RAILROADS LOOKING FOR
RECORD SHIPMENTS

Assistant Division Superintendent
Leppla of the Northwestern, who was
up from Chadron yesterday, believ-
es that this will be record year in
the way of cattle and sheep shipments
from this section of the country.
This condition is of course due to
the drought, which is depriving the
stockmen of putting up winter sup
ply of feed and forcing them to ship
as closely as possible. Along the
Casper division Of the Northwestern
conditions are particularly distress
ing, the country being practically
burned up.
In the Belle Fourche country
where the feed situation is also bad
there will be unprecedented shipping
both of cattle and sheep. The North
western expects to get its full share
of the shipping from that point, al
though their business has been out
into into some extent since the COM
ing of the Milwaukee road. The
latter offers better facilities for ship
ment to Sioux City and equally as
good as the Northwestern to Chi
cago, but the Northwestern has the
competing road at great disadvan-
tage in getting stock into South Om-
aha,

DESTRUCTIVE STORMS
THROUGH COLORADO.

DENVER, Col, July 30.-Six
dead, property damage running in
to the thousands and railroads prac
tically out of business was the situ-
alton today, resulting from yester-
days storm in Colorado and north
ern New Mexico. Three members
of the family of H. o. Snyder, in
cluding the father a five year old
son and Snyder's mother, living 20
miles southeast of Pueblo, were
drowned when the flood came down
the arroyo and carried their house
away. Three were drowned at CAL

though not to so great an extent. In
the vicinity of Bune Vista, cloud
burst caused damage estimated at
half a million dollars.

JACK HETRICK MEETS
A TRAGIC DEATH.

Jack B. Hetrick, head sawyer at
the saw mill of the Addie mine near
Hill City, was killed Thursday af-
ternoon by falling upon a circular
saw. His left arm was severed at
the elbow and his left leg was saw
ed off from the body through the
groin. Hetrick died about four
hours after the accident.
The saw was not running to Het-
rick's satisfaction and he stepped
back of the log carriage to make an
examination. His hand was on the
leved and other employees shouted to
him to stop the carriage although
apparently he did not hear them for
the log on the carriage struck him,
knocking him broadside on to the
saw. AS soon as the machinery could
be stopped Hetrick was removed
from the saw and two men held the
severed arteries together while an
other ran to Hill City and summon
ed DR.. Gilbert and DR.. Jackson of
Rapid City. They left in ]. Howard
Radcliff's big touring car with Trea-
surer Flavin. Hetrick, however
was beyond medical aid, when the
physicians arrived and died. He
leaves a widow and two children.

their rights. Sitting Bull and his
warriors were removed to other ter
ritory and the cavalry forces with
drawn. The trail of the mountain
sheep and the path of the Indian
region thrown open to white settle
we're widened into wagon roads, the
ment, and the way opened for the
building of the North Western Line,
the pioneer railway into the Hills.
There must be pioneer railways as
well as pioneer explorers, and as
soon as the development of the region
justified, the North Western Line
pushed into the heart of the Hills,
reaching them in 1885 and complet-
ing the line to Rapid City in 1886,
and to Deadwood and Hot Springs in
1890. Thus was the entire region
made readily accessible to the travel
er from Omaha, Council Bluffs,
Sioux City and Chicago, st. Paul and
Minneapolis, st. Louis and Kansas
City, and railway trains traversed
the gulches where Sitting Bulls
braves had camped and where scouts
and prospectors had made their cour-
ageous way in the days gone by.
This pioneer line of railway has
developed steadily until now it is one
of the great arteries of western
travel. A new line has also been
added to the North Westerns direct
connection with the Hills, extending
from Rapid City across Dakota,
crossing the Missouri at Pierre and
forming a direct route to st. Paul,
Minneapolis and Duluth, and to Chi
Cago and Milwaukee.

