ODD CASE OF THREAT TO SHOOT HEAD OFF CHAS. MACKLING UP BE- FORE McLANE; THE CASE NEAR-DISMISSED.

 It all came about over fence Mrs. Millican is homcsteadcr. Two or three years ago, Charles Mackling is said to have built fence on her land. Recently he essayed to move said fence. Mrs. Millican held that it was on a part of her land, and refused to permit Mackling to monkey with it. A quarrel ensucd and Mrs. Millican is alleged to have informed Mackling that if he didn't be good, she would shoot his head of.
 Here is the strange part of the case, however. The day after she had uttered the threat, alleged in the complaint, Mrs. Millican is said to have met the force Of the enemy, comprising Mir. Mackling and his wife and to have opened battle along a wide front, with great swiShing of a horscwhip. Hair Is said to have been pulled in large quantities and an en- thusiastic manner, before the fray ended Instead of being arrested on an assault charge or bound over un- der a peace bond, Mrs. AIillican was then charged with felony, to-wit: Threatening to blow the head off the said Mackling.

 Mrs. Millican appeared with Sheriff Young. She is tall, upstanding woman of distinctly Irish type, and physically justifics the story that she routed the Mackling family.
 Ling holds the complaint must be dismissed, because of its native faults, and the fact that under the word threat" in the law book, is nothing concerning a mere word of mouth menace, unaccompanied by any overt act in substantiation of the promise.

FreeForests From
 Praire-Dogs And
 Other RangePest
TWO MILLION ACRES OF WESTERN GRAZING LAND IMPROVED; MUCH OF THE WORK DONE IN NEW MEXICO AND ARIZONA.

ALBUQUERQUE, Feb. 26.-Ovcr 100000 acres of Western grazing range have been freed of prairie dogs and other range-dcstroying rodents according to report just received by the district forester from the biologi- cal survey at Washington. Of this area 767,0O0 acres lie in or near the national forests of Arizona and New Mexico.
 Prairie dogs destroy great quanti- tics of forage and convert large areas of range into barren wastes by dig ging out the grass by the roots. For est officers cite the Guadalupe division of the Alamo national forest in Southern New Mexico as an example. Nearly 100000 acres of this range arc said to have been formerly ovcrrun with dogs, but poisoning operations conducted by the biological survey destroyed nearly all of them. A marked improvement in the condi ton of both range and livestock was promptly noticeable.
 Poisoning operations have been de- along scientific lines to a point where the work costs only fraction of the value of the increased forage production. J. c. Crick of the '. s. Biological Survey has conducted the work in New Mexico, which has covered the worst infested parts of the Alamo, Carson, Datil, and Man ,ano forests. D. A. Gilchrist has been in charge of the work in Arizona, where parts of the Coconino, Pres ,ott and Sitgrcavcs forests have been freed of dogs.

MONTANA MINING MANCONESTO

TAKES OVER OLD PROP ERTY NE R WALKER
 AND WILL BEGIN OP- ERATING AT ONCE; DIS TRICT IS VERY ACTIVE.
(From Tuesdays Daily)

The Foreshoulder group of mines, situated near and to the west of the Pine Mountain holdings in Walker district, were taken over on Saturday afternoon by A. B. Rombauer, of Butte, Montana, for consideration of $1O,OOO, it is reported. The seller lis Jersey McCloud.
 Preceding the deal, the new owner unwatcrcd and cleaned out the old shaft of S feet in depth, and express ed himself after the deed was placed in escrow that he was astounded with the values given and the size of the orc body.
 Mir Rombaucr comes to this field with an excellent name as mining man in Montana, and his practical ability created favorable comment among miners of Walker, with whom he had business relations. He stated that after his return from Butte in few weeks machinery will be placed in action, and buildings erected for quite force. Mir. McCloud also is the owner of other claims adjoining those sold, but has refused to enter into negotiations for their sale, con templating development on them later.
 With the Forcshoulder in action, four quite large camps will be encr- getically operating with half mile of Walker. Another quite large deal for that belt is reported as pending. The Homestead strike has brought the shrewd and practical mining man to full realization of what may be cx- pectcd when depth is reached. and for that reason many investors are making observations in that field at the present time.
