-"The Cuban Spy" a comedy drama
of considerable merit, was rendered in
excellent style by home talent at the Ar
mory last Friday evening, the very large
audience present being delightfully."- en-
tertained. Every member ofthe troupe
acted like star, and so perfectly had the
rehearsels fitted them that not a single
"brealI" was made in the entire perform
ance. 1t was the best amateur show the
town has ever had, and it was second to
none of the travelling troupes that have
visited the place. The Woman's Relief
Corps, under whose auspices the play
was given netted handsome sum from
the proceeds. The performance was re-
peated by request on Saturday evening.

mon creek mill breaking the saw In
pieces, but, fortunately, doing no bodily
harm to anyone there. A few days later,
and on the night Mr.. Wheeler's planning
mill at Endeavor was burned, the black
smith shop at the Salmon creek mills was
burned. Had it not been a wet night the
fire might have been of much greater ex-
tent. And last of all, and fearfullest of
all, the tragedy there on Saturday. On
the same day and at about the same time
quite a serious accident, and one that
might have ended as tragically, occurred
at Buck Mills, two miles up the creek
| from Kellettville. The mill had stopped
running for few minutes, and the of
bearer walked over aud sat down, to
talk with the slasher moment, on the
sasher- table, seating himself just over
the saw which is operated by a lever
worked by the foot when used for cut
ting or ''slashing." The mill started up
again and tho slasher jumped down from
where he was sittiug to look after some
thing that needed his attention. AS he
did so he stumbled or slipped and acci-
dently struck the lever that elevates the
slasher, and the saw came up infiictiBg
a wound i'm the hip Of the other man who
still sat there, not nearly so serious as il
might easily have been. Then the run
away car on the Hickory Valley II. r.,
from McDonalds to the mill then the
runaway from the summit to Ross Run;
and last week another wreck over on the
same end of the road. And, too, the
burning Of the planning mill at Endeav.
or. already referred to. Quite a run o
accidents in close proximity of time and
place, surely.

Dowden of Helena, who has charge of
the Children's Home society in this
state also offered to take the child and
find ii good home. but she wished to
examine it first, and will return from
Helena next Friday for that purpose.
1t is very likely that the child will be
given to Mrs. Dowden, as her society
requires only a fee of $50, for which il

keep a constant watch over IL.
Among the applicants for county aid
yesterday was George Day, the father
of the more or less noted Day family.
He wrote a letter to Auditor Davies,
which was delivered by his son Jack,
asking for So with which to pay a
months room rent. He said in his let
ter that he and four of his sons had oc-
cupied one room in woodshed all Win
ter and that he and two of the boys had
to sleep on the floor. He said he was
very sick and had received notice to va
cate the room, but could raise no
money TO pay rent elsewhere. He got
an order for So.

the commissioners concluded that the

constable arrested. The commissioners
had previously sent Griffith to Judge
Laurandeau's court 10 swear out war

declined TO issue il without an order
from the county attorney. Mr.. Con-
molly promised the commissioners to

story told by Griffith. he has been &C

Agnes Richards, young Swede
woman, lost a pair of scissors. and she
invoked the aid of the law to recover
them. They We're only Il small pair,
but they cost as much trouble ard ex-
pense in getting them back as II they
had been large pair and worth more
than two bits. She first called at the
county attorneys office yesterday and
wanted some woman arrested on sus-
picion of having appropriated the scis-
sors but the county attorney was not
there and someone directed her to JUS
tice Traps court. In the afternoon
she returned and found Mr.. Connolly
in the attorneys office.
Il got them, she said, holding the
scissors out to him.
Yes? Where did YOU get them in
quired Mr. Connolly.
Il got them on the search warrant
What search warrant
Judge Trap gave it and | found
the scissors in the bottom of her
trunk"

ing attorney asked, unable to exactly
understand what the woman was talk
ing about.

What do you want her arrested
for?"
well. it cost me two dollars eighty

little cheap measly pair of scissors"
Yes; il cost me two dollar eighty
and | want her arrested
Were they stolen from YOU"
Il don't know: | find ii in her trunk
and ii cost me two dollar eighty"
Well you had better go back to the
court where you got your search war
rant" said Mr.. Connolly That little
pair of scissors of yours has probably
cost the county $40 already, and we
can't have anyone arrested on such "A
statement"
Agnes left the Office disappointed. as
she had evidently expected the other
woman to be thrown into Jail instantly.
