ling Rock in No. Mine
Wednesday Noon.

William Seelye, miner, was
killed by being struck by falling
rock ii the Roundup Coal Mining
Co.'s mine here shortly after noon
Wednesday. Death ensued instan-
taneously. The rock fell without
warning, stricking Seelye on the
right side of the head, breaking his
skull and crushing his face.
The victim Of the accident had
just finished his midday meal to-
gether with three fellow workmen,
Alex Fairgrieve, Adam Wilkinson
and H. McCann, in one of the
rooms of the mine. Saying that he
was getting cold, he picked up his
pick and started swinging it around
in order to warm himself up, when
without any previous warning what
ever, heavy rock about foot in
diameter was in some manner dis
lodged and fell, striking him down
as stated above. The body was
brought to town, coroner's inquest
being held over the remains last
night, the finding of the jury being
that the deceased came to his death
by purely accidental means. Coun-
ty Coroner Kreel of Lewistown, and
State Mine Inspector McDermott,
of Helena, were present at the in
quest.
William Seelye, the deceased,
was about 80 years Of age. He
came to Roundup to work in the
mines several months ago from
Miles City in which city his mother
and a sister resides. His folks haye
ceen communicated with, and, IL
accordance with their instructions,
the body will be sent to Miles City
on tonight's passenger for burial.
The deceased was a member O
the X. P. Lodge of this place, and
the Miners Union which orders have
charge OF the remains. He en-
joyed a large circle of friends here
I
) and the news of his sudden and III
timely death was severe shock t
them. The sympathy of the entir
community goes out to the afflicted
mother and sister in their sad loss
This is the first fatal accident t

mines.

A n[RR1 (HA5t
Alleged RustIer, Said to Have Stolen
3 Horses from Newton Caught
in South Dakota.

Travelling by rail and overland,
hurrying onward without rest or
sleep on trail which led over
ranges, across streams and through
broken country, Sheriff Orrick, of
Yellowstone county, reached the
goal for which he was headed at Bel
fouche, S. D., and arrested Clarence
Babcock, who is alleged to have stol-
EN- three horses belonging to J. w.
Newton, of this place. The officer
has returned to Billings with his
prisoner. 1t is said that Babcock
is wanted on numerous other sim
ular charges.
The horses are alleged to have
been stolen about three weeks ago.
When the matter was reported to
the sheriff he at once began an in
J vestigation. He finally obtained a
clcw which caused him to take the
train to Sheridan, Wyo., and there,
in company with Stock Inspector
Frank Mead Of Lame Deer, horses
were secured and the long chase
was on. Babcock's trail was struck
about 20 miles from Sheridan. 1t
led across the range into 4 broken
country toward Bcllefourche. The
animals ridden by the officers soon
gave out under the hard usage to
which they were put, and Others
were secured and tn" chase was
continued until Alseada was reached.
Babcock had Is days the start of
the officers. The trail was lost,
and for SO miles no trace of the al
: legged thief could be found. When
Alseada was reached the horses
were unable to 90 farther and others
could not be secured An automO-
bile was secured and the 155 miles
from that place to Bellefourche
were covered in record d-brcaking
time, so that the office reached their
destination only about 80 hours
after Babcock had arrived. En-
| route Sheriff Orrick had wired a
description Of Babcock to Sheriff
Moses at Bellefourchc, and the
hunted man was behind the bars o.
. the county jail when the pursuers
I reached the city. Babcock was ar
E !. rested by Moses while he was bar
tcrjng with prospective purchase
q for two of the horses.

BIG YIELDS
First Attempts at Dry Farming Near
Roundup Result in Enormous
Yields.

The thrcshing Of the first crops Of
grains raised near Roundup under
the dry farming system was COM
pleted thi sweek and the skeptic who
has been wont to explain that the
bench lands in this state were only
suitable for grazing of sheep and
cattle stands aghast with dropped
chin, and reluctantly is compelled
to admit the success, in a measure
anyway, of the new order of things.
Altho the acreage of grain sown
was not very large. the startling re-
suits attained are sufficient to en-
courage those who are already en-
gagged in the cultivation of the soil
here, and will be the means of prov
ing to the newcomers the fertility
and productiveness of our soil, and
the possibility of raising crops un-
der the conditions which exist here.
J. NJ. Pyles raised GOO bushels of
oats of high grade ON II acres on
the bench just north of Roundup, Il
yield of so bushels to the acre.
The yield on the +. c. Clausen
ranch west OF town was 26 bushels
of winter wheat, 81 II bushels OF
spelz and 35 bushels of hcardlcss
barley to the acre.
M. M. Klein had ii seven-acre
field of winter wheat on the hillside
back OF his home which went -
bushels to the acre and Al wheat
at that.
Magnus Lindstrand, Of Elso, had
4 yield Of so bushels, Of oats to the
acre.
The most phenomenal yield il
