some who lost horses could not restrain
their tears.
Walter Gehring, TRIBUNE carrier,
discovered the fire and gave the alarm
lie says that the fire appeared to have
started in shed at the rear of the stable.
Tom kincald was sleeping on the first
floor of the stable. He was awakened
by the suffocating smoke and attempted
to reach the door, but was overcome
about six feet from the exit. The door
was then burst in and he was rescued.
He states that at p. IN. he harnessed
horse for p. b. Gallagher, but knows
that no match or cigar was thrown on
the floor at that time.

The origin of the fire is unknown. Both
Mr.. Hamilton and Mr.. nj liver believe
that some enemy of theirs set it afire.
The belief that it was incendiary is
by the fact that Officer Ed
Hamilton saw Il man set fire to the load
OF hay. only one block away. which was
burned AT 12:30 Il. IN. He at first thought
that someone had lit Il cigar, but in
about minute the wagon was ablaze

lncendiary. A man was
for the crime, but the evidence
was insufficient to convict him.
The body of Ncvins was dressed by

placed in Il handsome casket. Both
hands were missing and the face was
,harred beyond recognition.
The deceased was about 80 years of
age and unmarried. lie was gentleman

the Nurse.
The extent to which lawyers can ex-
erclso their imagination when pleading
in behalf Of their clients is almost be-
yOnd belief, but sometimes the tables
are turned i'll very unexpected fashion.
On one occasion Mr.. So was en-
gagged in presenting the case Of a wom-
an who petitioned the court to grant
her q judicial separation from her hus-
band. workingman. and urged that as
she was III extreme poverty she was e-l-
titled to alimony according to her hus-
bands means
With u voice broken in its pathos the
lawyer dilatod on tho imperative neces-
slty Of the case, declaring that his client
was utterly destitute. not having a mat
tress to lie upon, and not possessing the
means to purchase Il crust of bread.
When the evidence had been heard
the judge, who well knew the counsel's
unlimited powers Of cxaggeration,
turned to the appellant and addressed to
her Il few questions
Have you then no occupation: %
dyes, my lord; I am nurse" " was
the incautious reply.
"And where are you employed:"
81 am ut Nh. S------'s,n y she unwit-
tingly rejoined, pointing to her counsel.
1t was with the greatest difficulty
that the judge rofraimod from joining in

admission was hailed. Boston Travel

COlORADO'S CLIMATE,
Region of Outdoor Life Decidedly Fa-
vOrable to Health.


The easterner, bred and born at sea
level, has q very vague idea of that part
! Of his country which is at q cloud
height, and he has scarcely any concep-
tion of the governing climate of such a
section. The purely picturesque appeals
to the tourist, and he gives hardly a
thought, surely not a serious one, to the
high altitude section through which he
passes.
| The Adirondacks have accomplished
wonderful temporary healings and per-
| manent cures for certain pulmonary
troubles, yet their beneficial results do
not compare in extent with those of that
| section which lies at an altitude vary
ing from $500 to 5000 feet above the
sea, known as tho high and dry Rocky
Mountain belt, whose heart is Colorado.

formed OF this climate, for in these COM

From the Helena Independent
Mrs William Frost arrived Friday
from Great Falls in search Of her hus-
band, from whom she has not heard a
word III more than year. Her home is
in Minnesota. Her husband, who is a
carpenter, left there five yesrs ago TO
look for employment in the west. She
heard from him regularly until I'ehru-
AIRY, 1884, when he wrote from Lethbridge
that he was going to Columbia Falls.
She came to Montana, but could find
no trace of her husband, At Great Falls
she learned that IA man had been seen on
the Blackfoot whose description tailed
with that of her husband. This man
acted insane, but what became of him
she could not learn. No such man has
been in the insane asylum. Mrs. Frost
came to Helena hoping to get some in.

her story at the police station, and was
given the assurance that lookout would
be kept for Frost and information sent
