The Answer Filed.

Great Falls. Dec. 24.-An answer has
been filed in the district court In the
suit of the Great Falls Water Power &
Townsite company VS.. j. w. Roberts
to quiet title to the south half of Sec
ton SO. township 81. north Of range 3
east, the section near the Fifteenth
street bridge which was claimed by the
state, but which the secretary OF the
interior decided was not a school Sec
ton, but mineral land. The land was
filed on in 1886 by seven others, includ-
ing James w. Matkin, since de-
ceased, whose heir is Jasper Tullock.
and that Mr.. Gibson claims to have
purchased the interest OF all locators,
including Mr. Matkin, and the plant
IFS claim to have purchased Mr. Glib
sons interest Mr.. Tullock claims that
right and decided and eighth interest
in the land to Mr.. Roberts for 81, OO0
The answer denies all allegations of
the complaint, and the question at is
sue before the court is whether Mat
kin properly decided his interest to Mr..
Gibson or not. The townsite company
allege that abundance of evidence ex-
lists that he did.

JUDGMENT AFFIRMED.
The Jury Gave Prosser se 500 and the
Supreme Court Agrees.


Great Falls. Dec. PA dispatch
court has affirmed the decision of the
district court of Cascade county in the
suit of James Prosser VS.. the Montana
Central Railroad company. The action
was brought by Prosser to recover
damages for injuries received while in
the employ of defendant at Neihart.
The evidence showed that Prosser
was at work in the yard at Neihart,
switching, when the accident occurred.
1t seems that the railroad company
had no switch engine at that place. so
in order that the brakemen would not
have to use the big pilot bar in switch
ing. two fiat cars were placed in front
of the engine, so the employees could
couple cars to better advantage. Pros
ser had just finished switching some
cars and, as the engine and fiat cars
came toward him. he stepped on the
brake beam and grasped the brake rod
in his hands. The rod was wet and
very loose, however, and swung
around, letting Prosser fall under the
trucks. The jury gave him $500. The
defendant moved for a new suit on the
grounds that negligence had been
shown on the part of the plaintiff, and
that the plaintiff appeared to be guilty
of contributory negligence. The de-
cision, which is quite lengthy, holds,
however, that the defendant was
guilty of negligence sufficient to war
rant the case going to the jury. Rail-
road men have watched the case with
great interest inasmuch as IL establish
ed a precedent for similar cases in
Montana.

Great Falls. Dec. A.-A good deal of

he collected in licenses $14.1S7.19. or
this amount the county received $f0,-

the state and county funds. II the re-
ceipts from licenses for every quarter

County Treasurer Dickerman has
taken legal steps and has determined
to prosecute all persons who conduct
business without license. pending the
courts decision. He says persons may
pay their licenses under protest and
will have their money refunded IL the
law is declared unconstitutional but
pay they must or be prosecuted.
In discussing the subject city officials
say Great Falls cannot stand the loss
of revenue from licenses as well as the
county. The city's revenue from IL
censes will amount to about $4,000 per
year and with the narrow margin.
financially. on which the city is run
ming, $4,000 is a large amount. They.
however. express the hope that the law
will be declared constitutional, for
they believe that the governor would
call an extra session of the legislature,
which would enact a license law which
would empower the city to fix its own
rates of licenses, which 1t cannot now
do. They claim that the present rates
are far too low, and they believe that
the city would, in the end, be gamer

law.
City Treasurer Frary says he has de-
termined to prosecute all persons who
do business without a license.

LISA GOOD SHOWING
The Leading Financial Institutions of
the City Are All Right.
SCHOOL BOARD MEETING
Claims Allowed-Estinnate on the
Central Building-A Mild Charge
Against Certain Instructors
OF This District.

Great Falls, Dec. 24.-It doesn't re-
quire any great amount of financial
ability for one to properly size up and
fully appreciate the reports of the
Northwestern National bank and the
First National bank of this city, both
or which will be found in other col
ums of this page of to-day's Standard.
The reports show that each of these
great financial institutions is extreme
ly healthy and perhaps a few accom-
modations" to those who need the
money would relieve thesvaults OF both
banks from their present crowded con-
dition. A notable and pleasing feature
of the statements is the vast sums of
money credited under the heads of GER
tificates of deposits. In the main these
sums represent the savings of labor
and are positive proof of the economy
and thrift of a producing class of peo-
pie Of which any community should
feel justly proud. The reports are
gratifying In every sense of the word
and will be read with interest as show
great banks of this city and of North
ern Montana at the close of business
on the evening of Dec. 13, 1895.
Acting President Stamford and
Cashier Hatcher of the Northwestern
bank enjoy the well-earned reputation
of being conservative bankers, as well
as good and enterprising citizens, and
President Gold T. Curtis of the First
National bank is to be congratulated
on the wonderful increase of business
since the last report of the First Ma
ton.
At the last meeting of the school
board claims aggregating s2.743.s1 were
allowed but a part of this sum was
for furniture. 1t was decided that all
claims presented would be paid from
the general fund.
Duncan Bros. were allowed the final
estimate, except the Is per cent. re-
served as a guarantee on their contract
for constructing the school house at
Ulm. The sum was 1866.
Mckay Bros. were allowed the 22nd
estimate, 81 ,605.60, on their contract,
amounting to $59,940 for building the
Central High school building. With this
allowance the total amount paid on
the contract up to date aggregates

A number of the teachers are &C
cused of istructing pupils to purchase

with a view, presumably, of getting a
certain commission on sales. The
matter was brought up and will be
thoroughly investigated.

Goldendale last night about 10 o'clock
She went away thinly clad When
missed by her husband. Sheriff Frank
B. Stimson. along in the morning, he
went in search of the presumably de-
mented woman. Ben z. Snipes was
the first one to give intelligence Of the
lost one. 1t seems that after midnight,
at Snipes' homestead. the unusual
noise of someone prowling about the
premises was heard. From there the
missing woman was tracked to the
place of her death, which was at the
gate of the Stimson homestead. five
miles southwest of Goldendale. II is
generally believed she was chilled to
death. A note has been found. written
by Mrs. Stimson. in which she said she
was going away never to return.
Mrs. Stimson had been ailing for
some time. Ever since the death of
her daughter Nora, eight years ago, IL
has been feared by her most intimate
friends that she was losing her mind.
Her last request was that she be laid
in the cemetery by the side Of her
dead daughter. 80
Mrs. Stimson was about As years of
age and a native of Missouri. She was
one OF the pioneers of Klickitat. Sher-
If Stimson has scores of sympathiz-

The coroner's verdict was that the
deceased came to her death by exhaus-
