WHEN TIE COWS COME NOME.

Il love the beautiful evening
When the sunset clouds are gold;
When the barn fowls seek a shelter
And the young lambs seektheir fold
When the four-o' clocks are open,
And the swallows homeward come;
when the horses cease thir labors,
And the cows come home.
When the supper's almost ready,
And Johnny is asleep,
And / beside the cradle
My pleasant vigil keep;
Sitting beside the window
Watching for pa to come,
While the soft bells gently tinkle
AS the cows come home.
When the sunset and the twilight
In mingling hues are blent,
/ can sit and watch the shadows
With my full heart all content;
And wish for nothing brighter.
And long no more to roam
When the twilight's peace comes Ger
me,
And the COWS come home.
/ see their shadows lengthen
As they slowly cross the field,
And know the food is wholesome
Which their generous udders yield,
More than the tropics fruitage.
Than marble hall or dome,
Are the blessings that surround me
Whan the cows come home.

REPORT 22 BODIES FOUND
ON BITTER ROOT CREEK
Detachment of Negro Soldiers
Convey Dead to Avery

SPOKANE, Aug. pa special to the
Spokesman-Review from Tekoa, Wash,
says:
A Milwaukee freight train which left
Avery, Idaho, at II o'clock this morn
ing and arrived here tonight brought
news that twenty-five bodies were
found this morning on Bitter Root
creek, six miles south of Avery.
Sixteen of the bodies were lying close
together. The other six were in the
creek, with the hands covring the faces.
A detachment of negro soldiers of the
Twenty-fifth infantry found the bodies
and conveyed them to Avery.
Thirty unidentified bodies were bur
led at Avery today. Only four of the
large number of persons killed near
Avery have been identified and these
four were settlers in the neighborhood.
One hundred and six men in the st.
Joe valley are unaccounted for. The
searching parties that bring in bodies
find many with their faces in the creek,
while others are lying with their arms
covering their eyes. All unidentified
bodies are buried as soon as they are
brought here.
Elbert Dow of Seattle, who had been
in and near Avery since Saturday. says
he passed through the San Francisco
earthquake, and the horror of his four
DAYS in the st. Joe valley fire makes
his former experience seem trivial.

TRINITY COUNTY FIRE
DESTROYS FINE TIMBER
ConfIagration Shows Five and a
Half Miles Front

REDDING, Cal, Aug. 24.-The for
est fire near Minerville, Trinity coun-
ty, has a front of five and half miles
and has burned its way into a belt of
fine timber. Every able bodied man
in Lewiston has been drafted to aid
the forest rangers in fighting the
flames. Most of the fire fighters have
been on duty forty-eight hours with
out q rest.
This is the most alarming of several
fires In Trinity county.
1t is on government and railroad
land between the Trinity river and
Stuart's Fork, only one mile from
Minerville.
Since it broke out two weeks ago it
has got beyond control three times.
In southeastern Trinity, Mount Bee
Gum is afire on two sides and rangers
from Lassen county are helping to
save the timber. The fire near Weav-
erville was under control last night.
but a force of miners, wood choppers
and rangers is kept on guard to pre-
vent fresh outbreak.
Another big fire Is raging on New
river, in the northeastern part of Trim
ity county, where Forest Supervisor
Haffley is in charge of the fire brigade,
This country is sparsely settled, and 1t
is difficult to obtain enough men to
fight the fires.

lace, 3; Placer creek, 6; Setter creek,
Avery pricinct, 20; st. Joe, 1.
In addition, the supervisor has re-
ceived a telegram from ranger To-
night, reporting fifteen dead at Big
creek, but this is thought to refer to
the disaster already recorded.
The fighters at Bird creek, for whom
fears were entertained, reported safe-
ly this evening to the supervisor, and
Ranger Rocks party on the nortn
fork of the st. Joe river, have lost
but one man.
Nothing official has yet been re-
ceived from Clearwater or the head of
the St Joe, where Weigle has 1876 men
who became separated from Deputy
Supervisor Roscoe Paine.
Weigle reports two new fires, one
on Grizzly creek a tributary OF the
north fork of the st. Joe; the other on
the north fork and burned down to-
ward Pritchard creek. FORCES are be-
ing sent out to fight these fires. EN-
ployes of Hercules and Hecla mines
at Burke have saved the great plants
of those properties, and 200 men are
guarding the fumes, carrying the
towns water supply Another
force of miners from Burke was sent
out this morning to stop a fire which
crossed the mountain and was burning
down toward Gem.
The official estimates OF the destruc-
tion of timber says that 10 per cent
of the Occur d Alene forest reserve
is destroyed This is considered con-
servative, and with the other timber
burned the total loss from this source
cannot be less than $20,000,000. The
damage to mine buildings probably
will not exceed $250,000.

SMOKE BLANKET 5000 FEET
THICK is OVER COLORADO
Sun Shows Through a Pale Pink
at Denver

DENVER. Aug. 24.-Shutting out
the sunshine, a blanket of smoke 5000
feet thick, drifted over Colorado today,
coming from the forest fires 800 miles
away.
The entire northwest part of the state
is covered by the pail, which is drift
ing southeast at the rate of 40 miles
an hour. Through 1t at 3 p. m. the sun
shone pale pink.
The plains are enshrouded. and for so
miles up the narrow canyon 1t Is I'M
possible to see from wall to wall.
At Denver, approximately a mile
above sea level, the smoke appears
as a thin fog, but increases in density
until at 5000 and 1000 feet attitudes
among the mountains it is impenetrable
for any distance.
Hollands, 1888 feet high, Is above the
smoke bank, and the sun shone bright
ly there all day. Other points above
$500 feet also escaped.

