Rats Fatally Gnaw a Rahr.

CINCINNATI, Jan. Civilian Carpen-
ter of Spring Grove avenue died recently,
leaving bride and a day-old baby. Mrs.
Carpenter left the baby on the sofa yes
terday while she went out. She heard the
little one scream. Running IN, she saw
two rats gnawing at the child's face.
The woman attacked the creatures, but
they fought her, and only after a long
struggle did they leave. The child's face
was horribly bitten and it may die.

Next to the codes and the county divis-
ion schemes, the bills providing bounties
for wolves and coyotes are exciting most
general interest. Two such bills have
been introduced, ono in each of the
houses. Senator Floweree's bill fixing
the bounty for wolves and coyotes at So
apiece is in accordance with the recon-
mendations of the governor and the stock
commissioners. To create a bounty fund
it is proposed to take 30 per cent. of the
states license fees and to tax the stock
growing industry for the remainder. The
state is at present involved for more than
$4,000 for back bounties. 1t is claimed
that both wolves and coyotes are increas-
ing very rapidly, and that quite one-half
of the annual birth of young stock is de-
stroyed by them. The COW counties, of
course, are very anxious for n good big
bounty and many protests are heard
against fixing the bounty on wolves at
only three dollars. In Wyoming, 1t is
said, the cattle men are paying as high as
$50 out of their own pockets Tor each
wolf killed. The only objection raised to
the bills is the one that makes all the
state contribute to help certain section.
1t is argued that the sheep and cattlemen
should put up for their own protection.

The discontinue OF the A. p. 4. seems
to be theme of general congratulatIon
and rejoicing, both IN the Legislature and
out of II. The opinion is that the A. p.
as have made a holy show of themselves
and that the order has received black
eve i'm Montana from which il will never
recover. There are several members of
the legislative assembly who are good and
holy men. members of the church and all
that, and these are perhaps the most out
spoken in their demand for fair play in
religion as we'll as politics. Up TO the day
of Mantle's nomination, Presiding der
Stull of the Methodist Episcopal church
was n daily attendant at the hotel lobbles,
putting in a good word wherever he could
for good Brother Richards. The Meiho-
dists are n loyal set of people, and if the
truth were known often when one of their
brethren is running for office, they rally
around him and hang together with a
cohesiveuess equal to that of the Catho-
lies under similar circumstances. So II
was not TO be wondered at that Presiding
Elder Stull should take an interest in
Rickards' candidacy and say SO. But
suppose Catholic priest had gone TO the
hotel To perform the same kindly Offices
Tor Tom Carter or Tom Power howl
would have gone up from the state that
would have split the blue dome of heaven.

OVER I'm HELENA
special Correspondence Of the standard.


HELENA, Jan. 2l.-The most important
business before the legislature is the dis
position to be made of the pro-
posed new codes. The sentiment of the
lawyers in the two houses is
in favor of the adoption of the codes in
their entirety, the adoption TO be followed
by such amendments as may seem adj
visable. This is the plan of action recon-
mended by the State Bar association. it
is argued that if it is attempted to amend
the codes in advance of their adoption,
there will be such mass of conflicting
amendments that they will never be
adopted at all. At the joint meeting of
the code committee of the house and the
judiciary committee of the senate last
Friday night, Judge Wade, Colonel
Sanders, Mayor Weed, Weeping Willow
Mcdonnell and ex-senator Goddard spoke
upon the subject, all talking along the
lines mentioned. Judge Wade said there
was a good deal of misunderstanding
about the codes, even in the legal profess
sion. 1t had been assumed that the code
commission had formulated something
purely original, something out of its own
inner consciousness. On the contrary,
there was scarcely a section or a line
which had not been taken from the
statutes OF some other state, tried and APP
proved statutes, upon which constructions
had been placed 10y the supreme courts of
the respective states concerned. However,
there is strong opposition TO the adoption
of the codes in the off-hand manner pro-
posed. Judge Tallant is against it and
will probably lead the opposition. The
sections relating 10 corporations are es-
pecially obnoxious to those who believe
that in young state like this develop
ment and progress will be seriously ham
percd unless corporations are given all
reasonable rights and privileges.

Yellowstone National park. In 1869. ac-
companIed by c. W. Cook, he penetrated
into the vicinity of the heaGwaters of the
YELLOWSTONE, encountering many difficult
ties and dangers and bringing back ac-
counts of the wonders he had witnessed
which stamped him in the opinion of his
bearers as a much more versatile and ac-
complished liar than the author Of the
ARABIAN Nights" Before that little or
nothing had been known in regard to this
section beyond the stories of the Indians,
which were regarded as the widest ex-
travaganzas. Mr.. Folsom's report of his
expedition excited general curiosity
throughout the country, and the following
year another and larger party went over
the ground, with the result that in 1872
congress set apart the entire locality as q
national park. Senator Folsom has re-
Gently published in pamphlet form a
highly entertaining account of his travels
in 1869 under tho title of "The Folsom
Cook Exploration of the Upper Yellow
stone"
Another old timer with a history, al
though yet only middle aged man, is
Senator Hoffman, who perhaps as we'll as
any other man in the state knows what
genuine Indian fighting means. He has
had many close calls upon his life and his
scalp, and If he was to write n book on
his experiences with the redskins 20 odd
years ago it would outrank in blood
curdling and hair standing qualities many
of the most reckless works of fiction in
the department of melancholy. Con-
sidered from a rhetorical standpoint,
Colonel Sanders is the best talker in
Montana. He is bird at it. Botkin's
periods perhaps are moro rounded and
polished, Joe Toole possibly can prepare
better set grafton, Maginnis is a more
accomplished rip shorter on the stump,
Mats is a moro powerful and effective
pleader, Carter can spread taffy with
more grace and thickness, Mcconnell is a
better fire extinguisher, Bob Smith Is
more successful in appeals to the gall
leries, and Sam Word undeniably is an
ADLER and stronger chump. But as a
talker, both in public and in private con-
versation, Sanders is the king OF them all.
In exciting and retaining the attention of
his auditors, Sanders is a master. There
are few like him anywhere. 1t may seem
like extravagant praise. but to one who
has heard the two men, both on the stage
and off, in his illustrations, his imagery,
his metaphors, his uncontro liable passion
for savage sarcasm and general trend of
thought, Sanders bears striking re-
semblance to Roscoe Conkling.
