to show that Miss Doherty was at work

It was conceded by the plaintiff n
her witnesses hat the girl assisted at
waiting on table. but the effort Of de-
PENDANTS attorneys TO show by their

Those who have improvements have the
first claim to a deed for the lots on
which their buildings stand or where
improvements have been made. and the
size of lot which can be claimed by one
individual is 56x150 feet. Each of such
lots is divided into two with a IS front

Ex-state Senator Browne Says Silver
Sentiment Is Dying Out.
Idaho is enjoying a very fair de-
gree of prosperity" said ex-State SEN
ator R. S. Browne of that state to a
Washington Post reporter.
I'VE possess a governor whose chief
idiosyncrasy runs to leave out neckties
from his costume, but, aside from that
little popularity, there isn't much room
for complaint. However, [ am free to
predict that the Republican party will
elect a governor Of its own at no dis
tant day, for it is a certainty that
sooner or later the combine that is now
in power through fusion will go to
pieces. My belief is that the time is
not very distant. There is not near so
strong a free silver sentiment in our
state as there was last year, and if
the election were to be held now the
Mckinley ticket would get far bigger
vote than in 1886. By 1900 it would not
surprise me if the free silver issue We're
not in the nature of a Renaissance,
even in Idaho.
Our stockmen and sheep growers are
very prosperous, especially the latter.
Nobody who has q flock wants to sell,
but there is a strong demand for sheep
in every part of the northwest"

A marriage ceremony took place at
the Imperial theatre in Anaconda Sat
urday night. The principal parties who
contributed to the show were Burnie
Briggs, a young waiter, and Ollie
Knight, formerly Mrs. Johns, a di-

and two other children. The ceremony
was performed by Judge Laurandeau
in blaze of red lights.
Among those who returned TO Great
Falls from the country through which

drawing pay.
The Fergus County Argus says that
William Wallace Washburn, for many
years a resident of Fergus county, and
for nearly ten years past variously
employed along the Great Falls 6 Lew
iston stage route, died at Stanford on
Tuesday. Mr.. Wallace, who was more
generally known as Whisky Bill, :"
having been a hard drinker until a few
years ago, left Colonel J. A. Wallis
Tuesday morning to walk to Stamford
distance OF one mile, and some time
later was found at the side of the road
in a dying condition, though con-
scious. A stroke of paralysis is
thought to have been the cause and he
died soon after being taken to town.
He was member of the famous fam
lily Of Washburns which has furnished
so many brilliant men in war and peace
during the last So years. He was
veteran of the Mexican war and about
20 years of age.
John Hammond, the veteran driver
of the Blackfoot stage, had a narrow
escape from fatal accident Saturday
morning, and he will never come any
closer to death and escape. says the
Anaconda Standard. He had started
up the canyon from Bonner on his reg
ular trip and was driving down the
steep grade just above the town, where
the Biackfoot company's big log pond
IS situated, when his stage slid on the
icy road and went over the embank-
ment, taking horses, driver and load
with it. Down the bank the outfit
rolled and it seemed as if it would
surely land in the river. Fortunately
there was big pine tree in the path
Of the rolling stage, and about ten feet
from the water the whole outfit hung
Up on this tree and was saved With
the assistance of another team the
stage was dragged back to the road
and righted without much trouble.

at Augusta by a deputy sheriff from

Of insanity. 1t is said by Augusta peo-
pie that the Johnson boys have been
insane for a number of years and in
fact insanity is hereditary IN their fam
lily. Their madness has manifested it
self during the past year in acts of
righteousness, which have caused the
neighborhood to finally resort to means
of self-protection. The three brothers

own about 1000 head of cattle. They
have, it is said, given the neighbors
no end of trouble by poisoning cattle
and horses and TIN eatening them with
shotguns. and on one or two occasions
actually making assaults

The Rev. DR.. Houghton's Literary
Work.

New York Commercial Advertiser:
Many of the writer's of the career OF
the late Rev. George H. Houghton,
rector of the famous Little Church
Around the Corner" neglected to bring
out certain interesting facts concerning
the literary side of the life of the ven
cradle clergyman. Early in the 40s,
DR.. Houghton. and George H. Moore,
then seniors in the New York univer-
sity, got out a monthly paper called
the Iris, or Literary Messenger, to
which Taylor Lewis, the Greek scholar;
Loomis, the astronomer; William AL
len Butler, then a collegian; Erastus
c. Benedict, the lawyer, and Alfred
Wheeler contributed. The paper lived
one year. Mr.. Houghton contributed
some verse to his paper, and was high
ly complimented for his work in that
line. DR.. Houghton's love for litera-
ture followed him through life. He
lived in an atmosphere of books, PAM
phlets and papers in the second story
of his big brown stone home, adjoining
the church. He was happy when he
could don his time-honored skull cap
and his dressing gown, and shut him
self up among his books.

should be applied in some way for the
permanent benefit of these institutions,
the special form of which is left entirely
