Cheyenne, Wyo., June 22-Dr W.
F. Pflaeging, state veterinari an,
and DR.. Lowell Clark, agent in
charge of this district for the animal
industry bureau, have completed a
preliminary investigation of the
death of several thousand Natrona
county sheep from the ravages of a
new kind of fly. They found that
this fly, during the months of July,
August and September. lays its eggs
in the nasal passages and cavities of
sheep. The eggs later develop into
larvae and these cause inflammation
of the nasal cavities, followed by
nervous disorders and death usually
about ten months after the eggs are
laid.
Stomachs from sheep killed by the
flies have been sent to the state
chemist for analysis, in an effort to
determine the general physical effect
of the larvae. There is no known
way to combat the ravages of those
flies

men lost their lives when the river
steamer Crystal Stream was burned Mt
her dock at Coles island. Washads-

It is not known whether the VIC
tins, all of whom were deckhands,
were suffocated and burned in their
hunks, or whether they were awaken

flames which surrounded them. Their
bodies were recovered today, all
charred almost beyond recognition.
Mate Herbert McLeery was severe
ly burned and was brought TO hos
pital here today. Several others o1
the crew were slightly burned.
The cause of the fire is unknown
but it evidently started in some bale

OF Interest to Newspaper Patrons.

~ ASWS1oPCA 1dl1OuS.
On Monday there was case in JUS
tlce Cuttings court which we deem
worthy of mention, not with view Of
giving publicity to what might be called
private business affair, but for the
instruction and information of those
newspaper patrons who think that they
can continue to receive, read and OBJ
tain the benefits of a paper for time
either long or short and evade payment
for same. The case was one brought
against Julius Doolittle by Mrs. Adams,
former publisher of the Times, who
claimed $40 due her on subscription ac-
count for II years, one year of which
had been paid. Mr.. Doolittle set up
the claim that he had never subscribed
for the Times, but that soon after the
paper was bought by Mr.. and Mrs.
Adams, his father on his own motion.
paid dollar for one years subscription
to his address, and that the paper was
continued thereafter without authority.
He admitted that he had taken the
paper from the postofice and received
its benefits. Trial was had to 4 iury
which took but little time to render q
verdict giving Mrs. Adams Judgment
for the full amount of her claim with
interest and costs.

Some comment has been heard that
Mr.. Bryan was not given a suitable
welcome during his stay in the city last
Friday, and that he should have been
rendered reception during the day or
evening. The democrats of Cresco de-
cided that under all the circumstances
it would be the height of improperly
to do anything that might in any way
be construed into an attempt to make
la public and political affair of his visit
to Cresco. He had been engaged by
the committee as the star attraction of
the Home Coming, and to in any way
detract from Mr.. Bryan's value to them
as an attraction would be great in
justice to Them. and public reception
where any and all might meet him
would certainly interfere with his val
ue to the committee as drawing card.
The individual who might wish to call
on Mr.. Bryan at Mr.. McCook's home
where he was entertained would Ger
tainly have been made welcome by the
family. Furthermore, Mr.. Bryan's
wishes in the matter were not known
until after his arrival, when he hearth
ly acquiesced in all arrangements which
had been made for his stay and stated
that only four hours sleep the night
previous made the quiet of his room
very welcome after his lecture engage
ment was over and until the hour for
his departure arrived. The impropriety
and injustice to the committee of a
public reception was also recognized by
those in charge Of the entertainment of
Governor Cummins the day following,
and no attempt was made to make
either a social or political affair of the
state executives stay in the city.

