SHONI BY JUNE 1.
BEN WALKER PREDICTS THAT
Deep Railroad Well Out There Is Now
Flowing Oil and Is Not Fit for Wa-
t'e'r It Is Expected 500,000 People
Wll | Visit In August.
Speaking of conditions In the Sho-
shonl country Mr. O. I ) . Walker stated
that the rnllronil Is now completed to
Richards , thirty miles from Shoshonl.
Tlic grade Is practically finished and
track laying Is going on at the rate
of one and one-fourth miles each day
and will be finished to Shoshonl by
Juno 1. Grading Is progressing on
the Lander branch beyond Shoshonl.
The 1,300 foot railroad well at Powder
river Is flowing oil now and Is useless
lor water , and 7,000 acres In oil claims
have already been filed upon In Its
vicinity. The railroad company will
have to pipe water from the moun
tains. The company's largo tank to
supply the town of Shoshonl with
water Is now being erected. The ma
terial was freighted overland from the
end of the road. Shoshonl has now a
population of COO and people are coming -
ing in every day. It Is expected that
fully 500 000 tyeople will 'view the
country this summer. 250,000 attend
ed the Rosebud opening and in the
Shoshonl reservation there will bo ten
claims for every one allotted in the
Rosebud. The Rosebud was all agri
cultural land while the Shoshonl has
minerals , oil , soda , asphalt , timber and
quarries of valuable stone. One per
son can file on five different claims.
He can file on agricultural land and
in addition can take a mineral claim ,
an oil claim of ICO acres , and timber
land and stone or soda or coal land.
There are other attractive features to
draw a crowd. The National park with
its wonders is close to the reservation ,
there Is good fishing two and one-half
miles from Shoshoni , the climate is
delightful for invalids and the min
eral springs are not excelled by those
of Carlsbad. An accurate map of the
lands to bo opened is being now
printed by The Dally News for the
Shoshonl Pioneer Locating agency at
Shoshonl , which has been compiled
from the government records and
shows all streams , irrigating canals ,
mineral and oil lands and gives In de
tail the topography of each section of
agricultural land. This will prove a
great aid to those who desire reliable
information regarding this much ex
ploited country.
Farmers bring in your repair work
for spring. I will save you 20 % as
I have the time and am prepared to do
the work. Paul Nordwig.

Remedy bring surprising results when
a child shows symptoms of croup.
There is no cause for alarm when this
medicine is in the house as it rarely
takes more than three or four doses
to bring about a compete cure. It has
never failed even in the most severe
and dangerous cases and no home

EIGHTY SNAKES IN A HOLE
Mammoth Colony of Reptiles at Ed
Wagner's Farm.
Eighty garter snakes were found in
ono spot of his farm by Ed Wagner ,
living three miles southeast of town ,
ono day during the latter part of last
week , fifty-two of them celled up to
gether in ono hole. The entire four
score of the reptiles were killed by
Mr. Wagner.
Twenty-eight of the garter serpents
were killed by Mr. Wagner Thursday
afternoon. He determined that there
must bo a colony of them somewhere
near ahouts , and the next day investi
gated. With a spade ho dug down into
the earth at a point where ho found
a little hole in the ground. When the
spade turned its earth away from the
hole , Mr. Wagner was amazed and
startled to see , all celled up In several
llttlo groups , a squirming mass of
striped creatures , sticking out seem
ingly a thousand tongues at him.
His spade began the slaughter ,
which continued for fifteen minutes.
It was found after the killing that
there were Just fifty-two different
snakes in the batch. Some of them
were big and some of them llttlo.
Mr. Wagner declares that he had
not had anything stronger than water.

