Newspaper in Batsnn, HE Is A MODERN mm M The Governors of Colorado, Utah, Wy- oming. and Idaho, recently met in con- tent me to devise means for executing the notorious Butch Cassidy and his gang, who for years have, rendered tits and Deputy unsafe in certain tecuons m‘~21.- we ltur States. “ Bonn and his band are the out- growth of the rustlers of six years ago Since then they have broadened their field, and increased their numbers. It is no idle boast to say that the leaders of this notorious band has 500 men at beck and call. Their depredations are upon a scale never before reached in the history of frontier crime. All the conditions are favorable to them. They know every foot of the vast territory in which they Operate. taking in, as it does. the wildest and. most inacces- sible portions of four States. Every man of them is thoroughly familiar with frontier life in its rough phases. DUTCH CASSIDY AND HIS HUNDRED OUTLAWS. The forces are sub-divided into five bands, each controlled by its own lead- er, with Cassidy as the supreme pow- er. The outlaws now practically control the sparsely settled region extending from central Wyoming south-westerly through north-western Colorado, and Utah, and almost to the Arizona line. Marauding and murderous bands con- duct their raids with restraint. The thefts of livestock run into the mil- lions.Ranchmen are murdered and driv- en out of business, and the officers of the law are powerless. There are five camps where the var- ious bands make their headquarters, each of which is well' nigh inaccessible except to the bandits themselves. Two of the most famous are “Robbers" Roost” and “ Hole in the Wall.” The former is in South Central Utah, on the San Rafaele River, a few miles west of the Green Riven The latter is hidden away somewhere in that wild, mountainous district to the north-west of Casper, Wy. The other camps are located: in Tet- on basin, near the eastern border of Idaho, and south of the Snake River; Powder Springs in South-Western Wy- oming, near Colorado, and about 50 miles east’ of thr Utah line, and Brown’s Park, taking in the north-wes- tern corner of Colorado, and the north- eastern portion of Utah. It is not de- finitely known in just which state the Brown’s Park camp lies, - but it is thought to be across the line in C01- SUCIS. try and smaller settlements Without ' Many settlers purchase nding assistance in recreation.

Two deputies traced Cassidy and Ferguson to their lair at “ Robbers’ Roost.” They were fully 24 hours he- hind, and their approach was known long before they arrived at. the narrow trail leading up into the rendezvous. Cassidy was in a jovial mood and be conceived that it would be more fun to capture the deputies and make sport of them than to kill them. So he acted accordingly. . An instance of '{Bismkâ€"ih‘c'i occurred Just afterjhe raid at the coal company _ L n 0 The dgphtjes were about. half way up the trail, when, just. at a bend around a sharp point of rocks, they heard the sharp command. “Hands up!9. Half a dozen guns were struingz them in the faces not 20 paces away. The de- puties realized that not to: 0119.3 meant sudden death. Up went th'-ir hands. Cassody stepped up to them, roaring with_laughter. ‘ “ You’re a couple of fine dubs to come and catch peaceable citizens, ain’t you?” he cried. “Gimme your guns. Here. Buck," calling to one (of his men, “search these tenderfeet, and if they have got any tobacco you\ can keep it.” The oulcome of it was that the de- puties. relieved of everything but their clothing, were bound hand and foot to their horses, conducted to the foot of the pass and sent about their busi. ness. To add to their discomfiture a rudely scrawled note was pinned on the breast of each, which read: “VV'e are deputy sheriffs sent out to caxture ‘Butch ” Cassidy and his gm1g.VV hen lle ls Slonrlly and Lazy and flirty.

He carries his rifle anyhow; at the trail. at the slope, muzzle foremost, slung at his back. Not an inspiring picture! Far from it. Nevertheless, that the Sl‘Janiards can fight, and fight well. too, on occasions, has been proved on many a. blood-stained field.

The pros and cons of the theory of the divining rod are again being dis- cussed in the English newspapers. The superintendent of a fire brigade testifies to a case within his eXperienee in which a water finder was commis- Sioned to operate on an estate of the existence of which he was previously ignorant. He got to work, soon found the presence of water, and, fixing upon the nearest and most conveniently placed spring, gave the probable depth at which water would be discovered in sufficient quantities as 75 feet. At. 70 feet the water came in. and at 77 feet operations had to be stOpped, as the flow became too heavy. Some of the tools had to be left in the well, as there was not time to remove them all. The well supplied the cattle, horses. and pigs of the farm on which it was bored through the dry summer of 1896. never failing in its flow. Twelve months after a second well was sunk. barely a stone’s throw from the first. The water finder was asked if one stream would affect the other, as they were so near. He replied; “No, they are two distinctly different streams, running in different directions." The second well was as successful as the first. This correspondent regards the power to find waiter as the result of a force, magnetic or otherwise, over which the finder has no control, and which he is unable to explain. He al- so says that the operation of finding Exvater produces a marked degree of {nervous fatigue in the operator,” deplorableâ€"Q On the other hand. the discomfiture is announced of a professional water tinder who made a tour in the Island of Jamaica, where in the dry season water is a precious boon. He travel- ed through the island, rod in hand. but met with little success. At one vil- lage in the Santa Cruz Mountains he pe egged out part of the course of a sub- terranean st1eam, and then retired to lunch at a neighboring hotel. In his absence some wags removed his pegs and lined out a totally_ different of it‘ when 150 feet had been bored. and after going down 200 feet the borer could not be extracted. The same re- course.
