A few weeks ago be conceived the idea of
testing the capacity of Uncle Sans mail

of its apparent impossibility, Deverthe-

the grandmother stating that she received
the letter: that she was not the only
grandmother in Montana, and caution

THE COURT DISTURBED.
Judge Reed Renders a Forribie Decision in the
Sanders case.

The extreme good nature. even temper
and quiet dignity that is characteristic of
Judge Reed was all forgotten in little
scene in the district court room yesterday
forenoon. An emergency arose, the judge
was equal to it; it was necessary for him
to act, and ne acted.
The case of Sanders VS.. Sanders was up
for hearing on an application for a writ
of habeas corpus, made a week ago by
Mrs. Sanders, to secure the custody of
her 3-year-old child that was given
to her husband some months ago in
a divorce proceeding between them. On
the first continuance of the case the child
was given 10 Mrs. Durham, the mother of
Mrs. Sanders, 70 care for and to produce
IN court yesterday; and she was present
with it when court opened. There were
also present Mr.. and Mrs. Sanders, the
four stalwart brothers of the latter, J. w.
Adams, the attorney for Mrs. Sanders
while the defendant, Sanders, was repre-
seDted by Joseph Brubacher and the court
room was half filed with interested spec
tors
Mrs. Sanders is in delicate health, and
when she was called as a witness she gave
the child to her mother 20 hold She
looked so pa hat her mother started 20
her assistance, when Sanders seized the
opportunity and the child and madly
rushed toward the door leading to the
lobby, hoping to escape with it and at once
settle the legal proceedings He was max
ing good Roadway when be was caught By
the four brothers OF Mrs Sanders who
pouuced on him, and the five of them were
soon wound sup together ike ball of
string.
Judge Reed saw disturbance in the
court room and an aggravated case of con-
tempt, neither of which he would permit
for minute. He raped for order, looked
for baiiiff, and finding none present
came down from the bench, and before the
astouished spectators and attorneys Tea-
LIED 1t he was in the midst of the fray
and taking hold of Sanders gave him
good shaking and forcibly sat him down
IL chair, telling him that the child was
In his custody until the case was disposed
of, and that he would learn him that he
could not act that way in his court.
When Sanders took the child and ran
with it Mrs. Sanders tainted and Attorney
Adams, with his bachelor galiantry, came
TO her assistance, while Mrs. Durham
again secured the child. Sheriff Ault aud
Under Sheriff Williams soon came in and
order was restored.
Ii the little boy Sanders is blessed with
a good memory as he grows up be can
look back 10 the fact that he has been the
cause Of about as lUdcrous a scene as
ever occurred in a court aud one which
also showed that Judge Reed will stand
DO fooIishness or disorder in court over
which he presides.
Owing to the Illness Of Mrs. Sanders the
case WAS conCinued until O'Clock this

fined, and said that he had been working
on plantation near New Orleans. He
claimed to looking for one George Lespers.
VITO he said was Al old friend. Instead Of
looking for Lespers, however, Ruff has
put in most OF his time patrouizing
looms For the past six days he has been
on a continual drunk. He was called
Charley" by saloon babitues. Last night
he entered Wilhelm's place and drank

drained his glass he turned to those pres
ent and in a loud voice said

you"
He was intoxicated, and the others
laughed at him. Ruff walked out Of the
rear door, ana minute later the report Of
n pistol was heard. The fellows in the
dram-shop thought Ruff had fallen, and
fastened TO hts rescue. He was lying on
his left side. and his late companions lifted
his body from The ground. Blood was
squirting from both temples, but the truth
was not guessed until the pistol was found

TRIALS OF AN OFFICIAL.
How The County Attorney Must Listen TO
Mznv Complaints.

! Willard Boone, the newly elected
| county attorney, is just beginning to E nd
| out some of the trials of an attorney whom
a great many people think they can engage
| to try cases for them without paying him
! a fee.
The number Of criminal prosecutions
| that should at once be instituted, accord
! ing to the ideas of his many callers, would
| keep the district court busy for years to
come. Persons who have often laid
their grievances before his predecessor
and were told they had no cause OF action
are now coming &c him with their tale OF
| woe Nine times out ten they come with
cases growing out OF little neighborhood
ouarrels and after which all parties lie
awake at night trying TO think Of some
scheme whereby they may prosecute the
other, and when they have found a way to
do it rush to the county attorney and take
up his time telling him of their neigh5or's
wrong doiag.
One man came up from near Clearwater
and wanted a warrant for a neighbor.
a farmer, who he said had stolen five
bushels of seed oats aud he could prove it.
After going into detail and telling how
the oats were taken surreptitiously and
what disposition was made OF them. VIII
lard asked him when this occurred. Five
years ago this SPRING" cams the reply.
He did not get the warrant.
Another wanted a man arrested because
he drove his buggy over chicken as be
was passing the owners house and re-
fused to pay for it.
One man who runs q threshing machine
L
pay for threshing seven bushels OF
wheat, as their measurement did
not come out the same by that
much and he wanted him arrested for sb-
tainlng goods under false prstenses.
Another said that he had a chattel mort
gage on a horse that died aud he lost his
money that he had loaned on it. He
thought it was a case for the county at
torney but couldn't see where the crimi-
nal part come in.
But it is the women that try his patience
most. They are great for Islander cases.
They will come in as they were afraid to
tell what they wanted to and are
always deeply impressed with the
terrible disclosures they are about
to make and which they know will
be terriblp hard on their enemy and who
is always one of their own sex. she call
ed me names" is the general complaint
and then they are always too bashful TO
say what names There was one case of
woman coming in company with her hus
band to get IA warrant for his arrest be-
cause he whipped her and they went home
happy and without the warrant
Every day they come and go with COM
plants In which there would not be a sem
blance of chance for conviction. II the
law that provided that where the court
or jury find that a prosecution was mali
cious or without pro bable cause the costs
shall be assessed to the prosecutingwitness
was more strictly followed there would be
fewer of these petty complaints made to
the county attorney.
