the heavens has failed, during the past
winter, to note the constellation OF
Orion. the most beautiful in the north
ern sky. 1t is OH the zenith in mid
winter. and at that time the heavens
present their most gorgeous aspect.
Orion is the great constellation formed
| of parallelogram, with star at each
corner and three more crossing the
center. To the west is the silvery Aide
boran and the Pleiades, and to the east
and south the brilliant Sirius, the most
gorgeous of the fixed stars.
Orion. according to mythology, was
hunter, aud man of great beauty and
courage: So wonderful were his , ex-
moon, fell in love with him. This
greatly displeased her brother, the
lordly Apollo. who determined to put
an end to it, One day he observed Orion
swimming in the sea, with only his head
above water. Calling Diana's attention
to it, he said she could not shoot that
dark object. Diana, unaware what it
was. unstrung her bow and sent shaft
crashing through Orion's head. Her
grief was uncomfortable when she
learned what she had done. At her re-
quest Orion was placed by Jupiter
among the stars, where he stands with
his huge club, facing Taurus, the bull.

THE CORPSE IN THE BARREL.
He Was Probably the Murdered Son Of
Ex-Gov. kemper of Virginia.

A telegram to the New York Herald from St
Paul, Mimi, November ., says the mangled
body found at Lake Johanna yesterday in an
old tar barrel, labeled "A Traitor" is believed
TO be that of Charles Kemper a young man
about twenty-three years of age, who dissp-
peared from st. Paul under mysterious circum-
stances last June. The young man was a son of
exGov. kemper, the first chief executive of
Virginia after the war. He was sent to Mime
sofa for his health early in the spring and took
up apartments on his arrival here in a block
on Wabash street, opposite the capitol build
ing. He had plenty OF money and did nothing
In particular but amuse himself at ball games
and other open-air sports. He was Of exem-
plary habits and spent his evenings reading at
his room and during his brief residence here
he made many warm friends. He left the
house for his customary walk one bright after
noon in June and was never again seen or heard
of in ST. Paul. His room was left though he
intended to return shortly. The only ultimate
theory regarding his mysterious disappearance
was that he had been murdered, as he was
known to have carried considerable sums OF
money on his person at all times. He was said
TO have received draft for "a 900 the day be-
fore his disappearance

TWO SETS OF OFFICIALS.
Montana's Election MIDDLE Will Raise
Many Peculiar Questions.

A telegram to the New York Herald from
Butte, Mont, November 8, says: In the midst
Of the rejoicing in this city over the admission
OF Montana in the Union there are many good
citizens who do not hesitate to predict trouble
for the new state. The people of Silver Bow
county tonight find themselves in a unique
situation. This county is practically without
officers. The proclamation of the President
admitting Montana cancelled the commissions
upon which the old officers were elected, and
the new officers have not yet been sworn in.
An incident which will show one of the many
questions likely to arise occurred in the district
court today. When court convened at o'clock
J. ]. Mediation said that he desired to present
to the court his credentials of election as Judge
De Wolfe's successor, and he laid before the
court his certificate Of election, signed by the
county clerk At the same moment L. ]. Ham,
ilton, who had been expecting this move, rose
and laid on the judges table q certificate Of
election as judge Of the district, issued by the
state board OF canvassers, at the same time CALI
ing the fact TO the judicial notice of the court
The scene that followed was unprecedented.
Three judges were about the bench each with
q claim upon it. Judge De Wolfe admitted
that his term Of Office ended as soon as his sue
cessor was elected and qualified but said he
had no authority to decide which Of the con-
testants was elected. Democratic and repub-
hcan lawyers argued the matter for an hour
and half, and then. at the suggestion Of Judge
De Wolfe, both contestants withdrew their cer-
tincates, with the understanding that the court
should continue the case until Tuesday.
