WANTS TO BORROW CASH
A. o. n. Petitions for Permission
to Mortgage Its Property.
TO ADD ANOTHER STORY
Jan verkin Files a Petition to Have His
Name Changed to That of John
Pozega. His True Name-Er-
ror in the Papers.

A petition was filed yesterday in the
district our by Division No. /. Ancient
Order of Hibernians of Anaconda, for
permission to mortgage its property
for 81, 900 for the purpose of making
certain improvements. The petition
sets forth hat the A. o. ii. is a benevo-
lent corporation organized and existing
under the laws of Montana, and that
Michael McDevitt. John Caffrey.
John Fogarty. John Gibbons and
Thomas Moriarity are its trustees. The
A. o. H. is the owner of lots l and > in
block % in the city of Anaconda. In
1895 the petitioners obtained permission
from the court to mortgage the prem
ises for a sum not to exceed $4,000 for
the purpose of erecting a building on
the lots. and that in pursuance of said
order the petitioners did borrow 5000
and erected a good and substantial one
story brick building. The principal and
interest on the sum has been paid.
The petitioners are now DESTROYS Of
charging the said building by adding
another story and by extending the
building 20 the alley. The petitioners
have not sufficient money wherewith to
enlarge said building or make the i'm
~provements. Therefore the court is
asked to grant permission to the A. O.
H. to mortgage its property for So, 900
with interest not to exceed 10 per cent.
per annum, for a time not exceeding
five years.
Judge Brantly made an order setting
the petition for hearing Aug. l at .
O'Clock p. M, and for its publication as
required by law.
A petition was yesterday filed in the
district court by John Pozega asking
that he be permitted to change his
name from Jan Nerkin, the name ap-
pearing ON his naturalization papers.
The petition recltes hat at all times
prior to Aug. 81, 1889, the petitioner was
known and called by the name of John
Pozega, which was in fact his true and
full name. On Aug. 81. 1889, in the dis
trict court the petitioner declared his
intention of becoming a citizen Of the
United States, which declaration was
made in writing. and his name appeared
therein as Jan Verkin by mistake. He
asks to lave the name changed to John
Pozega, his true name. He is a native
of Austria.

The Fourth street Main will BE Compile
ted within a Week.

]. A. Hasley. the contractor who is
constructing the main sewer on Fourth
street, expects to a his work COM
pleted by the end of the present week,
or by the fore part of next week at the
outside. The work on this sewer has
been pushed along vigorously and its
early completion is a matter for con-
graduation, as the street, during the
period of constructions, has been in a
badly torn up condition.
AS soon as the Fourth street main
is completed the people living south of
that street may connect with it, and it
is probable that most of the improve
ment districts will be completed before
winter. A petition is being circulated
among property owners of that section
of the city, asking the council for the
establishment of an improvement dis
trict in the alley between Maple and
Elm streets. This is the district
against the establishment of which a
remonstrance was presented to the
council at its last meeting. The coun-

STOCK LAW VIOLATION.
James Il. Collier Fined $50 for Failing to
Brand His Horses.


J.. w. Collins, state stock inspector.
yesterday morning arrested James =.
Collier for violating the stock law pro-
viding for the proper branding of
horses. Collier was found on Mill creek
with a band of 81 horses, having just
come from Idaho. The law resuires
that when any drove of SIrses is
brought into any county of this state
from any other state or territory tina
they shall be branded with a uniform
brand called a roa brand. In the
drove Collier had there were 10 differ
emf brands
Collier was brought before Judge
Kennedy on complaint of County At
torney Trippet. He pleaded guilty to
the charge and the court assessed a
fine of $50 and costs. which he paid.
Collier had no knowledge that there
was any law of the kind on the statute
books and probably had no intention OF
violating any of the laws provisions.
Collier is engaged in buying and SELL
ing horses n was on his way to the
northern part of the state.
