That boy Gilbert at Peoria is given
a lot of credit for pitching no hit
game against Dubuque yesterday, but
it wasn't equal to Billy Meals perform
ance against Cedar Rapids Saturday
by several degrees. Gilbert hit a man
and passed two, while Neal did not
commit either offense. The one hit
that was marked up against the Is
hnders was on a close decision by
the official scorer. who might have
given Berger an error. and by the UNI
pire, who might have called the runner
out at first without any serious
grounds for kick by Cedar Rapids.

Stricken Regions as Seen One
Week Later.
Rome, By Cable.-A violent earth
shock running north-southwest and
east-northeast, lasting three seconds,
Sunday and during which the Strom-
boi volcano began eruption, occurred
In Stromboi island Sunday.
The phenomenon was accompanied
by prolonged dull rumblings. The
houses on the island we're badly dam
aged and the populace fled to the
streets in panic, but no one was hurt.
The weather is intensely cold on
Stromboli island.
The system of rescue work in
Messina has been greatly augmented
by the arrival Of troops, who are to
be seen all over the ruined city in
squads of twenty and thirty, pat
rolling day and night. Bodies of
them also are working in the ruins by
day and until we'll into the night.
The movement of refugees fr1---
the villages IS daily increasing in
volume. OF the victims buried under
the ruins few have been rescued
| alive.
It is now clear that the enormous
number of casualties in Messina was
due to the suddenness with which the
first shock came, giving but little
time to the people to escape from
their homes. The tidal wave was not
SO high as was at first reported, and
would have done little damage had it
not been preceded by the earthquake.
The damage done by fire was com
paratively insignificant.
The first earth shock last Monday
morning literally threw down the city
and almost every street was
completely buried under the walls
that had fallen, furniture and other
debris, practically cutting off every
avenue of escape.
Then came the tidal wave to in,
un1ate the city and the living and
dying were caught like rats and
drowned or had their brains dashed
out by being thrown by the rushing
waters against piles Of masonry an;
rubbish.
] Far greater havoc was wrought il
Messina than was believed when tn.

Swindled BY Clairvoyant.

BUTTE, March 6.-"Professor" H.
j. Kellogg has been captured at
Ogden, together with his three trunks.
and Observation-Disclosures Murray left at
2 O'Clock this morning to bring the
much wanted "clairvoyant'. back to
this city for prosecution on a charge
of obtaining several thousand dollars
under false pretenses. Duncan Tru.
man. n victim alleges he lost 81, 500.
just a. soon rs Kellogg was known
to have disappeared yesterda y the
number of alleged victims began to
make their grievances known to the
authorities, and it is likely that by
the time he reaches Butte again there
will be several complaints filed against
him.
1t appears from the general reports
that Kellogg must have had quite a
good from certain mine pro-
moters about the city, as we'll as from
the innocent and gullible who sought
his advice on various other matters.
It is alleged that Kellogg and certain
mining men, we'll known in the bust.
ness circles of this city, had an I'M.
Outstanding or arrangement OF some
sort whereby the alleged clairvoy ant
would advice all those calling on him,
and who had money to invest, to buy
certain shares of stock, p%rophesylng
big dividends in the near future; and
declaring that he could see in the
property he would name hundreds
of thousands of dollars for the people
who would Immediately invest their
money. The names of the mining
promoters are in the possession of the
detectives. Kellogg is alleged to have
cleared up $40, 600 in Butte.

Honey Business is a Success.

BOHEMIAN, March 6.-Along with its
many other valuable resources, Gal.
latin county is To- fast coming to the
front in the business of bee raising.
AS q result of the increased interest
in this business a beekeepers supply
house will soon be opened at Belgrade
to furnish materials to the beekeepers
throughout the county. The extent of
this business here was not known until
investig atoms were made by Belgrade
men to ascertain the practicability of
starting the supply house. 1t was
found recently that a large number of
farmers have become interested in the
business and that in the vicinity of
Belgrade there are over 30 beekeepers
with numerous large swarms.
There are numbers of keepers
throughout the county who have
smaller warns and up to this time
have only attempted to produce sufi-
cient honey to supply their own needs.