SOME KNOW WHERE OLD MAN IS
Hagerty's Signature Was Secured at
One Time to Property Transfer ,
Showing That His Whereabouts Is
Known McGreevy Has Gone.
O'Neill , Neb. , April HO. Special to
The News : Ono of the first results of
the dismissal of the McGroovy cases
In the dlstilc court of Hock county
on April 21 has been the withdrawal
of the reward for the apprehension of
Patrick Hagerty , former partner of
McOreevy and cashier of the defunct
Elkhorn Valley bank.
A standing reward of $ ! 100 was of
fered by the county for Ilagerty soon
after his departure from O'Neill In
November , 1904. A few weeks ago
this reward was raised to $1,000 by
the board of supervisors , and last Sat
urday the icward was withdrawn by
the board and the funds turned back
into the county treasury.
Afraid He Would Return.
The supei visors feel that the county
can not afford to pay out $1,000 and
run the risk of having Hagorty turned
loose If caught as McGrcovy wan.
They entertained the suspicion , too ,
now that McGrcovy is out , that some
of Hagerty's friends would have him
brought back to tills county for the
purpose of claiming the reward.
A good deal of speculation Is In
dulged In as to how Ilagerty keeps
himself hid as ho docs. There Is not
n man In the state nioro easily Identi
fied than tie. It Is confidently believed
by many hero that ho had aid from
this end in keeping covered up. The
fnct that about a year ago his signa
ture was secured for the transfer of
some real estate Included In the now
hotel property lends color to the be
lief and shows that some persons hero
know his hiding place.
That the aflalis of the old Elkhorn
Valley bank weio In a bad way was
clearly shown both In the trial of the
bank examiner case hero and the trial
of the suit against the bank's bonds
men for the county deposits , and how
its officers can escape prosecution un
der the criminal laws is not clear to
the people of this community. In the
trial of the bank examiner case notes
found among the assets of the institu
tion aggregating about $30,000 wore
Introduced in evidence by the prosecu
tion and shown to lie forgeries. In
the trial of the case against the bonds
men each of them swore on the wit
ness stand that they had not signed
the bond , though the signatures on
the bond if not genuine wore perfectly
imitated. The notary witnessing the
signatures testified that the bondsmen
had not appeared before him In per
son. The attorney for the bondsmen
showed how the signatures might have
been secured on the bond. Ho had
each one of the .nen whoso name was
attached to the bond sign his name in
ink on a slip of paper. These wore
taken into a dark room and placed ,
one slip at a time , on an ordinary
pane of glass , with a lighted lamp di
rectly under the glass. A blank slip
of paper was then laid over each slip
bearing the signatures and the light
from below plainly revealed the writ
ing through the upper sheet. Then
the signatures were traced with pen
and ink , the result being perfect repro
ductions of the originals.
McGreevy Has Gone.
As a refeult of these two trials for
gery was legally established with ref
erence to the notes and bond.
Bernard McGreevy , who was re
leased from prosecution in the district
court of Rock county April 21 , has left
O'Neill. He has gone west , presuma
bly to Montana or Washington , where
he has mining Interests.
FIND $160 OF BUTTE MONEY.
Hidden in Heap of Cobs , Part of Stolen
Funds Is Recovered.
Floyd Hull of Norfolk received a let
ter yesterday from Butte staling that
$1CO of the money which was taken
from the po&tofllco there Saturday
morning , had been found hidden in a
heap of cobs in a coal shed behind the
pobtoHlce. A warrant was sworn out
against one man but investigation
failed to reveal any of the stamps.
The letter states that there is still
no trace of the robber.

FORGETTING , GOT IN HOT WATER
_
Norfolk Jewelry Salesman Wrongly
Accused Girls In Store.
Absent-mindedness yesterday brought
serious results to a Norfolk Jewelry
salesman who forgot what ho had
done with a number of gold rings
and , forgetting , accused a coiiplo of
Innocent young women of having talc-
en them. When ho discovered that
ho had merely placed the gold bands
In a display window and that the two
young women were perfectly blame
less , ho became for the tlrno being al
most a nervous wreck and could not
In any way , though ho apologized pro
fusely and sincerely , forgive himself
for the error.
The young man had on the day before -
fore taken out several handsome rings
from their rase and had placed thorn
in a display window. Then ho forgot
all about It. Yesterday afternoon two
young ladies entered the store , asked
to see the gold rings and were shown
the samples.
They looked at the rings , finished ,
and left the store. The salesman be-
gan replacing his wares in good order
In their case and found that the case
was not filled by the rings. Some
were missing. He searched every
where , but there was no sign of the
rings. And so he Jumped to the con
clusion that the two young women
had taken them. The young woman
passed the window before long , and
the young Jeweler tapped on the win
dow. They came Into the store to he
charged with the offense.
"I find some of my rings gone , " said
the salesman , "and , since no one has
been in hut you , you must have taken
the rings. The cheapest thing to do
will bo to return them. "
The two astounded young women
were horror stricken at the accusa
tion and their feelings were deeply
hurt In the matter. They of course
denied the charge and left the store.
A little later the young man began
racking his brain and then there
flashed through ills mind the memory
of having placed the rings in the win-
dow. Ho looked , and there lay the
little circles of yellow metal.
Of course ho went Immediately to
the innocent young women whom ho
had accused wrongly , and apologized ,
lie blamed himself in an extreme degree -
greo and would have done anything In
the world that could be done to square
the matter and to show how deeply
ho deplored the unfortunate accident
Ho says that ho never will forgive
himself and that he can not tell how
much ho regrets having falsely
charged so serious an offense to the
two entirely innocent victims of the
affair.

The Land of Plenty
Rich soil , a mild elimuto , and abundance of
water have made South Dakota ono of the
host agricultural states in the Union.
The soil of Lyinan County is unusually rich.
It is a black loam with a yellow clay subsoil.
