About $40,000, it i ated, was expended in sinking the test.

Bosler, who died at Carlisle, Pa., last November, has been admit- ted to probate here. Mr. Bosler was largely interested in livestock. and farming in this county and owned a ferro-manganese reduction. plant at Utah Junction near Denver, planning at the time of bis death to establish another at Rock River, driven by water’ power from some of the streams controlled by the Rock Creek Conservation company. The will leaves the estate to his wife, his elder son, a babe of 2 or 3 years, getting his gold watch. Mr. Bosler carried life insurance sufficient, it was said, to liquidate his individual indebtedness to the various corpora- tions in which he was interested. His wealth is estimated at several hun- dred thousand dollars. The town of Bosler, just west of Laramie, was named for him. Some of the land owned by the Rock Creek Conser- vation company, near Rock River, is believed to be rich in oil. ASSASSINATION OF ROVAL RUSSIAN FAMILY SUBJECT OF AN EXHAUSTIVE PROBE OMSK, Siberia.—(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)—-Serious | efforts will be made to determine the ‘exact details of the assassination of }the Russian imperial family which occurred in a house at Ekaterinburg. Various accounts of the affair are still current at Omsk where at present reside two tutors, one English, the }other French, who were attached to the family of Czar Nicholas, and who | were with the unhappy monarchs un- itil they were removed from Tobolsk !to the house at Ekaterinburg where | they were subsequently murdered. Official personages who visited this | house and who had some opportunity of gleaning details accept the story that the former Emperor Nicholas, |his wife and three children were thrown into a pit or cellar and there half-suffocated, wounded and finally killed under a hail of missiles, in- cluding bombs. They believe that jthe bodies were secretly transferred ‘to the forest and buried. Special in- | vestigation is being made of the tale that one of the jewels of the former Empress, a diamond, was found in a forest recess. | A story that Nicholas was stabbed j with a poignard by a sailor while be- jing transferred from one place to another, and that, kissing the hem of e sailor’s garment, he pleaded for niercy, is, not,accepted as vouched for by any historical data of a serious nature, WHISKEY RUNNERS ARE ~GHUBHT NEAR SHERIDAN SHERIDAN, Wyo,—Through the efforts of Sheriff Thomas a brilliant |coup was pulled off and as a result one man is languishing in the Sheri- dan county jail, two are in limbo at Hardin, Montana, and fifty cases of whisky and two automobiles were seized and will be confiscated. Ben Rossi is the man in the. Sheridan county jail and the charge against him is selling liquor illegally. The two men at Hardin are charged with \taking liquor into Montana and both were caught with the goods on them. CONVICTS 0 BUILD UP THERMOPOLIS RESERVE THERMOPOLIS, Wyo. —Car! convicts from Rawlins will be brot to Thermopolis next Friday and will jbe put to work on the state reserve. Many improvements are planned for |the reserve, and the streets and roads will be put in the best possible shape during the season. Two frame buildings are being erected for the accommodation of the gang of prisoners. One will contain eight sleeping rooms, each being fit- ted for two men. The other will con- tain the dining room, kitchen and bath room, with a steel cage room for any emergency that might arise. 150,000 SHEEP SALE (5 MADE AT KEMMERER KEMMERER, Wyo.—Dan Mackay, livestock operator and capitalist of Salt Lake City, last week purchased the entire outfit of the Star Valley Livestock company, comprising about 9000 head. The animals were turned over to the agent of the new owner at Cumberland, and are being driven to Star Valley, with the remainder of Mr. Mackay’s flocks, where ‘they will be sheared, afterward being put on the forest reserve for summer grazing. ‘The deal now puts Mr. Mackay at the front ranks of Lincoln county flockmasters, as he now possesses six herds, or between 17,000 and 18,000 animals.
