MI SOULA'S WnIRL.

MIsSoULA, Feb. Is st. Valentine must
have bcamel more than ever upon his
votaries this year, for they kept the postal
deliveries busy. There were more comic
miss yes than usual. Every body saw one
that just suited his neIghbor, and the
neighbor returned the compliment. There
was a bewilderng array of valentines
which found owners at the postoili 20 con-
nected with the dinner gwen by the Eps-
copal church. Tue young ladies' in charge
did thriving business aud many a laugh
rang out when a particularly good carIca-
ture was given to just the right party.
The returns do not say if timld swains
took advantage TO press their suit, but 1t
will toe the first valentine season wncn il
does not occur If some agreeable under
standing is not arrived at. There lives IN
Mssou!a n happy couple whose happi-
ness dates from valentine which was
written in sentimental mood and re-
ceIved in a like moment.
What threatened to disrupt society was
happily averted, while the devotees of the
IN zy whlrl held their breaths IN suspense.

upon their regular night, they insisted
upon the fulfilIment of their contract.

THAT ELBERTON RIOT.

The Thanksgiving dance at Ell
berton wound up with row in
which one man, Will Denning, was
shot through the neck, the ball for
tunately missing the vital points,
says the Garfield Enterprise.
The row started over some trivial
affair concerning an introduction
received by Johnnie Baumgartener
to young lady whom he expected
to dance with, but who disappointed
him. He became enraged at the
floor manager, Dave Packard, whom
he charged with being the author of
his troubles and started in to do
him up" The rumpus had not
progressed very far until Johnnie's
two brothers, Milt and Henry, and
Dave Mahoney were implicated, all
more or less under the influence Of
LIQUOR. Pickard drew a revolver
but it was taken from him before
he could use it. G. Barger drew
his gun and took shot at Johnnie
Baumgartener. Johnnie jumped to
one side and the ball struck Will
Denning, who was not engaged in
the row, in the neck passing just
under the jugular vein.
Pickard and Barger were arrested
and tried Saturday in Justices
court, with Attorney H. J. Thorn
to conduct the defense. The court
was a sort of double header, both
Judge J. I. Mccoy of Elberton and
Judge O. H. Johnson of Garfield
occupying the bench: Pickard, it
was decided was justified in draw
ing a revolver in self-defense and
and was dismissed. Berger was
fined five dollars, which some of the
citizens of Elberton undertook to
raise by subscription.

IN THE MOUNTAINS.

Ed. Waggoner made second
journey into the Bitter Roots this
fall, says the Lewiston Teller, He
is one of the company of four hun
ters which will work on the Mussel
Shell all winter. He had a rough
experience getting his supplies upon
the ground. No less than seven
horses wore sacrificed upon the
rugged mountain trail. Some of
them rolled into the depths Of dark
canyons, Others were drowned in
crossing SWOLLEN streams and 9th
ers were killed by exposure to a
terrific storm. When Mr.. Wag-
goner left the winter rendezvous the
boys had made one round of the
string of traps and the catch
amounted to thirtyfve dollars.
One night while the boys were in
the cabin a silver tip bear came
and scratched on the door. The
dogs were turned out and an
exciting chase followed. The bear
with two dogs in full bay made for
the high mountains. Two of the
boys followed in a tramp that last
ed twenty four hours. The snow
which increased in depth was
stained with blood from the woun
ded dogs. The bear was a large one
and could not take a tree, SO he
fought for every inch of his retreat.
After the snow became two feet
deep the bear was SO much at the
mercy of the dogs that he could not
make any speed and he was over
taken in a clump of bushes. He
was brought down by bullet
through the head but he had made
a gallant battle, one of the dogs was
nearly killed and the other will
wear the scars of war to his grave.
That silver tips robe, though dearly
earned, is worth forty dollars.
