A Personal illustration of How to Make
Home Happy.


The other night james went home in
che of those heavenly moods which
seem TO fit man for a better world, and
after supper WAS over and the children
had gone to bed, he sat down to spend
an evening of unalloyed bliss with Mrs
D. The fact was, a pretty book-agent
had sold him a new work that day

though he thought il best at present TIC
leave it AT the office and gradually in
troluce il into the family circle, lac wa.
inspired by perusal of it TO do better.
SO he drew the most comfortable
chair in front of the blazing coal-fire i'll

the evening, while Mrs. J. filled rocker

said, holding the newspaper between

Maria, shortly. Perhaps if you had

Jones felt that he had started on an
unlucky subject, and he fastened to
guide the steed of conversation into
smooEhef paths. s5

happy past. Do you remember when |

Mrs. j.. II used to wonder if YOU would

and Mrs. Jones sighed in a depressed
manner.
Mr.. Jones took his hat and said there
was a mana customer of his-that was
in town stopping at the hotel, and he
had nearly forgotten he had an appoint

skipped out and ran over to Sawyer's

SCENES AT THE MoRauE.

The business houses on Main street,
Braidwood, are appropriately draped with
mourning. The scenes in the morgue
were most melancholy. A man came in,
hastily scanning the faces of the dead and
at last stopped beside one claiming it as
his brother. At the same moment a
woman who had been looking for the
body of a lost one claimed that the same
corpse was that of her husband. A dis
pute arose. The woman said she could
tell If she was right when the boots were
removed, as her husband upon the fatal
morning put on one of his socks and had
taken one of his wife's. The boots were
removed and disclosed one mans sock
and one woman's stocking. BY such
means only are the bodies identified

LIVINGSTON, M. T., Oct. 6, 1881.
EDITOR ENTERPRISE:
Now that our constitutional dele.
gates are about to be nominated and
elected, ,sand subsequently will frame a
constitution for the state of Montana,
few suggestions regarding what will
be the names and titles Of our state
courts will be appropriate matter for
discussion. It would be wise to make
as few changes from the present sys-
tenn as possible, changing where it is
necessary and economical and the
wants of the people demand change.
There should be Supreme court, Dis
trict courts, and Probate courts, and
courts of justice of the peace. Our
territorial experience has taught us
the names, our laws now in force are
especially applicable to such tribunals,
but the jurisdictions ought to be
changed and modified,
THE SUPREME COURT,
composed of the six district judges,
would be court of last resort, as it
now is constituted, but prohibiting
any one Of the judges to sit in judg-
ment upon case in the Supreme
court, where such judge rendered
the decision, order or judgment in the
court below, that is the subject of the
appeal, and from which the appeal is
taken. This court shall have only
appellate jurisdiction, co-extensive
with the state, with power to issue
writs of habeas corpus, mandamus.
certiorari, injunction, quo warranto,
a nd other original and remedial writs,
with power to hear and determine the
same, and. to have general supervi sion
over all the inferior courts. The
DISTRICT COURTS
for the state Of Montana, one each for
six judicial districts, into which the
state ought to be divided, have juris-
dictions over felonies and such other
offenses that require the presentment
of an Indictment, found by a grand
jury or body or single person upon
whom shall devolve that duty. Each
District court, or judge thereof, shall
have power in manner and form pro.
vided by law to issue, try and deter
termine all the remedial and oriyi nal
writs, and exercise general superyis-
ion over the inferior courts, corpora
tions and individuals, and such other
original powers as may be conferred
by law, and civil jurisdiction, VIII en-
the amount claimed exceeds three
hundred dollars.

THE PROBATE COURTS,


aside from exclusive original jurisdic.
tion in probate matters pertaining to
the settlement of estates of decedents,
shall have exclusive appellate jurisdic-
tion to try de novo all appeals from
justices Of the peace, in civil actions,
and appellate jurisdiction in criminal
actions. The Probate courts in their
several counties shall have power to
issue to justices of the peace all the
original and remedial writs, with
power to hear and determine the same.

ment by Indictment by grand jury
or similar institution, but such crimi-
nal actions will be brought in the pro.
bate courts upon an information filed
therein by the prosecuting attorneys
of the same courts. It shall have
power to hear and try all civil actions
wherein the amount claimed and al
lowed does not exceed one thousand
dollars, and such other special juris-s
diction and powers as may be given by
law.
THE JUSTICES OF THE PEACE
Shall have criminal jurisdiction over
such misdemeanor, wherein the pen
atty thereof does not exceed a fine Of
three hundred dollars OF three months
in the county jail; and
in civil actions they will have triable
jurisdiction in all civil actions where
in the amount claimed does not exceed
three hundred dollars. They shall
have exclusive original jurisdiction
in all forcible entry and unlawful de-
tainer cases. In no case shall Justices
of the peace have the right to try and
determine wherein the right or title to
land is in dispute.
COURTS SHALL BE HELD.