MONTANA FIRE SITUATION
MUCH MORE ENCOURAGING
Number of Known Dead in State
Reduced to Nine

MISSOULA, Mont, Aug. 24.-Todays
developments in the forest fire situa-
tion in Montana have been of an en-
couraging nature. For the first time
in several days the sun shone through
the pail of smoke that has hung over
the city, in keeping with the hopeful
reports that came in from all direc-
tions. Men hitherto reported as miss
ing are being found. The intensity of
the flames, though not altogether sub
dued by the snow and rain storm OF
last night, is. greatly reduced and all
towns in the fire swept districts are
out of danger.
From out of the mass of sensational
reports sent out early in the week there
are only nine authenticated cases of
death in Montana. These included
eight miners at the Bullion mine near
Borax, and one death at Taft.
A few are still included among the
missing, but the list of these is grad
ually diminishing as communication
is being restored. The day also brought
a denial of report that a Chicago,
Milwaukee & Puget Sound train was
hemmed in by fire in northern Idaho.
With assurance that the storm of
last night had materially lessened the
danger, scores Of refugees started to-
day from this city to return to their
deserted homes along the Occur d'Alene
line of the Northern Pacific railway
Those returning homeward were prin-
cipally people living between Saltese
and Iron Mountain. Some of them
have lost their homes, while others who
never expected to see theirs again will
find them undamaged. The refugees
are being carried to their homes by
the Northern Pacific free of charge.
COMMUNICATION RESTORED
Telegraphlc and telephone communi-
cation Is being re-established and the
railroads are forwarding relief and re-
pair supplies for the restoration of
their lines The local forestry officials
received word today from the Kootenai
national forest to the effect that con-
ditions were improved and that the
towns of Libby and Terry were in
safety.
All settlers have been brought In
from dangerous localities and no loss
of life Is expected. One hundred and
fifty men are holding the fire at Troy
and a force of 200 are engaged at Libby.
Everything possible is being done
with the 500 men in that field to get
the fires under control No further
help is needed there at present.
From Priest river, Idaho, Supervisor
Miller has requested more aid. Dis
trict Forester Greely advised him that
troops were not available and instruct
ed him to secure laborers at Spokane.
Supervisor Miller reported that 40
miles of the south and west boundary
of the forest is on fire. The fire is
burning north and west of Priest lake.
The check to the fires by last nights
storm is giving the forestry depart
ment an opportunity to reorganize its
fighting force and attention is now be-
ing directed to the mobilizing of crews
for relief work.

FIFTY AGENTS ARE SENT
FROM OGDEN TO MISS0ULA
Hospital Pack Train to Be Dis
patched by Army

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-Fifty for
est agents from the staff of District
Forester Sherman at Ogden, Utah,
have been ordered by the forest SER
vice rere to proceed at once to Mis-
soula, Mont, to aid in experimenting
the fighting of the flames in that dis
trict.
These men, who are trained in the
work Of battling with forest fires, will
be put into service directing the work
of the fire fighting crews and assisting
the troops and the militia. AS there
is no cause for alarm from fires in
Utah the officials of the forest service
thought these men could be spared for
duty in Mssoula.
The only report which reached the
forest service early today OF the situa-
tion in the northwest was from District
Forester Greedy at Missoula. He urged
on the bureau the need of more assist

GEN. WOOD is OPPOSED TO
ARMY PATROLLING FORESTS
Makes Report to President Sug-
gesting Dry Weather Guards

SPOKANE, Aug. 24.-The use of
United States soldiers to protect from
fire the national forests during the
dry months is wholly impracticable,
according to Major General Leonard
Wood, chief of staff Of the United
States army, who has just written
letter disappearing of the suggestion
of the northwestern LUMBER men,
Most of the lumber men are now en-
deavoring to save their trees from
fires which they allege originated in
tn, inadeuuately protected national
forests. Steps are being taken to nave
the guarding of the national forests
discussed at the national conserVa-
ton meeting in ST. Paul next month.
1t is purposed to organize the entlre
lumber industry of the Pacific coast
in a campaign to obtain adequate po-
Icing of the national forests ana 10
prevent repetitinon of the fires that
are now sweeping over Idaho and
Montana.
The Western Pine Manufacturers
association at meeting held in Spo-
kane early in August passed reso-
luton asking for the assignment or
federal troops for forest patrol duty
in the dry months. The resolution
was sent to President Taft, who re-
ferred 1t to General Wood. The latter,
under QaL6 OF August ~ oeAt q AOt
ter to the president in which he said:
WOODS REPORT
II have the honor to inform you that
the commanding general department
Of the Columbia, Vancouver barracks,
Wash, and the commanding general,
department of Dakota at st. Paul,
have already been directed to place
certain organizations from posts in
their departments in the field for duty
in cooperation with the forest SER
vice and with officials in the interior
department in extinguishing the for
est fires.
I'm this connection 1t is deemed
proper to state that the suggested use
of troops from May until october Of
each year for the purpose set forth
in the resolution of the Western Pine
Manufacturers association is wholly
impracticable."
In a statement issued today Secre-
tary A. w. Cooper Of the Pine Manu-
facturers' association takes issue with
General Wood. He asserts that the
work in the woods would be wholly
beneficial, and better for the men
than holding them in comparative idle
ness at military posts. He points to
the fine work now being done by the
soldiers in the burning forests as
proof that the proposal of the lum-
bermen is not impracticable.
