Giving the Pug Character.

want to say with double barreled
emphasis that the pug is canine idiot.
He is Of ignoble ancestry and is admitted
to the parlors nowadays when his great
great-grandfather was forced to gnaw a
bone in quiet corner in the kitchen.
The pug is the product Of what is known
as "in-breeding," or in plain English, the
offspring Of parents closely related. Or
iginally he came from the English turn
spit and the bulldog, which accounts for
his fat nozzle and bow legs. His fero-
cious aspect bellies his character alto
gether. do not think the pug would
bite anything but his daily supply Of
bread and milk and caramels. He is a
pampered impostor. The pug-taking
the average run-is not capable of learn
ing the most ordinary tricks. His brain
power is limited, and you have probably
noticed that, as rule, he hasn't sense
enough to get in out Of the rain. His
instinct is about as kinky as his tail, and
he is degenerating more and more every
day. New York Tribune.

AT meeting of the county commits
sioners Of Choteau County, recently,
the bill of Hon. Thomas G. Bach,
Judge Of the fourth judicial district
for mileage $2l7.20. was allowed in the
sum of sl2O, the reason therefor being
thus stated by the commissioners:
The board are of the opinion that
the same law governing sheriffs, Sec.
SIS, Revised statutes of 1879, Is also
applicable to district judges. While
the district judge actually Travelled L.
1856 miles-via Helena from Miles
City TO F,rt Benton aud return-we
are of the opinion ii was lot necessary,
and have allowed from Miles City via
Billings to Fort Benton, 800 miles.
The nearest aud most practicable route
should be all the county is liable for.
The board would call the attention of
the district Judge to Sec. IA and Is,
page IL. l4th session laws, as TO amo INT
per mile. We have allowed full pay
according to our construction of the
statutes.

A WELL KNOWN scout and hunter,
who has travelled over almost every
trail in Montana, sent a report to the
interior department to the effect tha!
on a great many of the principal
streams he found large quantities OF
green timber cut down. Tne small
timber-less than eight inches-was
used for building houses and making
dams, while the large timber was left
to rot on the bank. Col. Sparks Inn
mediate'y sent a special agent to in.
vestigate the matter, which he did

DECISION BY JUDGE HoLLADAY IN A
wHIsYEY CASE.
The Deed by Fuleher 4 Co. on One Hundred

Null and Void.

In the Cbaneery Court yesterday Judge
Holiday delivered an opinion in the case
Of Davenport & Morris against Fulcher q
Go. IN favor Of the plaintiffs. The suit In.
VOWED 100 barrels OF whisky. worth about
eco. 900, and was brought 10 attack deed
given 10y Fulcher & Go. 10 lot Of whissey
In a warehouse in Augusta county.
This whiskey was claimed as passing un-
der that deed. and the trustee had adye'-
tIsed Il for sale under a deed Of trnst. The
plaintiffs in the suit got out an injunction
stopping the sale. and In their bill they AZ
tackled the deed on the ground that ii was
fraudulent and void
First. Because there was reserved TO the
grantOr in the deed a power over the pro-
perty inconsistent with the object OF the
trust.
Second. Because the deed was void for
uncertainty in the description OF the pro-
perty, and because the substitution clause
in the deed haa been wholly disregarded by
all parties to the contract.
The Court sustained all the objections
made to the deed by counsel for the
plaintiff. Coke q Pickrell for plaintiff, X.
