the unsesming and unnaturalhour Of 1920
q. m. the II ain will henceforth reach Butte
at 1:20 in the afternoon. The change will
be greatly appreciated by the travelling
public, as nothing is more annoying or
bewildering to the average traveller than
to be dumped of q train in q strange place
at the villianous hour OF midnight, espec.
tally where the depot is 80 far removed
from the city as is the Union Pacific depot
at Butte. The time for the southbound
train will remain the same as at present,
7:50 p. m. The change in the arrival OF
trains is caused by the inauguration OF q
fast train service on the main line between
Portland and Omaha. by which the present
schedule is shortened twelve hours between
the points named.

THE SITUATION.

The erection Of the bogus court has q
tendency to alarm public interests,
and that's just the reason 1t was set up.
The responsibility rests upon the bogus
Judge and his bogus advisers and bogus
organ. 1t is useless for that organ to
attempt to shift the responsibility
through the offer to compromise dodge,
for aside from the absurdity Of giving
for nothing, no party in In

A Valuable Coat Which Caused Trouble.

A Valuab1e Coat Which Caused Trouble
A mar appealed to the police last night
to assist him in recovering a black fur coat
which he alleged had been stolen from him.
Shortly afterward a man appeared on
Main street wearing a beautiful astrachan
coat, handsomely trimmed with beaver. It
at once attracted the attention of a yipil.
ant policeman and he promptly fastened
himself to the wearer OF the coat, as it
seemed to answer the description of the one
said to have been stolen. The man who
said he had lost his coat was conveniently |
near and he was summoned, but could NOT |
identity the coat OF the man under arrest |
as being his. As the clothes OF the arrested |
man did not exactly correspond with a.
800 overcoat the policeman decided to
hold him anyway, on suspicion, and took
him to the station. Up to this time the
had considered the matter more as
q joke, but when he saw the prospects, Of

A Horse Becomes Frightened at the Motor

call for their "little white alleys yes
terday morning on East Park street.
When they were lei LaVells's

peared in sight and as soon as the horse
caught a glimpse OF it he began to SHOW
signs of fe5r and commenced to Jump and
plunge. The driver also got frightened at
the horse and attempted to turn around
so that the horse could not see the
approaching dummy, but he was too late.
In an instant the horse dashed the buggy
against the sidewalk and one OF the mea
fell out. Starting across the street and
then abruptly turning around the horse
partially tipped the buggy over and the
other man fell to the ground. Ono
wheel passed over the mans face and cut