up with his arm around you. Be-
cause it is summer doesn't alter the
fact of his being man or you wo-
man, OF of any of the relationships of
life, nor make it one whit less vulgar
and dangerous.
Because 1t is summer, don't be sill
ly enough to let the idiot with the
camera snapshot you in an affection
ate attitude with some young man.
1t may seem awfully funny at the
time, and be perfectly innocent, but
Just reflect how that picture will look
on some young mans wall next win
ter 1t won't appeal to your sense of
humor then. 1t will rouse bitter
shame in you.
Because it is summer don't be sill
ly enough to get into Irritation with
some good looking man that you
meet on the train or boat. He may
be all right, and again he may not,
but at any rate you will have cheap
ened yourself in his eyes. Just re-

You don't hold the office of public

Also Mrs. Married Woman, don't
be silly enough to go off and spend
three or four months in the summer
placidly enjoying yourself under the
impression that your husband is sit

hand and counting the days until you
come back. He isn't employed in
that manner. Far from it. When
the cat is away the mice will play,
and if there is one time in the world
that it is expedient for a wife to look
after her fences it is in the good old
summer time.
Go away and have little change
and give your husband a rest from
your society, but don't stay too long.
That is, if you don't want to find a
husband whose affections have been
purloined in your absence.

VERY FEW ARE PULLING OUT.

II. r. Cooper of Whitewood, who
returned yesterday from trip thru
the country lying to the north and
east of Belle Fourche and the
eastern part of Meade county, de-
clares that the reports to the effect
that large numbers of the new-com-
ers are abandoning their places and
pulling out on account of the drought
are greatly exaggerated and in most
cases without founda ion. In fact he
found very few of them who are even
| contemplating leaving. The stories
of their prospective destitution
have also been greatly overdrawn. 1t
| is true that numbers will have to
get through the winter by exercising
the most rigid economy, but they
realize that this is an exceptional
year, such as may strike any part of
the country and they believe that
next year and many years there
after, will see return of the bump
er crops, the reports of which drew
them to western South Dakota. AS
a matter of fact, the new corners are
not as poorly provided with the
means to carry them through a
hard winter as has been generally
supposed.
Mr.. Cooper says that stock of all
kinds is in excellent condition, but
the tendency to ship as closely as
possible this year, has not abated
That the drought has caused a wide
spread failure of the hay crop cannot
be denied and few of the stock men
are in a position to carry any great
number of cattle or sheep through
the winter. In most places it ap.
pears there will be a good crop OF
corn and in few locations that
have been especially fortunate the
crops in general will be fair, but or
the whole it cannot be disputed that
it has been a disastrous year from
the farmer and stockmen's point Of
view.

OIL-BURNING ENGINES
ON THE NORTHWESTERN

Chief Engineer Graham of the
Northwestern who was in Deadwood
yesterday from Missouri Valley an
nounces that the locomotives on the
passenger run between Chadron and
Deadwood are to be of the Oil burn
ing variety in the near future. Two
of this character have already been
ordered and it is expected they will
be delivered with in a week or ten
days. The engines themselves, are
complete and ready to be turned over
to the company, but there is still
some work to be done on the tanks.
Locomotives of this kind have been
in use for some time on the Casper
division of the road and are said to
be giving entire satisfaction.

BISHOP BUSCH HOLDS

Bishop Busch, the newly appoint
ed Catholic bishop for the territory
west of the Missouri in South Da-
kota held an Indian congress of his
charges among the red men at Chey-

Indian reservation in the state. The
attendance reached fully two thou

attentive and as earnest in the
church work as any could have been.

