FRENCH STEAMER LEADS IN EX-CITING CONTEST NOW IN PROGRESS. GIRLTHROWN FROM HORSE Strikes Her Head on a Rock and Lives But a Short Time After She Is Picked Up. The tragic death of little Lulu Soule, the 7-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A.

J. Soule, of Thompson Falls, which occurred Tuesday afternoon Is surrounded by pathetic Incidents. The little girl accompanied by her young sister, a child of five years, was riding home from school on a horse, a faithful animal which had carried them to and from their studies from day to day and which was so domestic as to be trusted at all times. The two little girls at this particular time were on the horse's back galloping home free from all care and not anticipating the slightest danger. When at a point a quarter of a mile from the home of Mrs.

McNorton, one of the children dropped her hat and through her efforts to regain it, excited the horse which reared up precipitating them- to the ground. Both children were rendered insensible by the fall and Lulu was so badly injured by her head coining in contact with a rock that she died from the shock before her frantic parents were enabled to reach her side. Susie, the younger girl, remained unconscious for three hours when she regained herself sufficiently to make her way to the home of Mrs. McNorton whom she apprised of the accident. "My sister," said the little one with heartrending sobs, "is laying along side the road and I cannot get her to speak to me.

I tried several times but she won't answer me." Then best as she could Mrs. McNorton learned from the child what had happened and made haste to the side of the unconscious little one. With the aid of a bottle of camphor she induced Lulu to partly awaken from her apparent slumber long enough to utter a few words. Lulu gasping for breath murmured softly to Mrs. McNorton: "If mamma and papa do not get here in time say good bye to them for me.

I am so afraid they will not get here." The child appeared conscious of the fact that there was no hope of living through her injuries and the scene was one that affected Mrs. McNorton greatly. Within a few minutes after she arrived at her side she gasped and died before the parents could reach her. The little girl apparently struck upon a rock head first with such force that fractured the skull probably injuring the brain. The parents of the deceased are well known and highly respected within the vicinity of Thompson Falls and they have a great many friends who sympathize greatly with them in their affliction.

The news reached Missoula yester day in a communication to Miss Retta Barnes, county superintendent of schools. There are a number of persons here who are acquainted with the parents and who 'knew the little girl well. All of them were grieved wnen thev heard of the unfortunate accident. CONFISCATES SLOT SHERIFF BEGINS FIGHT ON VIOLATORS OF ANTI-GAMBLING LAW. Sheriff Graham last night began what might be called a "slot-machine crusade."

They were vending cutlery and could give no plausible answer to the query as to how they came Into possession of the goods.

MACHINES MOB Plans and specifications for a new bear den in the Greenough park have been completed and it is quite likely that the city council at its next meeting will make an appropriation for a permanent place of habitation for the bruins now there and others which may be donated to the park. It la estimated that an excellent pen one that will answer all purposes for years to come may be constructed at an expenditure of not to exceed $300. There are also a number of other Improvements that are being contemplated by the council and it Is expected that a small force of men will be placed to work there within the very near future making the repairs that are in contemplation. Among other things the council has decided to place a number of swings out for the accommodation of the public, and it is likely also that a number of attractive flower beds will be placed at various points throughout the park. Four members of the city council re cently made an inspection of the park with the view of making the Improvements and it is said that all of them favor the expenditure of a reasonable amount of money in beautifying the place this summer.

It is planned to make a new entrance to the park, Thomas L. Greenough having recently purchased a strip of land through which a new roadway may be made which he has agreed to donate to the city. SCHULE MAY GO TO BUTTE BUSINESS MEN OF SMOKY CITY WANT COACH TO TEACH PHYSICAL CULTURE. Professor F. W.

BIG PURSE FOR MONTANA The largest purses ever offered In the Northwest at any fair, outside of the Portland exposition, for beef, will be offered to exhibitors this year at the Montana state fair. For beef cattle alone and exclusive of dairy cattle, the prizes aggregating $2,500 will be given. Last year prizes amounting to $1,900 were offered for beef cattle and much Interest was taken by the growers in all parts of the state. With $650 more offered this year it Is expected that one of the finest exhibitions of beef cattle ever seen in the Northwest will be made at Helena during the state fair.

