DOCKERY DOESU'
LIKE DYNAMITE
In Hopes That The Gar
bage Men Will Over
look It.
Rumored That They Were De-
termined to Blow Up the
Crematory.
Fifteen Men Arrested for Leaving
Loads of Garbage on the
Oity's Dumps.

Chief Food. Meat Milk and Brandy In
spector and Prevention of Garbage Dunn p
ing Dockery had hard time of it yester-
day and last night all on account of the
determination of a few men to violate the
city ordinances. He was ably second ed
by Meat Inspector Davis, Captain Spill
lane. Sergeant McManus and officers
Deeiey, Hurley. Chase, Kogel, Dumps and
Madden. The trouble originated at the
city garbage crematory on account of the
authorities of the crematory charging 20
cents cubic yard for having refuse
cremated brought there by garbage men.
There was a conference held yesterday
at the City Hail between O'Brien,
Godchaux, Dockery and the heads of the
Police Department TO determine what
should be done in the case. Dockery was
ordered 10 proceed and see that ell gar
bage should be properly cremated, and
not allow anything to be left on the city s
dumps rs was heretofore done. After the
order had been giveR the police promised
TO give any aid that should be called for.
As the time came for the garbage men
to appear trouble was looked for by the
authorities. 1t came, but it was not
serious. When some of of men drove up
the wagon was measured and the sched-
uleu prlCS DuL LIE men T0IuS6Q anu
turned and drove their wagons to the
dumps and there left their loads. They
were promptly placed under arrest and
taken TO the Potrero police station. Those
who were arrested are: A. Gambruni, f.
Deluxe, G.. 3. Sura, J. B. Rodgers, J.
Camill', L. SIgoli, G. D. Martini, R. A
Joseph, E. Sigoni, j. Quarrel, A. Davoli,
A Acoli, f. Surrae, G. Marten and B. j.
Gambol.
The garbage men had been collected in
groups during most OF the day, but no
action was taken by them. However, the
authorities are little bit in doubt as to
whether or not some load might not con-
tain small bomb, which would
leave the crematory on top of Telegraph
Hill. All last night the country was
patroled by Dockery and his assistants
and the police.
Dcckery said last evening, II have been
put here to enforce the order, which states
that no eal bage shall be placed upon the
public dumps, and [ intend to carry out
that order. There is more sickness in this
community than in ali the rest of the city
combined, and it is time that it is stopped

their loads outside, and will be ably as

proceed to raise the price with their GUS
TONERS and pay the rate charged by the
crematory people. No serious trouble is
longer expected unless some one of the
men become des perate and blow UP he

Judge Davis and Justice of the Peace Henry
OF Sacramento occupied seats on the bench
beside Judge Campbel yesterday and seemed
deeply interested in the way in which the
whiskered iurist dispensed justice. The case

poker was the chief attraction, and sfter
bearing the evidence OF the arresting officer
Judge Campbell decided that he did not know
the game and the other two jurists concurred
in the dismissal of the case.

The Sun and the Doctor.

A physician writing in The Hos
rital says: Where the sun does not
go, there goes the doctor. All sorts
OF diseases, from consumption down
are mitigated or cured by sunliIht
and pure air. Watch for the sun, for
life and health dwell in the suns
beams; ana when it is shining open
every window in the house until it
goes down again. There is every
reason to believe that the germs OF
such diseases as scarlet fever, diph-
liberia. typhoid fever, and other such
deadly enemies, are entirely de stroy-
ed by strong sunlight. Not only,
however, has the sun the power of
making germs die, but it is equally
endowed with the potency Of making
men live. Let every man and woman
make sure that not only themselves,
but also their children and their SER
wants snail have the fullest opportun-
tiles of taking in unlimited quaint
ties Of the inexpensive but life-giv-
ing sunshine.

SHEDS MS SKIN.
Granite County Man Who Gets O New
Covering Once Q Year.

John III. Price of Granite has shed
his epidermis on the oath of every
July In his life. His case has been
called to the attention of many ply
sicians, but none can account for ii.
This year Price came to Butte for
his annual moulting. Sunday morn
ing's Standard says:
John III. Price was promptly on
time with the preliminaries to his
annual skin shedding yesterday, and
late last night the cuticle of his en-
tire body was becoming loose.
Price lives at 35 West Copper Street.
and, In anticipation of the remark
able annual event, which has never
In Al years failed to come between l
and 5 O'Clock in the afternoon of
July "a, he quit work a few days
ago. About 1 O'Clock yesterday
afternoon he began feeling badly
and went to bed. In a few hours he
became very dizzy and suffered from
nausea and became very sick. For
a time he was unconscious and his
temperature ran high. DR.. Bernheim
was summoned and attended Price,
but he had very little to say about
the case. Price was also attended
by his wife, who, knowing his needs,
rubbed his body violently, while the
congestion of the blood in the skin
was taking place and, when he was
seen about S O'Clock last evening by
a Standard reporter, Price had
passed what he called the danger
line and was beginning to recover
from his sickness.
The skin on the body was dry and
was beginning to loosen on the soles
of his feet and he said it was separat-
ing from the new skin which was
forming all over his body and that
by this morning he would be ready
to throw off the whole shell. In
describing his sickness which pre-
cedes the shedding Mr.. Price said his
first feelings were general depressing
pains, followed by dizziness, nausea,
and unconsciousness, then q forced,
straining effort, succeeded by a tick
ity, and then the illness is over and
he can feel the old skin loosening
from the new all over his body.
After few days he is ready to go
to work agaid in his new coat, but
sometimes his feet remain SO tender
that he is compelled to wear the old
skin for moccasins for several days.
The peculiar freak of nature has puz-
zled doctors from all parts of the
country and no one has been able to
give reasonable theory to account
for it.

the matter in such shape that there

1t has dawned upon the senate
that Montana has one of the best
teams in that body. Senators Man.
and Carter are recognized as leaders
on the floor and if any Information
is desired In regard to public lands
or the laws relating to the same Sen
ator Carter is sought as the source
from which reliable information can
be secured. If it is information In re-
mining or wool, Senator Mantle is
called upon. These men have been
identified with the west so long and
have been SO intimately connected
with it's development that they are
perfect encyclopedias of knowledge
upon every subject which pertains
to the west. They are in perfect
accord and if one be absent from the
chamber he knows full well that his
lcolleague is on the ground and will
protect the interests of Montana and
her people.
Senator Carter having supported
Major Mckinley, naturally has the
dispensation of the federal pa tronage
This il an enormous task, but one
which he is performing cheerfully and
successfully. During the early days
of the administration ex-senator
Sanders and Power, and Hon. o. F
Goddard sought to influence ant
shape these matters; but the slat,
made by this coterie and the mum
erous recommendations filed by then
failed to go through and the letters
! eulogistic of those named for th'
various positions, are slumberine
amongst the archives of various de
partments. So far as discovered NJ
attention has been paid to their in
dorsements or recommendations, Il
being conceded that Senator Carter
is entitled to distribute the patron
age.

the administration, in fact during
Inauguration week, informed Presi

. consistently ask any favors in an,
: way relating to federal patronage
