INCENDIARY FIRE
Burning of the Tripp County
Court House at Dallas
Gregory, Jan. 18.—As the undis
puted result of the work of incendiaries
the Tripp county court house at Winner
was burned to the ground at an eaily
hour Sunday morning. Tne mortgage
and title records were stored in one of
the bank vaults and escaped destruc
tion, but all other county records were
destroyed.
The building was moved from near
Lauiro but a few weeks ado.
When the new Umrd of supervisors
took possession of Tripp county affairs
on January 1, an investigation was
commenced to determine the condition
of affairs under the former regime.
Some important shortages and irregu
lirities had already been discoveied
with a prosjx'et of more to follow.
The geneial lielief is that the destruc
tion of the court house is another phase
of the desperate efforts being made to
cover np the criminal tracks.
County Auditoi Halligan was at Gre
gory today when he received word of
the burning of the court house and the
loss of his official records. He em
phatically declared the fire to be the re
sult of the investigation in progress.
Mr.Halligan led a valiant fight against
the operations of the gang which con
trolled Trip]* county affairs prior to
January 1 and was the only one of the
former officials retained in office.
The destroyed court house at Winner
was the property of Oliver Lamoreaux
and was being rented by the county.
At a session of the loard last week
the new county commissioners declined
to pay the rental price which the
owner of the building claims had
been promised to him and a deal was
practically completed for another build
ing to IN especially erected tor county
use.

New York, Jan. 17.—A table of re
tail prices paid for food by Americans
in Panama brought to New York by a
canal official, shows that many staple
art I clew of diet are cheaper there than
here, although they are shipped from
American ports at heavy expense for
freight and refrigeration.

last year amounted to $5,325,000, on
which the government made a profit
of $600,000.

A Great Dog Tewn.
The greatest dog town iu Great
Britain, if not in the world, is Haver
fordwest. There are a great many
men in the town who live wholly and
make a good living by breeding, buy
ing and selling dogs. Although the
population Is only 0,000, at least G.OOO
dog licenses are issued annually, and
there are also a large number of ex
emptions. Almost dally there are
more dogs than people in the public
streets, though valuable animals are
never allowed to run loose. Haver
fordwest dog breeders are known for
their working terriers, show terriers,
pointers, setters and spaniels, which
are dally traded for big sums through
the fanciers' Journals and go every
where. It is the home of the Sealy
ham breed of terriers, the origin of
which has puzzled the keenest sports
men. One fancier's kennel recently
sold by auction realized £200. but £250
is not an unusual price for a siugle
dog, while £(50, £70 and £80 are almost
common. XJttt* quaint old town, with
its miffed Welsh. English and Flem
ish population, is almost the hub of
the dogs' universe.—Fur News.

DESfUtATE BATTLE IS ON
Heroic Measures Being Taken to Pre

Ore Bodies, Where It Would Be Ex­
tremely Difficult to Extinguish Them.
Several Workings Suspend aMt Two
Thousand Men Are Idle.
I'.utte, Mont., Jan. 17.—Amalgamated
mine officials express every hope that
th y soon will have the fire in the high
"iv mine under control and be able to
1 vert one of the worst mine fires from
th« standpoint of loss in the history
nt mining. Two men lost their lives
in rescuing others.
The flames are about 2,000 fee* from
the pumps of the high ore mine. This
property is 3,000 feet deep, the deep
in Anaconda hill, and keeps the
atest number of the Amalgamated
:!i ies free from water. Stop the high
or 1 pumps any length of time and the
mines, being all connected, would be
flooded, resulting in loss which would
foot into many millions.
The Bell, Diamond and Speculator
mines are suspended and about 2.000
miners are idle.
Desperate efforts are being made to
confine the flames, for fear the fire
may reach the ore bodies, where it
would be extremely difficult and per
haps impossible to extinguish.
A number of men were overcome by
fumes, two seriously. According to
stories told by survivors Shift Boss
James Kearney and Miner Mike Be
lange lost their lives in effecting the
others' rescue.
The fire has been located close to
the Butte r.nd Balaklava mine, a prop
erty owned by Twin City and Duluth
people.
