against the Great Northern railway
company for damages sustained In the
loss of a lot of pigs. alleged to have
been starved to death while in transit
from St Paul to Columbia Falls. The
complaint in the case alleges that on
Sept 22, 1894, the company entered in
to an agreement with the plaintiff to
convey 514 pigs from st. Paul to Co
lumbia Falls for 1868. which was paid,
and 1t became the duty of the company
to provide safe and proper facilities for
feeding, watering and resting the pigs
while en- route, but that IL failed to
do so, and that for the entire journey
of several days they were without food.
water or rest, and the plaintiffs agent
was given no opportunity or facility
for doing so, although he was ready
and willing to provide the stock with
what they needed. By reason of the
lack of care 46 of the pigs died on the
road and the remainder of the lot died
soon after their arrival at Columbia

sum OF $3.50, for which amount, to-

A Derserved Pardon.

The sheriff's Office yesterday received
notice from the state board of par
dons that the governor had recon-
mended a diminution of sentence in the
case of Philip Vineyard who was sent
up for one year on the 18th of last
March for alleged forgery. The govern
or's recommendation will be considered
by the board on Jan. 16, one month
before Vineyards sentence would le-
sally expire. 1t has always been the
feeling among those who heard the
trial or Vineyard that he should not
have been convicted of forgery. The
man had been interested with others in
a mining lease and shipped some ore
for the partnership. In order to avoid
some creditors he had the check, in
payment of the ore, made out in a fic-
titious name, one that closely resem-
bled that of one of his partners. He
then had the check cashed and got out
with some friends and spent the mon
ey. His partners then had him arrest
ed for forgery and he was convicted

wynn went ahead, turning the fifth mark
thirty one seconds before her antagonist.
On the last leg Mr.. Field ran up half
dozen jibs before he got through with his
experiments, and in that sort of monl-"y
business lost time enough to have won The
race. Mr.. Field carried out u policy of
long tacks, while Mr.. Brand went about
so often that onlookcrs declared he was
tacking twice TO Fields once. The breeze
was blowing six knots an hour when the
boats began this beat, but befoio they
reached the finish it had dropped to four.
Ethelwynn stood on long board to the
eastward, while Spruce by making her
small sized tacks scooted over the line
close hauled twenty-thrce seconds ahead
of the American boat, which had eased off
sheets far away from the finish and came
ahead very fast, but too late. Tho time Of
Spruce ~ for the twelve miles was 8:45:44.
