SENATOR BAILEY IN FIST FIGHT.
Texas Statesman and a Correspond
emit Have Mix-Up at Capitol

Senator Joseph w. Bailey of Texas
and W. Sinker Manning, Washington
correspondent Of the New York Times,
had a fist fight in the Senate corridor
Thursday afternoon. Bailey used
Manning's umbrella to wallop the
scribe. Neither antagonist suffered
any serious injury. The only damage
was to the>umbrella.
The clash grew out Of an article in
the Times under a Washington date
line which said that Senator Aldrich,
Republican leader in the tariff debate,
had a number Of followers among
Democrats who ma faithfully be set
down under the classification of Al.
drich mem" and that they are head
ed Dv that distinguished SON of Texas,
Joseph Weldon Bailey" Bailey read
this story on the floor OF the. Senate
and then denied the allegations. In
making his denial he launched into a
denunciation of newspapers in general
and of the Times correspondent in
particular, whom he specifically called
a liar, a whelp and a coward. When
Manning later met Bailey and started
to explain that he did not write the
article the mix-up came.

Trying to Get First Chance at the Ter
ritory West Of Forest City.

Reports from the country west of
Forest City, indicate that the different
railroads working out into the reser-
walton country are keeping a close
watch of the movement of one an
other. and are all playing for position
which will give them a cad over any
OF the others. The Milwaukee survey
ors are said to be running a line west
In long loops to the north and south
to take in as much as possible, and
attempt to hold 1T for themselves
against any other line. The Minnea-
polls and st. Louis surveyors are work
ing north from Leslie, all Of them
leading into the section of the state
about or just south Of Thunder Butte.
If the lines now being surveyed into
that part of the state are to become
operating lines within the next two
years, that portion of South Dakota
which yet shows a blank surface on
railroad maps, will present quite a
different appearance by the time the
next maps are put into circulation.

seriously injured. A bolt of lightning
struck her home near the room in
which she was working. completely
scattering that portion OF the building,
tearing off half the plaster from the
ceiling and breaking every window

girl received the bolt of lightning, or
a part of it, directly In the face. After
severely burning the upper portion the
current passed down the side OF her
face to her arm and breast. When
found she was in a critical condition.
"A curious feature Of her injury is that
while her eyesight does not seem to
have been destroyed she is unable to
bear any light and has to be kept in

months-old baby.
