shot by his div ,rced wlle last Saturday. a.
Flint creek. ia was riding past tie res
dence of his former vie, when she ap-
peared at the door with pistol in her
hand. He shouted to her to put up her
pistol and rode on. evidently having 10

A Wasl,i lgt,n dispatch of the 2Sth ult.
says: The president to-day made seve. al
modifc ;tions in the recent executive orGer
relating to- the consolidation of internal
revenue dHtricts. In the original order
the tlistricts OF Montana, Idaho and Utah
were consolidated, and O. J. lIollister,
collector of the present Utah district, was
designated as collector. This was changed
bv the appointment OF Thos. P. Fuller, Of

district, as collector of the new district,
vice Hollister, dropped. The change was
made because of greater collections in the
Mo tana districts. Capt. Fuller is a very
efficient officer. and his retention in Office
is welcome news.
