LIVINGSTON, Mont, July 17.-On Sun
day night w. NJ. Whidden. owner of a
saw-mill, was robbed of about $500. He
came to Livingston to pay of his work
men, leaving town about Z p. m. On his
way home he was overtaken by two men
who rode with him for some time. Fl
nally one of the men asked Whidden to
take drink, which he did. The other
pulleda revolver and ordered him to dis
mount. One of the robbers Knocked him
down with a stuffed club and then rit1ed
his pockets of about $500. They did not
take his watch nor any papers on his
person. Before leaving they forced him
to drink from bottle containing arsenic
remarking that he "would not leave there
very soon." Whidden managed tt
mount his horse, but soon became toe
weak to proceed and lay down by the
roadside, where he remained till II
o'clock Monday, having convulsions every
few minutes. He would probably have
died had not workman passing that wa,
carried him to ranch, where he Wa.
cared for until physician could he sum
moned. Although In precarious con
dition he may recover. Suspicion rest
on certain parties.

Big Thing for Montana,

WASHINGTON, July 17.-In his report,
just submitted, Maj. Powell says one of
the most important problems to be solv-
ed is the method which shall be used to
bring water upon the higher mesa lands
in Montana Maj. Powell has no doubt
that the plan for general irrigation upon
which the present surveys are being
made will be eventually authorized by
congress and that the result will be the
addition of millions of acres to the area
Of the United States capable Of cultiva-
ton which are now arid and waste
Montana will be heavy gamer from
this project.

The Presbyterian Excursion.
EDITOR OF THE LEADER:
Tuesday last was red letter day In
the history of the First Presbyterian Sun
day school. At 10 a. m. spring wagons
and buggies began to assemble in front
of the church and were soon filled with
blithesome lads and bonnie !assies, equally
full of happy anticipation.
The procession followed the Deep
Creek county road, which lies along the
eastern banks Of the glorious Missouri,
until they came to Box Elder park, about
six miles from town and one of the most
delightful places for few hours pleas
ant relaxation and mirthful enjoyment
that is to be found, either here or else
where.
Swings were already in position and
tables, seats and stands, through the kind
forethought Of MIR. Chas. Wagner, the
owner Of the blissful spot, we're abun-
dainty supplied.
1t took but little time for the young
folks to introduce themselves to the
berry patches, the boats on the river, the
swings and foot ball, and when, about an
hour after arrival, the lunch call was
sounded, it was amazing how the cake
pie, ice cream, nuts and candies disap-
peared.
Again the fun began, in which the
grave elders, and, sad to relate, the par
son himself, took part, and it is even as
serted that he kicked the foot ball a:
often as anybody. 1t is likewise a fac
that two elders gave big kicks and meas
nred the ground most successfully.
After this the boys races were run, fo
pocket knives, buse ball bats, etc, and th'
cheats" were most creditable to the partic
ipants both in the speed attained and tn
t good humor displayed. The "dear girls
also had their turn and certainly "Daisy
Gehring "beat the record" in three sue
: cessive races, and if all the races wer
carried out on this plan-plenty of fu
and no gambling it would be fine spor
for everybody.
f Ever and anon groups Of both old an
i young would withdraw "'neath tn
$ spreading boughs" and rest in the COO
ing shade where the rivers sparklin
gleam delighted the eye and its ripplin
q pleased the ear.
: : Three cheers were given for Mr.. Aiken
!. the secretary, with hip! hip! hurra
II for Mr. Chas. Wegner, which were give
again for the teachers and friends. an
\ vet again for the Rev. MIR. Reid. 1t
not necessary to state that the grove r
:, sounded aud the rocks re-echoed the lust
- cheers Of the children.
At $50 p. IN. the grove was left wi,
many a pleasant recollection, and 80 Fl
!, as known not cloud dimmed the plea
ure of the day, in which over one hu
dred joyous people-the aged and Il
young, the matron and the maiden, Il
grave and the gay, participated. r.

Pro Homo Pub1icO.


EDITOR OF THE LEADER:
Having just returned from trip
through the eastern part of the county,
several points suggest themselves.
A late article in your paper, on county
roads, was right to the point and read
with interest. On the road from Cora to
Belt we observed several bridges, in q
dangerous condition. In fact the whole
road needs repairs. This state of affairs
we were informed was due to the fact
that the interest of certain merchants in
this vicinity made it more advantageous
to keep up the Otter creek road and to
entirely ignore the needs of the Cora peo-
pie.
This, if true, is an outrage on the tax
payers of the latter precinct and it Is to
| he hoped that ventilation in your papel
may bring to light the mechanism by
which public business is carried out in
the interest of one or two individuals.

EDITOR OF THE LEADER:
We understand that number Of
ranchers who have good fields of wheat
intend to cut it for hay. Now We wish
to call the attention of all ranchers whc
procured seed of us at cost and on time
that it is not treating this company fairly,
after getting seed from us on such liberal
terms, to cut the wheat for hay, and we
feel sure that after your attention is call
ed to the matter you will not do so. Har
vest your wheat and, owing to the gen
eral shortage of wheat and the conse
quent high price, you will get rs much
out Of the wheat and the straw as yo,
would to cut the grain for hay, and at the
same time you will not injure your home
mill, which let you have seed wheat OF
such liberal terms.
