ILLEGALLY BRANDING STOCK
Gets A. j. Gates and Son I'm TroubIe-HOw
the Compromise of Marital Trouble
Didn't Succeed.

Didn't Succeed.
Sheriff Hamilton went out to Upper
Sand Coulee Monday afternoon and ar
rested a man named A. j. Gates on a
charge of illegally branding stock and
brought him into town yesterday morn
ing. His son, Wellington Gates, was ar
rested here by Deputy Sheriff Morrison
for completely IN the deed. They were
trying yesterday to secure bail to keep
from going to Jail until their examina-
ton comes off Saturday before Judge
Race, and there is every reason to sup
pose they were successful
The arrest of these parties undoubted-
ly resulted from the compromise of a
previous suit in which Gates wife sued
for a divorce. Before the law was al
lowed to smooth down the rutlles caused
by their marital troubles the affair was
compromised. both agreeing on a divis.
ion of the property which consisted of
some horses and cattle, each chosing q
different brand.
As the novels say, from that time she
went her way and he went his, and to all
appearances a most satisfactory and
amicable method of settling domestic
troubles had been hit upon. But the
time came when she saw an opportunity
to dispose Of one of her horses to good
advantage, and a%vailing herself of the
same sine unconsciously laid the founda
ton for a renewal of hostilitics which
may result disasterously for her quon
dam husband. She sold the horse in
question to Andrew +. Clcwcs, who took
the animal home. Soon after the senior
Mr.. Gates went and put his brand on the
horse, and. not content with doing that
much, took possession of all the stock be-
longing to Mrs. Gates. This led to the
arrest of Gates and his son and the whole
matter will probably be thoroughly ven
tilated in the court on the examination.

Honest smokers.

Quite IA number of cigar stores about
town leave II small box with nickel
cigars lying exposed on the showcase.
When Il customer wants a nickel cigar
he comes in and deposits his nickel on
the box and takes ont a cigar, lights ii
and leaves the store without disturbing
the clerk or proprietor. Sometimes he
see nobody. 1t is noticeable, however,
that none of the imported stock that
sell for fifteen cents straight up to a dol
lar is left lying about subject to the hon.
esty of the customer. Perhaps the deal
ers have come to the conclusion that the
man who would have the courage to
smoke IL five cent cigar may be relied
upon as always able and willing to pay
for it whether watched or not.-New
York Herald.

A WONDERFUL VEIN.
Struck by the GOid, Silver Platinum aud
Teliurium Company.

David l.. S. Barker, superintendent of
this famous Neihart company, in speak
ing of the big strike recently made. said
it was a wonderful vein of ore. Early in
the summer they struck IA lead running
diagonal to the present workings and
they concluded to go farther down the
mountain and run a tunnel to cut this
lead and to drain the water from the
Wine run from the other workings, at
which point they were stopped on ac-
count OF water. They started a tunnel
about lo0 feet below the dump Of the
old tunnel and at Il depth of 100 feet
they crt the lead which proved to be
about thirty-tive feet wide. About 800
feet has been run on the lead and the
bottom of the Wine drained. In the
wlnze there is two feet Of ore that sam
pies from 500 to 500 per ton. At the
point where the lead is thirty-Rye feet
wide the whole lead samples from TWEEN
'v-five to fifty ounces silver per ton.
ore is at the end of the SOO-foot tun-
on the vein eight to sixteen inches of
ore that samples from 500 to 800 per
ton. In the breast Of the long tunnel
run to tap the Flora lead IA crcvice was
struck filed with decomposcd rock and
m~incraiized lead matter that assayed
fifteen ounces silver, but the lead sought
rs not been struck, but they expect
70 tap the Flora lead with 100 feet moro
work. The Big Snowy has a large vein
on the surface, the whole vein of which
implies thirty ounces, with a good streak
OF ore that runs from 5000 To 500 per
ton. In running the 500 feet on the new
strike over 5000 worth of shipping ore
has been extracted in c%uttinh out enough
room for the timbers. The Flora lead
has from twenty to thirty feet of ore on
the surface that samples forty-fivc
ounces silver. The claims belonging to
this company, better known as the Ben
ton group, are the Last Chance, Blue

FROM BUTTE TO ANACONDA.
A port That the Great Northern vii
soon Build IA Road There.

1t was whispered around town yestcr-
day that the engineers recently employed
on the Neihart and Barker branches had
been ordered to proceed to Butte and
men surveying a line from the
great camp to Anaconda.
No one in this city last night was able
to verify the correctness of the report
nor was any one willing to scout it. One
thing Is certain. the engineers came
down from Neihart recently and went
west. A member of the party is report
ed to have said they were bound for
Butte. which seems TO rather lend a col
or of truth to the rumOr, as the head
quarters of the engineer department are
in Helena, and unless they had received
orders to 60 to work in some designated
locality they would naturally report t.
that city first. If at last the Great
Northern has decided to build a road
from Butte to Anaconda it will be II
great thing for those cities in alfordine
a competing line TO the Montana Union,
The old saying that n swallow does not
make a summer may be modcrnized into
as wise a remark that n survey does
not build a railroad. Still everybody
here cannot help hoping the report If
founded on fact.
