to
settle such troubles or infict adequate
Punishment fer misdemeanor. 1t ought
ts be done at home, and in accordance
with the direction given by Solomon.

Terr,sic Ming Explosion.

Fairmont, w. Va, Dee, SIX
charred and hlsckened bodies lying n
the improvisen motRue prepared nea
the entrance of the mine, five men
lowering between life and death from
the Tful bru ses sustained and the
'esdly gases inhaled in a temporary
hospital into which one of the com
pany buildings has been Transformed,
and $40 men imprisoned by tons Of
coal, rock and the debris in the depths
of the hill surrounding this mining
town, with the chances all against
single one of them being alive, is the
most accurate summary obtainable at
this time OF the results Of the ~ inc ex-
plosion yesterday which in all proba-
bility was attended by greater loss Of
life than any former disaster in the
history of the bituminous coal mining
industry In America.
The disaster occurred at mines Nos.
6 and 8, of the Fairmont Coal Co., OPP
posite Monongah, on the West Fork
river, yesterday, after the full force of
800 men had gone to work in the two
mines.
LITTLE is ACCOMPLISHED.
The finding of the six corpses and
the five badly Injured men is the only
reward for the strenuous and unin-
terrupted labor on the part of the large
reseuing forces hat Immediately set
to work at every possible point.
The five living men are unable to
give any detailed report Of the disaster
or to even explain how they reached
the surface.
The work of rescue began promptly
the superintendents and officers were
on the ground half an hour after the
explosion had happened and the work
Of rel eff begin Immediately. The de ad
ly fire damp made it utterly imp ossi-
bic to do much work early in the day,
especially at Mine No. s, where the ex-
plosion had completely wrecked the
fan until another fan could be brought
from Shinnston, II miles away, aud
put in working order. The men labor
ed at disadvantage, but were able TO
save several lives.

Sentinel Butte Loses to wibaux.

A large delegation from; Beach went
over to Wibaux Sunday to witness the
game of baseball, Sentinel Butte VS.. Wi
baux Reports are that with the excep-
tons of couple of players, the Montana
village has an entirely new lineup; "a
pitcher from Chicago. first basennan and
fielder, who were on the Fessenden team
last year and catcher from jamestown,
making a pretty fast aggregation. They
are not considered salaried players as all>
have employment as sheep shearers. This
fast bunch lined-up on the diamond in
new suits and made such good appear
ance that the visiting team went into the
game with fear, but soon they saw they
were not at all outclassed. Only for couple
errors the cow punchers from down the
line and a couple of our tillers of the soil,
would have carried of the honors. 1t is
said that the wool clippers made an un-
rulable play in the eighth inning and left
the diamond before descision was given
by the umpire; there was two outs and the
visitors had all the bases filled and good
batter at the plate, who undoubtedly would
have made safe hit and at least tied the
score. Neither sides tailed in the nineth
inning and the game resulted in victory
tor Wibaux by score of to $. We
pity that new aggregation very much,
that they could not beat the Butte team,
and do it fairly. Those who witnessed
the game are confident that Beach will
win the game there at the celebration

THREE MEN LOST.
In Flood on Milwaukee Extension
South.

9OUHWs
Contractor d. ]. Griffith Of Jaudon, Mo-,
who has eleven camps of sub-contractors
and graders on the Milwaukee extension
in Billings and Bowman counties has been
in the city this week for supplies.
Mr.. Griffith reports that number of
his camps were practically laid waste by
flood last Saturday evening when the rain
and hail fell in sheets and torrents for
about four hours with but a few minutes
intermission during the deluge.
The camps were located on Hay creek
east, and on Beaver creek west of the
Little Missouri river, and all suffered
more or less damage. A fierce gale ac-
companied the rain and hail; and cook
tents camp tents and horse stables were
torn to pieces like so much tissue paper.
Provisions, harness and equipment were
carried down the valley and either lost or
destroyed.
Three men lost their lives in the storm
and many others had narrow escapes.
Contractor Pat Quinlin of Fort Dodge,
Iowa, was one of the victims: Joseph
Smith, ]aborer IN the employ of Con-
tractor Robert kinkaid, was drowned in
Contractor James Tobin's camp on Hay
creek. Mr.. Clark, a farmer, who was
employed in one of the camps on Beaver
creek. was drowned
The storm started from the southeast at
about 4 p. m. and was followed by regu-
lar food from the northwest. The course
OF the storm being in the Bad Lands, the
damage TO the road bed amounts TO con-
siderable though the delay caused by the
loss of equipment, will amount to more in
dollars and cents
Jack Guth, former resident Of this
locality, who has been running tent
hotel in that country, reports that he is the
loser of a large amount of provision and
outfit, his camp being under water when
he left the first of the week. He also
stated that the water in the Little Mis-
souri, raised 10 feet in less than four hours
and that Hay creek and other creeks in
that locality rose from 3 to $ feet.
Contractors D. ]. Griffith. A. r. Gill;
land, l.. NJ. Scrivner, Robert kinkaid,
James Tobin, ]. w. Sutherland, Quinlan
Bros. and Griffith & Mcclure are among
sthose along the line to suffer losses.
