May her soul rest in peace.

They have smoothed the green turf DER

But oh, we believe that thou dost not forget
To be around US though hid from our sight,
That the love OF thy spirit Is true To US yet,
Though our own may be- shrouded In
night. j.

The Bird Questionable question OF
increasing the stock Of partridges in Mary
land, whether by closing the sport Of hunt
ing birds Tor a year or two or by other
means, still agitates the gunners. Most OF
them are reasonable about the matter and
all want TO do what is best. Mr.. George ID.
Penniman, president Of the Maryland State
Game and Fish Protective Association, has
recently given his views on this subject In
lengthy and able article.
Mr.. Penniman doubts the great efficacy Of
preserving the birds by closed season, and
that It's only effect would be that a certain
number OF birds would not be killed next
fall by sportsmen who would obey the law,
while many birds would be killed in spite OF
the closed season. He attributes the present
scarcity OF birds in this State to the effect Of
snow storms, their destruction by hawks,
&C., and strongly advises farmers and others
interested 10 provide shelter and TODD for the
birds during the winter.

quest will subject the teacher TO dismissal
by the School Board.

FALSE PRETENSES.
That Is the Charge Under Which Joe
O'Donnel1 Is in Jail.

That Is the Charge Under Which Joe
O'Donnell Is in Jail.
Joe O'Donnell is in Jail charged with
obtaining goods under false pretenses.
He was arrested yesterday afternoon
by Officer Cantwell. 1t develops that
during the past eight or ten weeks,
O'Donell has victimized at least three
firms out of goods to the value of $685.
So. His scheme was to represent himself
as a miner and on this representation
he secured the goods. There is gem
uine Joe O'Donnell in this city and he
is a miner. But he is not the man who
is in Jail. The prisoner, it is said, secur-
ed 800 worth of goods from Hen
nessy's store, 1885 from Siegers. and
$25 from Connell's. Those are all that
have been heard from to date, possibly
there are others. Yesterday, officers ac-
companied an employee of Connell's
store on a tour of the pawn shops and
in downtown three ball concern they
found new overcoat and pair of
long legged boots, the property of Con-
nelfs store. The ticket showed that
they had been hypothecated under the
name Of Stark. They were identified as
the goods sold to O'Donnell, and are
now at the police station. Detectives
are searching the city for goods Sc
cured by O'Donnell from the other
stores.

A Butte Man Writes to Salt Lake for
Prntactinn

Protection.
Special Dispatch to the Standard
Salt Lake. Utah, Jan. 23-Dr T. B.
Beatty of this city is in receipt of a COM
munication from Edward Salmon for
merly of this city. but now of Butte, in
which Salmon implores the doctor to pro-
teet him from the Vaccinations of sup
posed enemies. For some time past Sal
mon has suffered with periodical attacks
of insanity, and at such times he believes
that various persons are prosecuting him.
In his letter to DIR. Beatty he says
1.-The same parties, which you know,
and who have followed me in Butte, are
making life unbearable to me once more
l wish your Masonic friend would try to
protect me, or else he goes gack on all his
obligations taken by oath as a Mason. l
wish you would do what you can to have
that stopped, or send me the name of
those people and 7 assure you that 1 will
stop them very quick. If it was not for
them, l would get along very nicely and
it seems TO be too bad that a young man
from a good family cannot be left to
choose the right path and not be obliged
to do as woman and man that he has
no desire to know force him to do You
have acknowledged to me. and also to
your friend, that you know of this going
on for two years off and on Why not
help me in the matter, dear doctor, and l
will be grateful to you all my llfe''
DIR. Beatty says that he has no recollec-
ton of ever having talked to Salmon, and
that he is in perfect ignorance of the mat
ter referred to in his letter.

ana they rang for drink and he wait
ed on them several times. The man
who came in with her left soon and an
other man took his place: Harrison did
not know him, but saw him sit on Mrs
Rays lap, and then he got up and went
out. After Mrs. Ray made the row
about the loss of her watch, Harrison
went up to the Little Chief saloon and
there saw the man again and accused
MIN OF having stolen the watch. The
unknown man confessed and asked
harrison If he wanted to buy the
watch. Harrison said he did not and
then asked If the watch had been pawn
ed and the man said it had not, but
had 1t hidden, and he then told Harri-
son where 1t was. Harrison told no.
body about it until the police came to
arrest him, and then he told them
where the watch was, as he thought
that would settle the matter,
Mr.. Gilchrist asked the defendant #
he stole the watch, and Harrison said
he never took nothing from nobody"
and never laid hands on Mrs Ray, be-
cause he did not know her
On cross-examination by Mr.. Con-
molly, the defendant said he did not
take the watch from it's hiding place,
because it was none of his business, al
though he told the unknown man at The
time that the whole crowd in the sa-
loon would be arrested. He did not
say anything to the officers about It
until some time after his arrest He
said he did not think about it at once.
Harrison got badly mixed up in his
testimony. He said he left the man at
the Little Chief saloon and intended to
go down to Meyers saloon and inform
Mrs. Ray, so that she could go right
up and see him, and few minutes
later, when asked why he did not at
once inform the officers when he found
them at the saloon on his return, be
said because the man had left the Lit
tie Chief and gone up street to a
gambling house. When pressed for the
name of the gambling house, he chang
ed his testimony again and said he
saw the man go up Main street.
Harrison's testimony concluded the
evidence, and Chief Deputy County At
torney Stivers opened the arguments
for the state and was followed by Mr..
Gilchrist for the defense, County At
torney Connolly closing for the state.
The arguments We're very short and
the case was given to the jury shortly
after S o'clock.
The jury was out about an hour ard
reported that they had reached a YER
dict about 6:15 o'clock, but it was some
time after that before the Judge and
attorneys were found. After the YER
dict had been rendered, Harrison's at
torney asked for stay of proceedings
which was granted. The jury left the
punishment to be fixed by the court
and no time for passing sentence was
fixed. The punishment is from one to
~ years in the penitentiary.