Base Ball Games Won and Lost.
HARMoNY-cREsco

On Friday of last week Cresco shut
out the strong Harmony team in 6
game so one-sided that it was quite un-
interesting. The score by innings is as
follows:
Harmony .... .0-O-O-O-O-O-O-0-0-O-44 a 8
Cresco. 49,. .3-0-O-O-4-0-O-O- -7-6-1

DEBORAH -cREsco
Decorah promised Cresco licking in
the game of last Saturday and they
fulfilled their promise, but by score
which kept them on the anxious seat
until the last inning was played A
hit by Kenyon in Decorah's first in
ming and an error by johnson gave the
visitors the only score of the game.
Both teams are fast and are we'll
matched with the exception that De-
corah has perhaps heavier batting
team. The score by innings:

Umpire-Rev. Hill.
In the 7th inning, one of the Decor
ah team, Freidlein, of Guttenburg, was
injured by pitched ball, and Sullivan
of Burr Oak substituted for him.
ICALMAR- -cREsco.
The game at Calmar last Sunday was
ended in the fifth inning when Cresco
left the field in disgust at the open
attempt of the umpire, ..Deily, who is
Calmar's regular pitcher, to steal the
game for them. EDeily is the same
person who umpired Egame at Deco
rah on the 4th of July between Deco
rah and Calmar and was accused by
the former town of stealing that game
for Calmar. After last Sundays ex-
perience, the Cresco boys have no mis-
givings regarding the truth of Decor
abs accusations. In the first inning,
Czizek hit for first base and brought in
atscore for Cresco, and Story and Bald
win brought in one apiece in the fourth.
Calmar had nothing up to the fifth
when they were given three by the
umpire. All through the game the
umpire had given Cresco dirty deal
but the boys thought further playing
useless when Deily called a base run
ner safe who was coming home from
third and was met several feet from
the base and touched by Chapman with
the ball in his hands, and accordingly
quit the field.

AN UNQUALIFIED SUCCESS.
The "Home Coming" Draws Big
Crowds and Pleases All.

The Home Coming" last week was
an unqualified success in every point
save, perhaps one, and that was the
somewhat small number of older set
tiers Of the county who were able tt
return and participate in the gathering
But all things must have beginning
and it is thought that the success ir
every other way will encourage the
continuance of the Home Comings'
/ in future years, and that the number
! of those from distance in attendance
will increase with each repetition OF
the event.
The committee are to be congratu-
lated on the entire success of the af-
fair, in regard to the lecturers, the
entertainments and the sports provided.
Seldom are three better lecturers
found on any Chautauqua program than
were the three provided by the COM
mittee. Bryan was easily the big
attraction, over $500 people crowding
into the big tent to hear him, and none
were disappointed. While many there
were present who disagreed with him
politically, yet no one scan say other
than that Bryan is honest and sincere
in his utterances, and with the courage
of his convictions, and that his life's
ideal is the uplifting and betterment of
the government, and that he places
this betterment far above the plane of
mere partisan politics. Had the weather
been more propitious early on the morn
ing of this day, Cresco would have
seen one Of the biggest crowds in its
history.
Governor Cummins address on Satur-
day afternoon was listened to by a
large audience. While his address was
devoted to Reform and Reformers"
his more specific utterances were
directed to the railroad question, and
the Governors views upon this question
are to well known to need review.
In Father MacC Cory, the committee
had the pleasure Of presenting a
finished orator who held the closest
attention of his large audience until
the close of his wonderful address which
took the whole range of emotion from
laughter producing wit to tear inducing
pathos, and was at the same time re-
Iplete with much solid instruction.
The result of the ball games and
tennis matches will receive mention
elsewhere.
The work of Boughton, the magician,
and Vernon, the ventriloquist, were
very good, and formed no small or in
ferior part of the excellent evening
entertainments provided. The Caro-
linian Jubilee Singers made hit with
the audience at their first appearance,
and their popularity increased with
every appearance, until the concert of
Sunday evening brought out one of the
largest audiences of the course. They
are all good singers and are ladies and
gentlemen on and off the platform.
The old settlers meeting on Satur-
day morning was notsvery well attens
ded, but several interesting addresses
and talks were made by VIM. Woodard,
N. S, Durgin, Willard Converse, Dan
Horan, Mrs. Adams and S. L. Cary.

Cresco nearly every year since left

of the story of the ash man noted for
swearing. Passing the school house
at the foot of hill, with a wagon box
full of loose ashes, the boys took in the

hear him swear, they followed, let
down the tail board of the wagon and
followed on near to the top of the hill,
