terribly wounded by the battering

their heads above water until they
could be extricated from the taneie
of bodies, but when they had been ia
ken out there still remained grue-
some task for the skinning gang.
$1,4o0 a Week For Skins.
There are four skinning gangs now
and sometimes even that large force
gets so far behind that horses are
dumped in the long burial bitches wlth-
out their hides being saved. For a
time one man, Charles Tillman, was
given the hides for burying the dead
horses. AS they brought from 81 to %

somewhat from the figures attained
only by vaudeville headliners- that
perhaps, in stage money.
All Lathrop has shared, to some de-
gree, the prosperity of the horse skim
ners. For eleven months a shining
stream of British gold has poured thru
the town and few are those who nave
not been able to dip their hands In the
current. Buildings have gone up with
the rapidtty Of boom mining camp.
Huge hay barns, two blocks long and
100 feet wide, feed barns, grain ele-
vator, offices and acres Of shipping
pens have all come as the result OF the
horse business.
Since the disastrous stampede at
East Alton, ILL.,. the British have closed
their depot there and all the horses,
even those from st. Louis and the east.
come to Lathrop.
In the Boer war in 1901 England
handled $4,000 animals thru the depot
here, and that number possibly has al
ready been equalled. The average price
now is $175 for horses and $500 for
mules.
Unless transports begin arriving
from Europe pretty soon, there IS &c
telling how many horses Lathrop will
be called upon to accommodate. They
have been arriving by the trainload
practically every day until the number
now is estimated at from $1,000 to 3d.
600 head. If the influx continues II
may be necessary to build second
story to the county and put some OF
them upstairs.

PRACTICAL JOKE BOOMERANG.
Elect Editor to Office of Police Judge
Now Arrests Are Frequent.

Gaylord, Kan-When the citizens Of
Gaylord, 300 strong, picked George
Leary, the 23-year-old editor Of the
Seminal, as their candidate for police
judge and elected him last April they
thought they were pulling off real
practical poke.
1t was a joke on the editor because
he did not want the Job and didn't
think he would be elected. He tried
to resign. Following his ultimatum he
was told by committee Of citizens
that unless he accepted he would be
prosecuted. Rather than mix In a suit
he accepted.
He has worked out his scheme Of re-
venge. He talked to the city marshal
and things began to happen among his
constituents. Arrests began to pick up.
Every offender was hailed before the
new magistrate and got his trial and
his fine. Acquittals were unknown in
his court. The presence of a prisoner
before him was deemed sufficient evil
dence Of guilt and stiff fine was the
result
A wild scramble is on for copies Of
town ordinances, and everybody is get
ting posted as to what constitutes .
violation of municipal ordinances.
