as the camp Of over one hundred
men was completely out OF provis-
ions. Notwithstanding the thaw

people SO unawares. Although the
danger had been spoken Of by some
who lived there. It was not realized
until too late and until all was over.
1T Is simply miraculous that we
were not all killed, as the slide
came and took the houses around

did not injure our house in any man

At Mace all OF the buildings
around the school house were demol-
ished. but the school building was
not hurt in any way. II Is marvellous
that the slide did not take every
building in both places.
One reason for the slight damage
at Burke is due to the fact that the
slide did not come from the top OF
the mountain. but rather from a
shoulder which extended out. and had

that every person there would have

EXPERTS FIX
VALUE OF HAY
TELL WHAT ST. JOE PRODUCT IL
WORTH WHEN CONVERTED
INTO BEEF.
Government Scores Point by RebnttaI
Witnesses.

In the overflow case the govern
ment offered In evidence samples OF
grasses grown on the low lands and
the intermediate lands along the st.
Joe river upon which the hay fed to
cattle mentioned In the testimony
given the last week, was fed.
M. H. Daggett, a former carpenter
OF st. Maries, testified to cutting low
land hay and feeding 1t to his cattle
and horses during the winter OF
1892. Had observed character OF
hay by feeding it twice a day all
winter, and that the cattle thus fed
came through the winter In good
condition, neither shaking fat nor
skeletons. Cut It's tons OF low land
hay in 1892 and also in 1898, and
fed some to cattle. In 1892 baled
and sold all timothy raised on his
ranch.
The government, taking Expert
Gardeners testimony as a basis that
cattle could be carried through the
winter on this low land hay In prac-
tically the same condition that they
enter the winter, placed Butcher
Dwarf of Harrison on the stand and
showed that beef is worth from
cent to / 1-2 cents more per pound
in the spring than in the fall, and
further that from 2 to per cent
more beef is obtained from hay fed
cattle in the spring than grass fed
cattle in the fall. From this the de-
duction is that "a steer entering the
feeding season weighing 1000
pounds and coming out of the winter
with the same weight after eating
liz tons of hay is worth $40 to
SIS more, thus fixing the value of
the low land hay at 81 to $40 per
ton. On this basis each acre produc-
ing from one to one and half tons
of hay Axes its value at $40 to 500.
The witness testified that the in
termediate land hay consists of
blue joint and other grasses is better
than low land hay for cattle. Hay on
the St. Joe has sold from IS to SIS
per ton for the past 1S years.
Frank Scott, farmer stock rails
err for the past 90 years on the st.
Joe, stated that he had fed the low
land hay to his cattle each year,
ranging from to $50 head, for the
past ID years, and that they did well
on 1t.
Peter Smith, assistant bridge ten
der at ChateoIet, cut wild hay on
low lands near Chatcolet and fed to
his cattle-a mich COW and year
Iing-during 1867. Assisted in
ferrying the Con cattle across river
ct Chatcolet. Saw them feed all
summer and fall on meadow near o.
r. & N. trestle. There were 1.4OO
head of these cattle. Cattle had no
shelter during winter but were fed
some bran. Cut a narrow runway
through river bank for cattle TO
drink. Witness saw % or 80 head
Of dead cattle floating in the river,
pulled some out and skinned them.
Found Cons mark on them. Some
Of these cattle were killed by the
railroad ten at one time.

SPORTING NOTES.

In Brooklyn they are clamoring for a return of Phil Lewis, who was switch ed from the Superbas to Baltimore last year. It is held that Lewis is a much better shortstop than any man Brook lyn has produced since he left.
 Thespian, 2.1S If, will not be one of Tommy Murphy's stake candidates next spring. The son of Direct Hal and Anvil Chorus did not remain in the Murphy family lone, and if he gets to the races it will be on the half mile tracks.
 It has often been said that one of the leading points about horse racing is the sentiment that is attached to the sport When in 1885 Maud S. trotted a mile in POS 3-4 which at that time was the fastest mile ever trotted, and which still stands ass a record made to high wheels, large shoe was hung over the entrance to Glenville track at Cleveland marking that memorable event. When the old track was dis mantled the shoe was carefully taken down, but not destroyed. Instead it was given to Mrs. Edwards as a token of appreciation, it was Colonel Ed wards suggestion that the shoe be placed over the gate.