CORONER'S JURY HOLDS
RAILROAD BLAMELESS

A coroner's inquest into the cir
cumstances attending the death
Tuesday night of c. j. Smythe, as
sistant train master of the Yankee
Robinson circus, was held yesterday
morning at the w. G.. Kees under
taking parlors, to which place the
remains were taken after death. The
testimony of trainmen, circus men
and others tended to show that the
deceased had ben drinking heavily
shortly before the accident happened
and that he was doubtless intoxicat-
ed at the time the train struck him.
His inability to get from in front of
the train, was explained by the fact
that his foot was doubtless caught
in frog, while he was wandering
along the track. The jury visited
the scene of the accident and found
one of the shoes of the victim lying
near the track, it having been torn
from his mangled limb, when the
train passed over him. The shoe
contained part of one of his heels.
1t is thought the shoe had been in
the frog, but was removed and
thrown to one side before the jury
viewed the scene of the accident.
Smythe's body will be shipped to
Liscomb, Ia, for burial, telegram
asking that this be done, having
been received by Undertaken Kees
yesterday, from L. NJ. Smythe, who
is probably brother of the deceas-
ed. 1t is probable the shipment will
be made today.

BOOSTING MEXICO AT
SO MUCH PER BOOST.

\ Following is a sample of innocent
and unsuspecHng letters being sent
to the states by an enterprising Yam
kee, emitting location and names of
boards of trade and other advertising
matter. The idea is to make it ap-
pear as tho it were private letter
written to the newspapers by an ola
friends Of the staff.
80 many desire information re-
garding opportunities for investment
in Mexico. that what have learned
by my sojourn in the Republic may
interest them. Northern Mexico is
practically wilderness; artesian
wells may bring it under cultivation,
but it will be long dreary wait.
When you strike the rain belt of
Mexico, the country and climate is
delightful. The Western part of the
State of Vera Cruz and Eastern OAK
aca is the finest country l have ever
seen; it is healthy, lovely climate
and wonderfully fertile soil.
TuXtepec is the center of the ban
ana, rubber sugar, tobacco and corn
district. Bananas are the most pro-
titable crop grown, and Il come in
to bearing in about year after liant
ing, and yield a profit of from $500
to $500 per acre, and banas require
very little care. Good land can be
bought very cheap.
Stock raising is also a good busi-
ness, as in Tropical Mexico you nev-
er have to feed cattle, there is al
ways an abundance of pasture. You
buy land at from $5 to $40 per acre
an ocre of which will keep a cow fa'
the year round, and in five years this
land will be worth from $50 to $10C
an acre, for Americans are coming
in very fast and there is no better
land anywhere. People who live II
Mexico a few years could not be in
duced to permanently return to the
States.

FIBBING VS.. LYING.

CHICAGO, July 2S.-"Lying is a
sin, but clever fibbing is an art. A
fib told needlessly is lie; a lie told
to save pain or spread happiness is
a fib.
"The habit of lying is curse;
the ability to fib cleverly is rare
accomplishment.
When the truth hurts and a lie
soothes an ache. tell the lie and call
it fib."
This is the philohophy of Miss Ter
esa Trennem, who concealed her iden
tity under the name of Marie Will
son, and whose countless "fibs" kept
the police, the coroner and scores of
newspaper reporters of Chicago busy
for four days, and nights trying to
establish her identity and hourly add
ed mystery to the attempt made to
murder her sister.
1t was to save the reputation of
this sister, Mrs. Amy Young, and
keep hidden the secret of the latrer's
life with G. w. Rigdon, broker spce-
lator and promoter that Miss Tren-
mem wove her fabric of "fibs"
81 just resolved that I must lie to
save sisters name from being used
in the papers with that of Rigdon
and / lied just as fast as l could"
said Miss Trennem.
| "Theer are times when lie is like
a drink to the thirsty or food to
the starving" she said. "and ! hate
a girl VINO hasn't the courage to
fib to save another pain.
Mother was i'll and her mind was
affected. The confusion which would
follow news of an attempt to kill
my sister might have been fatal to
her. There were reasons why / did
not want my sistesr name connected
with that Rigdon and l decided to
take the responsibility to myself"
| IL told fib when / said my name
was Mary Wilson. told another
when I said sisters name was Deufex
and another naturally when / told

who had met casually earlier in the

"The demands came faster and I
found myself fibbing at every word
and thought. One fib called for half
a dozen more, until / was lost in a
maze Of falsities. But after 1t is all
over, I am glad I have told them
and I would do it aagin.
"I have been to confession and am

load from my soul and in the last
week have learned some lessons OF

"I have decided that there is all
the difference in the world between

Wy, or malice. Fibs are the kind lit.

others from the sting of truth.

