BUFFALO COMMIT SUICIDE.
Evidence Tends to Show This to Be The
Case in Many Instances.

Evidence Tends to Show This to Be The
Case in Many Instances.
Recent Investigation has shown that
the rapid determination of the Buffalo,
which once was so plentiful on the
western plains, is due to natural
causes and that the inroad of civiliza.
tion and the big hunters did not have
all to do with putting to rout the kings
of the plains.
Mr.. F. Casey is in possession Of
evidence that shows that the thinning
out of the buffalo herds is due to the
"buffalo ball." lump of hair which
the buffalo accumulates in the stomach
from licking his hide during the she'd
ding season.
This indigestable matter forms q
hard ball in the stomach and eventu-
ally becomes so large that the animal
dies. "Thus," said the Investigator,
the buffalo commits suicide by eating
his own oyeroont,"

For Locals Downfall---Crawford

The Rapid crowd got that much
talked of revenge last Sunday in a
game that was certainly disheartening
to local base ball bugs. Not that Hot
Springs is expected to win every game
but the article of listless ball displayed
was uninteresting and really uncalled
for.
The first Rapid man up was thrown
out at first on slow grounder, the
second man up knocked two -bagger
only to be annihilated at third by a
quick throw from Catcher Hinson.
With two down Farley failed to con-
nect and the Springs went to bat.
Holden confidently whanged to CEN

nailed him at second. A safe hit took

put an end to Rapids effort for more

Rex struck out, Farley got hit and

get the third out.
The Rapid boys failed to get any runs
in the fourth and fifth but the locals
punched their hits and scored Holden.
which was the only run they made.
Then the pitcher from the School of
Mines let loose everything he had and
shut the home guards out.
Rapid failed to score in sixth but the
seventh saw three runs tabled to their
credit with two more in the eighth. No
more scoring was done and the game
closed to l, in favor of the visitors.
Rapid has fast team. They are q
gentlemanly crowd of ball players and
they can come back and see friendly

Notes of the Game.
Holden's running shoe string catch
brought the fans out of their trance
for q while.
Daily had an awful bad Sunday.
Hot weather, poor throwing and an
off day made our champs little slow.

the outfield will be running more
smoothly.

My dear Friends:
What are your school plans for next

vanced standing in college, or for

the advantages offered by the State

Here are few of them:
l. The buildings and equipment
cost about sl75,OOO. Many similar in
stitntions have a greater investment,
but these buildings are extremely we'll
planned and we'll kept. It is not easy
to find anywhere rooms so bright and
homelike, and SO we'll adapted to their
purpose.
2. We have about thirty teachers,
all experts. Several of them are
graduates of our great normal schools.
and most of them have advanced de.
grees in some Of our best universities.
They know how to teach. Their
hearts are in the work.

the radiant energy in the form of heat

flowing by gravity at uniform rate
during each test, and the quantity col

minutes, thermometers graduated to

The accuracy is very great, practically
all of the heat received being collected
in the water, and so sensitive is the
instrument that on adding two-inch

Drive Team Into Lake and Are
Drowned.

DTlvC cam lIlIO Lake anu <AES
Drowned.
Mrs. Peter A. Anderson and daugh-
ter Laura, aged eleven, were drowned
in Grindstone lake near Sandstone.
Mrs. Anderson and daughter started
for Groningen, a few miles from the
lake, near which they resided, with a
horse and buggy to meet some friends
at the station.
There was no witness to the drown
ing, but it is supposed that they drove
the horses to the lakeside for water
and drove too far from the shore, or
the horses became unmanageable and
overturned the rig, throwing the occu-
pants into the water The two were
not missed until several hours after
the accident, when a search was made
for them and the horses and buggy
were found on the lake shore. The
body of the mother was found in shall
low water, near the shore, while the
body of the daughter was found some
distance out