Secretary Pace stated the first of the week, that he Is receiving many Inquiries regarding the prizes offered for cattle and the Indications are that much interest is being taken and keen rivalry Is being aroused among the different breeders of the state. The different cattle breeders' associations evidently believe thi.it Montana Is a good field for missionary work and are doing all they can to encourage the growers to Improve their herds. The American Shorthorn Breeders' association offers $500 to be distributed In prizes; the American Hereford Breeders' association Is taking a lively interest In the matter and offers $300 to be awarded to growers exhibiting the best steers; Rosenbaum Brothers Company of Chicago, offers for specials $100; Clay, Robinson of Chicago, offer $50; and the Montana State Fair association contributes $1,000 to be given In prizes. The state fair has done as much as any one thing to Improve the quality of the herds of Montana. The growers see what others are doing and are given a practical demonstration of the fact that It pays to keep blooded stock.

The entries In the beef cattle division do not close for several months, and Secretary Pace state that he expects the number of exhibitors to enter their cattle at the state fair this year to be larger thun at any previous fair, SCHEME IS A GREAT ONE Will Develop Properties in Coeur d'Alene Section Near Burke, Idaho, What is considered reliable informa tion has been given out that a com pany is about to be formed the pur pose of which is to undertake the most gigantic mining project ever launched in Idaho. The company is to be known as the Sunset Peak Tunnel company, or a name implying practically the same thing, and will probably be in corporated within a few weeks. W. A. Clark of Montana, is announced, will be interested and associated with him will be Bracking Ebbley, mining men of Wallace, George W.

Winters of Butte, Joseph Pyle, Senator Clark's chief mining expert, and others whose names are now withheld. The intent of the proposed corpora tion is to drive a tunnel eight by eight and a half feet, beginning on the claim known as the Phoenix No. 7, owned by the Phoenix Mining company, near Burke, and extend it until ultimately tapping the Hercules vein at a depth of 1,250 feet, or 6U0 feet below its pres ent greatest depth; extend it on to a total length of four miles and cut the Tamarack Chesapeake lead at a depth of 1,500 feet below its present 600 foot level its deepest workings and branch off from the main tunnel on the Inez claim of the Phoenix group and run on the widely known Sunset vein owned by Senator Clark, extend ing through Sunset peak. The tunnel would attain a depth of feet on the Inez, a claim owned by the Phoenix company, after having been run 1,500 feet. Its proposed mouth has been pronounced the finest tunnel site in this district.

The tunnel would pass considerably below the level of Burke and by it it is proposed to drain the Hercules and Tamarack Chesapeake, and form a means of egress for the ores from the properties to a connection with the proposed Idaho Northern railroad, now being surveyed, hauling them from the south side as at present. The road In question, it is announced, has agreed to build a spur a mile and a half long to connect its main line with the mouth of the proposed tunnel. The whole scheme has been surveyed by Charles F. O. Merriani, a well known mining engineer of Wallace.

The project is an old one and is said to have been under consideration for a long time. EMPERORS OF GERMANY AND AUSTRIA DO WARM OSCU-LATORY ACT. Vienna, June 6. Cold, rainy weather marred the first day of the visit of Emperor William of Germany to Emperor Francis Joseph. The projected drive around the inverial Thiergarten at Lainz was abandoned, owing to the impassable condition of the road.

Extraordinary precautions had been taken to insure the safety of the German emperor, the public being rigidly excluded from the northern station this morning while the police lined the road between Pensing and Schoenbruennen. The park, the gardens and all the approaches to the palace were guarded with a strong force of infantry and cavalry In addition to many police and detectives. Emperor William arrived here this morning and was greeted at the northern railroad station by Emperor Francis Joseph in person. The meeting was marked by extreme cordiality, the monarchs kissing each other three times. After introducing their suites the emperors proceeded to Sehoen-brunn castle.

