Sunday morning preached his first
sermon in the Presbyterian pulpit,

Saturday, September 18th, a man
hired a horse and saddle from the
Dark Horse Livery stable to ride to
the Hobson ranch ON Mcdonald
creek, but evidently changed his mind
for the horse and accoutrements are
now In the hands of Sheriff Clary of
Choteau county. Mr.. Barnes. pro-
prietor of the stable, attended the
Democratic state convention and
when bomeward bound on the Ben
ton coach, noted a horse picketed
near the south end of the bridge at
Benton which, as he remarked at the
time, "would make a good mate for
that horse of mine" Upon reaching
home he learned that his horse was
gone and placed thecasein the hands
of Sheriff Waite. The man who
rented the horse wa unknown and
the warrant was issued for John
Doe. Sheriff Clary found the horse
picketed as Mr.. Barnes described, and
the saddle lying near, but no trace
can be found of HI thief.

He camped ON the creek bank in
the ear of Mackey's blacksmith shop
and during the night a crowd OF
toughs compelled him to put out his
camp fire and prevented him from
getting a meal. using threatening and
abusive language. Mr.. Geiger. later
in the evening. made a close connec-
ton with his Winchester and gave the
leader of the gang to understand that
if he came near the wagon he would
be a corpse. Several attempts were
made during the evening to stampede
his horses out were unsuccessful. Mr..
Geiger's home is near Libbey, where
he has some valuable mining proper
