to pass until Lincoln began to insist
on action many months later.
In another letter Mcclellan grows

he says, that any one should spread

being killed! I beg to assure you that
have not been killed a single time

own demise was rumored that the re-
port Of his death had been very much
exaggerated" But "Little Mac" beat
Mark to It.

For the purpose Of striking Floyd
and saving Cox, General Rosecrans
made a rapid march toward the eau

some of the most picturesque scenery
in the mountains, his army being COM
PEELED to thread wild mountain roads
aud narrow trails. Especially rugged
was the ascent of Gauley mountain,
the summit of which he reached on
Sept. 8. He now began to encounter
Floyd's pickets and on the next day
saw the enemy in force. Floyd's posi-
ton was Il strong one. He was In II
bend Of the river, with each of his
tanks protected by the stream. His
front was shielded by a wood. A bat
terry on high ground commanded the
only road by which ROsecrans could
advance. The Union army was nearly

NEWS OF MONTANA :
important Happenings Of the
Week Briefly Told.
LONE DESPERATE RoBs BANK
Shoots at Cashier Dahl Barely
Missing.-Escapes with
$1,O75.

Great Falls, Montana. One
which completely hid his features,
held up three men in the First State
bank of Hedges, Mont, and secured
Sl,075, after putting bullet within
an inch of John Dahl's head. Dahl is
bookkeeper in the bank. Cashier
Peterson of the bank is also a United
States land commissioner and was
going over the proof of a claim by
homesteader in room adjoining
the bank when the robber entered the
bank. Peterson opened the door and
the fobber showed the muzzles Of a
couple of revolvers under his nose.
Peterson threw up his hands as d.
rected. Then the homesteader threw
up his hands and Dahl, who was at
his desk, made move as if to reach
for a gun. There was report and a
bullet whizzed within an inch of
Dahl's ear. He threw up his hands.
With the three men holding up their
hands the robber told Dahl to step
lively, open the money drawer and
hand out it's contents. Dahl obeyed.
Then, playing his revolver in semi
circles, the robber backed from the
door, ran to a horse he had left stand
ing tied to a post, cut the strap hold
ing the horse. swung into the saddle
and galloped away over the hills.
The shot which had been fired at
Dahl had aroused the town, and by
the time the robber started away
there were a dozen men around the
bank. Some Of them saw the bandit
flying away on horseback and took
shots at him, but did not hit him. A
posse was organized at once and start
ed in pursuit with Sheriff Raider in
command.
The robber had such start that the
posse gave up hope of catching him
last night and dropped behind when
the officers found It would be hope
less chase. They sent word to all sur
rounding towns to be on the outlook
for the bandit.
Owing to the fact that the robber
wore mask no one got description
of his features. He was cool and col
lected while robbing the bank and
manifested no uneasiness at any time,
while exchanging volleys with the
men in pursuit.

Lbs. Of Wheat.

piest visitors at the American Land
and Irrigation Exposition, now in pro-
gress here at Madison Square Garden,

Great Northern, one of the roads that
Mr.. Hill developed, and now controls.
He seemed to take great pleasure in
examining the different exhibits of
wheat that had been sent to the show
from all parts of the west. Todd's
wheat was a splendid lot of grain
and took the Blue Ribbon easily. The
yield was Is bushels per acre.
Mr.. Hill was also much pleased with
the exhibit of the Great Northern
railroad. This exhibit followed out
the main idea of the exposition to
teach better agriculture to the people
in the country and the Great North
ern exhibit is arranged to demonstrate
as far as possible, the productiveness
of the territory covered by the road.
There is also a wish to instill in
the minds of the visitors of the ex.
position the possibilities for the prof.
table investment Of capital and the
opportunities offered young men who
wish to go in for farming or fruit
growing.
The $1,000 silver cup dedicated by
Paul l.. Van Cleve. to the person DEM
onstratng the widest uses of alfalfa
