me case of the state of Montana
against Frank Hazel and Ella Hazel
for disturbance OF the peace was
called before Judge Nj NJ Donoghue
last evening. 1t appears from the evil
dence introduced in the case that Mr.
and Mrs. Dalton lived in one side of a
house in Carol and that the defendants
lived IN the other, that Mr. and Mrs
Dalton had no family that the defend
ants had n family of five children. rang
ing in age from | to IL years; that Mr.
Dalton sometimes slept in the day and
ihat the children of the defendants dis
turbed his peaceful slumbers; that the
defendant, Frank Hazel is Il German
and working man at the smelters:
that the rooms in which he lived are
not entirely covered With carpets and
that in coming into the house with
heavy shoes he disturbed the peace and
quiet of Dalton, in addition to the
noise made by the heavy shoes, ii was
also alleged that there was considerable
noise of an unusual nature made by
the defendants in their section Of the
house as II an earthquake or something
OF that Kind We're in progress. especial
~ so upon last Christmas eve when the
defendants procured a keg Of beer and
proceeded To celebrate the evening ac-
cofdinE to the approved fashion.
1t also developed in The testimony
that the children of the defendants. the
male portion, organized band of the
rising population of Carol and pro-
ceeded To apply vile and opprobrious
names Ia Mrs. Dalton. This part of the
testimony the children denied 1t
seemed that both parties wanted the
whole house, and that probably is the
source from which all Of the trouble
between the two families originated
The case was submitted without argu-
ment, and the court said that he had
no doubt from the evidence that there
had been "A family disturbance down in
the peaceful city of Carol, but that
the evidence was not sufficient to war
rant him in finding the defendants
guilty, but that he would admonish
them that If either of the parties ap-
peared in court again for disturbance
he would fine them the limit: that
he believed both parties We're equally
guilty. Col. r. O'Leary and Benjamin
4. Maiden appeared as counsel for the
defendants, and Assistant County At

Little Richard Austin Slipped on
the Icy Pavement.
UNAT TENDED MANY DAYS
Did Not Realize That His Arm Was
Fractured - Suffered Great Pain.
Two Cases of Painful But
Not Serious Burning.

"A very sad case is that which reached
st. AIMS hospital yesterday. A boy
named Richard Austin. is years of age.
on Monday, Jan. ;, slipped on the icy
pavement in front of the city hall. The
boy fell hard, but at the time he did
not realize that he was seriously in
Jured. He went TO the place where he
is employed as usual. and kept on
working. His arm, on which he had
struck, panied him more and more each
day until finally he was compelled To
quit work
Some one discovered that the how
was in bad shape and recommended
that he be taken to the hospital. This
was done and the hospital surgeon
found that his arm was broken near
the elbow. The doctor set the bone and
made the lad comfortable.
Young Austin is very unfortunate
boy. His mother died some years ago
and his father deserted him six years
ago, since which time the little fellow
has been making his own living. AT the
time of his injury he was engaged in

no state in the union could this sport

! Montana, where the winters are long
and everything ready TO hand 10 make
polo an established winter pastime
In nearly all Of the cities of the East
and the North polo is as firmly fixed
| for winter as is baseball for summer
and football for fall. The skaters of
| Butte have already organized a polo
team and they have promised to do
everything in their power to make the
sport so in this city. J. T. O'Brien,
who has charge Of the building OF the
rink at the Athletic park has taken
the matter in hand, and he says that
there are at least 40 or 80 skaters in
Anaconda who would make good polo
players. All that is necessary is that
the player be strong, steady skater,
with the ability to stop and stare
quickly. A polo team generally consists
of seven players, and it is Mr.. O'Briens
object to form four or five teams, and
play for the championship OF the city.
and to pit the best team against out
side towns.

ana he says that the poio enthusiasts
of that city are tickled over the news
that Anaconda is also to nave q pole
team, and they have promised that If
the organization in this city goes
through, there will be no dearth of
matches, so far as they are concerned
Mr.. O'Brien says that while in Butte
he visited the various skating Kinks and
at each of them crowds of people were
enjoying the healthfu exercise ola
men and women brought their children
to the ice and put skates on them. aud
seemed to enjoy it as much as anyone.
As soon as everything is in readiness

both for exhibitions and for match
races. If the present enthusiasm over
the sport is kept up, Anaconda will

THINK 1T is JUST.
Majority Of the People believe That
Durrant Merited His Punishment.

faaiofiS u the Iebpie BeIeNe Ihat
Durrnnt Merited His Punishment.
Nothing has aroused so much inter-
est in a case, other than a local one,
as has the hanging of Theodore Dur
rant. This is due in part to the fact
that one of his victims, Blanche La
mont. was a Montana girl. As soon as
the news of Durrant's death was re-
ceiVed the Standard posted the fact on
its bulletin boards, and soon crowds
We're attracted TO those places.
The general sentiment seemed to be
that Durrants punishment was fitted
to the crime. and that the execution
was just one. Many expressed the
opinion that the murderer should have
been hanged long ago Others of more
sympathetic natures thought that while
the evidence was only circumstInl.aI
the sentence should have been COM
muted to a life term i'm prison The
great majority of those who expressed
themselves, however, were satisfied
that hanging was the proper way TO rid
society of such a man.
