At the time it occurred there were but two eye witnesses. They state that with out any warning other than the rush ing of water, the mud and water was thrown into the air to 2 height of seven or eight feet, and this con- -tinued for several minutes. Since then there has been a slight bubbling of much of the time. This last upheav- al threw up a large body of what was at first thought to be mud, to the sur face of the water. but. as it appar- ently floated on the surface, there was much curiosity as to what it really was. At considerable risk men went out and procured specimens of the deposit, and it was found to re- semble Gas one man explained iO soft coal which had been burned It readily breaks apart and is so light that it will float on water.

The steer was butchered sometime

discovery of the animals head In a

In order to surround their acts with
an impenetrable casing of secrecy,
these men exercised considerable in

crime-even to burying the hide and
concealing the meat They failed.

animal AS they perhaps were not

to the peculiar markings of it's face
and the shape of its horns, they no
doubt considered it a trivial thing to
dispose of the head in this manner

a crime or fabricate a series of events

Will APPEAL
TO WASHINGTON
FARMERS TO MEET IN WILLIS.
TON TO CONSIDER IRRIGA-
CATION PAYMENTS.

Williston, N. D., Nov. 26.-Every
phase of the irrigation problem as it
appears from the viewpoint of the
landowners under the government
project known as the Williston pro-
ject, will be considered at meeting to
be held in this city tomorrow.
Poor crops are responsible for the
movement for the relief of land own
ers. Many of them are unable to
make their water payments, and to
shut off their supply would place them
in position where they would be
unable to realize anything from their
holdings next year.
Thi feature of the question will be
put up to the authorities at Washing
ton in the hope that it will influence
them in ruling that the payments can
be suspended for year.
