HELENA, July 30.-Another case
brought about by the so-called Geary
act came up in the United States court
this morning. A Chinaman named Toy
Fou, being tried on charge of being in
this country without the necessary Ger
tificate, Attorney Stranahan appeared
for the defendant and District Attorney
Leslie conducted the prosecution. From
several dispositions from white men and
Cinnamon in Isleton, CAL. and the testi-
mony of two Chinese witnesses on the
stand it was ascertained that Toy Fou at
the time it was necessary to secure GER
titicates had been merchar: in the
town of Isleton, and therefore it was not
necessary that he should take out GER
tificate, as the Geary act excepts mer.
chants from the list of those who must
obtain permit to allow them to remain
in this country. Toy Fou came to Hell
ena year ago and since that time hat
not done any manual labor. 1t came tc
the notice of the Chinese inspector that
he was without license or certificate
Hence his arrest and trial. After hear
ing the testimony Judge Knowles ruleo
that it was not sufficient to warrant the
deportation Of the defendant, who was
accordingly discharged.

About the Northern Montana Roundup
Association and Its Plans.
Never before we're the stockmen Of
northern Montana banded together so
solidly as they will be in the Northern
Montana Roundup association, which
embraces the counties of Choteau, Val
ley, Teton and Cascade, and the money
necessary to carry on its work will be
raised by the different roundup outfits
in those counties in manner that will
insure sufficient fund without being
burdensome to individual owners, and
will be pro rata on the stock owned
The plan Of organization and making as
assessments for carrying out its purpoes
is such that all stockmen in the counties
mentioned will unavoidably as we'll as
voluntarily become members of it.
In addition to the members of the OK
ecutve committee appointed last April
the following citizens of Cascade county
were appointed on the committee to rep
resent the ranges of this county: John
Lepley of Great Falls, Matt Furnell of the
lower Sun RIVER valley, E. d. Hastie of
the upper Sun river valley G. HI. Austin
of Chestnut valley. The secretary and
treasurer will have their offices at Fort
Benton.
The following articles of the bylaws
show the plan of providing for harmony
and those who are eligible to member

tee of arbitration, who shall hear and
determine the equal rights of members

In speaking Of the discussion of cattle
stealing at Mondays meeting at Fort
Benton, the River Press makes the fol-
lowing significant utterance:
"The question was fully discussed, and
while it was agreed that the evil could
probably be most effectively abated by
the summary methods prevailing in the
early eighties, it was decided to try to
suppress this grave offence according to
form of law. Should the experiment
prove inadequate to the demands of the
situation, resort must eshad to methods
that have proven effective in the past.

HOW HE ACQUIRED THIS DREADFUL

Some of the Effects of the Drug

Who Has Used it For the

How does morphine fiend be.

1t is told best in San Antonio
fiend's own words:
81 have used morphine for the
past five years. 1 used to smoke
opium, but finally the stuff got too
expensive for me and used up too
much OF my time, so 1 went to u.s.
ing the white stuff The way 1
got into the habit is like this: One
fine day / thought l would try it,
just for fun. 1t went pretty we'll,
and 1 liked it. The next day /
thought 1 would try it again. 1
did. The stuff agreed with me right
along and made me feel like a new
man after 1 used it. Well, of course,
1 kept it up. However, 1 thought
1 would quit it for awhile, and not
until then did / know that there
was such a thing as getting into the
opium habit. Why, when l used to
hear about people having the opium
or morphine habit / would laugh
at them. But l am convinced now
that there are such unfortunates,
and 1 regret the day L ever smoked
opium. 1t is curse upon me and
will be my death.
doctors are to blame a great
deal for the large number of
fiends. l call them fiends be-
cause the cussed stuff makes a
fiend out Of every one who uses it.
There are doctors who admin
lister morphine to their patients
for every little headache or slight
attack Of neuralgia. After a per-
son once uses the stuff constantly
for three or four weeks it is pretty
hard to quit it. l don't believe
that a person who has used 1t for
over three years can ever quit it
The habit grows on him and his
entire system becomes so inoculat-
ed with the drug that to give up
the use of 1t would affect him in
juriously. Some people have been
known to become insane by depriv.
ing themselves of the stuff, just
like you have heard of reformed
drunkards going mad.
When once one acquires the NOR
phine habit, it is no longer lux
ury to drive away the blues, but
a necessity to restore ones normal

A Mothers Crime.

GLASGOW, Aug. ga woman
named Janet Campbell, or Milroy,
wife Of Robert Milroy, a warehouse
man, residing at Maryhill, near
Glasgow, cut the Threats OF her two
children and committed suicide.
When the husband left the house
in early morning for his work his
wife appeared to be in her usual
health. On his return about six
o'clock at night his admission to
the house was delayed. At length
his wife opened the door, and he
noticed a white cloth with blood on
1t round her throat. She walked
into the kitchen, and on his follow
ing her he saw his two children ly-
ing in bed with their throats also
bloody. The police were called in,
and two doctors gave it as their
opinion that the children had been
dead for several hours, and while
the medical men were in the house
the woman herself died. The
children were aged respectively
three weeks and thirteen months.
1t appears that for SOME time past
Mrs. Milroy had been subject to
fits Of melancholy, and one day
last week she told neighbor that
she had killed her children. The
husband was making arrange
ments for her removal to the asy-
lum when the unfortunate occur
renee happened.
