this paper and it is hoped that
al good citizens will beware OF
the treacherous prairie tire>,

of acres of choice grazing land.
These fires usually originated
from small fires started by some
innocent settler, tor the pur.
pose of clearing his field of sage

ness on his part allowed the
fire to get away from his field
and spread throughout the ad

A SAUSY MONTANA
STEER GETS in PRINT

be disappointed, will feel as if
they don't amount to much when
they hear that a steer from the
plains of Northern Montana
went to the windy city the other
day and made such a hit that
all the e"spapers of the town
gave him notices, varying in
extent from half a column to
two columns. Several steers
were shipped to the Chicago
stockyards and six OF them, af.
ter passing restless night in
the noisy city, left the yards
and started out to take in the
town. Five of them were
promptly rounded up and driven
back into the cage. But the
sixth managed to see most of the
sights of the old town before he
was finally subdued and cap
tured.
The steer wildly plunged
through the streets and collided
with a street car. The crash of
breaking glass and the shock of
the collision caused a panic;
women tainted and children
screamed; men We're surprised

DOSTON'S AMAZING WAVE OF CRIME.
Unknown Murderers and SIay- ing ''Yeggs" Puzzle Police.

Boston, Aug. 17.-With seven or eight perplexing murder mysteries on their hands to solve, the killing of two po- licemen, numerous professional holdup men reaping harvest of dollars in Boston and nearby cities and towns and the possibility of the state militia being called out to SCOUT eastern Mas sachusetts for the capture of band of murderous yeggs who have killed four men and wounded a dozen others the police are confronted with one of the most serious problems ever known in the criminal annals of New England.
 The cause of the undeniable wave of crime which has swept over the east ern part of the state is accredited to various reasons, chief among which seems to be the fact that many foreign CTS are out of work and are attempting to adopt the methods of European ban ditti. Doubtless also the several large conventions held in Boston the past two or three weeks have attracted large number of crooks.

FLEE WITH LEPER
 WOMAN AT NIGHT.
Mrs. Costa of Fall River SpiT-
 lied Off to Providence.

Fall River. Mass, Aug. H.-When officials of the local board of health went to the home of Mrs. Mary Costa, an Oregon street resident, who was discovered to be afflicted with leprosy, they found that she had disappeared at night.
 Members of the woman's family and neighbors say that, knowing she was to be sent away, Mrs. Costa was taken to Providence by relatives. 7
 Search was commenced in the Portu- guese settlement for the missing wo- man, but she could not be found. The authorities of Providence and cities in Connecticut and New York were warn ed to be on the lookout for her.
 The health officials placed guard over the house in the day time, but none was left at night. No report of the state board came to the city to make the necessary arrangements for Mrs. Costa's transfer to Penilese island leper colony.
 Mrs. Costa's husband and nine chil- dren are still in the Oregon street house awaiting the action of the state board

GAVE FINE SHOW.
Talent That Took Part in the 0'Brieu
 Benefit

One of the best offerings ever seen
 in this city was that presented by. local talent at Jacques theater last evening for the benefit of Johnnie O'Brien. Arrangements have been made with Miss Mary Gormeley of the tuberculosis league to send the boy to Pine Camp, R. l., where ha will have every care and comfort that | is provided for such cases. The com- mittee reports that about $50 was realized by the performance. The performance was opened by Freddie Casey, who sang Some Day When Dreams Come True" and Child hood" in manner that brought down the house. Manager Clancy of the theater was an interested listener to this act with the result that Freddie may be seen again on the local boards before the end of the stock season. The second on the bill was dancing act offered by Dunn and Creedon and considering that they had but five days in which to prepare for their appearance, they acquitted them selves very creditably. Act No was treat for music lovers. Emile Wey- erman certainly showed that when 1t comes to inducing melody from a mandolin he is there about forty ways. Miss Bertha Sheehy then sang
 By the Old Oaken Bucket, Louise," to repeated encores, and then rem dered My Dream of the U. s. A." Miss Sheehy has very pleasing voice and her singing was a decided hit. Fondella and Cahill, the two we'll known local boys, appeared next. Their natty outing suits and their easy, graceful dancing, netted them encore after encore. Last nights of- fering put all their previous efforts in the shade, which is saying a great deal The Sturdy Oak quartette com- posed of Messrs Brown, Peacock, Cav. anaugh and Bowles, made their sec. ond bow at the Jacques. This act was one of the features of the bill. The boys responded to nine encores and if the applause was to be con- sidered they would be singing yet. Miss Jean Kurten furnished the sev- enth number with a singing turn Miss Kurten rendered Waiting" and As Long as the World Rolls On" in beautiful soprano voice, and was presented with very pretty bouquet of white chrysanthemums and Amer- ican beauty roses. 0'Neil and Nc. Carthy followed in a singing and dancing act. Their turn was well received. Both young men are resi- dents of Washington hill and if they keep up as well as they have started they are certain to make their debut as professionals in the near future. The electrograph closed the bill as usual with humorous views of the Merry Widow dance.
 Every act on the bill was donated. The committee would like to thank s. z. Poli who so gladly contributed the theater and entire house staff to the cause. Also the Fulton Music Go and the Driggs & Smith Co for sheet music furnished, the Majestic thea ter for slides and the different local newspapers, who by their favorable notices did much to make the affair a success.

COLORADO IS SAVED.
Puget Sound Ledge Fails to Hold Ar
 nored Cruiser,

Seattle, Wash, Aug. r. The ar. mored cruiser Colorado, propelled by her own power, has backed from a grounding on the beach near Lip Lip Point, Puget sound, where she had poked her steel bow between monster powders.
 Captain Underwood, commanding the cruiser, estimates that the damage is alone to the vessels hull and that the only harm caused was the springing of plates and bolts on the starboard bow. Through the tiny apertures a quantity of water gained entrance to the for ward compartments.
 The Colorado returned to the navy yard, Puget sound. An inspection to determine repairs needed will be made. A board of inquiry is to be appointed and will hear testimony concerning the accident to fix responsibility.
 Wireless messages for aid sent by Captain Underwood located the cruiser on Double bluff, point in Puget sound. The location of the Colorado on the beach was pronounced by navi. gators as two compass points off the usual course, or two miles.
 The naval tug Navajo and revenue cutter Arcata stood by the Colorado.

Abandon Salt Works.

South Dartmouth. Mass. Aug. IT. The Pandsnarum salt works, the last Of the many salt working plants which were formerly operated along the Massachusetts coast from New burypOrt to Buzzards bay. are being abandoned and 1t Is probable that after the present year the plant viii have entirely disappeared. The works have been in active operation for almost a century and during that time have yielded an average of 5000 bushels. with a record of I4.- 900 bushels in a single season. During latter years however. with the lowering of prices on foreign salt and an advance in living expenses
 the working of the plants wansd un- til now the old Pandanarum works are about tO follow the hundreds Jf others along the coast and disappear.
