THREE DEAD MEN ON
A FLOATING RAFT
LABELED dead MEN TELL NO
TALES"-UNkNOWN KENTUCKY
VICTIMS GAGGED.

Lexington, KY, April 25.-With
their skulls crushed to a pulp and
note pinned to their labels bearing
the grim remark, dead men tell
no tales the bodies of three un-
known raftsmen have been found in
the Kentucky river at Campton, Wolf
county, in the Kentucky noun aims.
The bodies were tied to a log raft
and had apparently been in the water
several days. The authorities have
taken the matter up and every posi-
BILE effort has been made to identify
the bodies, but without avail.
Officers are now searching for
some clew to the murderers, but
nothing has yet been found to af
ford the slightest trace. The bodies
were found by Purdue, a riverman,
while gathering stray logs around the
RATS torn from their moorings up
river by the freshets.

servation Glass at Guymon, Okla.
Guymon, Okla, April 25-For the
purpose of assisting in perfecting the
government method of survey H. n
King and A. M. Sobierlaski, two gov
ernment civil engineers, arrived in
Guymon yesterday and are having
the necessary erectic1s perfected for
the mounting of a ninetydiameter
glass for the purpose of getting q
line on the stars and getting the
correct time for governing the in
tricate pieces which they have in
stalled in the basement of the High
School building. The work here will
consume several days, when the en-.
gineers will move on to a new 10
cation.
The results obtained will do little
or no good in the way of correcting
short surveys on land, and is valuable
only in arriving at the determination
of boundary lines between govern.
ments and sea boundaries, etc, and
the measurements of intensity of
gravity found at this point, together
with those picked up at other places.
All will go to help determine the
rotundity of the earth's surface.

Old Mexican Skirmish.

April 26.--On April 26, 1876, the
United States congress declared war
AGAINST Mexico. Trouble had been
brewing for some time over the
boundary line between Texas and
Mexico, the U. S. contending that the
Rio Grande was the line, and Mexico
claiming that the Nueces was where
We got off. This was no Billtaft
'maneuver,' as congress appropriat-
ed s10,000,O00, and the dogs OF war
were cut loose. The first few months
were spent in preparation and then
the heavy stuff was pulled off Bat
ties were fought at Buena Vista, Sac
ramento, Vera Cruz, Cerro Gorda,
Chapultepec, and on the 14th of Sep
tember, 1S47, General Scott made his
triumphant entry into the City of
Mexico and hauled down the flag that
had floated over the halls of the Mon
tezumas since the conquest of CorteZ.
That showed the Mex what Uncle Sam
could do. and treaty of peace was
soon signed that settled the border
question, and We're it not for the fact
that Mexico has some timber and min
eral lands that some people fancy, we
would probably be at peace with Mex
leo till the crack of doom.
