the lands in Gregory county, which
were opened in 1904. They are said
to be very desirable for farming and
stock raising purposes and similar
lands in adjoining counties are selling
for good prices. The plan adopted for
this registration and drawing is sim
liar to that used in the Gregory open
ing, but certain Objectionable features
which imposed hardships on appli-
cants for registration have been elm
mated. At the Gregory and former
openings applicants were required to
appear in person and stand in line,
often for a considerable length of
time, until officers Of the government
examined into and determined their
qualifications and registered them,
while. at this opening no line will be
formed and the people will be permit

mail or otherwise to the superintend-

one of the towns heretofore men,

months during. the Civil war, the
Spanish-American war or the Philip
pine insurrection will not be required
to visit the towns mentioned for the
purpose of registering, but may reg

Queer Virginia Oysters.

The Daring Pike.

The boldness of a pike Is very ex

I have been standing, and the head
keeper of Richmond park assured me
that he was once washing his hand al
the side of boat in the great pon0
in that park when pike made dar'

draw it.

up his shirt sleeves and went into the
water to intercept the return Of the fist
to the river and to endeavor to throw
it upon the bank by getting his hands

Daniel O'Connell, the famous orator
when taking a ride in the neighbor

an urchin to open a gate for him. The
little fellow complied with much alac

sixpence."
Riding briskly on, he soon forgot thu
incident and fell to thinking of graveI
matters, when, after travelling some
miles, he found his path obstructed by
some fallen timber, which a boy wa,
stoutly endeavoring to remove. Or
looking more closely he discovered II
to be the same boy he had met in the
morning.
"What!' cried he. "How do yol

is believed, has shut off all means of

shut off are all in the lower part of
the mine. A telephone message from
the scene stated the fire was burning
so iiercely that it was impossible for
rescuers to enter the shaft and it was
then believed the entombed men must
surely be burned to death. All of the
miners are foreigners. A number of
miners working near the opening
managed to escape.

The fire is said to have started soon
after the day shift went to work It
appears that barrel of oil caught fire
and later exploded, spreading burning
oil in all directions. The fire spread
with such rapidity that the miners on
the lower tiers were unable to reach
the shaft and all escape was cut off.
Soon after the fate of the entombed
men became generally known crowds
of wildly excited women and children,
