An Elisor Appointed by the Court May
Mt Arrest Coroner.
To the Editor of the Standard:
Can a constable make an arrest with
papers made out from a justice court
on a coroner? II. X. CAMPBELL.
Qugley. Mont, Dec. "A.
Prominent lawyers think that n con-
stable cannot arrest a coroner. The fol-
lowing section of the political code
bears on the question:
Section 440-Processes or orders in
an action or proceeding, may be exc
cuted by a person residing in the
county designated by the court or judge
thereof, and denominated an elisor, in
the following cases:
"First-When the sheriff and coroner
are both parties.
'Second-When either of these officers
is party. and the process Is against
the other; and,
"Third-When either of these officers
is a party and there is vacancy in
the office of the other, or when it ap-
pears by affidavit to the satisfaction of
the court in which the proceeding is
pending, or the Judge thereof, that both
of these officers are disqualified. or by
reason of any bias, prejudice or other
cause, would not act promptly or inn
partially. When process is delivered to
an eliSor he must execute similar pro-
cess. The court or judge may at any
time on it's own motion appoint an
eliSor."

Complicated Relations Caused by the
MarrisEc of Maine Widow.

1t isn't every woman who can be an
aunt to her last husband and an aunt
to all her children. as well as being a
niece to her two former husbands. This
is the position which Mrs. Abigail Ian

ties aforementioned she is an aunt to
her last husbands children who were
born to his former wife. Her children
are not only cousins to their mother.
but double cousins to one another. and
great uncles and aunts and second

fathers.
Mrs HERMAN has been married

back in the '30's she changed her name
from Lancaster to Hartman, taking
Captain keyes Hartman for her hus-
band. He was lost overheard at sea
after she had presented him with seven
healthy children. Then after two years
of widowhood. she was married to jew
EFT Hartman, brother of her first
husband, and had eight children. all
of whom lived to grow up. Jewett
Hartman died in 1875 and his widow
went to care for the sick wife of her
husbands nephew Captain James Har-
riman. After the death of his wife
Captain James paid court to the wo-
man who. by marriage, was his two
fold aunt She declined the honor or

age is able to milk cows and do house

opened a four-nights engagement at
the Union Family theater last evening
to a fairly good house. The play is pre-
scented by the stock company, and is in
the nature of a musical extravaganza,
being filled with songs, dances and
funny jokes. The performers are all
attired in highly-colored Indian cos
tune and make a handsome picture
upon the stage. The three Albions, an
excellent combination of acrobats, do
a high-class speciality during the per-

The minstrel performance at the Park

strels was the occasion of a crowded
house. The entertainment presented
was refined, fresh and sparkling. The
audience was kept in the most enjoy
able humor during the entire evening
The programme contained many enjoy
able numbers, including numerous old
time specialties and southern melodies,
among the latter being "Suwanee RiV-
err" "Old Kentucky Home" and Garry
Me Back to Old Virginia" The COM
pany has three women who are sweet
singers and clever speciality artists. The
first part was made up of the usual
jokes and songs and ballads and Choir
uses, and in which the entire company
appeared. Jack NJ. Oliver and Hally
Gillian, the comedians, told some real
ly funny gags. and the singing was
creditable. The second part was re-
plete with musical selections, songs,
dances and plantation melodies. An IN
strumental duet by Brown and Hughes
was well played and a singing and dane
ing sketch by the Gillams. Harry and
Miss Bessie captured the house. Their
dancing was exceedingly clever. and
both possess excellent voices and their
witticisms We're fresh and crisp. The
