"a BAD CONNECTING LINK
Charles Scott Convicted of Larceny;
Hiram Walker Acquitted.

Hiram Walker, the sshman whose place was
raided a week ago, and Charles Scott, the col
ored thief who lived in Walkers house. were
before the Police Court today.
Scott was first arraigned on a charge of
larceny, it being allie ged that he stole gun
and other articles from his employer, Mr..
George l. Hill. He plead guilty to the charge
and the prosecuting officer, Mr. Mullowney,
asked the court to defer sentence until he tes-
titled IN the charge against Walker.
Judge Miller told Scott that he must under
his testimony IN the other case. and assured
him that he (Scottj would receive a sentence at
the conclusion of the hearing
The CASE OF WALKER
was then called and he charged with re-
eeiving some of the stolen property, it being
alleged that he knew the property was stolen.
Col Jack Brown plead not guilty for him and
spoke of the absence OF witnesses to give evil
dence as to Walkers good character.
Mr. Hill testified to the loss of the property
and Detective Mahon testified to the arrests
and to the recovery of the property.
Scott. the confessed thief. was next called,
AMI said that he stole the property from MIR.
Hills house. Some of the goods he put in his
trunk in his room III Hiram Walkers house.
Witness said that he rented a room from
Walker, and that the latter did not know that he
(ScotD had any of the stolen property there.
CRoss-ExAMISED BY THE JUDGE.
Judge Miller cross-examined the witness at
some length and he hesitated so that the Judge
threatened to send him TO Jail for month if
he did not answer.
Finally he said that he never gave Walker
any stolen property and did not know whether
Walker had seen it or not
The officer explained that pocket book and
some handkerchiefs were found on Walkers
table, but Scott said he did not know how the
property got there.
is this the witness" asked the Judge, "by
whom you expected TO make the connecticut"
Yes, sir. answered Mr.. Mullowney.
Hes a bad connecting link" said the judge.
The charge, MIR. Mullowney admitted, had
not been sustained and was dismissed.
WALKERS MONEY.
Col Brown asked for an order for the return
Of the defendants money that is still held by
the police, but the judge could make no order,
as the money was not involved in the charge
Scott was given the extent Of the law-slx
months in Jail.

ASPIRATIONS OF A GIRL WHO WASN'T 30.
She wanted to be slim,
And she wanted to be trim,
And she wanted to be very, very, very, gerry
tall;
With her shoulders on the square,
And slightly sway-backed air.
That is all
She wanted to sit down,
without hitching up her gown;
She desired to converse with broad Boston a.;
She was anxious for style
Sdbdued, yet all the while.
Quite du fat
So she laced and she walked,
And she listened and she talked,
And she visited in good -ci-e-ty;
But. alas she would remain,
And abe owned that it was plain,
Just an ordinary girl from B.
She wasn't very tall,
And she wasn't very small,
And she wasn't very thin nor very fat;
And she talked like other folks.
And she laughed at all the jokes
Think of that!

THE general land office might do we'll
to inscribe on It's walls the words of Sec
rotary Noble in deciding a homestead
contest in section 90, Helena district. He
said: 1.-THE department will exercise its
supervisory authority to see that the
home of the widow and the orphan shall
not be taken away by n who, by a SEEM
ing compliance with the forms of law,
seeks to obtain title thereto under the
homestead law" 1t appears that Mrs.
Blake and her husband had lived on the
land some years, but had made no formal
entry of their claim. Henry j. Marsh,
who had filed one day in advance of Mrs.
Blake. laid claim to the property, but
finds himself bat1ed by the secretary's
decision, which places equity above the
technical foPps of law. The cases are
many in the land office where this policy
can be applied with public advantage.