CHAS. FRANKLIN.
Too Much Mud.

A. A. Martinez and Charley
Searles have returned from a trip to
Denver. The journey was made in
two sections, one of them by auto
and the other on board Burlington
passenger train.
When the well known Lead busi-
ness men left town they were aboard
the Martinez buzz-wagon, which
whirled them over to Newcastle in
six hours or thereabouts. Hardly had
the coal town been left in the back
ground when rain commenced to
fall and before long the roads were
impossible. To further add to the
pleasure of the occasion the motor
lists lost their way in the mud, and
after covering sixteen miles in seven
hours, the vanished cars looked
pretty good to them and the trail
back to town was promptly hit.
Arrived at Denver the Black Hill
ers found it hotter than-the hottest
of all prize hot places. A few days
of the grilling and it was back to
the Hills via Newcastle, where the
auto was taken out of the stable and
tuned up for the hundred mile dash
to Lead. The time coming in was as
fast if not faster than that made or
the outward bound trip.

SHIVER'S LETTER
TO HIS MOTHER.

Undertaken Schultz has received
letter from j. S. Simms, of the
East Liverpool, Ohio Tribune, con-
veying some information about
Charles Shiver, the young map VINO
committed suicide in his room at the
Franklin hotel ten days ago. Simms,
who is a brother-in-law Of the sui
eide, states that the true facts con-
cerning the boys death have not yet
been made known to his mother,
who is prostrated by the sudden
ending of her only son. The mother
is widow, who has four daughters
one of whom is Simm's wife. The
Shivers are respected family but
far from being in affluent circum-
stances. The mother and even his
sisters, were in the habit of sending
the young man money from time to
time, depriving themselves almost Of
necessities in order to do so. Shiv-
er was inclined to be wild, and ac-
cording to the opinion of Simms,
should never have been allowed to
go west alone.
The letter which he had mailed to
his mother the night before he COM
mitted suicide, gave no indication of
his intention to destroy his own life.
1t was however evidently written as
a blind, to mislead his mother and
the fact that he left no means of iden
tification about his person, points to
the conclusion that he wished his
death to remain secret from his
family. In the letter, he told his
mother that he was about to pull out
for San Francisco at which place he
| intended to enlist in the navy and
sail for the Orient. He told her II
was probable she would not hear
from him for a long time, and he
meant what he said, but In a way dii
ferent from the understanding his
mother had Of his last message.
In concluding his letter, Mr.
Simms compliments Undertaken
Schultz upon the excellent manner
in which he prepared the remains
for burial and thanks him for the in
terest which he has taken in the case

STOCK SHIPMENTS ARE
COMMENCING IN EARNEST

During the week just ending, the
Northwestern railroad has shipped
upwards of 500 cars of live stock
from various points on this division
of the road. This was really the
first week of big shipments, although
numbers of cars have been going out
to the eastern markets for two weeks
past. The early start in the ship
ping business Is due to the determin
alton on the part of the stock men
to market all possible of their cattle
and sheep, at the earliest possible
date, fearing that on account of the
drought and the consequent lack of
feed they will be unable to
go through the winter without SER
ious loss. The five hundred cars
sent out this week, are an indication
of what the season will be in the
way of period of record-breaking
shipments, and it is the opinion of
railroad officials and stockmen alike
that the movement eastward will be
unprecedented.
The principal shipping points on
this division, from which cattle and
sheep have been sent during the past
week, are Belle Fourche, which
leads in the cattle shipping line, Cas-
per, which is at the head Of the list
for sheep shipments, Gordon, Wood
Lake and Crawford, Nebraska end
Lusk, Wyo.
