How a scalper who Thought He Had .
Sucker Got Badly Fooled.
A few days ago q man named Whalen
bought q scalper's ticket for Houghton,
Mich, from one Of the local ticket brokers.
The purchaser being an illiterat to person
did not notice that the ticket wal limited
and that the limit OF it's value as a voucher
for transportation would expire the day
after which he bought it. He paid 500 for
the ticket and presented it to the depot
ticket agent Of the Montana Central who
informed him that it was no good and
that he could not travel upou it. Whalen
boarded q train and managed to reach
Helena. Here h0 was put of the train
and returned to Butte. The first thing he
did was to visit the broker and demand
return OF his money, Offering to give the
ticket back. The demand was refused and
be then went to consult an attorney,
Charles ODonnell, to whom he related the
circumstances. Mr.. OrDonnell called on
the broker and made formal demand for
the money his client had paid for
the ticket, but he also met with
q very peremptory refusal and
was told point blank that no money paid
for tickets would be refunded. The attor-
ney quietly informed the scalper that a
law existed under which the money could
be recovered, and also that q criminal
statute prevailed witch provided punish.
ment Tor obtaining money under false DE
tense, and then returned to his Office to
prepare the necessary papers for q civil
suit to recover the money and Others for
criminal prosecution for obtaining money
under false pretense. While engaged in
drawing up the papers he received a visit
from the scalper, who said he "wauted to
talk the thing over" The scalper was
told that mo talking WENT" nothing
short OF refunding, the $40 would do.
The scalper insisted on "talking," but it
availed him nothing, and seeing that he
would get into trouble, finally asked the
attorney to accompany him to his Office.
The attorney did SD, and without losing q
time the scalper counted out
thirty mine big dollars. and asked that the
be allowed to drop. A Whalen

quest wal compiled with.

among the business men and others d
this city and wherever the facts Of the
Bonner loss are known.
As many Of our readers will remem-
Der a great confagration occurred in this
city on the 10Th Of last September which
consumed entirely a number of promin-
emit business houses and by reason Of
which the Bonner. Mercantile Co. sus-
tanned 9 very large loss which
was principally upon the stock of mer-
chandise. Immediately after the fire
the company instructed its heads Of de
partments to invoice the stock, and il
that way estimate the loss sustained. It
was done, and a careful estimate placed
the loss at about $4,000. In due
time the adjusters came as represent
atives Of the insurance companies, and
after a casual inspection and without
any personal knowledge Of such values
decided the loss to be about $1,000. The
offer was 30 manifestly unfair that it re-

the company saw that the adjusters pro-
