Court Attaches a Locomotive.

Sioux Falls, S. D., July 6.-"My
goodness, why doesn't the train go?
Are we going to stay in Sioux Falls all
day." These are two of the express
sions, purged of sulphuric tincture,
that were heard on the southbound
Milwaukee train about noon. Even
when explanations were forthcoming
many could not understand how a 10.
connective could be held when steam
was up and the strong right hand of
the engineer was fairly itching to open
the throttle.
Engine III was held by the issu-
ance of an execution secured by ex-
Snator A. B. Kittredge acting for Mrs.
Martin Westby, who has judgment
against the road for $6,14S.79.
1t was the last day the railroad could
appeal the case and as no appeal was
taken and the money not in sight the
attorney decided upon drastic action.
The attached engine was due to pull
the 1915 train to Chicago via Sioux
City, but that made no difference to
United States Deputy Marshal Jerry
Carleton, who served the papers. That
was the particular engine he had tax
en- fancy to. anyway.
Placed In Storage.
Railway officials got purple above
their collars. but the man with the law
behind him smiled cheerfully. In or.
der to move their train and the United
States mails, 1t was necessary to get
another engine from Harrisburg, and
this the officials were able to do within
couple of hours.
About this time the deputy marshal
asked the railroad company to put the
engine in the round house for him.
They laughed at him and told him
to do it himself. Later on, however
they complied with his request and the
engine is now lodged in the round
house, and Is for sale.
Who wants good healthy engine?

Rhinoceros a Bad Foe.

While easily stalked. the rhinoceros
is dangerous customer, as most men
will agree who have hunted him. II
the rhinoceros gets ones scent he al
most invariably charges. often proba-
bly, from sheer curiosity. but that does
not make him any the easier to dis
pose of. Moreover, he runs and turns
at q speed inconceivable in q beast Of
his vast bulk. Against his massive.
sloping head the heaviest bullet Is a
mere flea bite, leaving no possibility Of
stopping shot except with a hard
nose ball sent fairly into the heart
through the chest. An alternative is to
stand absolutely motionless, when
with his bad eyesight there is a posi-
bility he may mistake you for tree
and veer past. Indeed, the best ruse
in the crisis Of any charge is to stand
fast and still, for even the unwounded
lion sometimes swerves in his charge
and retires before man who has the
nerve to wait his coming. - Edgar
Beecher Bronson in Century.

Woman on the Bench.

Lyman Lazarus, for many years re-
corder of Bayonne, knew the people
who came before him. When wo-
man appeared to accuse a husband
who had beaten her he said, "If
send him to jail you'll come back here
tomorrow in tears and ask me to let
him out" NO" she said, 81 will not.
I'd like to have him punished" How
much shall | give him them" asked
Lazarus-"two months. one month, six
monthsY' The woman. who had begun
to relent, was speechless. 'T'll tell you
what I'll do" he said. You come up
here and take my chair, and whatever
sentence you pronounce will CO." The
woman hesitated, but the recorder in
sisted. The husband was arraigned be-
fore her, and the recorder in a gruf
voice ordered her to pronounce SEN
tence. "Six months, three months, two
months, a month-quick." he said; 'let
US have It." The woman burst into
tears. She and her husband embraced
and went out Of court rejoicing.
'Therew said Lazarus. IF you come
back I'll give you six months each."-

Sheep Company for Depredations.
Sioux Falls, S. D., July 6.-The case
against nine prominent cattle men OF
the Sundance district, who were
charged with destroying property be-
longing to the Rodney King Sheep
company and the Guthrie Sheep COM
pany, after having been pending for
some weeks. has been dismissed as the
result of an agreement by which the
defendants paid all costs and expenses
In connection with the prosecution and
for the property destroyed, In addition
to agreeing not to further modest sheep
on the Crook county range.
1t is estimated that the little esca-
pade of the nine cattle men cost them
the aggregate sum of $4,000, and I'M
der the circumstances they doubtless
consider themselves fortunate to have
escaped upon payment of this sum.
Two of the cattle men had made con-
fessions of the operations of the Sc
cret organization, of which there were
fifty members.

CANINE MARATHON RACE.
Novel Feature Of oueensboro Bridge
Carnival at New York.

Novel Feature Of oueensboro Bridge
Carnival at New York.
One Of the novel features of the
greensboro bridge carnival In New
York during the week Of June 1910
will be a canine Marathon race. This
is the first time that this will be tried
and will be open to trained dogs only.
The affair will be under the direction
Of Phile G. Andersen, the well known
dog fancier Of Union Course, N. Y.
The race win be from the Manhattan
end Of the greensboro bridge to some
point on the Hoffman boulevard near
Glendale, N. Y. The lists are open to
field dogs and bounds. There Will be
several contests for trained dogs.
There viii be also race for the BOBBY
prize by dogs not thoroughly trained.
The dogs will have blankets with
numbers 80 that they can be distin-
guished In the race. At first the com.
mittee was doubtful about the posi-
bility Of carrying on such race, but
several experts on dogs have satisfied
1t that the thing can be accomplished
In speaking Of the matter Mr.. Ander-
sen said:
Dogs can be trained to race as well
as horses. and more so, because they
do not need any jockeying. Some Of
the most exciting coursing events Of
this kind have been held right on Long
Island, and at one time good deal Of
money has been put up on the contest
ants. 1t will be great sports to see
from 100 to $50 dogs go streaking
across the big bridge.
1.-The races can be made more excit-
Ing by interspersing them with hurdle
and other Instructions. To see these
dogs leaping fences and ropes would
add to the excitement and novelty Of
the affair. This race will interest the
owners of all thoroughbreds and espe-
cially the owners of field dogs.
~ have sent notices to about $50
owners, and all Of them have signifled
their willingness to enter the races. 1t
will be q question of selection. Each
race should be limited to about fifty
dogs at the maximum. If there are
more than that number the dogs are
apt to run in packs and that would
spoil the race. Owners Of dogs as far
west as Los Angeles have signified
their intention Of entering their ami.

Captain Byram's cavalry, with few
scouts and constabulary and detach-
ment Of sailors under Lieutenant COM
mander Signor, located and attacked
the outlaws in the mountains not far
from the coast. The Moros fed and
took refuge in large cave. The COL
umn of troops and sailors surrounded
the place, but Jikiri refused to surren-
der. A concerted attack was made,
the Moros fighting desperately in the
mouth Of cave until the last member
Of the band was dead.
Americans Wounded by Explosion?
AS yet few details of the fight have
been received at the headquarters Of
the army. The large number OF
wounded among the troops is account
ed for on the theory that the cave was
mined and the Americans were wound
ed by the explosion.
In his brief report Captain Byram
warmly commends Lieutenant Miller
for bravery and gallantry in action.
Captain Byram gave no details as to-
the condition of the wounded.
