should be Sentenced at once.

PHILADELPHIA, June 23.-John Bards-
ley, ex-city treasurer, who several days
ago pleaded guilty to embezzlement of
public funds, was brought to the court
for sentence today, but on motion of the
district attorney sentence was suspended
indefinitely.
The district attorney opened proceed
ings by stating that he wished to call
some witnesses from whom the court
could get information on which to pass
sentence. An expert accountant testi-
fed that Bardsley in his two and a half
years incumbency in Office as city treas
urer received 100000 interest on public
money; that Bardsley used $500 900 in
speculation and had loaned $500, 900 to
one banking firm and 5000, 900 to another.
He also loaned $400, 900 to the Bradford
mills company of which he was owner.
Bardsley also sold and converted to his
own use $57 900 worth of government
bonds which he held for the city; but
this money was subseq uently returned.
The expert found that Bardsley's stock
opera tions had cost him in the neighbor-
hood of 500, 600. :. 'ei

in California for about 3 cents a pound

per pound. To this the cost of transpor-

Reports Received From the Grazing
Districts of Montana Are Most En-
couragfnE.

HELENA, Mont, June 21.-Secretary
Preuitt, of the State live Stock Assoeia-
ton, has received reports from all of the
grazing districts in this state. These re-
ports are to the effect that the grass
crop is much larger this year than it has
been since 1885. Taking advantage of
this fact the cattlemen have bought
thousands of Texas 2-year-olds and are
driving them to the eastern counties OF
Montana. A large proportion of these
purchases are now on the trails in Colo
rado, vending their way northward.
The cattle wintered unusually well in
this state, and the calf crop has been
very large. The weather has been So
favorable that a high percentage of the
youngsters were saved. Cattlemen esti-
mate that 100000 head will be sent to
the market from this state in the fall.
The sheepmen are equally happy and
sanguine. Their stock wintered we'll,
and the lamb crop is very large. Shear
ing has been in progress for about ten
days. The feeces are heavier than
usual, and the wool is cleaner and of ex-
cellent grade. The yield this year will
be over IA ,0O0, 900 pounds, and Sc, ,OOO, 900
worth of sheep will be sent to market

DELANo, Mimi, June 21.-The body of
Annie Brunder, aged thirteen, was
found a few rods from the railroad track
between Montrose and Waverly last
night: She lived about a quarter ,of
mile from Montrose. She had been to
school and was returning home Thurs
day evening when she was assaulted.
Her parents, supposing that she had
passed the night with friends, were not
anxious about her until Friday evening.
when they became alarmed and at once
instituted a search. When fonnd, her
hands were tied behind her, her feet tied
together, and her apron tied tightly
around her face. Suspicion points
strongly toward John Maseue, thirteen
year-old boy of Montrose, and if it is
confirmed. he will probably never be

Mrs. cro1y and Her work.

Mrs. Croly, whose pen name is Jennie
June, has long been a favorite with the
reading public, is the president of the
Women's Press club and the founder of
it, for it was her call to the press women
OF New York that resulted in the organi-
zation of the present club Sorosis also
owes its birth to Mrs. Croly, in whose
house it was organized, and she has
written a history of it,
At present Mrs. Croly is the editor of
The Home Maker. into which the Wom-
ems Cycle, that was started by her few
years ago, has been merged, retaining,
however, the name of Cycle department.
To this magazine Mrs. Croly now de-
votes the greater part of her time, but
goes about to various cities and towns in
the United States, whenever she is called
upon, to speak of club life before wom-
ems clubs. No woman perhaps has had
more experience than she has had in this
respect, and her love for all women and
her interest in everything pertaining to
them render her peculiarly well fitted
for this work. She does not sympathize
with the universal suffrage movement
for won en-, nor does she approve of it
for men, but she thinks that certain
classes of women should have a voice in
the making of the laws, and she believes
that the time will come when they viii
have it.
A thoroughly womanly woman, Mrs
Croly's slight figure and unwrinkled
face make her look almost too young to
be the mother of grown up children.
She lives in dainty flat uptown that is
filed with books, pictures and bric-a-
brac, making it the ideal literary wom-
ans home Her Sunday evening recep-
tions are crowded with bright men and
women, and the young aspirant for jour
naistic and literary honors is always
cordially welcomed by the genial host
