LIVE STOCK DIES
uANY MULES ARE PRosTRATED BY THE HEAT.
Lees sn Pensacola 10 Estimated Al sl0.O00--ouick Despatch of . Steamer From
 Mexico.

Pensacola, Fla. Aug. s--(Special)-- Ten thousand dollars is the estimated cost of the hot weather in this city from the loss of dray mules alone.
 During the past two days every wholcsale firm in the city has lost mules by death while in harness, while the city stock has also suffered. one or two teams dying and others being sent out to rest.
 Yesterday was the worst day on stock to be experienced. no less than seven teams dropping in their tracks in various portions of the city. This morning two or three died from the heat.
 4 The police are making careful inves- tigation to ascertain if the death of the uiules was caused by cruelty or neglect on the part of the drivers. but 1t is not believed that such has been the case.
 The heat was greater than was anti eipated, and teams. which had for merly easily carried much heavier loads, dropped after a few hours work with ordinary loads.
 So far there has been only one man to suffsr prostration. he being F. M. Smith. a carpenter.
 Wharf laborers who started to work this morning could not stand the in- tense heat. and many stopped work. On one wharf a gang of fifty men started. but when noon arrived only twelve were left.

Tee Cream Contest.

The champion ice cream eaters of the country reside at Fort Barrancas in Amos Musel. an artilleryman, and Frank Koseia, a musician. both at. tached to the artillery service.
 At an ice cream eating contest al Warrington, near the fort last night, each ate forty-three plates of ice cream, and the contest was called on for the reason that the two had eaten up two full freezers. Both had hereto fore shown remarkable appetites for cream and had easily made away with q dozen dishes. so the contest was ar- ranged. When the last dish was dis. posed of each man declared that he could easily make away with dozer or more dishes.
 Another contest is to be arranged fog next week.

distant thunder had ceased, and at
midnight the valley near the bridge
lay in stiffness broken only by the
hoarse calls of the patrols and far-off
megaphones. From the bridge camp,

who had fought the Spider Water

bering, awkward as bear and as
shifty, was talking, because with no
apparent effort he could talk all night,
and was valuable man at keeping

On the goth of June McCloud did
have something of an army of men in
the Crawling Stone valley. OF these,
ESQ were in the vicinity of the bridge,
the abutments and piers of which
were being put in Just below the Dun
ming ranch. Near at hand Bill Dan
cling, with big gang, had been for
hitting the jams. McCloud brought in
more men as the river continued to
rise. The danger line on the gauges
was at length submerged, and for
three. days the mainline construction
camps had been robbed OF men to
guard the soft grades above and be-
low the bridge. The new track up
and down the valley had become a
highway of escape from the flood, and
the track patrols we're met at every
curve by cattle. horses. deer, wolves
and coyotes fleeing from the waste
of waters.
Through the Dunning ranch the

bend across the valley to the north
and east. The extraordinary volume
of water now pouring through the Box
canyon exposed 10000 acres OF the
ranch to the caprice of the river. and
If at the point OF its tremendous sweep
to the north. it should cut back into its
old channel the change would wipe
the entire body of ranch alfalfa lands
off the face Of the valley. With the
heat OF the lengthening June days a
vast steam rose from the chill waters
of the river. marking in ominous wind
ings the channel Of the main stream
through q yellow sea which, ignoring
the usual landmarks of trees and
dunes, fanked the current broadly on
either side. Late in the afternoon of
the day that Dicksie with Marion
sought McCloud, storm drifted down
the Topaz Topaz hills, and heavy
showers broke across the valley.
At .nightfall the rain had passed and
the mist lifted from the river. Above

that the trained riders of the big
ranch were taken completely aback,

It is estimated by several in
Meadville that the trials Of DR..
Newman and those of the boys
which are yet to come, in the end
will have cost Franklin county
something like $20, 900. The trial

Franklin county ever handled. It

In addition to the criminal cases,
Dr.. Newman had also been in the
courts frequently in connection
with the settlement Of civil cases,
appearing in many instances as the
plaintiff and often as the defendant.
DR.. Newman was fifty years old
and q native of jefferson county.
While he owned considerable prop
erty in and about MeadvilIe, he
was not considered wealthy, as
during the last few years he had
spent considerable money in politics
and in the courts. Five attorneys

the last trial and it is estimated
by some that legal services in this
case alone cost h1rn between So. 600
