TOUGH MAN KILLED.
A Montana Ranchman Renders Service ia

A Montana Ranchman Renders Service to
Society.
MALTA, Mont, May 2.-Henry Mar
shall Of Warm Springs Creek shot and
instantly killed Jess Davis, o member
of the Curry gang that recently muir
dered Pike Sandusky in the Little
Rockies. The Days family, together
with Buck Quinn, had some trouble
over an irrigation ditch, and they swore
vengeance on Marshall. They made it
so hot for him that Marshall disposed
Of his property and prepared to leave
the country. To stop his going they
drove off his horses, r%emarking at the
time that they had a little grievance to
settle with Marshall before he left. At
II o'clock one of them appeared heavily
masked at Marshall's door, He, how
ever, had an inkling of the trouble and
had the lights blown out and the door
open. He was sitting in the dark with
three Winchester rifles loaded lying be-
side him on a table and a six repeater
shotgun in his hands loaded with buck
shot. Davis made a rush for the door,
eud just as he was about to put his
loot over the Threshold, Marshall
fired. The entire charge entered his
neck
Almost Severing His Head
from his body. The others circled and
ran. A few random shots We're fired at
the retreating figures, but none of them
took effect. Marshall stood guard over
the body all night and the next day,
until the authorities from Choteau
county arrived. The dead mar had a
heavy white mask over his face. Be-
tween the thumb and index finger of
his left hand was a match ready for
lighting, while in his right hand he
carried a six-shooter. A posse has
started after the remainder of the gang.
They will probably resist and more
blood is likely to flow. Marshall is a
member of the we'll known stock firm
of Mercher & Marshall.

Auditor Dunn Want to Know What Re-
comes of Minnesota Pine.
ST. PAUL, May 2.-State Auditor
Dunn has sent out notices to several
large lumber firms throughout the
state that are suspected of having
failed to make complete returns Of the
timber taken by them on state lands
during the past half dozen or more
years. The returns made by the sur
veyors general, Auditor Dunn says, do
not tally with the scales made by the
auditors men or with the estimates
of the Staples pine land investigat-
ing committee, the surveyors gen.
eral in nearly every case showing less
timber on the land in question than
was supposed to exist there, and now
the auditor wants a full accounting.
The notices sent out call for a total Of
SO, 746. O32 feet of lumber said to be in
excess Of hat reported by the lumber
men.

SHEBoYaAN, Wis, May 2.-Ove,
1000 men are idle in this city owing to
the strike for higher wages at the Mat.

Zachetzsche & Son. The plants started
up as usual but shortly after the men
walked out and the machinery was
stopped. The men are now holding a
meeting to decide what further steps
to take. Zachetzsche will probably
meet the demands of the men, but the
Nation company claim they cannot at
present and will run full time with q
full crew as they have for the past Six
months. It is feared that the strike
will spread to some Of the other large
factories here.

press fears that there may yet be a
hitch in the Nicaraguan settlement. 1t

High LIFE
Son of kentucky's Governor Killed by q
Wronged Husband.

Son of kentucky's Governor Killed by q
Wronged Husband.
LOUISVILLE, May AT separate III
dertaking establishments in this city
lie the bodies of perhaps two Of the
most prominent people in the state of
Kentucky-one that of Archie Brown,
son and private secretary to Kentucky's
chief executive; the other Mrs. Fulton
Gordon, prominent because Of her re-
markable beauty and excellent family
connections. The story is a sad n
and has caused one Of the greatest sen-
Stations this city or state has ever been
called upon to chronicle. The follow
ing telegram, found in Mr.. Browns
pocket, no doubt is the direct cause Of
the murder: w.
Don't write any more. Come Tues
day. Meet me at S. +. M. G."
The Tragedy Occurs.
Upon receipt Of the above telegram
Mr.. Brown came to Louisville from
Frankfort and proceeded to the ap-
pointed place, which is al evil resort at
1925 Madison street, where at 1895
o'clock the tragedy occurred.
At noon Brown, with Gordon's wife,
knocked at the front door of Lucy B.
| Smiths Madison street house. They
were admitted and went to an upstairs
front room, which had been previously
engaged. Thirty minutes later a rather
tall, dark haired man knocked at the
door Of the house and was admitted.
i This was Fulton Gordon. The man
closed all the doors and a few minutes
later a connection was heard above, fol-
lowed by a succession Of pistol shots.
! Then there was a hurried movement
down stairs as Mrs. Gordon fled from
the scene. A few more shots rang out
and she -
Fell Dead on the Porch
in the real yard. Gordon left the house
Immediately and a few moments later
Browns corpse was found in the up
stairs room. Police Officers Reilly and
Lapaille arrested Gordon as he left the
! house. He was pale and weak and an.
nounced to the officers that he was shot
too. An ambulance was summoned
and he was taken to Jail.
Never was there a more s%anguinary
battle than the one fought on the sec
ond floor Of Lucy Smiths house. Al
soon as Gordon gained ingress a des
perate duel evidently began. Brown
had a 38-calibre revolver, which was
found empty after the tragedy. Cor
don must have had two pistols, as siz
bullets pierced Browns body and three
that of Mrs. Gordon. The coroner.
jury has rendered a verdict Of justi
fable homicide.
Governor Brown Frustrated.
Governor Brown, accompanied by
Secretary of State Headley, arrived il
the city at $50 o'clock. The governo,
is completely Frustrated by the sac
affair.
Mrs. Gordon was Miss Nellie Bush
of this city, and her family is one O
the best known and most prominent il
the state. Her mother was once state
librarian at Frankfort and her grand
father was Judge Zacharia Wheat
chief Justice Of the court Of appeals o
Kentucky and one of the most learned
and distinguished Of Kentucky jurists

Gresham has been offered the presi-

and has an inclination to accept the
position. The salary, of course, would
be much better than he is receiving at
present, and it need create no surprise
if MI. Pullman retires and Mr..

KANSAS CITY SMILES.
A Police Board That Can Double

Discount Any Other in the West.
Kansas City, May ga smile was upon
the face of every citizen of Kansas City
this evening when they read in the even
ing papers of the doings of the new board
of police commissioners only recently ap-
pointed by the governor of Missouri. One
ments on the police force was that of a
man with a cork leg, and the best part of
the joke is the fact that the cork-legged
man hobbled into Chief Twins office to-
day for his commission as a patrolman.
The mans name is William Condor. Con-
don got tired of the merriment unwilling
ly made at his expense, and going into
Chief Twins office, he exclaimed: Il am
the man with the cork leg. Guess I'll
have to own up to it."
Chief Irwin, who also is a new appoin-
tee, was thunderstruck. He sent tldings
to Commissioners Fyke and Shelly. When
they heard the remarkable news they
burst into the chiefs office breathless and
with a look of Incredibly
Where's that man with the cork leg?'
demanded Fyke. It's a joke, isn't it?''
He rolled up his trousers on his right leg
and the commissioners fairly groaned.

fully. Il guess all the boys will be guy
ing US now"
The appointment of Condor will proba-
bly,. be reconsidered. A museum freak, an
ex-candidate for Congress and a prize
fighter were also placed on the rolls. This
local papers have been making a strong
fight against any change in the police
commissioners and the police department,
but Governor Stone appointed men whom
the neWSpa perS opposed, and criticism OF
ell their actions is not wanting. d.
