two horses has been the only loss of
life.
On the evening of March 25th. Just
after the night shift went on duty, be
fore the town had settled down to it's
evening tasks and pleasures. the people
were startled by the ringing of the fire
bell and in a few moments word had
carried through Lead, Deadwood and
even into the outside camps that the
Homestake was on fire. The blaze
started on the ninth floor of the 600
foot level and consequently was very
near the 500 level 1t was supposed to
have isnited from the blasting out of
some old timbers by the day shift just
before they went off, The homestake
has always been considered an especial
ly well prepared mine for all fire emer
gencies. 1t has ample water ON all
levels, pipe lines, hose and all equip
ment for fighting fire. and yet from
the very beginning, these flames We're
beyond control. The great difficulty
was caused by the forming of the dead
ly carbon dioxide gas which made it
impossible for the men to approach
near the fire. and which overcame them
by the dozens, so that they were car
ried out, either unconscious or raving
in delirium Still the fight in the
dark went on.
On April %, the order to food went
forth, the last resort, and everything,
even the few mills which were still op-
Grating were closed The workings of
the mine are 1850 feet deep, and there
are over a hundred miles of under
ground channels. The natural inflow
of water into the mine filled it to the
100 foot level, and from there up, the
work of filling was accomplished in an
unexpectedly short time. The space to
be filled amounted to 6S, 393, 621 cubic
feet, and required 507, 900, 900 gallons of
water.
That the fire is out, is, however, a
great source of satisfaction to the en-
tile country, Several hundred men
have already gone to work and this
force will be increased steadily. 1t is
not too much to hope tnat the mine
will be unwatered, and running at its
full capacity by the first of August,
at the fartheimost, and the loss to the
company, inclusive of the bullion loss,
will probably not exceed one and
quarter million dollars.

New York, June 4-There was a

severe in the Pacific railroads and the

GIFT OF CURIOS.
Yankton College Receives Gift
of Rare Old
Coins.

Yankton, June 3. 3.-Yankton college
has just received a valuable and i'm
portant gift of ancient coins and other
articles from Mr. A. W. Westhrope of
this city, as a contribution in houor of
the twenty fiftn anniversary OF the in
stitutaion, which is about to be cele-
brated. Mr. Westhrope, who is city
editor Of the Press and Dakotan, was
in early days a student of the college
and has always been its loyal friend. A
gift of collection of coins was made
by him to the college a number Of
years ago.
The collection of coins just received
comprise over one hundred specimens,
many of them of considerable value.
1t consists of Greek coins from 500 B.
c., of Syracuse, Athens, Corinth,
Rhodes, etc. and fine series OF coins
of ancient Rome, showing some fifty
different emperors, including Augustus,
Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Nero,
Gabla, Vespasian, Titus, Domitian,
Nerva, Trajan, Antoninu,, Marcus Au.
relius, Conmodus, Severus. Alexander,
Decius, Dioletian and many other en-
porers in silver and bronze.
A second part of the gift is collec-
ton of fragments of Roman pottery,
which We're picked up by Mr.. Wes-
thrope east September on his visit to
his native England at Ariconium,
Herefordshire, once an important city
under the Roman occupation and on
the direct road from Glevum (Glou
cester) to Kenchester. The city was
destroyed, it is said, by an earth
quake, and was buried as are Pompeii
and Herculaneum. MIR. Westhrope
himself, whose opinion as an anti
quarian is of weight, is inclined to be-
lieve from his own examination at the
site that the destruction of the city
was due to the falling in of the iron
mines conducted at the spot, the catas
trophe having taken place (from the
ceasing of the Roman coins picked ul
there) about the reign of Teod osius, 395

10 Great Change In the situation
Apparent.

Paris, June although It cannot
be said that any great change has
taken place In the seamen's strike the
situation Is brighter and there are
hopes Of an early settlement OF the
dispute. The deputies representing
the maritime districts are warning the
men that they have been too precipi-
tate and are alternating public SYM
pathy by abruptly paralyzing the
trade, besides subjecting themselves
to heavy penalties.
Havre, France, June 4.-The strik-
Ing seamen here have sent an urgent
appeal to their English comrades at
Southampton not to allow emigrants
from Havre to go on board British
vessels at that port for transportation
to the United States and assurances
have been obtained from Cherbourg
that strikers will try to prevent their
embarkation there.
There was q lively riot here be-
tween striking fishermen and fisher
women and non-striking flsherwomen
and fishermen. The latter were as
sailed by the former, who, after a
struggle, emptied their fish baskets.
A number of arrests were made.
