The following sensational story comes
from Belgrade, and appears in the River
Press of the gath. A German in the EN-
ploy of farmer near Central Park was
frozen to death in the last cold snap. 1t
is alleged that he was sick and the farmer
had him placed in room without fire and
willfully neglected taking care OF him.
After an unusually cold mig hit the man
was found frozen to death. His employer
then removed the corpse to woodshed
and while the body lay there awaiting
burial some hogs got to it and devoured
portion of the corpse. The neighbors are
very much worked up overthe case, as 1t is
claimed that the farmer let the man freeze
to death to escape paying large sum due
for wages.
Suit has been commenced against the
bondsmen of ex-Sherlff Sullivan, of Silver
Bow county. for $40, 900, the full amount
of the bonds The plaintiffs are A. A
Mcmillan and G. w. Cluett, who have
CLAIMS of their own and have been as
signed two other claims, aggregating ovel
$4,000. Part of this money is for judg
ments which, it is alleged, Sullivan col
lected anu failed to account for. Another
claim is for money paid him by Mr.. ia
cobs, of Cobban & Jacobs, to redeem al
eighth interest in the Kentucky Lode
CLAIM. Sullivan, it is charged instead O
redeeming the property, used the money
himself. Jacobs lost his share of the mine
and asks for $4,000 to make good thu
loss. The bondsmcn are George E. Rock
wood. Dennis Driscoll, Geoffrey Lavelle
and John O'Rourke.

Female Swindler.

Philadelphia dispatch: The sheriff
will tomorrow sell out the handsome
dwelling and contents belonging to Mrs
Celia Hendricks, at 1927 Girard avenue,
under an execution for debt The cred
itors are several tradesmen and retail
firms. Mrs. Hendricks is the woman
whom Miss Mary A. Brown, of Norris
town, loaned at various times some $780,
GOO upon representations that Mrs. Hen
bricks had fortune of $4,000 locked
up in the hands of an agent in New
York. An investigation OF the trans
actions which Mrs. Hendrick had with
other confding acquaintance progress
es, new victims develop and it is stated
that up to tonight creditors whose
claims aggregate over $lOO,OOOhave been
located. In each case money was given
willingly upon the representation made
by Mrs. Hendricks that she had large
fortune which was for the time out OF
her reach. In one or two instances she
exhibited paper, which purported to
be and which she declared was a bond
OF the United States government OF the
amount of $4,000 for payment Of a
mythical legacy, and in this manner she
reassured her victims. Mrs. HendricE s
has disappeared. and her husband and
son profess not to know her whereabouts.
They also say they did not know she was
engaged in any such practices as charged
against her. Some of her victims still
maintain confidence in her.

Rank Robbers FOiled.


Four masked men, all heavily armed,
entered the Citizens bank at Limestone,
Indian Territory, on Saturday last and
presented their pistols at the head OF
Cashier w. j. Reynolds and demanded
that he hand over the cash. While pre-
tending to comply Reynolds slammed
the safe door shut and turned the lock.

the pistol of one of the desperadoes
which killed him instantly. The bank
was then ransacked and all the money
in the cash drawer, some $4,000, was
taken. An attempt was made to open
the safe, but in this the robbers were
foiled. AS the sound Of pistol shots
were heard several persons came rush.
ing towards the bank, and in a few min
utes two officers were aroused and 20 OF
80 armed men hurried to the bank. The

Evans, a ranchman living near town,
was killed. In the melee four of the cit
zens were wounded, but not fatally. The
surviving robbers then rode away with
the booty, followed by the posse, which.
after several hours chase, caught the
desperadoes and took them back to
| Limestone. The leader was found guilty
of murder and was strung up. The other
two were placed in charge Of strong
guard and started for Fort Wichita,
where they were turned over to the Uni

The Rocky Fork Trouble.

Billings special: On Saturday forty
two laborers signed themselves paupers at
the sheriff's office. Arrangements were
made later to feed them at the European
hotel, by order of Comings, guaranteed by
Commissioner Hoskins, the proprietors be-
ing UNIV ,lllng to take any order OF Com'ngs
unsupported. 1t is not thought the county
is responsible in the least. In conversa-
ton with one of the most intelligent OF
the graders to-day, it was learned that few,
if any, were suffering from want OF food
or shelter, and while no money has yet
been paid, it was thought that the difficult
ties would soon be overcome and all claims
met. The contractor is not blamed by
most of the men, but this was considered
their only tangible mode of appeal.

Preparations have already begun in
the public schools for the exposition
which 1t is proposed to hold during the
March vacation. Since no facilities
have ever been placed here for manual
trimming, an effort will be made in this
way to encourage pupils in making use
Of their time out OF sChoolin some profit
able manner. Anything which is made
by a pupil OF the school will be given u
place in the exposition. The Contribu-
tons already In the teachers hands
range from bit OF Kensington needle
work to very primitive toy table and
chair and a cut paper doll. Since each
article will be labeled with the owners
name, it will no doubt greatly stimulate
the children TO use their spare time in u
profitable manner and cannot fail TO be
OF benefit to the school. Prof. L. +.
Sparks, the new superintendent, first
thought Of the exposition only few
days ago, and says he is surprised at the
interest already manifested. Mr.. Sparks
is doing good work and the exposition
is a sample OF the interest he is taking.
