THE Montana democrats are fixing
a plan whereby to block the election of
United States senators in the legisla-
ture. and give the appointment of
them into the hands of the governor,
who is a democrat. They claim to be
able to do that sbecause the state SEN
ate is a tie, and cannot therefore find a
quorum to vote for the republican can
didates, if the democratic senators re-
frain from voting. BY this means the
session Of ninety days can be exhaust
ed without an election, when it will
be the governors duty to appoint sem
ators. If this programme is adopted,
and no compromise effected, there
promises TO be very pretty fight IN
the legislature this winter.

One Of the most dastardar,Iv !

One OF the most dastardar6lv ont
RACES on record was perpetrated at
Parsons, Sunday night. The wife of
Charles Barnhart, an engineer on the
NJ, &. & T. railroad, was in her house
alone. Observing the folding doors be-
tween the parlor and the room she was
sitting IN, ajar. she arose and closed
them. Immediately afterward they
were opened again. She again arose
and closed them, only to have them re-
opened. Being assured by this that
some one was in there she became
alarmed and was in the act of fleeing
the house, when her attention was
drawn to the rear window where she
| discovered 3 man clad only in
his shirt, opening the window. She
screamed, but it had no effect on the
intruder. She then ran out of the
house. At the porch door she was
seized by another ruffian concealed
there, but escaped to a neighbours
after struggle. Search of the prem
ises was begun at once, but to no par
pose, the villains had fed. For some
time past a man in a nude condition
has been making his appearance at tn,
windows of private houses, frighten-
ing the inmates, but thus far hal

IT is not uncommon to hear that a

children on her hands, gets desperate
and kills both herself and children.

abandoned by a worthless wife, sick
and unable to care for two small chill
dren, buys a revolver, places the un-
suspecting lambs on his knee, kisses
them and then -woeful to relate

tragedy by attempting to shoot him

where philanthropy, untold wealth