On their arrival at the station near the castle, the imperial party was met by the archdukes, the members of the German embassy, the Austrian ambassador to Germany and the principal military and civil authorities. A regimental band on the platform played the Prussian national anthem. Emperor William inspected the guard of honor, after which the monarchs drove to the castle. They were cheered along the route. A number of archduchesses awaited their majesties at the castle where the German emperor subsequently received in audience Count Goluchowskl, the Austrian-Hungarian minister of foreign affairs, Dr.

Wekerle, the Hungarian premier, and Baron von Beck, the Austrian premier. Later Emperor William drove through the town and called on members of the Austrian Imperial family. The two emperors dined tonight with the Archduchess Maria Valelce at Elalnz. WISCONSIN OFFICIAL SECRETARY OF STATE HOUSER WANTED ON BRIBERY CHARGE. Madison, June 6.

A warrant for the nrrest of Secretary of State Walter K. Houser, charging attempted bribery, was Issued today by Judge Donovan, of the municipal court. The complaint Is signed by State Insurance Commissioner Host. The trouble arose out of Insurance Commissioner Host's charge that Houser tn 1903 offered to give $2,000 to the republican campaign fund if Host would render a decision favorable to the Equitable Assurance society In the case Involving the distribution of dividends, WILLIAM CORDIALLY ARRESTED CANADIAN PONIES WANTED Northern Pacific Is Rushing All Available Cars West to Supply the Demand. The round-up of horses for the eastern market has practically been completed and there has been an unusually large drain on the ranches of Western Montana, every available animal being purchased for consignment to the east ern market and to Canadian points.

During the next two weeks the movement is expected to be unusually heavy as the Northern Pacific is en deavoring to get every available stock car that it can to rush the horses through. Prices everywhere appear to be good and ranchers who have many on hand are reaping a harvest from the sale of them. Big Canadian Demand. There is also a very heavy demand for horses in the Canadian Northwest at the present time and the ranchers of this section are receiving inquiry from there. Thousands of new settlers are going into Canadian territory en gaging in farming, which requires a great many horses.

In addition to this, there is a great amount of railroad work being done at the present time and the contractors, it is said, are making a merry scramble for horses and are willing to pay fancy prices for them. Horses shipped into the Canadian territory are a pretty expensive article as the duty upon them amounts to considerable. Were it not for this fact, it would make one of the most admir able markets in the country for Amer ican horses. Horse Is Not Supplanted. A few years ago the trolley car began to displace the horse car.

It soon became manifest that the displacement would become general, says the Drovers' Journal. Many were led to anticipate the downfall of the horse, or, at least, a great decline in the value of horses, owing to their banishment from one field of usefulness. A little later came the automobile. It has commenced taking the place in the city of the draft horse as well as of the carriage horse. That led to predictions that the day of the horse was over and that the raising of them would become a decayin- industry, says the Chicago Tribune.

The horse refuses to go, and his value has advanced. On January 1, 1897, there were 14,364,000 horses in this country. On the first day of 1906 there were 18,718,000. In nine years there has been an increase of 30 per cent. The gain in the number of mules has been great, but not so large, in 1897 there were 2,215,000.

This year. notwithstanding the heavy purchases made by the British government during the Boer war, there are 3,400,000. Increase in Values. The increase in the valuation of these animals is more surprising than in their numbers. The total value of horses has advanced from $452,600,000 to $1,510,000, and of mules from to $334,600,000.

It is hard to explain such an advance in values, ex cept on the theory that the valuation in 1897 was too slow or that for 1906 a little inflated. Even after making all allowances it is manifest that the value of the horse and mule has not been af fected by the introduction of improved modes of locomotion. One may rest assured that the 700,000 American horses are not eating their heads off. Those that are old enough are employed on the farms and in the city. The supposition that horse power might be supplanted by electric power was not well founded.

There Is so much work to be done in the United States that both kinds of power are needed, and probably always will be. Lost or Stolen. On ttltirp fltrprl 1Ti vpfirS. branded quarter circle bar below of animal addressed to me at Plains, win pe suiiaoiy rewaraeu. WM.
